Re: Debugging modal stacks

This would apply to custom modal dialogs for instance. Non-modal continues executing the script that called it. Sure, if you're debugging the interaction of the calling stack with the modal, then that's an added degree of difficulty. My suggestion assumes the goal is to debug the modal itself. ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
Re: TemplateStacks or SubStacks, Which is better?
Hi Cal, The templateStack is something that only exists in memory. A templateStack is only displayed when you make a new stack. A substack can exist both in memory and on disk and you don't need to make a new stack to display it. What you will use, depends on what you want to do. Perhaps you tell a little more about that? -- Best regards, Mark Schonewille Economy-x-Talk Consulting and Software Engineering Homepage: http://economy-x-talk.com Twitter: http://twitter.com/xtalkprogrammer KvK: 50277553 Installer Maker for LiveCode: http://qery.us/468 Buy my new book Programming LiveCode for the Real Beginner http://qery.us/3fi LiveCode on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/runrev/ On 4/15/2014 06:24, Cal Horner wrote: There comes a time in the use of LiveCode when you run across the concept of a template stack or a substack as a entry/data display form.

Re: 500 ms to set a thumbpos??
Even on windows 8, everything post 6.5 just crwwwls. The ide and any standalone built with the new graphics libs uses an enormous amount of cpu on my laptop. Simply showing a popup menu eats up about 48% of my admittedly under-powered cpu. Anything that involves drawing anything to the screen is god awful slow and if I fiddle too much while it thinks the whole deal crashes. I'm still building with 5.5 until 7 to wait and see if this behavior is corrected later on. Right now, livecode 6.5+ is barely usable for me unless I am using a high end system. I have been having similar issues with the clarify 2 beta and i suspect it is due to the use of the newer engine. Maybe there is something else wrong here for me. I need to try it on some other systems to confirm these problems. But my attempts so far have been that I don't even want to put the newer livecode on some of my better systems.

I have been having similar issues with the clarify 2 beta and i suspect it is due to the use of the newer engine. Andrew, The issue being talked about in this thread and what you describe may be two separate things. 6.6 is when retina support was added for desktop and that caused a big slowdown on machines running in high-dpi mode (Mac or Windows) as many more pixels are being rendered (as many as 4x). RunRev is working to address this as soon as possible. What you describe seems to be something else. 6.5 doesn't have any of the retina changes for desktop but does have the graphics layer changes (as you mentioned). It is my understanding that 6.5 should run at the same speed as previous versions. I wouldn't expect any changes specific to 7.0 to affect what you are seeing, although the speed increase they are working on for retina would probably help. I would *highly* recommend that you submit a bug report about the performance on your machine. Waiting to see if something gets fixed when you haven't filed a report often leads to disappointment :-) -- Trevor DeVore Blue Mango Learning Systems www.screensteps.com-www.clarify-it.com ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode

Re: 500 ms to set a thumbpos??
I assumed incorrectly that the high-dpi features went into 6.5 alongside the new graphics layer. I can parse through data just as fast as before here, but anything where I have to reposition a screen, show a new menu, anything graphics related almost hangs my system unless i give it several minutes to get done thinking about it. I'll eliminate system related issues and look into this further before filing a more accurate bug report if necessary. Thanks.

The ide and any standalone built with the new graphics libs uses an enormous amount of cpu on my laptop. Simply showing a popup menu eats up about 48% of my admittedly under-powered cpu. Anything that involves drawing anything to the screen is god awful slow and if I fiddle too much while it thinks the whole deal crashes. I'm still building with 5.5 until 7 to wait and see if this behavior is corrected later on. Right now, livecode 6.5+ is barely usable for me unless I am using a high end system. I have been having similar issues with the clarify 2 beta and i suspect it is due to the use of the newer engine. Andrew, The issue being talked about in this thread and what you describe may be two separate things. 6.6 is when retina support was added for desktop and that caused a big slowdown on machines running in high-dpi mode (Mac or Windows) as many more pixels are being rendered (as many as 4x). RunRev is working to address this as soon as possible. What you describe seems to be something else. 6.5 doesn't have any of the retina changes for desktop but does have the graphics layer changes (as you mentioned). It is my understanding that 6.5 should run at the same speed as previous versions. I wouldn't expect any changes specific to 7.0 to affect what you are seeing, although the speed increase they are working on for retina would probably help. I would *highly* recommend that you submit a bug report about the performance on your machine.
