LiveCode Forums

I postpone the miniature problem, facing a much worse:
Producing a standalone for windows seems to work, but opening in windows the menus doesn't appear.
I further copied the mainstack to windows, in order to try standaloning there, but the menus are already invisible there.
Any advice ?

Hello, and thank you for all your help along the way, now it is fully functional :D :D :D :D :D on openStack    put specialfolderpath("documents") & "/Phenomenalog" into tFolder    if there is not a folder tFolder then      create folder tFolder    end if    put tFolder & "/e-diary.livecode" into tT...

Thanks, I think I have full understanding of the concepts but the name of the standalone-builder stack, diary.livecode ( where I placed your script),may easily be misunderstood as the the mainstack name e-diary.livecode, which the standaloned diary.livecode refuses to open. I therefore renamed the s...

Sorry, I still can't make it work. The standalones just opens the Diary.livecode file even if livecode is closed I have copied your text directly into the file. Could there be aspects of the standalone settings where I have failed. ? There is a choice between search for required inclusions or select...

Trying and trying, without result. Present stacksript: Can you late any error in this: on openStack put specialfolderpath("documents") & "/Phenomenalog 20.0.4" into tFolder if there is not a folder tFolder then create folder tFolder end if put tFolder & "/e-diary.livecode" into tSourceStack put spec...

‪Thanks for the advice, but I am stuck in my attempts to implement. I produced a new mainstack, named Diary on openStack put specialfolderpath("documents") & "/Phenomenalog 20.0.4" into tFolder if there is not a folder tFolder then create folder tFolder end if put tFolder & "/e-diary.livecode" into ...

Hello I am afraid I still need some help- I want of course to publish, so the launcher should not refer to the long effective filename on my computer , but just to the folder of the application. I tried to abbreviate the reference, omitting the layers above the application, but can't make it work. f...

Dear Klaus After I found out, that the externals were to be included in the standalone settings of the launcher it now works perfectly !!!! :D :D :D :D :D Thank you for your patience and your efforts. I may come back here concerning minor details, but today I am just happy and grateful best regards ...

Thank you Your last advice may be essential to solving the problem, but I have an inet browser, which works as a substack in the mainstack. I quote here the script: local sBrowserId = "" # Opens the browser and sets initial url and position. command browserInit local tBrowserId put revBrowserOpen(th...

So many thanks !!!! Now its basic operation works ok. The amnesia has been cured ! HOWEVER: A central aspect of the mainstack is the functioning of a substack "My cyberspaces", permitting the user to make / and baptise/ links to internet sites. (Already installed are links to wikipedia, advanced goo...

I have now tried with a script referring to the effective filename, but launcher doesnt open mainstack and returns no errors. on openStack open stack "/Users/Kresten/Desktop/20.0.4 Klon for launcher/Phenomenalog 20.0.4/Personal diary/Diaryproper/e-diary.livecode" -- open stack "e-diary.livecode" if ...

Dear Bogs As to the error message, I found some unneccesary code in the card script of the mainstack, which I erased, Now the launcer tells of no errors, it just doesnt open the stack. The OS is X ElCapitan v 10.11.6 The livecode is 6.7.8 I am grateful for your offer to have a look at my monster of ...

I followed Richards scripting and got the answer : No such card(2)

No Your demo works fine
