Re: Find Replace in Script Editor with cr

[Sean Cole (Pi) via use-livecode]

Bob, Regex only appears to operate on the read of the text, so
;
in the *find* field will locate all of the places a semicolon is found, but
putting
/n
into the *replace* field will not replace the ; with a cr

Brian, The project is huge and I don't yet have the time to invest in
porting it all to github just yet. As it is I have created my own simple
regex text operator that I copy/paste the script into.

https://www.dropbox.com/s/glq6pco70d3zgt3/Screenshot%202021-04-06%20at%2006.21.22.png?dl=0

Richard, I've tried in the Find, Find and replace of the script editor and
the Find/Replace from the main menu. I can't seem to place a carriage
return (or line feed or whatever) into the replacement field. This is what
I am trying to achieve. Replace ";" with "cr" in myScript. I can do it in
code, but not from the find/replace windows. :(

Re: Find Replace in Script Editor with cr

[Richard Gaskin via use-livecode]

The Find feature in the Script Editor is limited to the script being viewed.

For larger-scope searches type Cmd-F in any other window.

Re: Find Replace in Script Editor with cr

[Brian Milby via use-livecode]

If using Atom would be helpful for your task, then ScriptTracker could 
facilitate that:

https://github.com/bwmilby/scriptTracker

It exports all of the scripts of a stack to files and can watch that directory 
for changes and automatically import the changes back into the stack.  (I would 
be curious at the performance on a project that large.)

Another option would be to use the code from button 1003 as inspiration to 
write a script that would make your change in all scripts in a stack (thinking 
of the logic that I used to get to every script of a stack without going into 
shared objects more than once).

I know you didn’t want to deal with doing it in code, but just wanted to offer 
a possibility.

Thanks,
Brian

Re: Find Replace in Script Editor with cr

[Sean Cole (Pi) via use-livecode]

No. I mean using the find/replace tool panel of the script editor to insert
line feed characters to create a new line.

For instance, suppose I have multiple commands on one line separated by ;
and I want to search for semicolon and replace with semicolon followed by
return character to drop the remaining script onto a new line. That kind of
thing. It’s just easier than taking the whole script and pasting into
another text editor to do the same operation. With 17,000 scripts to go
through, it’s a bit tedious doing it by copy paste fix copy paste all the
time.

Do you mean something like “replace “then put” with “then /“ & return & “put” 
in yourScript?

Re: Polygons

[Richmond Mathewson via use-livecode]

The problem is that the borders of a polygon are integral parts of that
polygon and not somehow detachable; even if their width is set to 0 they
are still there. Were it possible to set the widths of sides individually
things would be quite different, but to achieve this one would probably
have to assemble some of composite object (c.f. dataGrids).

Re: Polygons

[Terence Heaford via use-livecode]

I also have concluded this.

If you miss out lines the opaque setting is irrelevant, it functions as being 
false.

Is this a bug?

My work around is two polygons one underneath (filled) and the other on top 
(with lines)

You could just draw lines between the points that need them, using a polygon as 
a line. I have tried this and it does not impact performance.

Thanks for all your help
