Okay... on the zooming part. Yes I do believe that it is possible, but you would need to script the desired action for each object. Unfortunately, that is well past my current experience with LC, so maybe someone with more knowledge can chime in here. I put together a very simple demo stack that sho...

Hello and welcome! Yes! LiveCode can do what you're asking and it's simple to do. (Not sure about the "zooming" that you described, but scrolling the oversize canvas is simple to do) All that is required is to "group" your over-sized canvas/image, lock it in place and set the horizontal and vertical...

I believe that dglass makes a valid point up to an extent... Each and every one of the selectable properties that can be seen in the property dialogs are explained (with helpful examples) in the LiveCode dictionary. The info is not missing. A better idea I personally believe, is if the LiveCode team...

Hello Barry, I access the Mini and Win 7 using a KVM switch. Just a couple of quick key presses and I can go from one to the other depending on what I want or need to be doing. I've never cared for dual booting and felt that purchasing a copy of Win 7 outright (with or without Parallels) was just to...

Be sure to at least have a look at each of the scripting conference stacks, which is probably one the easiest ways to gain a very wide view of "what can be done simply and easily", as well as the "how to" aspects of LiveCode: http://www.runrev.com/developers/lessons-and-tutorials/tutorials/online-sc...

Hey folks, I'm using Windows 7 with LC (Build 1130 Version 4.5.1) and have had no issues at all in creating executable Mac applications. In the standalone settings, I have been selecting Mac OS X (Universal) and saving as a standalone. I then zipped up the application folder that contains the .app f...

The DBQB was a very simplistic tool that allowed one to choose a database and easily bind record content to various controls... FWIW, although it was simple to use, that same simplicity made it almost unusable for most applications anyway. (not something most folks would likely miss) I'm not sure wh...

Without seeing the offending script, there isn't much of a way to determine what might be wrong... sorry.

Ya know, I didn't even think about it...
...it's all good.

Works just fine for me....

Assuming that your scrollbar is named "ProgressionBar", then I think this should work for you: set the thumbPosition of scrollbar "ProgressionBar" to CurrentLine -- Or maybe the short version: set the thumbPosition of sb "ProgressionBar" to CurrentLine Does that help? Best regards, -Doc- Edit: Added...

Thanks for this Scott! I recently installed both FPC and Lazarus (Win/LInux/Mac) just for the pure fun of playing with Pascal again... ... it's been years since I messed with it and even then I wasn't ever very good using it, so I seriously doubt that I can add anything useful in the way of an LiveC...

Hey folks, When using Rev 4.0 on Windows 7, just as elchamaquito is doing, I'm seeing the exact same crash as he described in his original post. It crashes while in the IDE and it crashes the simple test executable as well... every time it tries to display the cursor. Same test stack on LC 4.53.... ...

Are you asking about spacing/distributing a group of selected controls equally maybe?
If that's the case, you can access the "align objects" menu from the properties palette once you have more than one control selected.

Could there be more than one? Bruce Well, I didn't think so, but ya never now these days... :wink: Don't know how far or deep you've gotten involved in LiveCode yet Bruce, but if you wait out the "what is crazy stuff all about" syndrome, you'll love it! I've been an "official user" for about six ye...
