[SOLVED] Has anyone recently compiled a ChartMaker included graph with no errors?

Post by karmacomposer » Wed Aug 05, 2020 11:47 pm

Hey everyone.

I am attempting to compile a desktop software that has a dashboard made partly with ChartMaker.

I made it a substack, licensed it properly, followed all the directions and yet, in the compiled (64 bit) version
of my software, ChartMaker throws errors, saying it's not embedded. Funny enough, there are the graphs looking
nice.

Any help is appreciated. I can't distribute an app that loudly exclaims ChartMaker errors several times.

Thanks.

Mike

I found out the cause.

In the Livecode standalone application settings window, there is a check box for moving substacks into individual stack files - make sure it is unchecked or compilation of ChartMaker will fail.

That's it.

Thierry,

No, that is incorrect. It's not clear as in it's not even stated. I did all of that and it failed every time. It wasn't until I unchecked that option that it succeeded. No where in the documentation does it say to uncheck that box.

In the docs, it needs to clearly state that or it's WRONG!

Mike
