Good idea!!!! - the long ID is the same in group edit mode APART from the fact that the reference to the parent group is dropped.

Just tried using the form "control ID of card ID of stack ID" when in group edit mode and that works.

Many thanks

I know this has been discussed before but I haven't been able to find an answer!! The problem: I have an app designed in a fairly traditional way - main stack simply appears as a splash screen but holds most of the functions & commands for the app as well as the app's menu bar. Users then work on st...

Thanks for such fast responses!

...and problem solved - setting the dragdata appropriately works - and you can use dragdata["file"] and drag data["image"] to drag files & images as well as text.

Dear Livecoders, I'm building an app that makes use of Livecode's drag & drop facilities.

In short - I'm building a task manager type app that allows the user to gather all the relevant information about a task in one place.

As I've been pulling my hair out over this error for the last couple of weeks I thought I'd share the details of the solution that worked for me as it appears to be slightly different to others. When I checked my keychain for certificates my personal developer certificate was showing that the issuin...

Cool - thanks Jan I'll give that a try

Cheers Jan - that sounds like a good solution but how do I actually edit a menubar group? I can see it in the application browser but can't get to it from anywhere else?

I suspect I'm being dim here but I've just created my first standalone for windows that has a menubar. My problem is stack has a dark background and the menubar only extends to the end of the last menu heading (in this case there's only file and edit) so you get this stubby little menubar at the top...
