Actually now that I think of it I believe I had to disable saving stacks in ANY

I had this issue, because I was attempting to save from a standalone, and the 
permissions were not set for writing to the place I was saving the stacks to. I 
had to disable stack saving in Windows to prevent the CDT.

Re: tree view hide key

[Bob Sneidar via use-livecode]

You and others have addressed a lot of the work I think, and thank you for that 
by the way. One of the things I would like to see is something akin to 
findRecord and findIndex in a datagrid. Of course, finding something several 
levels in requires that you would need to return not just a number, but a root 
node with the path to the found item, so you can reference it in the future, 
getting and setting anything in the "path". 

I wanted to create a list of items with a name and value, but then I realized I 
wanted to rearrange them, moving them up and down in the list. I also wanted to 
be able to double-click an item and put the value into another field. I call 
the feature "QuickNotes" where I have a pallette like stack I can double click 
text snippets to fill in a field with text I type often, as in a copier 
installation. 

In the end I used a datagrid so no big deal, but it left me wondering why I 
would ever use a tree view. But as you mentioned a lot of work is being done on 
it now. I cannot switch over to 9.1 yet because I made a custom change in the 
datagrid behavior which allows me to nest behaviors, so until that gets bundled 
into a release I cannot test any new changes (at least not with my current 
project).

Re: Mysteries of Me

[Bob Sneidar via use-livecode]

Me is resolving correctly for me in stack, card and behavior scripts attached 
to them. The issue I think was that you cannot seem to reference card  of me 
in a stack script handler. So I created handlers that return the parent card or 
stack of an object. The object can be the long id of a card even, when getting 
the parent stack, and that you can use in any reference so far as I know. 

All it's doing is forcing the full card ID or stack name resolution so the 
parser doesn't need to use fuzzy logic.

Re: Large files crash on Windows 10

[tbodine via use-livecode]

Hi,

I develop a stack that is now up to 35 MBs on a Windows 10 machine without
any crashes like you described. I use LC 7.1.4 Indy for this. I also
distribute standalones built with this stack and it is also stable on
Windows 10.

When you have these crashes, do you find the artifact ~ file that indicates
the Save process was interrupted or has failed?  Does the stack file become
corrupted?

That´s how i am doing it, because pressing the test button in LC with the 
simulator not running produces here exact the same problems. First there are 
these notification messages that the simulator does not respond  or takes to 
long to start(or something like that - you all know that message) and i have to 
choose if want to continue. If i acknowledge to continue, then  the message 
appears after some time again and so on.

When i press the button to not continue, the simulator hangs. At least it does 
not respond for a very long time. I have to use the activity monitor to quit  
the simulator.

If i open the simulator first and wait until the iOS device is started 
completely, then i can test the LC app without a problem.

Unfortunately i very often forget to start the simulator first and and that 
then takes time i could use more useful.

I haven't, but I used a regular form with two radio buttons. At first it 
said:


Please show us you are human:
x I am a human
x I'm a robot

Within 24 hours I received spam from a bot. So I changed it to:

Please choose the correct answer:

x I think, therefore I am

And in the last several years I haven't had a single bot find the form. 
The key, I believe, is to avoid any use of bot keywords like "human", 
"person", "robot", "bot" or anything else similar. The above looks like

Just out of interest, did you try with LC 9.0 on Mac OS X also and is there a 
reason why you do not use 9.0.1?

LiveCode Pseudo Captcha?

[Rick Harrison via use-livecode]

Hi there,

I wanted to know if anyone has created a
Captcha type solution just using LiveCode?

(I am not a fan of Javascript as many users
turn it off for security reasons.)

I’m thinking some kind of pictures oriented
approach might be fun, but I am also wondering
what the best approach might be if I have to
roll my own version.

Any thoughts, suggestions, or ideas for
such a LiveCode server solution?

Thanks,

Re: Continual iOS Simulator Problems

Does the emulator itself not work?

Or does your app not run on the emulator?

You can either hit the test button to run it on an open emulator.

But you can also create a standalone on mac and drag the the standalone 
file to the emulator (or was a real device) anyway can't remember but i 
did drag it towards devices in Xcode


But your Provisioning Profile is OK?

Large files crash on Windows 10

[DAVID Epstein via use-livecode]

Does anyone else have problems dealing with large files on Windows 10?  My main 
LiveCode tool is a stack of about 1.5 MB, and I use it to create, save, and 
open LiveCode stacks that store text and graphics.  These "content" stacks can 
be anywhere from a few kilobytes to 50 MB or more.  On an iMac, these all run 
smoothly.  On Windows 10, my larger content stacks (>10 MB) will sometimes 
close unexpectedly, or crash LiveCode entirely.  The typical trigger is either 
executing a save command, or clicking on a list of cards to navigate to a card 
that contains a large table of text.
Does anyone have relevant experiences or suggested remedies or ways of better 
diagnosing the problem?

Perhaps relevant is that on the Mac I mostly use LC 5.5, on Windows 10 I am 
using LC Community 9.0 (dp4).

Many thanks.

Re: tree view hide key

[Mike Kerner via use-livecode]

I was thinking about using it for a directory view.  It seemed like a
natural fit - nodes are subdirectories and leaves are files.  You can't
just limit the hiliteChanged event to leaves, so you have to be able to
determine if the user clicked on a leaf or a node, and if it's a node
behave differently than if it's a leaf.
Nodes can't have values in the tree view, so using numeric keys and setting
the values to the filenames and telling the user to ignore the keys won't
work because the subfolder name won't even appear in the tree view if you
do that.  You could fake it by appending a fake key on the front of the
subfolder name, I suppose, but we're rapidly approaching "why not just use
a table field or dg" at that point, and I really don't want the key and the
value both appearing anyway.
In order to not have a key and a value appearing you have to set the keys
to the file (and subfolder) names.  In that case, though, you don't know if
the user just clicked on a leaf or a node, unless you go back to the array
and inspect it.

Re: Mysteries of Me

[J. Landman Gay via use-livecode]

A guess: "me" resolves correctly for controls only. Stacks and cards are 
not controls, so behaviors attached to those resolve to the behavior script 
itself. Since there are no cards in a behavior script, it fails. Maybe.

Re: tree view hide key

[Brian Milby via use-livecode]

Tree view displays a LiveCode array, so everything is key-value.  What you
are running up against is that the value is either a string or an array.
What are you wanting to use as a key?  How are you storing the data now
prior to presentation?

That is probably the single issue that can't be readily addressed.  If you
can represent your data as a LiveCode array where keys are sorted either
numerically or alphabetically, then the tree view widget can present the
data.  Extending the widget to hide the value would not be that difficult
though.

In the tree view, non-leaf nodes have the disclosure triangle.  Are you
talking about when you get the hilitedElement?

Thanks,
Brian

system date also works with the long system date?

[Klaus major-k via use-livecode]

Hi friends,

quick question, see subject, just to be sure.
Maybe someone can confirm this.


Problem, LC on ANDROID still does not support the system date,
so sorting by date in a datagrid does not work for non-english dates.

This just one of the inconveniences resulting from this missing feature

Who also thinks this SHOULD work on Android (4 years after the confirmed 
report), 
please consider to add comment here: 



Best

Klaus

Re: tree view hide key

[Mike Kerner via use-livecode]

• Nodes can't have both keys and values, only leaves can
• You can't hide the key
• Hiding the key is kind of important if you're trying to use it for a
directory tree view.  Working around this requires assigning keys only but
no values, but if you do that then you can't figure out (without looking at
the array) whether you are dealing with a leaf or a node.

On the first day, God created the heavens and the Earth
On the second day, God created the oceans.
On the third day, God put the animals on hold for a few hours,
   and did a little diving.
And God said, "This is good."
