Hi,

at http://www.livecode.com  click "DOWNLOAD" in the top menu.

On that download page there is a link at the bottom "View All LiveCode 
Downloads"   

Regards,

Matthias

Re: [Bulk] Re: repeating string

2014-02-06 Thread Dave McKee
I am fed up with this Piper system. This AM, I couldn't connect at all to the 
working piper, when I launched the ios app I was prompted to run wifi setup and 
to double tap the piper power button before connecting to its wifi, BUT after 
selecting the Piper wifi, it never gets the check mark in my wifi settings, 
meaning that my iPhone 5S can not connect to it.

I have tried powering the Piper off and on but I always end up back with being 
unable to connect to the Piper or reconfigure.

Sorry but this system just does NOT work. If I thought I could get my 
investment back, I'd ask for it. This system is sucking down AC and asside from 
warming up the room, does nothing useful.

Thanks. I can see why myself and others keep missing it, and even more 
embarrassingly, in the middle of a rushed night (man, it's been a busy 
season) I'd forgotten that I'd already submitted a usability bug report 
against that link:



The Download page is divided into two halves, with Community on the 
left.  The link labeled "View All LiveCode Downloads" is on the right 
side of the page, under the heading "Commercial Edition".  This is why 
myself and others keep missing that link: we're looking for Community 
builds, and are focused on the links under the Community heading.


If the link were centered on the page it would more clearly indicate 
that it is indeed for Community as well.


That report also includes a suggestion that they put the PDF user guide 
for Server in the download package.  As it is, the package contains only 
a bunch of files with no guidance, requiring the user to go back to 
livecode.com and hunt down the instructions on what to do with those files.


Thanks again.  Going forward I'll try to remember to slow down and 
double-check my bug reports first, and may even put together a mirror 
site at LiveCodeJournal.com which has all the files in one place, along 
with updated docs that includes tips for Dreamhost's unusual 
requirements, permissions for folders, and other tips the community has 
come up with over the years.

Feeling Saucy

2014-02-06 Thread Richmond

When I want to compile something Open Source from code I am generally
able to download it; at which point it normally arrives with me in a ZIP 
file with
instructions as to how to build the thing on a wide variety of 
platforms, as well

as a list of prerequisites and/or dependencies.

I wonder where I should find that sort of ZIP file for the Community 
version of Livecode?

use "of me" instead.  This refers to the current card of the default stack.
So if the handler is running on a card that isn't the front card, you'll
get the short name of the card that IS the front.

of me references the object that contains the script in question.

ReactOS is similar to Haiku insofar as it is on version Alpha something

keeping tabstops intact when exporting an rtf?

2014-02-06 Thread Malte Brill
Hi all,

I am trying to export RTF Text which ideally should look the same as in a 
liveCode field, when importing into a different app. For most what I have set 
up this works, but I am really struggeling with tabstops. I have not yet found 
a way to get the other applications to display my formatting the way a 
liveCodefield would.

Can this be done? Any ideas?

Best,

Malte

As RTF was developed by Microsoft and they have not released all the 
code, I very
much doubt that Livecode is able to export "full" RTF from a textField, 
but a subset

of RTF.

I believe RTF supports column widths, specified in twips if memory serves.

When the tabstops are set only at the field level, it's debatable as to 
whether those should be included in rtfText.


But when the tabstops are set at the paragraph level, as we can do in 
v5.5.4 and later, IMO those should definitely be included in the output 
rtfText.


It seems that currently neither form of tabstops affects the rtfText of 
a field.


Care to submit an enhancement request for that?

[ANN] Installer Maker 1.8.2 update

2014-02-06 Thread Mark Schonewille

Hi (again),

A new version of Installer Maker has been released. This update, 1.8.2, 
is now made available not only as a Plugin for LiveCode but also as a 
standalone application for users of Xojo, HyperStudio, Prezy, SuperCard 
and other cross-platform RAD tools.


Installer Maker 1.8.2 allows for saving all settings in a profile. This 
profile can later be read from disk and re-used for your project again. 
This way, you don't need to re-enter all settings and options every time 
you make your installer. You do need to import your new files. Note that 
this is a new feature, which we expect to improve in the near future. We 
appreciate your feedback.


Additionally, it is no longer possible to accidentally associate the 
.exe file extension with your executable. We have received 2 reports of 
users trying to associate the .exe file extension. Although it should be 
obvious that the .exe file extension whould not be associated with any 
software, we have decided to disallow the .exe file extension from now on.


The plug-in can only be used with LiveCode 4.5 - 5.x and the commercial 
version of LiveCode 6 and later. The standalone version of Installer 
Maker can be used with (almost) any development software package.


Once in a while, we receive a feature request, bug report or other 
comments. If you decide to send an e-mail about Installer Maker, please 
include extensive descriptions of the features you request or the bugs 
you encounter with pictures and other relevant files.


The standalone version of Installer Maker can be downloaded here:
http://www3.economy-x-talk.com/file.php?node=installer-maker

The plug-in version of Installer Maker for LiveCode can be downloaded here:

Re: keeping tabstops intact when exporting an rtf?

2014-02-06 Thread BNig
Hi Malte,

in a very short test on a Mac exporting rtfText of a field into a file tabs
were seen by TextEdit, but not by Word 2008 for Mac, they were displayed as
underscores.
When exporting the same 2 line 6 word text from TextEdit as formatted text
Word could read it. The only difference I found was that LiveCode uses \'09
for tabs and TextEdit used an acutal tab.
Replacing \'09 with tab in rtfText resulted in a Word-readable file

content of field 1:

apple   pears   oranges
one two three
-
on mouseUp
   put the rtfText of field 1 into tData
   replace "\'09" with tab in tData
   put specialFolderPath("desktop") & "/" & "rtfTest.rtf" into tPath
   put tData into url ("file:" & tPath)
end mouseUp
---

I am not claiming this solves all problems but for this very simple example
it worked.

Kind regards
Bernd

Re: keeping tabstops intact when exporting an rtf?

2014-02-06 Thread Malte Brill
Thanks for your replies guys!

@Richmond: You may be right. it looks like a PITA, but RTF seems to be the only 
formatted option that is somewhat portable to other apps...
@Richard: I guess an enhancment request is a good idea
@Bernd: My Problem was (/is) to keep the tabs aligned across lines / 
paragraphs. 

One of the major Problem seems to be that liveCode creates a paragraph for each 
line, while this is not necessariely needed. I am still reading into the rtf 
specs (boy, that is confusing).

I managed to get something working cross applications and cross OS, that fits 
my purpose.

I came up with this:

on mouseUp
   local tHeader
   local tBody
   put "Short"&TAB&"Test" into fld "theRTFText" 
   put  cr&"Longer"&TAB&"Test" after fld "theRTFText"
   put cr&"very very long"&TAB&"Test" after fld "theRTFText"
   set the textStyle of word 1 of line 2 of fld "theRTFText" to "bold"
   set the textColor of word 1 of fld "theRTFText" to "red"
   put line 1 to 2 of the rtfText of fld "theRTFText" into tHeader
   put line 3 to -1 of the rtfText of fld "theRTFText" into tBody
   put cr after tHeader
   put 
"\paperw11900\paperh16840\margl1440\margr1440\vieww10800\viewh8400\viewkind0"  
after tHeader
-- papersetup
   put cr after tHeader
   replace "\pard" with "\pard\tx2647\pardirnatural" in tBody
-- add more tx for more TABSTOPS
   replace "\'09" with "\tab " in tBody -- Word!
   put "\par" before char -1 of tBody
   -- somehow missing in rtfText. Wordpad on Win complains if this is not there
   ask file "Save RTF file..."
   put tHeader & tBody into URL ("binfile:"&it)
end mouseUp

All the best,

Malte

Re: GPS Speed on IOS

2014-02-06 Thread Guglielmo Braguglia

Hi,
you don't have to "calculate" speed ...
... starting from, if I remember, LiveCode 6.1, you have "speed" (and 
"course") included in Location info. From old iOS release notes :


"Location -- a comma separated list of the latitude, longitude and 
altitude of the device. If detailed is true an array containing the keys 
latitude, longitude, altitude, time stamp, horizontal accuracy, vertical 
accuracy, speed and course is returned.
If the latitude and longitude could not be measured, those values 
together with the horizontal accuracy key will not be present. If the 
altitude could not be measured, that value together with the vertical 
accuracy will not be present."


Hope this help.

[OT] PopClip for Mac - a very useful utility

2014-02-06 Thread James Hale
I must admit I really enjoy trying out new utilities and apps on my Mac.
Recently I came across this little gem PopClip.
It basically replicates the pop up menu seen in iOS when any text is selected.
Select some text and there it is, ready to ignore or click on one of its 
options.

I mention it here as I have recently returned to LC and have found how useful 
it is while editing scripts.

Anyway you can check it out here: http://pilotmoon.com/popclip/
Or go to the Mac App Store. At $4.99 it is pretty cheap.

Re: Relayering a control

What I do Pete is to make a list of all the controls but filter out any 
controls that are part of a group (by checking the owner). Then I take 
into account whether the object I want to move is a group or single 
control in the same way. Then use the relayer command - "relayer control 
A before control B." That way you won't move single controls in and out 
of other groups. But maybe there's a more elegant way?

Setting a fade in/out of a group

2014-02-06 Thread Peter Bogdanoff
Hi,

Does a group receive mouse messages the same way as another control, such as a 
button?

I have a control panel that I want to fade in and out with mouse enter and 
leave. The control panel is a group containing a number of buttons. I have a 
group script with mouseEnter and mouseLeave handlers to to do the fade of the 
group.

The group script seems to receive the mouse messages from the individual 
buttons within the group (as expected). But I only want the group itself to 
respond to the mouse. If I trap the mouseEnter and mouseLeave messages in each 
element of the group nothing happens. The group itself doesn't seem to respond 
to the mouse.

Without the trapped messages in each element the problem is a strobing effect 
as the mouse is moved horizontally and enters and leaves the individual 
buttons. Again, trapping those messages makes nothing happen as the group 
itself doesn't seem to be responding to the mouse movement.

I'm using LC 6.1.3.

Thanks,

Peter Bogdanoff

2014-02-06 Thread Geoff Canyon
If your setup looks like this:

group id 1007 [1007]
|  button "Button" [1004]
|  button "Button" [1009]
group id 1011 [1011]
|  button "Button" [1010]
|  button "Button" [1012]

Then this:

on mouseUp
   set relayergroupedcontrols to true
   set the layer of btn 2 to 7
end mouseUp

will give the desired result:

group id 1007 [1007]
|  button "Button" [1004]
group id 1011 [1011]
|  button "Button" [1010]
|  button "Button" [1012]
button "Button" [1009]

But if your setup is this:

group id 1007 [1007]
|  button "Button" [1004]
|  button "Button" [1009]
group id 1011 [1011]
|  button "Button" [1010]
|  button "Button" [1012]
button "Button" [1016]

it will result in this:

group id 1007 [1007]
|  button "Button" [1004]
group id 1011 [1011]
|  button "Button" [1010]
|  button "Button" [1012]
button "Button" [1016]
button "Button" [1009]

while this:

on mouseUp
   set relayergroupedcontrols to true
   set the layer of btn 2 to 6
end mouseUp

will result in this:

group id 1007 [1007]
|  button "Button" [1004]
group id 1011 [1011]
|  button "Button" [1010]
|  button "Button" [1012]
|  button "Button" [1009]
button "Button" [1016]

I think this will give the desired result in all circumstances:

on mouseUp

   set relayergroupedcontrols to true

   relayer btn 2 after grp 2

end mouseUp
