Check the fixedLineHeight of each field. Checking the fixedLineHeight increases the space between lines. The text in the two fields still look different. The fonts seem to be different. The font property for both say "(text)" and grayed out. The text font of the stack returns empty, so (I presume) ...

I have two fields (see image below). The top one is a label field, the bottom one, regular field. There is no other difference between the two. The font, textSize, textHeight, are all identical. The line height is not fixed; however, there are no funny chars or mixed size chars in the fields. Is it ...

Here’s what I have figured out: 1. Setting credentials is simply sending the command AWSSetCredentials. Nothing is returned (both “it” and “the result” are empty). 2. Once your credentials are set, according to AWS REST API reference documents, the signing key and signature are valid for up to 7 day...

I am trying to learn the basics of using AWS S3 for data storage and retrieval through LiveCode scripting. The dictionary provides the command AWSSetCredentials kAccessID, kSecret, "us-east-1" and notes that all requests must include an authorization header that contains a scoped signature …., etc. ...

Thanks, Matthias!

I have added my name to the CC list.

Matthias: It worked! By the way the terminal command only shows the plug-ins in the user library. So, I did not see these Adobe plug-ins the first time. I used the Finder to go to System Library/ internet plugins folder and there they were! (I do wonder whether this problem will occur if a user of t...

In terminal do:

Code: Select all

open ~/Library/Internet\ Plug-Ins/

And see if there's anything Adobe-looking in there.

I did; it opened the Internet Plug-Ins window; no Adobe items. In fact, the only entry is "Dish Anywhere Player.plugin"!

If you open the PDF in your browser, what URL does it show?

file:///Users/MyName/PiaData/activities/A101.pdf

I have tried the following: 1. "/Users/JohnDoe/MyData/A101.pdf" 2. "file:///Users/JohnDoe/MyData/A101.pdf" 3. "file:/Users/JohnDoe/MyData/A101.pdf" 4. Running each of the above through URLencode() 5. Running each through replace " " with "%20" In all cases, LC9.5.1 on MacOS10.14.6 crashes. * The pro...

Hi Klaus: I had mentioned in an earlier post that when I opened https://www.adobe.com/support/products/enterprise/knowledgecenter/media/c4611_sample_explain.pdf in Safari, copied the URL and pasted it in the URL field of the browser widget, and changed from edit to run mode, LC crashed. Does that ha...

Hi Klaus:
When move the cursor to the bottom of the screen in Safari (with pdf file open),
the image with 4 options pops up (see attached). So, it is not Acrobat.

Sri.

do not use: ... ## put URLendcode(it) into tTemp ## Try with: replace SPACE with "%20" in tTemp ... These are different! Klaus: I can do that, but URL has no spaces (the filename is A101.pdf and I take care not to use any spaces in my folder names). What happens if you open that PDF right in SAFARI...

It is getting more complicated! 1. I tried to load an online pdf document (from Adobe, no less) and copied into the URL field of the widget the following: https://www.adobe.com/support/products/enterprise/knowledgecenter/media/c4611_sample_explain.pdf LC crashed! 2. I tried an online html document, ...

Here's something else: 1. Most of the files on my Mac are in iCloud Drive (local drive that is backed up in iCloud). I had specifically created a folder *outside* of iCloud drive for keeping documents that I was using in my LiveCode app. Accessing these pdf documents is what is crashing LC. 2. I cop...

Hi Klaus: I updated my system software to 10.14.6 (to be in sync with yours), LC9.5.1 Indy My filepath has no spaces; nevertheless, I used URLencode, as follows: on mouseUp local tTemp answer file "Open" put URLendcode(it) into tTemp set the URL of widget "Browser" to tTemp end mouseUp It still cras...
