OK, it also turns out that there is another issue, namely that LC doesn't
seem to track ctrl presses in the SE.  On other platforms it looks like it
treats ctrl like cmd but on the mac it just ignores it.  Once I've got it
tested and working on all platforms, I'll submit a pull request.  There's
no sense in having a shortcut on a platform that doesn't work because it
conflicts with an OS shortcut.

Re: "lightening" a color

2016-09-10 Thread J. Landman Gay

On 9/10/16 5:00 PM, Dr. Hawkins wrote:

Is there a way to "lighten" a color.


This showed up on the list some time ago:

function lightenColor origColor
  try
repeat with i = 1 to 3
  add 50 to item i of origColor
  if item i of origColor > 255 then put 255 into item i of origColor
  if item i of origColor < 0 then put 0 into item i of origColor
end repeat
return origColor
  catch tSomeErr
return origColor
  end try
end lightenColor

I also made this note from StackOverflow, which I haven't quite wrapped 
my head around yet:


For combining 2 colours using RGB values, there are 2 ways.

If you need a lighter texture, the formulae you need to use is (r1, 
g1, b1) + (r2, g2, b2) = (min(r1+r2, 255), min(g1+g2, 255), min(b1+b2, 255))


If you need a slightly darker texture , use (r1, g1, b1) + (r2, g2, 
b2) = ((r1 + r2) / 2, (g1 + g2) / 2, (b1 + b2) / 2)

ANN: new glx2 script editor now on line

2016-09-10 Thread ahsoftware

Zombie alert: the dead glx2 script editor has come back to life.

From the release notes:

2016.09.10 GLX2 3.0.19



Fraser Gordon and I sat down for half an hour at the LiveCode 16 
conference in Edinburgh and figured out what was causing the problem 
with taking up the CPU cycles. The engine problem still isn't fixed, but 
that gave me enough knowledge of what's going on to come up with a 
workaround for it, so I'm bringing this project back on line.


http://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=16880



new features:



Line numbers. Yes, finally.

Unit test generation. Click a command declaration, then select from the 
contextual menu. The tests will be created in a file named "tests.text" 
in the same directory as the stack file.


Documentation generation. Inline javadoc-style - select from the 
contextual menu.


Pressing enter on a compiled script closes the tab ala the built-in 
editor. I never thought that was a thing.




bugs fixed:



Lots of little things I had time to fix up while waiting.

For one thing, the splitter bar between the handlers and script panels 
is more accessible now.




known issues:



Line wrapping doesn't change the line numbering. If you turn on line 
wrapping, the line numbers after a line wraps will be wrong. I don't 
currently know any way of telling when a line is being wrapped.


Still some problems recognizing that text inside a block comment is not 
actionable.


Swapping back and forth between glx2 and the IDE's script editor gets a 
bit wonky.


Very little testing has been done on any Windows platform. If it works, 
it works.



Also, I haven't quite figured out placement of the status bar in 
conjunction with Richard Gaskin's 4Wdevolution vertical menu bar.

Here's a tint function from way back.  pRGB is an RGB triplet, pValue is a
decimal percent value for the desired tint of the color.

function colorTint pRGB, pValue
   -- pRGB is RGB triplet
   -- pValue is between 0 and 1
   put pRGB into theTint
   repeat with N = 1 to 3
  put item N of pRGB into theColorItem
  put round ((1- pValue) * theColorItem + (pValue * 255)) into item N
of theTint
   end repeat
   return theTint
end colorTint

Re: "lightening" a color

2016-09-10 Thread Tore Nilsen
Since white in the rgb space is made by adding max value of all three primary 
colours, and getting the colour will give you a list of numerical values in the 
form of 255,0,0 for maximum red, 0,255,0 for maximum green and 0,0,255 for 
maximum blue, you can always change any of these values to produce a paler 
shade.

You can either decrease the value for the primary colour you want but this will 
very soon change the colour to a darker colour, or you can increase the value 
of the other colours. If you increase the value of the other colours, setting 
the different amount of these will give a different colour, not a paler shade 
of the original colour.

If you start out with a maximum red colour (255,0,0) and change the values of 
green and blue to 128 each, you will get a pink colour (255,128,128). The same 
goes for green (128,255,128) and blue (128,128,255). The higher the value of 
the two colours you change, the lighter the overall result.

Tore

Have you considered just changing the border color
of the object?  If you made the border wider, and then
changed the color a little that might be the best way
to indicate to the user that they are using a different
selection.  It would certainly be a lot easier than
changing the color of the entire beast.

Hope that helps!

LC usually maps the Control key on other platforms to the Command key (I 
guess now called the Apple key) on Mac.


Here I get SE tab navigation with Ctrl-Tab, since I'm in a PC and have 
no Command Key.


Haven't tried Peter's script (my Mac is resting this afternoon) but 
these functions often cause confusion because on a PC ControlKey() and 
CommandKey() are synonymous, but IIRC on a Mac ControlKey() returns the 
state of the actual Control key, treating the Command key separately.

Hi Peter

VCard is a pig. I have a set of handlers that do an import and export for
VCard3.0 if you want them. You will have to edit app-specific object
references, but they are pretty obvious.

I cannot help you with vCal.

If interested, perhaps contact me off-list.

Best regards
