iOS: Scrolling a native scroller via script problem
I have a data grid that I'm scrolling in iOS using a native scroller. I use this card script to scroll the data grid: on scrollerDidScroll OffsetX, OffsetY if iphoneControlTarget() = "listScroller" then set the vScroll of group "scroller" to OffsetY end if end scrollerDidScroll However, on opencard I manually scroll the scroller via script e.g.: set the vScroll of group "scroller" to 2770 The problem is if the user then touches the scroller, the data grid jumps to a vScroll of 0. Anyone have an idea why?

In my case it's already visible (and it's not really being used as a pick list in the traditional sense) - it's a scrolling list of items on the left side of the iPad screen that the user can search and select (see https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/67170/dynamicList.jpg). The user enters search terms into the native text control above the data grid and it does a dynamic live search for records that match the entered text. If I needed to hide and show it and to disable all the other controls I might group all the elements with a full screen rectangle graphic at the back of the group and make the rectangle opaque but set it's blend to 100 - that way touches anywhere behind the group wouldn't get through.

Randy's code gives me a screen rect of 0,0,375,667 on an iOS 8 iPhone 6 simulator. Those are the correct values (remember for the iPhone 6 and 6+ you need to multiply by 2x and 3x respectively).

Re: reopen app from background iOS 7 and 8 / multitask

Andre Garcia's FacebookLib
Hi all Is anyone successfully using Andre Garzia's FacebookLib library on mobile? I'm getting the following error when trying to log into Facebook from the demo mobile app, but using my app's key - previously this was all working: "Given URL is not allowed by the Application configuration.: One or more of the given URLs is not allowed by the App's settings. It must match the Website URL or Canvas URL, or the domain must be a subdomain of one of the App's domains." I've tried to work out what the problem is - that error message is mentioned on Stackoverload and elsewhere but only in the context of web apps, not mobile. I emailed Andre 3 or 4 weeks ago and he said FB had changed something and he'd get back to me. He hasn't replied to more recent follow up emails.

Re: [ANN] Free: Google-style typing filter for LiveCode
Video of my project (turn the sound off unless you like dogs barking): http://quick.as/erqospn9 I just do: "SELECT * FROM companytable where company_name like " && "'%"&searchText&"%' order by company_name" ...then get the result in an array and pop it into the datagrid, updating as the user types.

Re: Counting the number of checkboxes...
Late to this party but I would have thought that the simplest solution was to have a field on one of the cards that has 0 in it at the start. Then in each check box button have a script that simply adds 1 to the value in that field when the check box is clicked on, and subtracts 1 from the field when the check box is clicked off. Whenever you need to know how many of the check boxes are on just get the number from that field.

libUrlDownloadToFile & urlProgress
I'm using libUrlDownloadToFile to download some mp3s. As you might know libUrlDownloadToFile periodically sends the message "urlProgress" to the originating object so you can monitor the progress of downloads. It's working well, but I'm confused about when libUrlDownloadToFile stops sending the urlProgress message. Does it stop once the download is complete? Or do I have to explicitly kill it? I ask because I'm getting some weird behaviour that is very hard to explain...but knowing how and when the urlProgress message stops being sent will assist me in troubleshooting :) Oh, and I'm working off page 14 of the iOS release notes. The user guide entries for libUrlDownloadToFile just confuse me, as it appears to be documentation for a slightly different version of the libUrlDownloadToFile command.

Weird script behaviour (was libUrlDownloadToFile & urlProgress)
So more messing about reveals that my problem wasn't with libUrlDownloadToFile at all - but it's still weird. I have a button that calls a command - upDateSongs - from its script. If upDateSongs is in the stack script everything works fine. However if it's in the card script the app goes mad - it starts processing the card script from the top, running any code it encounters (my urlProgress code was at the top of the card script, so it was triggered by the sending of upDateSongs from the button - hence my suspicions about libUrlDownloadToFile and urlProgress). Crazy. And it makes me wonder if my stack is somehow corrupt. Anyone seen that before?

This is the handler that it calls (I've 'd out some domain details):
on updateSongsList

hide button "stopButton"
put "Checking for updates..." into field "messages"
put url "https://.com/hrabisms/songsupdate.txt"; into
songListOnServer
put the dgText of group "Songs" into songsOnDevice
if the number of lines in songListOnServer > the number of lines in
songsOnDevice then
put "Update received!" into field "messages"
wait 120
set the dgText of group "Songs" to songListOnServer
set the defaultFolder to specialFolderPath("Documents")
put songsOnServer into URL ("file:songs.txt")
else
put "No update received. Rats." into field "messages"
wait 120
end if
put "" into field "messages"
end updateSongsList
As I said previously, this script is not executed if it's in the card
script, but does when it's in the stack script. That's weird enough,
but if I place it in the card script and I use "Send updateSongsList
to this card" in the button script it starts executing the card script
from the top, and I can track that by setting a breakpoint against the
send command - it jumps from the button script into the card script,
and I can step through all the lines in that card script, executing
them as I go.
Like I said, totally crazy!

Building for the iPhone 3G
I'm using the wonderful service at testflightapp.com to distribute iOS builds to a few testers. One has an iPhone 3g, and when trying to register his device he gets the message "Give your developers some time to create a build for this iPhone 3g. Testflight will e-mail you when they have." Can we not build for the 3g? Or is there a setting I'm missing?

Re: Weird script behaviour (was libUrlDownloadToFile & urlProgress)
Jacq Figured it out. Later in the card script I set up a scroll control, and include this line in that setup script: iphoneControlSet sScrollerId, "declerationRate", fast The compiler doesn't like that line. If I comment it out or put "fast" in quotes, everything works fine. My scroll control setup is taken from a demo stack I found on the runrev forums, and it works in that demo stack, and in mine. In my naivety and cluelessness (hell, I've been at this for 2-3 weeks in total, after many many years away from any form of programming or scripting) I assumed that the compile error I was getting against that line had something to do with the fact that I was running on a Mac - after all, on the iPhone the scroll control works fine with it included and I've seen other examples of scroll control scripts that include that line, apparently without problems. So, sorry for bothering the list with my human error :) And thanks again for your interest. Gerry -- photo site: http://gerryorkin.com On Thursday, 24 March 2011 at 10:13 AM, J.

Re: Weird script behaviour (was libUrlDownloadToFile & urlProgress)
Thanks Jacq :) Back to libUrlDownloadToFile & urlProgress, I'm still interested to know how we stop the urlProgress being sent after we finish a download, as I think I'm still seeing something weird in relation to that. urlProgress returns "downloaded" when the download is done, but seems to continue processing.

Has anyone got the new network reachability function to work in iOS? Contrary to page 34 of the new iOS release notes that come with LiveCode 4.6, I'm finding that the reachabilityInfo param of the reachabilityChanged command is empty when a network connection is present; the documentation claims that it should be empty when no connection is available.

Arghhh. Is this stack corrupt?
I'm wanting to save the current card name out to a text file when my iOS app
quits, so I can return there when the app re-opens.
I use:
on shutdown
set the defaultFolder to specialFolderPath("Documents")
put the short name of this card into URL ("file:shutdown.txt")
end shutdown
That writes out e.g. "Songs" to the shutdown.txt file ("Songs" is one of the
card names).
On openstack, I want to go to the card whose name is in that file. So I do:
on openstack
set the defaultFolder to specialFolderPath("Documents")
go card URL ("file:shutdown.txt")
end openstack
All works fine on my Mac, and on that platform I can see the correct value is
being written out to the file, and being read in from the file on openstack.
Until this afternoon, it was working in iOS - now it's stopped. No matter what
is being written out on shutdown in iOS, if I check the text read from the file
on openstack (using answer URL ("file:shutdown.txt")) I always get the value
"card id 1002".
I have no card id 1002 in my stack!
What is going on?
Cheers
Gerry

Re: Check for first run
Check for a local file - if it isn't there you can be sure that it is the first
time the app has been launched. After you ask your user your questions, write
the file. On subsequent launches when you check for the file...it's there, so
skip the questions.
So on openstack do:
put specialfolderpath ("documents") & "/" &"firstlaunch.txt" into
pathToLaunchFile
if there is not a file pathToLaunchFile then
askYouQuestions
set the defaultFolder to specialFolderPath("Documents")
put "1" into URL (("file:firstlaunch.txt"))
else
doSomethingElse
end if

To paraphrase David Sedaris: I think of being on an airplane.

iOS app rejection issue
Hi all
I’ve just submitted an app to Apple using LC 6.7.2 (rc 2) and the latest
version of xCode (6.1.1). That xCode version is the only one set in the mobile
prefs for LiveCode. The app build requirement is set to iOS 8 or later.
I’m getting the following error messages back from Apple with the requirement
that I fix the problem before submitting again. I have no idea what the problem
is - can anyone help?:
Minimum OS Version Mismatch - The minimum OS version (LC_VERSION_MIN_IPHONEOS)
in the binary ('4.3') for architecture ('armv7') differs from the
MinimumOSVersion ('8.0') in the Info.plist.
Minimum OS Version Mismatch - The minimum OS version (LC_VERSION_MIN_IPHONEOS)
in the binary ('7.0') for architecture ('arm64') differs from the
MinimumOSVersion ('8.0') in the Info.plist.
Cheers

Re: iOS voice-to-text
Alain Put Richard's code into an open card handler to make the native field appear when you first open the card. The rect of the field in his code is set to match the rect of a field named "note" - I do the same kind of thing because it lets you easily change the size and position of the native field just by changing the size and position of that field - and of course you need to set the visible of the field "note" to false. To delete the native field you would do: mobileControlDelete "displayInput" (using his example). You can also hide the native field with: mobileControlSet "displayInput", "visible", "false".

Re: RELEASE 6.7.3 / 7.0.3
Monte and RunRev have been working on this. He has to re-build his externals before this'll work. I've been waiting 4 weeks for RunRev to fix this and now, through no fault of his, I have to wait until Monte gets his wonderful externals updated.
