It seems there are two parts to this thread, 1) the correct snapshot rectangle and 2) how to attach an image to an email by script. 1) The globalLoc function will help you translate a local point to a screen coordinates. See the Dictionary. Below is a button script that takes a snapshot of a card an...

Offhand it looks like the text is there but merely cropped.

Try doubling the width and height of the field to see if it is cropped.
Maybe try setting the "Don't wrap" parameter of the field to true.

I was inspired to write an app after reading about the Wordle game in January from this web article (see the "Riddler Classic" section): https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/when-the-riddler-met-wordle/ The app contains over 12,900 words that can be guessed and approximately 2,300 of them can be a "...

I created a web app to help we with the Wordle game.
My app is a helper tool to be used in conjunction with the Wordle game.
It is on a server at LiveCode Hosting.
Feel free to take a look:

Matthias:
Great suggestion! I just changed my PHP setting to 8.1 from 7.0.
Thanks for posting this tip,
Bob

Jacque:
A much more elegant solution!
Thanks,

Zax: I have always had trouble with arrays. I tried working with your sample and found a way to extract the key/value pairs. In a new stack, I created a field with your JSON string (field "Sample JSON") and a button with the following script. on mouseUp --ws.goulding.script-library.mergjson --from d...

I changed the user interface (UI) so that now, after entering a guess word, the user can click or tap on the five individual letter boxes to toggle the different colors. Each time the letter box is clicked or tapped the color changes and the statistics are updated. It is interesting to see the numbe...

Perhaps python3 needs to be added to the $PATH variable on your computer.
Do an internet search for this phase: add a path to the path environment variable
and look for information regarding your computer (Mac, Windows, Linux, etc.).
Hope that helps,

Nice web app!
I am learning a little more about web assembly (wasm) and the interface (wasi) which are in LiveCode 10.
I think web apps are the direction of the future. I'm glad LC 10 makes it easy to create apps for the web.
Good job with your app,
Bob

@jacque:
Just so the source of this sobriquet is recognized correctly, it comes from Ali himself. In his solver program he used this title tag in his html code.

<title>Solvador D'Ali</title>

In addition to being a genius, he also has a delightful sense of humor.

@stam: I used my program and found that PANDO is not a word in the original wordle list. That must be why Ali's program choked; it couldn't find that word. @Ali If you feel like revising your program you could check the entry before trying to solve. Your web page looks so much better than mine! I'll...

The conjunction of LiveCode 10 and immensely popular Wordle app inspired my thought of writing an app to help players and, at the same time, gain experience with the web assembly (wasm) capabilities of this upcoming version of LiveCode. I have a feeling that wasm has a bright future (see article lin...
