using fonts with input and multiline

I have an installed font from the web working on all the other elements of my android app except the mobgui input and multiline objects - although they indicate it is being used they don't show the correct font - though the mobgui buttons do show the correct font. Is there another way to set the fon...

Re: Does MobGui work with LiveCode 7.0 RC-2?

Try with an LC 6.. version - mobgui does look/often functions better than LC buttons on mobile. Currently I'm using 6.7 rc2 which for Windows/android seems to work quite well - builds quickly. But you may find 6.6.1 or similar may be more stable for Mac with Mobgui. It's a shame there's not a few mo...

combobox menu on Android

On android the combo box selector remains visible if you have short word selections e..g car, cat, dog etc. Ideally it should be hidden when the selections appear.In certain positions it actually hides selections. What's the best way to resolve e.g. pad all selections with extra spaces?

Re: Detect if 3rd party app is installed (Android)

You could use when opening the stack, e.g. answer "To use .. you need to install xyz" with "OK, install", "Already installed" etc So "OK install" takes you to E.G. http://zxing.appspot.com/scan Whatever they respond - you don't ask them again. Or, e.g. if the QR company has 'a custom url' you could ...

Re: Native mobile scroller for list field (dynamic content)

this may not work but I use: Set the top of group "ScrollArea" to -vOffset Even if it doesn't fix your problem it does give a much smoother scroll on Android. I have been trying to develop a similar concept - but by cloning a group of objects to add to the scrolling group - so the contentrect increa...

Re: Streaming videos from Vimeo within an app

Newtronsols, what I am experiencing is that the player loads, the share buttons, and video controls are visible,as well as the image for the video, but when you press play, only the sound plays - the video remains black. As far as I know this is related to the bug that Chris posted.... --Sefro Curi...

I just literally pasted to the card script. Searched and replaced iphone to mobile. Set app permissions to internet and external - and install location external storage. Gave it a name and tested. I didn't modify anything else - I'm using 6.7 rc2 commercial and a sony xperia sp. oh, except I did put...

Re: Streaming videos from Vimeo within an app

Yes I have it working on Android - have you set application permissions to Internet? or tried another version of LC.

I tried share and I get 3 + 1 red boxes. if you click the boxes you can share by email.

Re: PROJECT: RevOnline triage

One suggestion is to have a standard platform test/reporting tool in LC. So that when you have a problem you can report things like: platform, build used, mobile device etc without having to work it out before emailing/posting. You could simply run the system test tool and let it report the basic st...

Re: Relative file path

It is a curious thing but I thought iterative (agile) design meant that each test/build things got better. So I'd imagine 6.7 was everything 6.6 plus a bit more. But I read the forum 'suggest' that e.g. 6.x commercial isn't 6.x community or that 7 [potentially/ I don't know] could be stable 6.5 'for...
