Thank you! Fundamentally, what's the difference between and, with, &, and &&? I know I sound very basic here but I never understood the difference so I always guess and change if it doesn't work lol.

Ok! To be honest, this sounds very counterproductive, if the goal is to keep the syntax as understandable and compiler "bug-free", then why use apostrophes when apostrophes are the way the compiler (or any other technique LiveCode uses for translating code to computer language) knows stuff are stri...

Hi AGC studios, you are mixing the syntax of SEND and DISPATCH. ... ## All strings and messages you send in quotes! ## Get used to it in your own interest! The engine is getting less forgiving with "sloppy" syntax with every version. ## Believe me, I experienced this several times in the last 20 ye...

Pretty much as the title says. I'm making a mobile game for fun where the player plays as a spaceship and needs to pass all sorts of challenges (the user controls the player using the accelerometer) and the last "boss" level is going through an "asteroid belt" and avoiding getting hit. The asteroids...

Thanks, the problem was with the shutdown handler, so I changed it.

Hi, yes so my code goes something like this: If the text is too big and the text size is above 35 then it will make the text smaller.

I looked at every thread and none of them seemed to have an answer... I hope they fixed it... (running LC 9.6...

Ok, thought it might be better this way... fewer threads... ill move it.

So, I have a new problem... I'm trying to get a contact number using mobileGetContactData mobilePickData But I cannot seem to be able to get the phone number but I can get the name...

That would get out of hand rather quickly, no?

Yes, I am now looking for a way to get the text to break(sorry about the wrong wording, I don't exactly know how to phrase it... the "enter") Not much luck...


Ps. sorry if this wasn't clear, and thanks for answering

Yes, I looked into it and it worked! THANK YOU! If anyone is interested in the code: on putTextIntoField if (the formattedWidth of field "textAreaField" + 30) > the width of field "textAreaField" ---the + 30 was because the text would somtimes overflow half(you would only see half of the last char) ...

Thanks, I will look into it.
