Ah sorry I changed my post already, please see above

So it seems to me that I haven't been able to describe well enough what I want to achieve, although it's so simple :oops: . I was going to attach two screenshots, but it makes no sense, because they look the same (cause that's the aim). After resizing the window everything should look completely the...

In the Stack Inspector I have defined the MIN to 900 (Width) and 470 (Height) and the MAX to 1200 and 770 (which are also the initial values).

Yes my aim is to resize the window and with it all the elements. Also the elements need to be relocated relative to the new window size, so that they don't disappear when shrinking the window. I have two different screens, one with high resolution and one with lower resolution. The stack is good eno...

Okay cool. I have attached my very simple (and horrible) UI .

I have started playing with the GM - one card, one field. Is it a bug or a feature that it is not possible to scale AND position the element? In the GM, in scale mode I create a link (red bar) to the right edge and the bottom edge. When I then switch to position mode and create the same links, the l...

Thanks guys, I will look into the GM. I was a little naive about how big a job this will be

This has helped me in so far as I realize that the resizeStack handler has four parameters and not only two. However I'm not really making progress and it looks like I will produce hundreds of lines of code for the resizing. Is there a common way in Livecode to adjust windows (and their contents) of...

Hi guys, not sure if the subject makes sense, I would like to resize the Stack and all the elements (fields, etc.) on its Card. I have set maximum and minimum width and height values in the property inspector. So let's say I decrease the window size, the size of all elements needs to be decreased to...

1. Only use IT when neccessary and as little as possible, IT wil change when you least expect IT! :-) Put IT immediately into a variable and work with that variable! Okay will try to remember. 2. "repeat for each..." is READ-ONLY! Wow... good to know! Your itemDelimiter needs to be what separates t...

Thanks Craig, for trying to understand my issue. The text file is actually created and filled by a Python script. The delimiter between the two "columns" are four spaces. The code now looks like this: put specialFolderPath("resources") & "/" & "test.txt" into vPath open file vPath for update read fr...

Hi guys, can't get this to work. What I have is a text file, containing data like this: 2021-06-01 10 82.83 2021-07-01 10 84.45 What I want is to replace the number values (second column) with new ones, e. g. 82.83 with 79.98. But what I get is: 2021-06-01 10 82.83 2021-07-01 10 84.45 2021-07-01 10 ...

Well thanks a lot Klaus. I did not know that

revDataFromQuery(, ,

is equal to

revDataFromQuery(TAB,CR,

and also linedelimiter is new to me. Up to now I have only played with itemdelimiter .

Hi Guys, after a loooong time I have begun to play with Livecode again. So here is my question :) : The result of put "SELECT * FROM table1" into resultTable put revDataFromQuery(, , gConID, resultTable) into tmpResult comes with linebreaks in tmpResult, which split each record of the table into two...

Thanks Klaus, that works!
