Hi all I'm playing an .mp3 file in iOS and saving the elapsed playing time (in milliseconds as reported by the native player) into an sqlite database as it plays. That's working fine.

Weird data grid behaviour
Weirdness going on here with LC commercial 6.5.2 and all versions up to 6.6.2: 1) I drag a new data grid onto a stack 2) in the object inspector I make the datagrid a form datagrid (not strictly relevant as the problem happens with table datagrids too) 3) in the datagrid templates substack I see two cards, id 1002 and id 1005. I've never seen that before! 4) on card id 1002 I have ONLY the _DataGridTemplateInstructions_ group 5) on card id 1005 I have the expected row template group and it's contents 6) when I click the Row Template... button in the datagrid's inspector I see what looks like card id 1005 (I can see the row template)...but the title bar of that window says card id 1002. 7) any changes I make to the row template on that card are NOT shown in the datagrid itself. 8) if I try to associate the row template on card id 1005 with the datagrid (e.g. set the dgProps["row template"] of group "Datagrid 1" to the long id of group id 1006 of card id 1005 stack "Data Grid Templates 1402184271384") I get no errors in the msg box but nothing changes.

When I want to check for the current status I call this: on internetCheck switch case internetAvailable is empty answer "There doesn't appear to be an internet connection. Please try again later." exit to top break case "reachable" is among the items of internetAvailable and "is cell" is not among the items of internetAvailable exit internetCheck -- there's an active wifi connection break case internetAvailable contains "is cell" answer "There's no wifi available.

Re: iOS Provisioning Profiles - Dev vs. Production
Dan Is this the first release of the app? I had a situation where updates to an existing version were fine but new installs hung for users. Turned out that I'd introduced a bug that only affected users who didn't already have one of the files I copy from the binary to the device when the app is first launched. It must have passed Apple's testing because they tested it on the same device or simulator they'd used for the previous version.

Deleting rows in dat grid forms
Hi all I have a delete button in the row template group of a data grid form. When the user touches there delete button I do this: deleteRecord the dgIndex of me ...and I handle that command in the card script with: on deleteRecord whichRow dispatch "deleteline" to group "datagrid" with whichRow end deleteRecord That deletes the specified row, but something isn't working right. For example, if the delete button in row 4 is touched, the fourth row in the data grid is deleted which moves the 5th row into the 4th row position. But I then touch the delete button in the (new) 4th row, the dgIndex passed to my delete script isn't 4...it's 5. Why is that, and how do I fix it? In the past when I've done a row delete in a data grid form I've simply deleted the record in my database, rebuilt the data grid array and re-populated the data grid. So how do I do a row delete without having to do that?

I have a Kickstarter reward that entitles me to one free mergExt iOS external.
As I'm a mergExt subscriber I don't really need it so if you want it email me
direct at gerry [dot] orkin {at} gmail (dot) com with "mergExt" in the subject
line - I'll accept requests for 24 hours (given the many time zones we are all
in) then randomly select one lucky winner :)
If you post a request for it on this list I'll happily ignore you :)

Re: iPhoneControls group close
Vaughn Tom beat me to it re the rect you are using and the delete control stuff. However I think Tom is wrong about his second delete example since you haven't given the browser control a name when you create it.

Re: Prepare image usage
> So i can use: get URL tFile and then save to a folder inside the ipad app.
Yep. I'd probably .zip a folder with the initial thumbnails that gets
downloaded and expanded the first time your app runs. Expand them into a
thumbnails folder that you create inside the Documents folder on the device. A
few people have worked out how to do the download and unzipping already e.g.
see http://ftp.runrev.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=14106&p=69291.
Once you have them on the device it's a simple matter to just assign them as
image files to the images in your scroller.
For subsequent downloads of new thumbnails just repeat the process, adding the
new images to the same folder. You can track the .zip archives already
downloaded in a preferences file on the device that you compare to a similar
file on the server (there are other ways of doing that too).
Make sense?
Cheers

Re: Prepare image usage
I might have missed something but why not download the images the first time the app ever loads (and store them locally)? As I understand it you'll need to do that for all the images only the first time it loads, and then from time to time just download updates? Once downloaded you could cache them ready for quick display. g On 05/08/2013, at 4:29 PM, Jim sims wrote: > My strategy of setting the filename of images to empty allows me to scroll > and resetting the filenames works but i want to speed this up so it > displays quicker. ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
Re: Prepare image usage
Whoops. Sorry. Yes, you have the right idea. That should work. I believe you can also set the size of the image cache using imageCacheLimit - that will maximise the chance that your images won't be flushed from the cache. I have no idea if the image cache persists across app restarts but based on my experience with other kinds of data it should.

Re: Does Apple accepts App with LC field instead of native iOS fields?
I have an app in the store that uses LiveCode fields. Native fields are useful where the user has to enter or edit text. I'm not sure why you would not want to use them if your app requires that sort of interaction. Gerry On Sat, Jun 22, 2013 at 11:51 AM, kee nethery wrote: > They are not purists.

Re: Move a native iOS field?
If I understand your problem correctly, try setting the rects of the native controls (including the multiline one) instead of hiding and showing them. That way it will appear that they have all moved up the screen so the multiline one shows above the keyboard.

Re: iOS - no sound through speakers
Nope, checked all those settings, still not playing. Other apps play through
both headphones and the speakers so I know it's not hardware.

In his mind all he could think about was the fast cars, private jets and luxury hotel rooms that he was sure were in his future. The drummer played like a demon.

Re: Trapping for Hide Keyboard on iOS?
John Yes, use a native input control (see page 70 of the 6.0 iOS release notes). When the user taps in the control the keyboard shows (or you can have it show when the control is initially created or made visible). You can specify that your keyboard has a "Done" key - hitting that will hide the keyboard and you can also trap for that (using inputReturnKey) and do whatever you need to with the contents of the control. This creates a control (this is for a control that is used in a search feature): local searchInputID on showSearch if "searchinput" is not in iphoneControls() then iphoneControlCreate "input","searchinput" put the result into searchInputID iphoneControlSet searchInputID, "rect", the rect of btn "shadowfield" iphoneControlSet searchInputID, "textcolor", "gray" iphoneControlSet searchInputID, "autofit", "true" iphoneControlSet searchInputID, "autoclear", "true" iphoneControlSet searchInputID, "clearButtonMode", "always" iphoneControlSet searchInputID, "borderstyle", "rounded" iphoneControlSet searchInputID, "autoCorrectionType", "yes" iphoneControlSet searchInputID, "enabled", "true" iphoneControlSet searchInputID, "returnKeyType", "search" iphoneControlSet searchInputID, "keyboardType", "search" iphoneControlSet searchInputID, "visible", "true" iphoneControlSet searchInputID, "text", "Search" end if end showsearch Here's how you trap for the return (or "done" key): on inputReturnKey if iphonecontroltarget() = "searchinput" then put iphoneControlGet (searchInputID, "text") into seachString -- or put it into a field in your case searchFor seachString -- or just store the text in a field end if end inputReturnKey You can even do stuff when the use first focuses on the control: on inputBeginEditing if iphonecontroltarget() = "searchinput" then iphoneControlSet searchInputID, "textcolor", "black" end if end inputBeginEditing Hope that helps.
