For future reference... Here's a list of already-bit-shifted numbers for adding together to create NSWindow's styleMask value for the type of window you want to create: -- Borderless = 0 -- Titled = 1 -- Closable = 2 -- Miniaturizable = 4 -- Resizable = 8 -- Utility = 16 -- DocModal = 64 -- Nonactiv...

In fact it seems part of the problem was just having this binding string in my lcb file, even if it's not called from any handler, causes a crash when I go to compile with extension builder. Which seems like it might be a bug. Perhaps it's caused by the fact that the LC engine itself already uses CG...

Here is what I found in some code from some WebKit example code at https://github.com/trevordevore/lc-macos-toolset/blob/master/WebKit/webkit.lcb : public foreign type NSRect binds to "MCAggregateTypeInfo:qqqq" private foreign handler ObjC_WebViewInitWithFrame (in pWebView as ObjcId, in pRect as NS...

Anybody know how to make NSRect or CGRect struct in LCB? Or know the proper way to bind to any of Apple's Foundation functions that return one (such as NSMakeRect, CGRectMake, or NSRectFromString)? I've tried a bunch of different binding strings such as: "c:CoreFoundation.framework>CGRectMake","c:Co...

I was using google search as spell-checker and it didn't give me the usual "Did you mean..." & the correct spelling... probably made that comment after reading this disc...

Is "deleteable" incorrect? Perhaps the English language needs some more evolving as there doesn't seem to be any English word for that. Delete-enabled?

The self contained demo stack on livecodeshare.runrev.com has been updated with a slightly newer version of the widget's binary embedded into it. I've added a few more demos that show off some features I've added since 1.0 was released. These include a new property for assigning different fill color...

Did anyone do PR's for these corrections on GitHub yet? I've seen a few of errors myself, but usually while I'm too busy doing something else and never get around to collecting them as @richmond62 has done here. If not, this would be a good little "Hacktoberfest" side-project (and my last Hacktoberf...

Thank! As I said, I did get some help with it. I'd be happy to explain anything about it if you have any questions.

I'm working on version 1.5 right now, but there's other projects that I'd like to get back to working on as well, so my efforts on this widget will likely slow down after 1.5.

I'm happy to announce the release of my first real widget! Piano Widget version 1.0 Available from the LiveCode extension store here: https://livecode.com/extensions/piano-widget/1-0/ Basic demo stack (that uses LC's very limited built-in sound capabilities) is here: http://livecodeshare.runrev.com/...

I just found your tool while working on some Widget Properties... Just an FYI, it doesn't list some Widget properties, at least not beyond some of the basics. For example: I've shadowed the LiveCode property borderColor in my Widget (along with a some others standard and some custom props too) but ...

Well what do you know, Cards have borders, even though that property is not present in the inspector. The Inspector is a subset of properties, showing only the most commonly used one. But LC is a deep language, so there's always something new to discover. This Property Sheet tool shows all props re...

@LCMark answered my question on Gitter, pasting here for future reference: The borderWidth isn't an inherited property and so isn't one which is excluded from being used as a widget property. The signature widget just does: private variable mBorderWidth as Number property "borderWidth" get mBorderWi...

I'm finding that the default script doesn't show up in the Extension Builder window ("No default script found") but if you click the Edit button the script does appear in the script editor and also populates the default script pane in the Extension Builder. LC 9.6.1. Yeah, the Extension Builder def...

In a widget how do I inherit the borderWidth property from the engine for use with canvas strokes? In the dictionary the signature widget (indy) is the only widget that has that property, but that doesn't come with source code. I already know how to inherit/convert color properties like borderColor,...
