Re: The end of XTalk / LiveCode for me
My experience is different. Scrolling a 1000x1200-pixel, 6-column DataGrid on my old Mac (i7/4GHz CPU) is pretty slow. Maybe it would be fast enough on a new Mac, but HTML tables scroll like lightning on my old computer. I can't test DataGrid on my new computer because LC won't launch. Well that's ...

Re: The end of XTalk / LiveCode for me
Thank you, I didn't know about Metadata for text. The feature set of LiveCode is huge (and growing) and there's a lot I don't know about. (I couldn't find Metadata even when searching for that feature, because I didn't know what it was called.) Knowing about metadata sure would have saved me a lot ...

Re: Comparing scripts
Also a good reason to use version control systems like git/github.
Not only can you roll back any version, but using scriptonlystacks/text files, it will show a diff for each incremental version.

Re: Issue with parsing the JSON in livecode
I hope this helps. Bob Bob, the code provided by the OP already takes into account the bearer ID/security by setting the headers, and arguably is more robust since it uses tsNet. It's the JSON output/conversion to array that wasn't handled correctiy. 9 times out of 10, the problem is immediately fi...

Re: Issue with parsing the JSON in livecode
I would suggest setting a breakpoint and inspecting what is in your array. Then you'll see the structure of the array created:
Instead of tDataArray["email"], you need to reference this as tDataArray["data"][1]["email"]- Thu Aug 14, 2025 4:08 pm

Re: MR LOGO Proramming Environment
...the promises of updated IDE for v10 and compiled scripts never will materialise. This sounds ominous. Is it really true? As far as I know, yes, although I of course do not speak for LC Ltd... My understanding was that the selling point for v10 (the new interface) was subsumed into LC Create and ...

Re: MR LOGO Proramming Environment
Just off the top of my head: Speed is definitely an issue for apps that push graphics around for example. Associated with this, a notable deficiency is lack of support for 3D (even just openGL), which almost all other languages support to some extent. Lack of multithreading is another deficiency. Yo...

Re: MR LOGO Proramming Environment
MichaelBluejay is leaving us. I know one language. Does anyone have an example of what some other program does much better than LC? As Richard mentions, Javascript is universally present. Python is another - and probably closer to the LC paradigm than JS is. However you'd need to learn TKinter or s...

Re: LiveCode Create dp-5 released
"From the notes, it looks like they’ve made some solid progress with integration and extension sharing. I guess the release page has more details on what’s changed in dp-5." errrrmm... the current release is DP7 - the big change is that you can now deploy from LC create. I'm not sure I understand w...

Re: The end of XTalk / LiveCode for me
What is your experience with the LC code editor like? Have they made speed improvements since the version I'm used (9.6.3)? Well I'm on an M2 Pro so can’t really say if there is improvement. Performance is fine. If editing long scripts I will often use VS Code as it has many conveniences apart from...

Re: The end of XTalk / LiveCode for me
I wonder how many people are going to pay $100 for alpha software sight-unseen? Rather than an alpha version, think of it as an improved version of LC10 + the ability for early access to LCC. And as of the latest preview of LCC you can use that to deploy apps. Still, the Classic mode works very wel...

Re: The end of XTalk / LiveCode for me
I’ve stopped at LiveCode 10 and now use the Community edition. But if LiveCode Create is officially released (not just a developer preview), I’ll definitely buy it and I’m fine with the 5% revenue share. While LC Create can charitably be called beta (it’s really still alpha as features are still be...

Re: [ ANN ] Release LiveCode 10.0.2 RC-4
As I mentioned in a different post, one solution for teaching/learning/non-profit would be to have linux-only version that can only build for linux and not Mac/Win/Mobile. This would be of no interest to LC's paying clientele as , as LiveCode Create does not appear to have a linux offering and would...

Re: Flipper II 2025 Game
it's how many letters you flip counting from the first (left) char.
Flipping ERITD by 3 will give you IRETD
Flipping ERITD by 4 will give you TIRED (unless I've grossly misunderstood)

Re: Windows 11
Yeah same problem on MacOS, so probably LC's, rather than the OS's, fault. Weirdly and possibly related: Having recently toyed with Linux Mint XFCE running KDE Plasma 5.x desktop (using Community 9.6.3, since LC Create is not available for Linux and my old LC licence has expired), I seem to have a s...
