I mean that it doesn't show in the device. Anyway Panos just confirmed that is a bug and suggested a valid workaround so for anyone that is experiencing the same issue can check in the QA Center for details. Briefly the problem is due to the textFont property set in the stack and inherited by the wi...

Hi everybody, I would like to share with you a problem that I am experiencing with the barcode scanner widget that I would like to use in my mobile app for android. I already commented with my problems in the QA Center but I don't know if that is the proper way to solve my problem so I post it also ...

Hi Richard, thanks for feedback.
I will try what you suggest and will let you know.

Hi Paul, thanks for feedback. I may agree with you that the quickest way to manage for what I need is to use object groups with shared behavior. My question is: is there a way to create groups that I can quickly re-use as a control, like the datagrid? Is there an API in Livecode to use grouped contr...

Hi everybody and thanks for the useful materials that you posted on this thread. I have a question about widgets in genera and I report my questions that I already posted on another thread in which Klaus suggested me to refer to this one to get more info. Sorry if it sound like a crossposting: if ne...

Hi Klaus, thanks for prompt feedback.
I will have a deeper look on the thread you suggested but after just a quick view I can say that there is no way to use LC native controls (buttons, fields etc) in a widget, isn't it? Everything must be "designed" on the go, am I right?

Hi everybody, I am trying to figure out if it's possible to use LCB to create widgets that embed standard LC controls like field or buttons. The aim of this kind of "studies" is to understand if I can create reusable custom controls accessible from the standard LC toolbar (I.E. like datagrid). Actua...

Hi, I don't use the project browser but you can also try by yourself with the attached stacks.
I tried on different Mac workstations, and don't know if the problem it's the same on Windows.

Hi Dunbarx, thank you for your reply.
I'm quite sure that the problem is related to the datagrid, my problem is that I don't understand why when the stack is a substack it takes 4 times slower.
I need to use the datagrid for my purposes and fields are not useful to me.
Bye-

Hi everybody, I'm experiencing a very strange behavior that I cannot understand. Here is the scenario: I have a datagrid in form format in which I load about 17k rows from a file using the dgText. The datagrid completes all the operations in about 500 milliseconds if it's located in the mainstack bu...

Hi everybody, I'm experiencing a lot of troubles in launching an application from command line as the behavior is not understandable. My real need is to launch an application with admin privileges so my basic idea is (as it's also described in documentation) to have a bash script, to invoke with the...

Hi Klaus,
I filed a new bugreport:

Thank you for your help and suggestions.

Hi Klaus and jmburnod, first of all thank you for your replies. Working on non-resized image actually change the behavior but in any case I have weird result (I.E. different resulting cropped image if I use breakpoints or not...). Also I can see that if I crop the non-resized image and it's cropped ...

Hi everybody, just want to ask you here if you are experiencing problems in cropping images. My current experience in 9.0.x is that cropping an image will result in an image resizing instead of a proper cropping. You can find attached to the post a stack in 3 different versions (7.0, 5.5 and 2.7). T...
