Re: Move graphic object, scheduled by specific date

You are definitely on the right track with looking at send. Try this in a button with a graphic "oval" on the card somewhere other than 100,100. This script will check the date every 12 hours (43200 seconds) and move the grc oval if the date is 7/15/16. on mouseup if the short date is "7/15/16" then...

New Direct Show Player Object - Does it work?

Using win 10 and LC 8.1 (dp1) I am unable to get the player object to play any file whether it be local, imported, or online. The "Time" field in the Object Inspector changes when a new FIlename is set, but I have not been able to get the player to actually produce sound or video when I switch to th...

Re: Can the Browser control on desktop apps?

As of LiveCode 8 there is a drag and drop browser widget that should work on all platforms. :D

Re: Navigation and Header bar widgets don't work

You'll need to select the extensions/widgets you are using in the "Copy Files" section of the standalone settings.

Re: SVG and PNG Clip Art Stack

Thanks to the new JSONimport() function, this stack no longer requires a 3rd party JSON library. It also seems to be a bit faster as well.

Re: LC versions

At the moment, I am struggling in internal discussions when I argue for bringing neat new features to the Open Source edition. I'm not asking for "neat new features", I am asking that the community funded kickstarter goals be met before spinning off business and indy only features. As someone who h...

Re: LC versions

I have to admit, I do find the fact that they are spinning off new business and indy only features while many of the original kickstarter goals are still unmet and continually kicked to the bottom of the Roadmap to be troubling.

Re: Monetizing Your Apps when using LiveCode

I wouldn't let this issue put you off Livecode altogether though, it's definitely a great tool. As I understand it, the software as a whole is kind of in the middle of a massive transformation. I expect/hope that a lot of these things will be cleared up by the time a stable release of LC8 is availab...

Re: Monetizing Your Apps when using LiveCode

As far as I am aware, this is the only working option at this point in time. It's not great.

Re: Good practice for security in Livecode

If you want good security, use some sort of "middleware" script. Hard coding your database credentials into an app that will be widely distributed is not secure. see this thread, which IIRC contains both a PHP and LiveCode server example. http://forums.livecode.com/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=23614&hilit=e...

Re: issue with repeat?

This is what I came up with. It seems to work.

Code: Select all

   repeat with h = 1 to 10
      if exists (img("note"&h)) then 
         delete img("note"&h)
         end if
   end repeat

Re: online mysql

I think what you will need is to use a "middleware" script on your server. It is not safe to hard code your database credentials in the actual app. there have been several threads on this, do a search of the forum for "middleware" to get some examples.
