[ANN] Open Source Offering

Post by netdzynr » Fri Jan 28, 2022 8:13 pm

Hey LC folks:

It's been a while since I've been around, but wanted to share a small announcement. Some of you oldtimers might recall an add-on package for LC I was developing several years back called tmControl which was a collection of theme-able controls (mostly for mobile, but also some desktop). Mike Kerner has been prompting me to provide access to the package in an open-source format, so I recently assembled the collection of stacks and made them available under a FreeBSD license, meaning you can take them and build what you like.

Mike is maintaining a GitHub repository of the files where he's made edits to keep the files up to date with the latest LiveCode:
https://github.com/macMikey/tmControl

You can also download a ZIP of the collection here (Chrome browser might flag the URL as unsecure):
https://tmtools.tactilemedia.com/tmcontrol2/

If you want to see what tmControl is, an old promotional video for the collection (with some obnoxious music) is here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_8DtrVpwrds

Hope folks are able to get some use out of this. Best wishes to you.

- Scott Rossi

Hi Scott,

nice to hear from you again, and thank you for this!

Klaus

P.S.
It took me quite a while until I finally "decrypted" your nickname! :-D

That's an awesome gift for the LC community. :D

Always loved your work and learned quite a few (useful) things from you in the past.

Thank you Scott,

I have learned a lot from you sample stacks.
They show very well what is possible in terms of graphics in Livecode.

Good luck with whatever you do now.

Kind regards
Bernd
