No, I don't think that's right. If you look at my widget script, it essentially creates UI objects as part of a group. For native objects you basically create the template object for that native UI element or a new instance of of an existing widget. Admittedly I have not done this by creating a sta...

Thanks Klaus, that gives me an idea. (Although terribly difficult to wrap my head around as I am used to doing apps, well programs, either entirely in scripts (not LC of course) or entirely in a UI (glide and Lc come to mind). The challenge in doing something hybrid is knowing where the binary objec...

Thanks Stam. I think that will be very helpful. But I've already run into a problem and I hope you (or someone) can spot the error of my ways (I'm probably not grasping some fundamental aspect of script-only stacks). I created a small amount of code to (a) create a new card in a stack (b) size the c...

That is the thing to use in scripts: ... create widget "your name for the new widget here..." as "com.livecode.widget.headerbar" ... Check "Create widget" in the dictionary for more info. Thanks guys, that answers my question. And your example Klaus, and the one in the dictionary, were exactly what...

Hi Craig, I'll give you a simple example (and obviously I want to do this on more complicated situations as well). I create a new script-only stack. I put the following text into it... script "OrganizeMain" -- v1.0.0 -- Main stack for Organize iOS app -- on preOpenStack -- Initialize when stack open...

Hi, this is really a 2 part question. Part 1. I am building a stack using primarily livecode script to place objects. I've am wondering if there is a guide to doing this kind of work lying around (and if not, I suppose I should think of creating one). Part 2. How can I add a widget (in this case a h...

Responding to my own question re: executing a program. Snooping around a bit I found 2 possibilities: start using stack "stack name" or go stack "start name" and I'm not quite sure of the difference between the two. However, in the current version of LC 10 (.0.2) when I type either into the msg box ...

I know I am revisiting old material I once knew but have since forgotten (and for which Google Search was no help). I've just started a new stack, opened a card and plunked a whole bunch of code in the card which had numerous errors, which I have now corrected. I'd like to run this script, but short...

Thank you for the kind words regarding the UHD Radio app! I’m a big fan of the xHE-AAC codec as it seems to defy the laws of physics as far as the quality of audio at low bit-rates. I have to agree. Right now UHD Radio is the best sounding thing coming out of my M1 MacBook Pro. Noticeably better th...

Here's the URL: https://testflight.apple.com/join/3HTqnpRN . I have an Android version currently in "Internal Testing" mode. The iOS version requires iOS 15 or newer and the Android version 9 or newer. it's worth pointing out that it runs equally well on macOS. Did you have to do a separate build f...

My second app for the App Store is "UHD Radio." This app plays fMP4 HLS 48 kbps xHE-AAC streams from 4 radio stations. Album art and ID tags are embedded in the HLS streams so they sync well with the music. Currently in public pre-release with TestFlight. Impressive to say the least. I sent you fee...

This is a great idea. May I suggest creating a thread with such offerings in the Developer Marketplace forum? We don't get much traffic here, but those coming in may look there first for developer assistance. https://forums.livecode.com/viewforum.php?f=134 Hi Richard, great suggestion but is it not...

As a further note to this, SafeSort contains a demonstration of a very slick scrolling widget called "scrollingCredits" developed by Bernd Niggeman. The cool thing about it is how "smooth" Bernd managed to make the scroll work. I am sure if you have a need to scroll some text smoothly, Bernd would b...

Something Safari itself does not provide. For those who would like to kick the tires, SafeSort is available throug...
