Hi I have a stack that has gone weird. The problem in simple terms. I have a card with a button. The button displays a group. A button on the group (that is now displayed) hides the group - showing the card again. It works perfectly on the Mac IDE but when built as a stand alone application the scre...

Hi

I have found the issue. Media player was introduced as a dependency in 7.1 as part of an upgrade to support camera.
This is a known bug that if media player is not installed this error will occur. RunRev are looking at failing safe in a later release if the library's are not installed.

Hello I have a piece of software the reads email via pop and then send a response by SMTP. It worked great from my old code base. I recently updated the code using Livecode 7.1 Indy to replace some of the text as it was out of date, not changing the fundamentals, and now the code does not run on the...

Hi I have captured the event in a stack. I will be submitting it in the next day or two. Additionally On Indy 7.1 I also get lots of crashes. The way to trigger this is try to work with LC with a trackpad, and not a mouse. If you are not 'clean' with your drags and drops etc, it crashes the app. Mou...

That is brilliant. You are right when you say it will change programming style.

To date I have written a script to copy the script from my master object to the objects of interest. This is a far more mature method.

Thank you both.

This kind of repeated script is a good candidate for a behavior too. You might want to try that later.

I am not sure what this means but I am not interested. Are you able to point to a resource to explain what you mean by a 'behaviour'. I am always in better ways to improve my code.

I only work on Stable platform.
I am using the MacOS Livecode Indy 7.1

I am surprised (and pleased) to here how stable your experience has been. I have had entire stacks go corrupt where I have had to cut all of the object out of the stack and paste them into another stack to save them. I have had this weird issue a couple of times before too. This was the first time I...

Hi This is not the first time I have encountered this, but this time I have a working example where it has been captured. The fault is where an object has the right code but it does not behave as it should. A have found a cut/paste of the object fixes it. I do not understand and it is very annoying ...

LOL. I fell straight into the same trap. I was storing some values in the custom properties of the stack only to find they were not there later. I felt they would be persistent because they were properties and not variables. It is sort of implied but definitely not stated anywhere. It is more of a l...

Hi I like to think I know my way around livecode but the subject offprinting on an IoS device has got me totally stumped. I have a field and I have been able to get it to print on a Mac not problem but I cannot find anything (information or tool) that allows me to print from iOS. They must exist how...

HI I have been working on a stack in version 6.7 and suddenly it got corrupted. I cannot explain it or how. I have managed to open it in version 7 but it will not open in 6.7 Is there a clean up mechanism that can be performed to strip it down and rebuild it as I no longer trust the base stack. Some...

SOLVED The app/stack was being resized when being run on the 11inch MacBook Air from 1024 x 768 to 1024 x 717, probably to accommodate the menu and dock. SOLUTION 1 - Rescale app --Set the scale factor set the scalefactor of this stack to 0.75 --Resize the stack set the height of this stack to 768 ...

Hi Yes. I wrote the app on an iMac with LOTS of screen space. 1024 x 768 was the app size. I want to run it on a Macbook Air. (Not iPad Air). The macbook is screen res of 1366 x 768 but the app is always cropped, even in full screen mode (all modes of full screen mode). It has me stumped. Even setti...

HI I wrote an app on my iMac with a screen resolution of 1024 x 768. Great - It all worked. I sent it to a friend who had an Airbook 11 inch. That screen resolution is on 1366 x 768 so the Mac 'trimmed' the bottom of the Window (Because of the status bay and dock I think). Not so good. To fix this I...
