If you need a bit more space, I've been using a couple 4Tb Western Digital "My Passport" drives for the last couple years with no problems. They go for about $99 on Amazon.

I have the 2nd edition of the Danny Goodman thing: it reads like an exercise in being as long-winded as possible: occasionally I look up something in it so I know what to avoid when I prepare handouts for kids in my school. I don't know about the kids of today, but Danny Goodman's book helped me gr...

Windows XP is no longer supported as of v8.2 per this link: https://livecode.com/tag/support/

Maybe a bit too far to get a regular group going, but it would be nice to meet some LiveCoders. Anybody interested in HOPE2020 (Hackers on Planet Earth conference) taking place July 31 - Aug 2 at St. Johns University in Queens? I don't see a schedule just yet, but there's always a ton of great talks...

Orange County here, about an hour north west of Manhattan. If you get something going, do post about it here.

Do you have the internet permission selected in your standalone settings?

This bug still exists in the latest 9.5 . The workaround still works, but it would be nice to see this very old bug squashed.

Organic grass roots comments like the ones we see following such articles are far more powerful than any message conveyed by having company shills trolling blogs I agree. It was a 2012 google search for "Why did hypercard die?" that lead me to LiveCode via the comment section of this article: http:...

Somewhere in these forums is a workaround, but I don't use the Browser widget often enough to have taken note of the solution. There is a shell script here: http://forums.livecode.com/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=30355&p=161872&hilit=linux+browser+widget+64+bit#p161872 I am not on a linux machine at the mo...

Thanks for this. Posted the day after Bicycle Day too....

(of course I could be quite wrong in this respect, but why do I have the feeling that arrays "die" once
a stack/standalone is shut down?)

Something like DevaWriter is a bit out of my league BUT, you can store an array in a custom property, which may or may not be useful for your needs.

I just tested this in LC 9.02 on Ubuntu 18.04, and it does seem to work as expected without locking the screen. If I lock the screen for visual effect, It does exhibit the behavior your video shows - the buttons also move and not just the object being hidden. If I use lock screen for visual effect i...

Hey bogs, if you don't want it to move the whole card, you can do like this:

I'm pretty sure the CMS you're looking for is RevIgniter. https://revigniter.com/

I think what you are looking for is "middleware", basically you want to move the portion of the code that interacts with the DB to a server side script, so as not to hard code your credentials into the app itself. It seems that this is done most often with PHP, but there is more info and a simple ex...
