I don’t think I’ll ever actually understand how datagrids work, but so long as I can get them to work, I can live with that .

Klaus, I didn’t have any of those routines in my scripts, but I’m playing around with that idea now and having some success.

Thanks

Another datagrid question. Briefly I need to copy some values from one datagrid (DG1) to another datagrid (DG2). So I’ve copied the original values in DG2 into ‘theDataA’ and then added the values from DG1. I’ve then updated DG2 with: set the dgdata of group "DG2" to theDataA (I’ve also tried dispat...

Thanks Klaus, I'll give this a try !

Hi Simon

Yes I think your right !

I'm running version 6.5.1 on OSX 10.9.1

I was just wondering how to make a clean install of livecode?

My copy is doing very strange things, its pretty much unuseable right now.

What files do I need to delete so that I have a completely fresh version?

Thanks in advance for any help

There is an option to build a tree from a text file, but when I try to select a .txt file I can't open it (the only clickable button is cancel)?

Any idea whats wrong (I'm using LC 6.1 on a Mac) ?

Well thanks for the tips. I’ve tried a few things but with no success. I’ve updated Livecode to version 6.0.2 (build 1521) which is the latest in my download area (apart from the rc and dp versions). I’ve made sure my OSX is up to date. There isn’t a blue square in the editor either. I’ve also tried...

I don't know whether anyone else has experienced this problem but it is driving me mad. The problem only happens with Livecode. Working in the IDE is fine but if I then click in the script editor to add or alter something, even though the cursor is blinking away there , its not working there but sti...

Hi Dixie Thanks for that. The thought had crossed my mind. What through me off track was that when I ran it in the simulator the speed field was updating OK. I can't be sure the numbers were right, but they were of the right sort of order for the various modes of travel. I've tried using Haversine, ...

I’m just experimenting with the mobile gps functions and I’ve hit a problem in getting the “speed” from the Location data. The code is basically as follows: mobileStartTrackingSensor "location", true put mobileSensorReading ("location",true) into geodata put geodata["latitude"] into tlat put geodata...

Thanks Klaus

It didn't make any sense to me before.

It makes perfect sense now !

I wonder if someone could help me with the menu builder. As an example, if I create a new stack and add the default menu with the menu builder, in the menu bar at the top of the screen on a mac, only the new, open and close items show for the file menu (ie no line or quit). A similar thing happens f...

I’m running Livecode 5.0.2 on Mac OSX10.6.8 and have rTree 1.5.9 If I create a new stack using the wizard and build the tree with a file system, that part works OK. If I try to reset the icons using the menu, an error message pops up (not everytime, but most times) saying there was an error executin...

Many thanks

Yes without the quotes it all works fine.

I just can't get this to work. I'm trying to get the contents of a datagrid cell from a column, where I use a variable to define the actual column. This is the problem I'm having: put 2 into tnumbera put quote & "Col" & tnumbera & quote into tcola put theDataA[tcola] theDataA is the line data of a d...
