Re: use-livecode Digest, Vol 98, Issue 4

[Michael Kristensen]

Hi Mark

Very nice to see your additions.

One comment on the DPI

If you want a ruler that match your printer you should use 72.
Also if you fx want to calculate a perimeter or area of a square you should use 
72.

At least on a Mac

To have the ruler appear "lifelike" I use 72/2.54 * 1.52 on an iMac 27

I have experimentet in a drawing app and found 152% to be lifelike on the screen
So in my case at 152% I see exactly what comes out of the printer.

Michael

Leonardo Bezier. How to bring your own Bezier in

[Michael Kristensen]

How to bring your own Bezier drawing in!

As far as I know the drawing app Canvas is the only program that lets you 
export the Bezier Control Points of a Bezier as a textlist.

Mac Trail: http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/1924/canvas
Not working on OSX 10.7

PC Trail: http://www.acdsee.com/en/products/canvas-12

Open the Canvas Trail ( I have nothing to do with that company)

Use the pentool to draw your Bezier.

Make sure you are using pixel as your Unit

When you have finished your drawing go to:

MENU: Object / Object Path Editor / PopupMenu / Copy

Now you have all the Bezier Control Points in memory


Use this script to parse the data in memory in Livecode

on ClipToBezier
   put the clipBoardData[text] into xxx
   
   replace "," with "." in xxx
   
   set the itemDel to tab
   
   repeat with i = 1 to number of lines of xxx
  put trunc(item 1 of line i of xxx) into item 1 of line i of xxx
  put trunc(item 2 of line i of xxx) into item 2 of line i of xxx
   end repeat

   replace tab with "," in xxx
   
   put xxx
end ClipToBezier


Now you have a pointList that LiveCode can work with.

You can then replace the points in Custom Prop LeoPoints with your own.

Automatic object resizing on card changes

[John Brozycki]

Hello,

Given a resizable stack with, say, two cards that both have objects that have 
their geometry set to scale on resize (like a text field) what is the best way 
to get objects on card 2 to automatically resize when card one is resized and 
then a button is selected to go to card 2?  It doesn't do this automatically- 
you have to resize the second card.  Make the second card much larger than the 
first was, and when you go back the objects on the first card are all off.  
With each card, you have to manually resize for the objects to adjust properly. 
 Shouldn't this happen automatically when you configure the geometry settings?  
I've tried using revWChangeWindowSize on my button to the next card, but it 
doesn't appear to do anything for object sizing.  Sorry if this is a basic 
question, but I can't find how to do this.

Much thanks,
John

Access contacts on iOS?

[Ben Rubinstein]

I can't see any reference to this in the documentation - but that includes a 
reference to the fact that it isn't implemented.


(There is a keyboard type named "contact", identified as "the phone contact 
pad keyboard" - I couldn't see anything special about it.)


Does anyone know if there's any way to access the Contacts on iOS?

Many thanks,

Ben

Re: text size and HTMLtext

[Devin Asay]

Hi 吉野 孝,

You will have to set the text size of the text chunks inside the field, rather 
than the field itself. It can be a little tricky.

You can try: set the textSize of line 1 of fld "ja" to nn

Or you can try modifying the htmlText of the field:

replace "size=" & quote & nn in fld "ja" with "size=" & quote & xx

You have to experiment a little bit, but you can make it work. I did it a 
couple of years ago with a project that required Chinese text.

Hope this helps.

Devin

[OT] Excessive Wireless Traffic from iPhone running iOS5

[Pete]

A couple of weeks ago, I noticed an occasional  huge slowdown in internet
access from home.  Whenever this occurred, it was obvious from the lights
on my wireless router that a huge amount of wireless traffic was happening.

In true old-fashioned trouble shooting mode, I tried to figure out what
might have changed in any computer setups in my home.  The only thing that
I could come up with was that my wife upgraded her iPhone to ios5 round
about the time this started happening.

>From the circumstances, I believe this is happening when the iPhone is
syncing wirelessly with iTunes on my wife's Mac laptop.  That only happens
over WiFi and when the phone is charging, both of which are the case when
this wireless traffic problem occurs.  I verified this by switching off
WiFi on the iuPhone last time this happened and sure enough, the wireless
traffic stopped.

Have any of you iPhone users experienced anything similar to this?
 Obviously there has to be WiFi traffic for the iPhone to sync, but there
isn't that much data on my wife's iPhone so I'm not understanding the
extreme wireless activity.

Meantime my Android phone has been wireless syncing perfectly for
months.

Re: Automatic object resizing on card changes

[Björnke von Gierke]

on opencard
   revUpdateGeometry
end opencard


Note: it is generally saver to write your own resize handlers. The geometry 
manger will sooner or later mess up, and strew your objects into random 
locations (negative or huge numbers, offscreen, huge mess!). I suggest to 
instead write your own resize code. That is a bit more upfront, but at least 
you know what goes wrong when it doesn't look as it should. For example:

--in the card script
on openCard
  resizeStack the width of this card, the height of this card
end openCard

--resizeStack is a built in handler
--it also happens when the user uses the OS-given resize capabilities of a 
window
on resizeStack theWidth theHeight
  set the rect of field "example" to 0,64,theWidth,theHeight --fills whole 
card, leaves space for controls at top
  set the right of button "example" to (theWidth - 16) -- right align a button
end resizeStack

Re: Automatic object resizing on card changes

[Mark Schonewille]

Hi John,

This really depends on the situation. Here's a very simple example:

on resizeStack
  put the rect if this cd into myRect
  add 16 to item 1 of myRect
  add 16 to item 2 of myRect
  subtract 16 from item 3 of myRect
  subtract 16 from item 4 of myRect
  set the rect of fld 1 to myRect
end resizeStack

By setting object sizes and positions relative to the card rect, you avoid many 
problems. If e.g. you calculate the new points based on the current points 
relative to the card rect, your objects will slowly change location:

// wrong
on resizeStack theOldW,theOldH,theNewW,theNewH
  put the loc of fld 1 into myLoc
  put item 1 of fld myLoc / theOldW into myRatio
  put myRatio * theNewW & comma & item 2 of myLoc into myNewLoc
  set the loc of fld 1 to myNewLoc
end resizeStack

The script above will eventually round off the loc of the object and the 
location may be off by one pixel. Instead, try to find a way to set the 
location directly:

// correct
on resizeStack
  set the loc of fld 1 to item 1 of the loc of this cd & comma & item 2 of the 
loc of fld 1
end resizeStack

The second (quite obvious) approach will never cause rounding problems. Btw, 
the second and third script change the location of a field horizontally, 
relative to the right side of a card, keeping the field horizontally centered.

Re: Nice Leonardo da Vinci Bezier, just a click away

[stephen barncard]

Answering my own dumb question:

on deleteAllGrcs

  put the number of grcs in cd 1 of stack "leo" into ngcs

  repeat with n = ngcs down to 1

delete grc n of cd 1 of stack "leo"

  end repeat

end deleteAllGrcs


the "down to" form is used in the loop is as I am using "the number of" to
determine the existing grcs in a container (is there any other way?) and
 "the number of" order would change every time the first item is deleted..

Synving wirelessly to her Mac or syncing wirelessly to iCloud? iOS5 devices 
only sync to iCloud when on WIFI so turning of WIFI would give exactly the

looking for a co-presenter...

[Colin Holgate]

On November 12th I'm going to present at the weekly Live LiveCode Code meeting, 
showing off Director. When I showed Unity and Flash I had a co-presenter who 
showed LiveCode doing some of the features those other tools are known for. 
Those meetings went well.

For a partner to show LiveCode doing Director's string points, I was hoping to 
find someone who can show LiveCode handling some of the media types that 
Director can handle. Some are easy enough, others are not. Here are the media 
types Director can play, that LiveCode isn't known for handling:

Custom color palettes.
Byte Arrays
Flash movies
3D
RealMedia
Windows Media
MP4
FLV
F4V
Fonts
DVD-Video
Animated GIFs

There are several other things it handles, but that LiveCode can also use.

So, would anyone be interested in trying to show LiveCode using any of those 
kinds of media?

Thanks.

needs saving

[Peter M. Brigham, MD]

Anyone know what the IDE uses to decide whether to ask about saving a stack 
when it closes? I'm trying to implement a "markDirty" routine for the Mac. I 
have a frontscript that catches (then passes) closefield and sets the 
modifiedMark of the stack, but that won't catch field contents modified by 
script, or changed customprops, etc, unless I comb through over 30,000 lines of 
code to find all the places where I change the contents of the stack, and 
insert a "markDirty" command. If I could intercept whatever message the IDE 
uses for this it would simplify things immensely.

Re: looking for a co-presenter...

[Mark Schonewille]

Hi Colin,

I think playing those media types in LiveCode is a big PITA. MP4 can be played 
with QT. Some others in the browser plugin, if some requirements are met. If 
your main goal is to display different media types, rather than user 
interaction, text manipulation, database querying etc, then Director probably 
has a big advantage over LiveCode. Maybe that's why it is difficult to find a 
co-presenter?

Re: needs saving

[Mark Schonewille]

Hi Peter,

As soon as a field gets focused, revolution puts "edited" into 
gRevStackStatus[short name of this stack]. That's a very bad trick and means 
that your stack is almost always "edited".

A much better way is to calculate the hash of relevant data and compare this 
with a new hash value. If the two hash values are different, then you need to 
set the dirty flag.

Re: needs saving

[Peter M. Brigham, MD]

Right. Then I have to figure out what to hash, which is do-able. But it doesn't 
answer the most important question: I need to trap a general message to trigger 
this so as to set the dirty flag on the window. I suppose the backup plan would 
be a send-in-time handler to check the hash periodically -- this means the 
hashing test would have to be very fast so as not to interrupt user input 
perceptibly. To be really complete, I'd probably want to get the hash of the 
whole stack, but I can't find a way to do that. The sha1digest() and 
md5digest() functions both expect a string input. I'd hate to have to script a 
concatenation of all fields and customprops, and I'd have to comb through a 
bunch of scripts to make sure that that would capture all the possible changes 
a user could make anyway. Even if I solve those problems, I'm still looking for 
a message to trigger the thing, though.

Re: Automatic object resizing on card changes

[John Brozycki]

A big thanks to BvG and Mark for your replies.

Not only did BvG provide the "quick and dirty" answer:

on opencard
 revUpdateGeometry
end opencard

...but both BvG and Mark provided sample code code for handling resizing on 
your own.

Thanks!  I really appreciate it, guys!

Not so much, as it only gets triggered when closing the stack, and I want to 
set the dirty flag immediately when the user changes some content. Or as 
immediately as possible.

Re: Nice Leonardo da Vinci Bezier, just a click away

[AcidJazz]

Hi.  Can you tell me (briefly) how to get those points into a customproperty?  
The lessons.runrev.com site is down.  I've got the property window open, and
it was easy to create a new property called LeoPoints, but I'm not sure how
to get the actual points into that new property.  I expected a button in the
property window called "edit" and I'd just paste them in, but apparently
not...

Thanks,
  Mark

Mark,

Just select the new custom property, click in the field at the bottom, and 
paste. That's it.

Alternatively, paste the points into a field, then use the message box:

  set the leoPoints of btn "leoButton" to field "thefieldwiththepoints"

What Mark says is basically right, and I did think of simplifying the demands. 
Would someone be willing to show scripting and examples of using QuickTime to 
handle a range of these media types? And also RevBrowser to handle almost any 
content (which could include Flash, Director, and Unity files)?

Re: text size and HTMLtext

[Devin Asay]

Hi 吉野 孝,

Rule 1 when doing Japanese unicode in LiveCode--always listen to Kenji!

Here's my own take:

You will have to set the text size of the text chunks inside the field, rather 
than the field itself. It can be a little tricky.

You can try: set the textSize of line 1 of fld "ja" to nn

Or you can try modifying the htmlText of the field:

replace "size=" & quote & nn in fld "ja" with "size=" & quote & xx

You have to experiment a little bit, but you can make it work. I did it a 
couple of years ago with a project that required Chinese text.

Hope this helps.

Devin

Externals Enquiry

[Andre Garzia]

Folks,

Since the new external sdk for iOS, I know many here are working on their
own externals. Those that wish, could please reply to this email talking
briefly about what they are building? I am trying to get a broad picture on
the externals that are being built or that are already done. I am not
looking for anything, just curious.

Cheers

Hi,

is there a way to print to the default printer under windows from livecode 
script without selecting the printer by the user first?

I want to  create a tool which prints status messages unattended to the default 
windows printer. The tool is started automatically with windows. There shall 
not be any user interaction.

iOS and Go Stack URL?

Hello All!

Is it possible to open a remote stack in iOS via Go Stack URL …? I'm thinking 
no…but I thought I'd ask :-)

Thank you!

Yes, it is possible. Use the go command, but without "in the window of".

It's a long thread, with much guessing, and trying things in the simulator. 
But, the trick doesn't work on an actual iPhone.

Re: iOS and Go Stack URL?

[Colin Holgate]

Correction to myself. If you try the stack in LiveCode, then make an app, it 
doesn't work. If you make an app without trying the stack, then the app does 
download and open the stack.

There is code in the stack, but it's trying to put MobGUI into use, which I 
don't have. So whether the code is trying to work and then failing, or failing 
to work altogether, I'm not sure. I'll change it to point to a different stack.

Ok, it does definitely work in a local test. Not sure whether the App Store 
process would spot that you are loading a code document from the web.

Colin,

Which stack are you talking about?

AFAIK it should just work on both the simulator and the iPhone. I tried it and 
it worked (in LC 4.6.1).

Re: Passing Ampersand and Dot to PostGreSQL - MySQL

[Web Admin Himalayan Academy]

Andre showed the way: use LiveCode's native databinding methods instead 
of my old fashioned replacement strings and the values are automatically 
escaped.


On 11/2/11 11:44 AM, Pete wrote:

Interesting.  I don't have Postgres but I tried an insert into an SQLite

mySQL.  This was on my desktop machine though, not over the web.

The docs for SQLite,mySQL, and Postgres only mention the need to escape the
single-quote character within a string, not any other special characters.

What's the error you get back?

I'm having some difficulty with passing data from a web form to a
PostGreSQL database. I'm using iRev on the server and gFormData has all the
data in the array. After handling all the data, running the CC charges,
sending notifications, everything works, but my final functions to insert
the data into the database fail in certain cases.

i use this method to build the query:


put "INSERT INTO donations (first_name, last_name, anonymous,
email_address, "   into  tSQLQuery
put "addr1, addr2, city, state, postal_code, country, phone_no,
created_on, " after tSQLQuery
put " entry_point, comment, amount, monetra_user, monetra_msg, cc_no) "
after tSQLQuery
put "VALUES ('#FIRST_NAME', '#LAST_NAME', '#ANONYMOUS', '#EMAIL_ADDRESS',
"  after  tSQLQuery
Put "'#ADDR1', '#ADDR2', '#CITY', '#STATE', '#POSTAL_CODE', '#COUNTRY',
'#PHONE_NO', '#CREATED_ON', " after tSQLQuery
Put "'#ENTRY_POINT', '#COMMENT', '#AMOUNT', '#MONETRA_USER',
'#MONETRA_MSG', '#CC_NO');" after tSQLQuery

the poke it like this:

replace "#FIRST_NAME" with gFormData["first_name"]  in tSQLQuery
replace "#COMMENT" with gFormData["comment"]  in tSQLQuery
replace "#EMAIL_ADDRESS" with gFormData["email_address"]  in tSQLQuery

when the data in the array values contain certain characters, the
insertion query fails.

I have been able to definitively diagnose at least two cases (there are
probably more)

if the data contains an ampersand or a dot, the query fails  e.g these
will all cause the insertion to fail:

 First Name:  Ravi&  Sheela # ampersand

 Comment: All the books&  audio [etc.]  # ampersand

 email address: gail.w...@verizon.com  # dot in the email address.

so, I'm not sure what to do.

  I need to escape all the special chars (I don't even have a list of what
they are) in the gFormData array values that will break the SQL query. And
we also have to block SQL injection attempts at the same time

My "baby xTalk"  method would be tortuous: for each key/value in the
gFormData array

put gFormData["first_name"]  in tFirstName

put fixBadChars(tFirstName) into tFirstName

replace "#FIRST_NAME" with tFirstName  in tSQLQuery

function fixBadChars pString

replace "&" with "and" in pString
  # and more of these which I don't even know what they would be
  # and replacing the dot in the email will mean the email is wrong
after insertion
return pString

end fixBadChars

I'm sure this has been dealt with already... Does anyone have a "escape
input data for SQL insertion"   library they can share?

Thanks!

Re: iOS and Go Stack URL?

That thread has a link to a zip file, that downloads a stack called "Download 
Stack". If you try it in LiveCode, to see it in action before trying it in the 
simulator or on a phone, it fails to work, and then if you try on a phone it 
still doesn't work. If you download the zip file again, and don't test it, but 
instead make an app right away, then it works.

Yes. See "printerName" in the dictionary. You also might need to set the 
"printerOutput". You can also get and set many specific printer 
functions with the "printerFeatures" property.

Whoops. I wrote that stack and didn't notice that I'd left MobGUI in as a 
substack. It doesn't need it :) Plus I didn't do an environment test in the 
script to make sure it ran only in iOS - it was a quick hack to demonstrate a 
point.

Resizing on Lion

[Sivakatirswami]

Can anyone confirm that standalone stacks built  with 4.6.1, which have 
resizing on, fail to resize under Lion?


I have an in - house version control app that manages all InDesign files 
for our editorial team. Those who upgrade to Lion say the resizing does 
not work


I myself am avoiding upgrading to Lion for as long as I possibly can.
