Native Project File vs Compiled App

Hi everyone, Occasionally, when opening a native LC project file I am working on, there may be commands which run at (startup, openStack, etc.) that I may not want to be run. While I realize I can simply comment out such commands or perhaps add a keyDown check, I was wondering if there was a way to ...

Any LC’ers in Central Ohio?

Although I’ve been using LiveCode for several years and have had a lot of fun, I thought it would be even more fun to possibly meet up with other users who might live in the Central Ohio area? If so, say hi :)

Best regards,
Jon :)

Re: Predictive Text...

Hi everyone, Let me see if I can answer everyone’s questions: @Dunbarx - when I selected all the text that was in the text field, I wanted to be able to press the delete key (backspaceKey in LC) in order to clear the contents of the field. Adding the few lines of code Klaus suggested resolved that i...

Re: Predictive Text...

Hi all, First, thanks to everyone who has responded and provided code and/or sample stacks. Between everything, I…think/hope…I have managed to combine elements of the provided stacks into a relatively completed stack which seems to, for the most part work. Here is my adapted code: on keyDown KP put ...

Re: Predictive Text...

Hi Richmond,

Thank you the sample stack! Although it works, could you expand the code so that the list of customers updates accordingly when the user presses the delete/backspace key?

Thank you so much and best regards,
Jon :-)

Predictive Text...

Hi everyone, I have a hidden text field which contains a list of my customers (it’s lengthy!). I have another field where a user types the name of the customer. I’d like my app to display a list of possible customers as the user types the name of the customer. I’d like it to work in the same way as ...

I ask because I’ve tried emailing the developer a couple times but haven...

Re: Drag & Drop?

Hi Bernd,

Thank you for the fix. It now works...IF I drag the text file onto the "Specs" field itself. I want to be able to drag the text file to anywhere on the interface and have this work. Can this be done?

Thank you and best regards,
Jon

Drag & Drop?

Hi everyone, I have a simple stack that I want to be able to drag and drop a text file (and only a text file) from the desktop (or other location) onto the stack interface and have it put the contents of the text file into a text field. Here is my code (which is in the stack script) but it's not wor...

Re: Livecode Create - thoughts?

I paid for my license and have never asked my company to reimburse me nor do I get specifically reimbursed for app development nor has my company has never asked me to build an app for them (it's not even a part of my job description!).

Re: Livecode Create - thoughts?

I reached out to LC for clarification on my situation. As I have only written apps for my co-workers and make no money on them, the plan that would fit my situation is the "App Payments" option. According to LC, I would only have to pay the early developer license. In the event that I start selling...

Re: Livecode Create - thoughts?

Although I may have missed something somewhere, if I haven't, this new pricing model will put me out of "business". I have developed roughly 6-7 apps for my co-workers just to make their lives easier. I have never made a single dollar on any of my apps and I pay for the LC subscription out of my own...
