LiveCode Forums.

You let enough time go by without practice and you forget what you've learned. When I taught coding for seniors, I said "Google is your friend" and, sure enough, tonight while I was trying to find a solution to my coding issue, Google returned this thread which I started over eight years ago. The so...

A-ha! I DL'd v.98 of the HyperXTalk DMG, mounted it, dragged the enclosed app to my Applications folder, and double-clicked it. After the "DL'd from the Internet..." warning (which I approved), the app launched and, at this point, it seems to work as intended. So, Emily-Elizabeth, kudos to you. I'm ...

Unfortunately, Sentinel did not resolve the issue. I forced a re-install of Rosetta2 using "softwareupdate --install-rosetta --agree-to-license" in Terminal but that didn't resolve the crash in LC Community 9.6.3 nor OpenXTalk. I wonder if having an M4 rather than an earlier M chip makes Rosetta2 mo...

Tried launching OpenXTalk and got exactly the same crash as I experienced with LC Community 9.6.2. and 9.6.3.

RIP register does not match crashing frame...

I expect this is something with my machine, not the LC Comm or OpenXTalk. Suggestions welcome. Thank you.

Is there a binary (DMG) download of HyperXTalk?

I've been searching through the forum and it appears that LC Community Edition 9.6.3 should run in Sequoia. I have a MacBook Air M4 running Sequoia (15.7.5) but both 9.6.2 and 9.6.3 crash just after the splash screen shows "Loading Menu Bar...". The start of the crash report shows: -----------------...

Bill was always my favorite at Apple. Woz could do chip design better than anyone but Bill's HyperCard was the most beautiful app and inspired the WWW. In my last lifetime contributing to the El Paso Mac User Group, I dabbled in some MacPoetry. What's that? Here's an oldie: The Rhyme of the Ancient ...

Richard, Thanks for the detailed mbox explanation. I'm thinking that mucking about in the mbox file is substantially above my pay grade. :lol: This specific task I am attempting may be unnecessary, as it turns out. As I was examining the Add-on "EditEmailSubject MX" which I have installed in TBird, ...

Big Thank you! to all who responded. I tried Thierry's approach as it seemed to take into account the fact that the word "Subject:" for which I was searching was only a relevant find if it appeared at the start of the line. I modified the provided script (ever so slightly to personalize it for the n...

I have a stack with a field into which I drop a file from the Desktop (Windows Desktop in this case). The file is an eMail I've dragged to the Desktop from Thunderbird. No problem getting the contents of the file to appear in the field. I then need to search for the "Subject:" line of that eMail whi...

I've been running 10.12.x for over a year. Updated to 10.12.6 when it came out. All security updates. "hang" means exactly that: LC simply stops and refuses to respond. I must force-quit. I must admit I haven't done any development work in a number of months so I'll have to play some and then post a...

I'm seeing on both my Macs where LiveCode 7.1.4 and 8.1.9 exhibit "hangs" at some inexplicable and random points; the spinning beachball starts and the app (in all windows) is frozen. Of course, I need to force-quit and re-launch. I've examined the logs in Console and find a number of log entries en...

The popup command can't be used because it relies upon the mouse pointer being within the stack window. If you attempt to use it (even with a specific location where a btn is really located!) while the mouse pointer is outside the window, you either get an error: "Message execution error: Error desc...

Yep. So "Not a bug". Now that I understand it, I'll craft something with the "click at...".

Always helps to have multiple eyes and brains working on it. Appreciate everyone's efforts. I'll get the bug report closed.

More enlightenment. I tried a fresh stack with a field and an option button. In the field I put an openField handler: on openField send mouseDown to btn "optMenu1" end openField What's strange is that, wherever the mouse pointer is located within the stack window , that's where the option button's c...
