Re: How to replace the windows `beep` sound
I think the only way to achieve this would be to replace the wav files normally found here C:\Windows\Media

Re: Another reason to stick with LiveCode?
Interesting thread. So as I read it, the act of writing a program in the Livecode language is considered memory safe as the programmer has no control on how the program written in the Livecode language allocates the memory the program uses. However, the Livecode engine is written largely in c, c++ w...

Re: Code folding for Livecode 9.6.9 and up
Hi Bernd,
This is absolutely brilliant!
I've tested on a 2000 line card script and it does what it says on the tin.
Thank you for the time and effort you've put into this.
Note to LiveCode HQ. Please talk to Bernd about this, it should be a top of list new feature!

Re: Windows Standalone "Externals" Folder
Hi Jon,
No the externals are separate to the exe on Windows.
And if you use some of the lcb components, i.e. the Chart in V10.xx you will get an extension folder as well.

Re: How to get the active window title
As a bonus this will also work with a generated exe file. Which has the advantage that your user does not have to have python installed and no need for the user to have to be helped with installing the packages which they are sure not to have! Amended code on mouseUp pMouseButton getWindows end mous...

Re: systemMetrics
I've been using chatgpt with Livecode in a different way with improving results. I'm feeding in working python code and asking for a Livecode equivalent. When I first started, about a month ago the results were to say the least not encouraging, with chatgpt basing results on functions that do not ex...

How to get the active window title
Ok, so I needed to be able to determine the active (non Livecode) window in Windows, Livecode has no way of doing this directly...hmmm. But, you can do this with python using this little script import win32gui #part of the pywin library, pip install pywin def get_active_window_title(): window = win3...

Re: Timer algorithm
No sure about the undo problem but, you should amend this line first

otherwise your timing loop becomes blocking

Re: Script not running closing card and returning
Also the global gTimers only needs to be initiated once. Just put global gTimers at the top of the card script outside of any handlers and it will be available for use for all handlers in the card script. To use gTimers any where else, eg. a button, another card, stack again just add to the top of t...
