You can use binary or script only stacks with Levure. It doesn’t care one
way or the other.  It’s just reading in stack files you add to your app
folder.

Ah. I just assumed it was a bit of mistyping and should have been

"single line of a field"

move cursor to the end of a line in a field addendum

[Douglas A. Ruisaard via use-livecode]

Thanks to all that replied... what a great community!  Actually "select after 
line 1 of the focusedObject" works best for me  .. kinda of a combo of several 
of the suggestions

Re: move cursor to the end of a line in a field

[Tore Nilsen via use-livecode]

And if you have a multiline field and would like to go to the end of the 
current line use this:

on rawKeyDown theKey

if theKey = 65367 then

put word 2 of the selectedLine of me into tLine

select after line tLine of me

else

pass rawKeyDown

end if

end rawKeyDown

You could try this in the field script:

on rawKeyDown theKey
   if theKey = 65367 then
  select after me
   else
  pass rawKeyDown
  end if
end rawKeyDown

This will allow the normal behavior for all other keys when the field is active.

Re: move cursor to the end of a line in a field

[Bob Sneidar via use-livecode]

off the top of my head, select char -1 to -1 of the focusedObject (or me if in 
the script of the field itself). Trouble is I am trying this in the field 
script itself and it doesn’t work, but if I enter select char -1 to -1 of field 
7 in the message box it DOES work.

rotatedText widget and others

[Terence Heaford via use-livecode]

Has anyone tried using this widget?

The “get the formatted height of widget” function does not appear to return the 
correct result.

Whats the point of Livecode providing a widget that does not function correctly.

It may rotate text but try aligning a number of these widgets without the 
dimensions being correct.

A complete waste of my time.

If anyone can provide details that I am missing to get this “so called” widget 
to function correctly I’ll gladly get down on my knees and apologise for this 
rant.




I’ve looked at the line chart widget, not enough functionality for a true line 
chart, rather simplistic.

Pie chart, as line chart.

End of second rant.

——

Are any of these “so called” widgets provided by LC designed to provide any 
true functionality or am I just wasting my time trying to use them.
They appear to have been knocked up during someones tea break. Not a great way 
to advertise LC’s abilities.

Douglas,

you can use

select after line x of fld y 

for this. 
For example to place the cursor after line 3 of fld "text" you would write

select after line 3 of fld "text"

move cursor to the end of a line in a field

[Douglas A. Ruisaard via use-livecode]

I need to position the cursor at the end of the contents of a single line
field.  This can be "manually" done by pressing the "END" key while the
cursor is in that field.  I want to do that positioning programmatically...
but ...

I've searched all of the "...KeyDown" message options (e.g. commandKeyDown,
controlKeyDown, optionKeyDown) and the other "key" message options (e.g.
functionKey) and cannot find one which will tell me what the "END" key is...
a Windows resource tells me it is "35" 

"rawKeyDown" tells me the raw key is 65367 ... but how do I "send" a rawkey
value to the active field?  Or, ideally, can someone tell me how to
"emulate" the "END" key and position the cursor at the end of the contents
of a single line field?

Likely simple but I just can't work it out.  Thanks in advance!

Of course this is technically feasible, but is it an acceptable solution ?
