LiveCode Forums

Trying something new, looking at ways of promoting LiveCode to the masses. Tomorrow at 10:30 Berlin time I will be live streaming the first in a series of videos on YouTube Live. This will be in English. The first one will be... Coding a simple countdown timer in LiveCode that can output the countdo...

Hi glenn9, welcome to the forum. Just add set the bottom of graphic "Column" to 200 exchange 200 for the position of your rectangle. You can easily find this with the message box and entering put the bottom of graphic "Column" Also wrap all your code with a lock screen and unlock screen... try remov...

Wow! LiveCode has made an amazing leap to number 36 on the tiobe index.

What a great start to the new year.

Oh Wow!

This is really exciting, looking forward to see how this progresses.

Way cool.

I see you have a LCS mode. Is this a full CodeMirror mode file? If so it would be great to have this added to the CodeMirror modes list.

Again as Bogs said "very big thumbs up"

I've noticed a few times that if LiveCode appears to just shut down on its own, that its worth checking the Task Manager (Alt-Shift-Delete >Task Manager) just to make sure that there are no orphaned LiveCode background processes still running. If there are and you start a new instance of LiveCode, t...

I think that the important takeaway here is that no matter how the index is calculated Livecode has moved into a position where it can be listed as Livecode and not just lumped in with the remaining last 50 languages. This gives Livecode more visibility which can only be good news for Livecode and a...

What about using a service like this?

Turn Google Sheet into RESTful API's

They have a free option..

I've seen this a few time, Win 10.

Most times I've managed to abort the problem by starting up the Windows Task Manager (Ctrl+Shift+Delete), that seems to take the focus away from LiveCode.

Yes exactly, i think that would be useful.

Hi David, yes this is a recent bug which I need to backtrack to find where it first appeared, thanks for pointing it out.

This works wonderfully..just patched into my copy of LC.


Many thanks for your efforts.

So next just need to work out how to activate this form script in the main stack of a plugin.

Looking forward to it

So the saga is finally at an end .. what a frustrating day. So what was happening was that every time I started LC all the scriptonly files for TinyIDE would automatically populate the Project Browser .. what! This was with every thing else removed from the plugins folder just leaving the scriptonly...

Another interesting thing I just noticed is that if you have a folder such as TinyIDE_ Behaviors in the plugins folder containing script only stacks these will automatically be displayed in the Project Browser, whereas if the folder is named for example TinyIDE_ Scripts then these will not be automa...

The custom property of "_ideoverride" looks like the way to go. Didn't know about this one.

It would be great to rename my plugins omitting the rev suffix as it make editing the binary stack sooo much easier.

Thanks for all the suggestions and help on this one....time to code!
