I am preparing a register for a projected book. In p. 9, there is written: "(Gesamtwürdigung des Werkes)".
Now I start 2 searches of the form "find word":
a) for "Gesamtwürdigung"
b) for "Werkes"
The results: a) ist "not found", b) is found on p. 9.
To me the results seem contradictory, because ...

Which version of 7 was the stack created with, and which version are you currently using? Stack file corruption is extremely rare in LiveCode, but not impossible, esp. of the stack was originally saved with a very early version of v7dp.

I am using 7.01; the stack was created in runrev 2..., then ...

Thanks to Klaus and FourthWorld. I think, I understand the problems of backward saving now better.

But my principal question - omitting all things, that I added for a complete description - was this:
I open the stack by Livecode 7. After some scripting using unicode characters ...
I save the ...

Hello,
I have an very old stack, which works well until LC 6.5.1. Now LC changes to Unicode, and flying accents (in a polytonic Greek font) don't work correctly in LC 6.5.2 and later versions. So I wanted to change to LC 7, in order to use Unicode in the future.
Now, opening the stack by LC 7 works ...

Thanks once more!
I have now found a way - a bit strange, but it works:
set the fullscreen of this stack to false
set the fullscreenmode of this stack to "letterbox"
With best regards
Gottfried


Naturally that was an error. In fact it seems I have changed at the same time to an earlier edition of ...

Thank you, Mark - the fixed line height is set to false.
To me too it seems a bug - but I cannot repeat it outside my stack in a simple field!
One thing I can add now: When I changed once to one of the fullscreenmodes, the bug disappeared in all variants!
Thanks for considering my problem!
Gottfried

I wrote an app on Mac OS X 5.7.5 in live code 6.5.1 and saved it for Windows. The following is only true for this Windows-Standalone, and only if used with fullscreen set to false (which I think some users will prefer):
When I write Greek forms in a field, the font of which ...

By the Standalone application settings I saved a large file in "copy non-stack files". I think, the copying was successful, relying on the size of the standalone.
But how can get back the files, to use them in the standalone environment? I tried with revcopyfile, but the maximum I got were empty ...

Not a reply, but a supplement:
It seems a bug of version 6.1. of live code, it does not yet exist in 6.0.2!
I hope, correction will come soon.

I wrote two apps on Mac und saved them as standalones for Windows.
In the last weeks I made a new version of one of these, and now, in the Windows version (Windows XP), the text in the dialog boxes does not fit into the buttons (OK, Cancel, Abbrechen etc.) and into the entering field of the ask ...

Dear Mark,
thank you for your answer.

1. In the meantime I reloaded the whole program, and the script editor now works as before - i.e. with a strange double flashing of the entry fields of the different inspector windows before showing the scripts, but with good results.

2. For example using the ...

Problems with the new version of Rev Studio:

My computer: iMac G5, Software: Mac OS X.3.9
1. the script editor worked sometimes only after several calls - and now has ceased to work (error announcement: Type: can't find handler, Object: revNewScripteditor 1 , Line and Hint: set prefsave)
2. while ...

I had similar results: when closing Windows, it requested at first a forced exit for my standalone application.

I tried now to do the same with Revoution 2.1 - but in this version the command revspeechVoices() produced the result "FALSE" with Windows.

Both applications were written on Mac OS 10.3 ...
