Re: ChatGPT and LiveCode
"Mostly" it's valid syntax. I haven't attempted to run it, but while it might be legitimate, a "return" from a "command" (not a function) rings like a bell made from reconstituted pork products. I regularly but less commonly use return in commands - it puts data into the result . Maybe I'm a spambo...

Re: ChatGPT and LiveCode
OK guys perhaps it's time to dismount the paranoid pony... Or to rephrase, I perhaps naively give reasonable posts the benefit of the doubt. At the very least, if it is spam, then it's the most interesting and educational spam I've seen ;) For one thing, I learned about A* pathfinding : https://en.w...

Wow, nice shares, thank you!
Couldn't help but notice you have an app watson_for_hotline - this wouldn't be the venerable HotLine would it?

Re: Exporting SVG images?
That is indeed a big piece of work to do 'properly', and I like probably everyone else, have no time to do this. But probably is possible to 'kludge' it a bit. For example, just copying the iconPath data from an svg icon and sticking it in this text in a text file with extension .svg: <?xml version=...

Re: Palettising a main stack.
Best of all, the style property is persistent. Set it once, save it, and that's the mode it'll open in forever. Sure. However sometimes it’s of value to do this conditionally, especially especially when working on the stack. For example, prefixing that statement with if the optionKey is not down th...

Re: SQL Query error when a String has double quote
Please post the code that is causing the error… more than likely this will be a simple fix.

Re: Palettising a main stack.
Well, more complicated than I thought. If your handler is in the stack script, it does not work. The openStack handler fires but nothing happens. But if it is this in the stack script: on mouseUp palette me end mouseUp it work fine if you click on the card window. Craig I’ve always used Set the sty...

is SVG not just a text file? (albeit a specially formatted one?)

No.
I did mention the machine was locked down - so no admin access. Otherwise it wouldn't be locked down would it

Unable to build Windows standalone
Hi all, I have installed LC on my work machine (Windows 10, heavily secured by my hospital, so the issue may be there). LC runs and works fine. However I cannot build for Windows as it keeps throwing the same error: LC build error.jpg This happens in both LC 9.6.9 and 10 DP7. It happens regardless o...

Re: Security Issue Related to Decompilation in LiveCode
This is an important and recurring topic and clearly a potential risk for newer users. I know there’s been a blog post on this but what it really needs is an in-depth lesson showing best practices for common scenarios (password hashing, API keys etc). The lesson needs to be good enough that new user...

Re: get name of flashdrive.
This solution was proposed as a security measure but is not really secure… So whether drive letter or volume name or even knowing it is running from a USB drive using something like Linux’s usbUtils, this won’t prevent anyone from copying to usb and using anywhere/anyway. Hard to prevent that kind o...

Re: Auto Focus On Edit Field
In a similar situation, wait did not work for me - the field would still receive the focus. In the end I had the traversalOn of the field set to false by default and set to true on tabKey, mouseDown (on locked fields) and openField in unlocked fields; and had then to set it to false on closeField/ex...
