Re: [OT] Any way to do simple texture maps?
Hi Geoff, You want to use a LiveCode implementation of Perlin Noise. Look at these two JavaScript examples: http://www.sjeiti.com/perlin-noise-versus-simplex-noise-in-javascript-final-comparison/ Who, in this mail list, could help to translate Javascript code to LiveCode scripts?

Re: Do new Livecode 8 widgets work on mobile?
Isn't it crazy that given how easy it is to edit and change / fix LiveCode IDE stacks we are still waiting for the mothership to fix simple errors like this instead of patching them and submitting fixes ourselves?

I guess the error is in the revIDEDeployIOSIsValidSDK() function - which I can;t find either. Any tips with regard to how to debug IDE errors - given the debugger seems to get a bit flaky when debugging the IDE - checkpoints are not recognised?

local variable being reset from outside of script
In the script of a behavior button for a field, I have a block of *if* pChFld is empty *then* *breakpoint* *end* *if* *palette* chStk *if* pChFld is empty *then* *breakpoint* *end* *if* where pChFld is declared local outside of and before any handler. This is also the only script anywhere with a pChFld. pChFld contains an id for a field in chStk, and strict compilation is on Supposedly, pChFld will be persistent under such circumstances. Somehow, between the two checks, pChFld changes from holding an id to empty. I have single stepped through the palette statement; there is nothing there. I have tried changing pChFld to a global; no difference. I've wrapped the palette statement with a lock messages/unlock messages, no effect. If I single-step through in the IDE, though, it all works, and pChFld . For that matter, if I put an evil red dot on the first if in this block, and then let the debugger run from there without single-stepping, it works.

But Id like to suggest something particularly cool. Make a sphere in Blender, select it, then Export it as an OBJ file. Then import it to OneRender. OneRender is a scene layout AND cloud rendering platform. It is in beta, and the beta is free. It has some interesting applications both in the commercial and academic markets. The beta access usually requires a PRIVATE INVITE CODE, but lucky for you, I have one that you (or anyone on this list) can use: Sign up on this page: http://www.onerender.com/signup_mirye/ With THIS INVITE CODE: MESHBOX0617 There is a 3 minute video on the sign up page that shows how it works. A sphere is a really simple thing. Just import / upload your sphere and apply a texture to it. You might also want to get on the forum there as ask if anyone has planetary textures. They are running a Star Wars art contest now so I believe somebody should some planetary textures.

Re: Displaying a jpg photo larger than my liveCode window ?
Put the image into a group, size and place the group, then set the lockloc to true. I was going to use mouseMove for this, but I couldn't get it to behave as I liked, and its too early to figure out why, so I used a send loop instead. Add this code to your group: local sMouseLoc on mouseDown put the mouseloc into sMouseLoc -- set the start mouse position setScroll -- start the loop end mouseDown on setScroll if the mouse is down then -- only set the scroll while the mouse is down if item 1 of sMouseLoc > item 1 of the mouseloc then --this if block sets the hscroll set the hscroll of me to the hscroll of me - (item 1 of the mouseloc - item 1 of sMouseLoc) else set the hscroll of me to the hscroll of me + (item 1 of sMouseLoc - item 1 of the mouseloc) end if if item 2 of sMouseLoc > item 2 of the mouseloc then -- this if block sets the vscroll set the vscroll of me to the vscroll of me - (item 2 of the mouseloc - item 2 of sMouseLoc) else set the vscroll of me to the vscroll of me + (item 2 of sMouseLoc - item 2 of the mouseloc) end if put the mouseloc into sMouseLoc send setScroll to me in 50 millisec else put empty into sMouseLoc end if end setScroll Theres no real need to check scroll bounds, the engine handles things just fine. I'm sure this could be greatly improved, but it should give you a general idea.
