First,thanks for the reply. The app folder that was empty was just named jukebox, no .exe or app in the name, No windows reserved folder name either,( had an experience with that problem). It turned out you were right again. There was a substack listed with in there. I deleted it and all should work...

I have been modifying my stack a little, and somewhere along the line I have inadvertently misclicked and added something to my stackfiles that has the caused the app builder to create an empty folder when I try to build it. I evidently click something wrong on the tools pallette. on the standalone ...

I just tried your script in LC and it worked just fine.Thanks. I may go back and see if my old script may work differently if I use a field rather than the message box.
Thanks again.

I will try your advice, first by changing "get" with "put" Heh heh, here is something that I just tried. I made a stack in Rev Studio 4.0 just ti test same btn script and it worked as I had thought it should. So I uninstalled LC restarted ,ran bleachbit and reinstalled LC to eliminate the chance tha...

on mouseup Livecode 9.6 Community I have a little stack in which I need a few (1 to 3) random numbers inserted before some text. I have came up with the following. This is just the initial experiment to generate the needed numbers at random. When I step it through the debugger, it works correctly. C...

Hello again! I have a question concerning backdrops. Every time I open LC, there is a backdrop and I either have to set the backdrop to none in the message box, or go to preferences and click the "Reset Default settings. The only options I see concerning backdrops in preferences is to choose which c...

I only just now saw your post Jaque.
Thank you Jaque. You've read my mind. That was the next issue I was going to deal with. Those fields I have will now be a lot more narrow!

Thanks to all of you!! I will try all of your methods out.And yes, setting the defaultfolder does seem useless if I get these to work
Thanks again.

The music player I am working on has a limitation that I cannot seem to work around. In the playlist it will only play the music from the defaultfolder, so I cannot mix various artists in the playlist as the defaultfolder changes from artist to artist. I've made some spectacularly awful attempts so ...

I thank you both for the your help with this. And I really appreciate your album stack jmk. I'm afraid it was a little too far over my head at this time, but I intend to use it to learn about callbacks, as I know nothing about them yet. I did use KI did use klaus's suggestion and went with the plays...

I have a list field with music files in it. I have a button with the following script that I want to start the player at line 1 and play everything in the field one at a time for it's complete duration. Whenever I click the button, only the last line in the list plays. What am I neglecting this time...

Thank you. I tried replacing / with \ with no change. Finally I deleted one of the "&"s int the script and it worked.. set the defaultfolder to the callmusic of this stack &"/"&& (the selectedtext of me)did not work set the defaultfolder to the callmusic of this stack &"/"& (the selectedtext of me) ...

I'm having a problem trying to change the defaultfolder at will. I am certain my problem is glaringly obvious to most of you, but obviously not to me. I'm wondering it it is the fact that I am using a cp for part of the filepath. What I am doing "seems" reasonable but I suppose it is not. My intent ...

That is exactly what I am trying to do.One name at the beginning of each page. 4 names,4 pages.
And your script worked great. Thank you! I read the dictionary ab page. 4 names,4 pages.
And your script worked great. Thank you! Big relief here.

I am trying to remake a stack I once made. It involves printing from a tvar with 4 lines, one name on each line. It works well enough but. I have to go through 3 dialog windows for each one. I feel certain I didn't have to suffer through that on the original stack The original stack and scripts are ...
