Re: Sorting by item ... of each and item ... of each

[panagiotis m via use-livecode]

Hello Matthias,

I do not think that the syntax "sort  by sortKey1 and sortKey2"
is supported

If you have multiple sortKeys, you have to do multiple sorts, for example,
in your use case, this should work:

set the itemdel to ";"
sort lines of tList numeric by item 3 of each
sort lines of tList numeric by item 2 of each

Kind regards,
Panos

Re: [[ ANN ]] Release 9.6.10

[panagiotis m via use-livecode]

Hello Mike,

I guess we will update the supported xcode version once macOS Sonoma and/or
Xcode 15 - iOS 17 SDK are publicly available, so probably in LC 9.6.11 rc-1

I think you can update your CLT to 14.3, but make sure you still keep the
current supported xcode version

Kind regards,
Panos

Hello Matthias,

I am afraid I cannot give an ETA on this. All I know is it was not planned
for 9.6.10 (neither for 10 DP-6).

Hello all,

@matthias
I am sorry for the frustration - I know you are very eager to get this
fixed. But this was not planned for LC 9.6.10 anyway.

@Dan
The release of LC 10 DP-6 is in the final stages of testing and it is
expected to appear this week.

Kind regards,

Re: Merging PDF pages

[panagiotis m via use-livecode]

Hello all,

There is a built-in utility on MacOS for merging PDFs. You can call it from
"shell", as Paul suggested.

This seems to work - tested on MacOS Mojave. It merges "test1.pdf" and
"test2.pdf" into "merged.pdf" on Desktop.
Just check that the path of tApp actually exists in modern MacOS as well.

on mouseUp pButtonNumber
   local tShell, tApp
   put quote & "/System/Library/Automator/Combine PDF
Pages.action/Contents/Resources/join.py" & quote \
 into tApp
   put tApp && "-o ~/Desktop/merged.pdf ~/Desktop/test1.pdf
~/Desktop/test2.pdf" \
 into tShell
   get shell(tShell)
end mouseUp

Cheers,
Panos

Re: Polygrid sorting

[panagiotis m via use-livecode]

Hello Paul,

See the example in the dictionary for the "headerClick" message:

local sDirection

on headerClick pColumnNumber
local tText

put the text of me into tText
put not sDirection[pColumnNumber] into sDirection[pColumnNumber]

set the itemDel to tab

# Sort data by this column.
if sDirection[pColumnNumber] then
sort lines of tText ascending by item pColumnNumber of each
else
sort lines of tText descending by item pColumnNumber of each
end if

set the text of me to tText
end headerClick

Kind regards,
Panos

Re: [[ ANN ]] Release 9.6.10 RC-1

[panagiotis m via use-livecode]

Hello all,

Oh I see what you mean!

If you go to the "Downloads" section **in your account** - not the public
downloads page -  I confirm it only shows the release notes for LC 9.6.10
RC1

But you can still get LC 9.6.10 RC-1 if you go to Products -> LiveCode
dropdown

We will fix the issue asap.

Thanks for spotting it!

Re: [[ ANN ]] Release 9.6.10 RC-1

[panagiotis m via use-livecode]

Hello Mark,

As Matthias noted, you can find this release in your account area. You have
to scroll down a bit because the stable releases are listed at the top.

In the downloads page you can only find the last stable release - currently
9.6.9.

Kind regards,
Panos

Re: Oddities with iOS IAP

[panagiotis m via use-livecode]

Hello Dan,

Just a rough guess, in the purchaseStateUpdate msg, you have:

 mobileStoreConfirmPurchase pProductID //Inform the store that the purchase
identifier productID was successfully delivered
 mobileStoreDisablePurchaseUpdates

in both cases for paymentReceived and restored.

Could you try commenting out the mobileStoreDisablePurchaseUpdates in these
2 cases? Once you call mobileStoreConfirmPurchase, it informs the store
that the purchase was successful, and then the store sends another
"purchaseStateUpdate" with state=complete.

But if you call mobileStoreDisablePurchaseUpdates just after
mobileStoreConfirmPurchase then this stops the communication with the
store. I suggest having mobileStoreDisablePurchaseUpdates just in the
"complete" case and remove it from "paymentReceived" and "restored".

Note that on Android (if I remember correctly)
mobileStoreEnablePurchaseUpdates/mobileStoreDisablePurchaseUpdates do not
actually do something - but they are added for consistency.

If you do this change, and still see the delay, then it is likely a
TestFlight/Sandbox issue. Note that Apple's sandbox servers are slower than
the actual ones used by StoreKit.
(e.g.
https://community.revenuecat.com/sdks-51/testflight-clicking-subscriptions-or-iaps-has-long-delay-2687
)

kind regards,
Panos

Re: Oddities with iOS IAP

[panagiotis m via use-livecode]

Hello Dan,

Could you share the code that makes the purchase, as well as the
purchaseStateUpdate message?

Although, my guess is that this is rather a TestFlight issue, since if it
was an issue in LC's API for in-app purchase on iOS, it would have been
reported
ready.

Kind regards,
Panos

Re: Consumable In App Purchases on Android

[panagiotis m via use-livecode]

Hello Dan,

Thanks for the update.

RE 1, I *think* yes, but I would suggest you double check this anyway.

RE 2, I would suggest not using mobilePurchaseGet(). This function is from
the older API for in-app purchases, and we have kept it for backwards
compatibility. I suggest using mobileStoreProductProperty (productID,
propertyName) instead. In fact, using mobileStoreProductProperty
(productID, "purchaseToken") is what you need in this use-case.

RE the lessons, yes, they could have been better. I'll add this to my
(long!) todo list :)

Kind regards,
Panos

Re: Consumable In App Purchases on Android

[panagiotis m via use-livecode]

Hello all,

Also, it might be worth trying this as well - add a new button with this
code:

on mouseUp
   mobileStoreEnablePurchaseUpdates
   mobileStoreRestorePurchases
end mouseUp

Then press the button, and *then* call mobileStoreConsumePurchase pProductID .
Hopefully now it should be properly consumed, and you should be able to buy
it (and consume it) again.

Cheers,
Panos

Re: Consumable In App Purchases on Android

[panagiotis m via use-livecode]

Hello Dan,

The call to mobileStoreConfirmPurchase pProductID  causes the
purchaseStateUpdate message to be sent again with status=complete.

So I would not suggest putting the call to mobileStoreConsumePurchase
pProductID just after mobileStoreConfirmPurchase.

You could either put it in a separate button and see if it works, otherwise
add a [case "complete"] in the purchaseStateUpdate msg and there consume
the product and disable purchase updates, i.e.:

on purchaseStateUpdate pPurchaseID, pProductID, pState
   switch pState
  case "paymentReceived"
 answer "Payment received!"
 offerPurchasedProduct pProductID
 mobileStoreConfirmPurchase pProductID
 break
  case "error"
 answer "Error occured during purchase handling:" & return & return
& mobileStorePurchaseError(pPurchaseID)
 mobileStoreDisablePurchaseUpdates
 break
  case "invalidSKU"
 answer "Invalid SKU."
 mobileStoreDisablePurchaseUpdates
 break
  case "alreadyEntitled"
 answer "Already Owned."
 mobileStoreDisablePurchaseUpdates
 break
  case "restored"
 put "Restored: " & pProductID & cr after field "restored"
 offerPurchasedProduct pProductID
 mobileStoreConfirmPurchase pProductID
 break
  case "cancelled"
 answer "Purchase Cancelled:" && pProductID
 mobileStoreDisablePurchaseUpdates
 break
  case "complete"
 answer "Purchase Complete:" && pProductID
 mobileStoreConsumePurchase pProductID  // <-- ADD THIS HERE
 mobileStoreDisablePurchaseUpdates
 break
   end switch
end purchaseStateUpdate

Hope this helps.

Kind regards,
Panos

Re: Unable to build for Mac: adding ad-hoc signature failed

[panagiotis m via use-livecode]

Hello Dar,

I can successfully build a Mac standalone in a network drive.

The error you are getting indicates that the app the standalone builder
tries to codesign, has some extended attributes. This is strange, because
the standalone builder does this very thing (i.e. it clears the extended
attributes) just before the codesign command.

I am wondering - do you get the same error when trying to build a
standalone from a new simple stack? Or does that happen only with a
specific stack? If the latter, does this stack contain anything in the Copy
Files?

Kind regards,
Panos

Re: Consumable In App Purchases on Android

[panagiotis m via use-livecode]

Hello Dan,

I think Google no longer differentiates between consumables and
non-consumables when setting up the in-app product - they are both marked
as "In-App Products”. However, in LiveCode, you have to call
mobileStoreConsumePurchase pProductID to be able to buy the product again -
otherwise you get a "alreadyEntitled" status.

If you do this, and still get "alreadyEntitled", then you have to ensure
that the pProductID param passed to mobileStoreConsumePurchase indeed
matches exactly the product id of the product you set up in the google dev
console.

Hope this helps.

Kind regards,
Panos

Re: Unable to build for Mac: adding ad-hoc signature failed

[panagiotis m via use-livecode]

Hello all,

The standalone builder does add a signature when building the mac
standalone - but an ad hoc one (i.e. it does not use an actual
certificate). The error Dar gets happens during the standalone building
process.

@Dar
Could you attach the exact error? Just upload the screenshot somewhere and
post the link. It might help us isolate the problem, although I suspect it
is related to the command line tools version you have installed.

Could you try this in the terminal and post the output?

xcode-select -p

Cheers,
Panos

Re: Light Windows programs takes 40 s to load

[panagiotis m via use-livecode]

Hello all,

We recently fixed a bug (affecting mainly Windows 11) where the LC
installer, the LC IDE and Windows standalones were crashing on startup. It
turned out this was caused if some generic printer drivers were installed
in the device, and installing the official printer drivers from the
vendor's website prevented the crash. We had reports for Brother printers,
Epson and HP if I remember correctly.

The fix we added did fix the crash, but in some cases caused a delay on
startup, if the device still had the "generic" printer driver installed.

That's why I asked to quit the printer spooler and try again - if it works
with the printer spooler not running, it means that this device has a
"generic" printer driver installed, so Dar could just install the official
driver from the vendor's website and have the issue fixed.

Kind regards,
Panos

Re: Light Windows programs takes 40 s to load

[panagiotis m via use-livecode]

Hello Dar,

So, try this:

1. Open Windows Task Manager
2. Search for a process named "Spooler Subsystem app" or just "Print
Spooler"
3. Force quit this process

Now open your standalone and see if it starts immediately.

Cheers,
Panos

Re: [[ ANN ]] New Enhancements Bundle v1.0.32 available

Hello Derek,

Indeed, those 2 widgets are probably the ones I mostly use in my projects
as well!


*How can I be sure the proper version is being loaded? Should I be
clearing out the old versions, or does your installer handle that?*
The installer does handle that - it removes existing versions and installs
the newest ones.

Hello all,

@Mark
There is a file "changelog.txt" in the bundle that describes all the
bugfixes and new features that are added per widget.

@Klaus
Heh, I think the .zip file has this version (1_0_0) because it allows us to
update it more easily. If you unzip it, it should show the actual version:
"livecode_enhancements-1_0_32".

Hello Mark,

I had seen this issue on Android, not on iOS. And the workaround was to use
a "send in time" command to set the acceleratedRendering to true, for
example:

on preOpenStack
   send initAE to me in 300 millisec
end preOpenStack

command initAE
   set the acceleratedRendering of this stack to true
end initAE

Hello Klaus,

Nope, I just asked because I had seen some similar issues when setting this
property on preopenstack.

Well, if the same app worked as expected before, then it may be just a
random glitch, which would have been fixed with a restart of the device
(i.e no need to delete and reinstall the app).

Hello Klaus,

Are you setting the acceleratedRendering to true on startup?

Kind regards,

Re: Remote debugger error message

[panagiotis m via use-livecode]

Hello all,

@mike
The revdebuggerlibrary.livecodescript is not the remote debugger - it is
the IDE debugger for the script editor. The remote debugger is a protected
stack and it is not present in the repo.

@david
How do you trigger this error? Could you provide a recipe?

Kind regards,
Panos

Re: Answer dialog text missing in standalone 9.6.9

Hello again,

Just tested on Windows and it works fine here as well.

@Camm
Could it be the case you have customised the answer dialog stack?

Yay :)

I think you can enable Developer Mode from the Settings app of your iPhone.
No need to rebuild/reinstall your iOS app.

Re: Code-Signing Frustration

[panagiotis m via use-livecode]

Bill,

I am sorry for the confusion, I meant UDID, not uuid.

In other words, the profile must include the id of the devices in which it
is allowed to install your app. You said this is a new device, so could it
be the case that the UDID that is included in your profile (I see only one
UDID in the profile you posted) is the one of your old device?

Also, just to double check, when do you get the error message? Is it when
building the iOS standalone app, or when trying to install the app in your
connected device (via xcode)?

Kind regards,
Panos

Re: Code-Signing Frustration

[panagiotis m via use-livecode]

Hello Bill,

I would recommend Matthias' excellent lesson and utility stack here:

https://lessons.livecode.com/m/4071/l/1653720-code-signing-and-notarizing-your-lc-standalone-for-distribution-outside-the-mac-appstore-with-xcode-13-and-up

This is not only for signing but also for notarizing the Mac app, but if
you need to sign the app chances are you'll need to notarize it as well :)

Cheers,
Panos

Re: Windows OS and LC969 weirdness

[panagiotis m via use-livecode]

Hello all,

@Matthias
Not sure, it might be the case that someone had investigated this in the
past, but did not get far enough to push a fix. Or it might be the case we
never got the time to look at it properly, since more important updates had
to be addressed first (for example any issues that might break submission
to the app stores, such as new requirements from Apple, Google etc, or
support for new OS versions that are released), so this bug did not
actually make it to the top of our backlog.
I agree this is something we have to fix though, sooner or later.

@Paul
You're welcome

Kind regards,
Panos

Re: Android 13?

Hello all,

LiveCode does support Android 13. The release notes need to be updated.

Dan, if you rebuild the app with lc 9.6.9 I think you should be fine. I am
not sure why an app built with 9.6.2 would throw this error, but it has
been a long time since 9.6.2 anyway.

Re: Android Build Error

[panagiotis m via use-livecode]

Hello Dan,

This is caused because the version of the build-tools you have installed is
 > v32

You have to uninstall this version of the build tools and install a version
among v30 and v31. I suggest v30.0.3, which is extensively tested - as
recommended in the LC lesson about Android Studio.

See this bug: https://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=23570

Re: Problem signing Android app

[panagiotis m via use-livecode]

Hello Klaus,

When you tried to upload a new build using your original keystore, was it
actually the original one? Usually this error (i.e. that you did not use
the correct key for signing) is thrown when a different key is used to sign
an app update compared to the key used to sign the previous build(s) you
have submitted.

Kind regards,
Panos

Re: [[ ANN ]] Release 9.6.9

[panagiotis m via use-livecode]

Hello Mike,

MacOS 13.x was supported in previous LC versions too. If your goal is to
build iOS apps, it is possible even with Xcode 13.2 on MacOS 13.x. Yes,
Xcode 13.2 won't run on MacOS 13.x, but LC just needs Xcode 13.2 to "be
there", since it does not run Xcode directly. it just uses some command
line tools that are bundled within Xcode.

Kind regards,

Re: Android SDK Tools Missing

[panagiotis m via use-livecode]

Hello Dan,

If you uncheck the option "Hide Obsolete Packages" then you will see the
"Android SDK Tools" package. It is now marked a s obsolete, so I am not
entirely sure if it is still necessary.

Kind regards,

Re: Ventura 1.3 - revcopyfile

[panagiotis m via use-livecode]

Hello Jean-Jacques,

This sounds like a permissions issue. Which version of LiveCode are you
using? IIRC, I think we fixed a similar issue in LC 9.6.8 - we added proper
permissions to the LC IDE and standalones to use AppleScript to control
other apps in recent MacOS versions.

If you still see the problem in LC 9.6.8+, I suggest you file a bug report (
https://quality.livecode.com) and include a simple sample stack which we
can use to reproduce the problem.

Kind regards,
Panos

Re: [[ ANN ]] Release 9.6.9 RC-3

Hello Ralph,

The public downloads page only contains the latest stable version - no DPs
or RCs there.

You can access the release notes from the LC 9.6.9 rc3 IDE:

Help -> Release Notes

Also, in your account area, at the left hand side there is a Downloads
page, which does have the release notes.

Kind regards.

Re: diagnosing android crash at launch

[panagiotis m via use-livecode]

hello all,

@Mike Kerner 
Are you setting the acceleratedRendering to true? The "black screen" on
startup reminds me of an older bug that only happened when
acceleratedRendering was set to true. If yes, try setting it to false and
see if you get any further. You might now see the answer dialogs that Ralph
suggested.

Kind regards,

Re: android build "could not encode class bundle"

[panagiotis m via use-livecode]

Hello Mike,

You can use the SDK Manager that is included in Android Studio. See the
section “Installing the required SDK Tools” from this lesson:

https://lessons.livecode.com/m/2571/l/625198-livecode-and-android-studio

To allow older versions to show, check "Show Package Details" at the bottom
right of the SDK Tools tab of the SDK Manager

Note that it is the SDK Build-Tools you need to downgrade. Currently you
probably have v32.x.x - but you need to install v30.0.3

Kind regards,
Panos

Re: On mobile: mergAVRequestMediaAccess "video" and androidRequestPermission "android.permission.CAMERA"

[panagiotis m via use-livecode]

Hello Klaus,

*sorry, I only have a Samsung Android phone.*
*Tested there, but unfortunately that does not work on Android this way.*

On Android, if you go to Settings -> Apps -> Manage Apps  and then choose
your app, you can see which permissions have been requested and which of
them have been accepted / refused. And you can permit/revoke them at any
time.

Hope this helps.

Kind retards,

Re: Transporter Issue

Dan,

Could it be the case the app id of your standalone does not match the one
in iTunes connect? Maybe an uppercase/lowercase mismatch?

Re: [[ ANN ]] New Enhancements Bundle v1.0.29 available

[panagiotis m via use-livecode]

Hello Paul,

I have followed your recipe and still cannot get it to fail - I can
successfully add a new column using the plus button in the Columns tab of
the Property Inspector, even if the PL is totally empty (i.e. no columns
and no data).

I suggest you file a bug report with a short video recipe - maybe I am
following slightly different steps and the devil is in the details :)

Kind regards,

Re: Standalone riddle

[panagiotis m via use-livecode]

Hello all,

*>Can we turn off remote debugger for a test build so we can, how can I

*it, hmm... I got it! Test?*

I think if you choose to "Select Inclusions manually" and you do not
include the Remote Debugger, it is not included in the standalone.

Re: Another LC9.6.9rc2 regression? This time with Datagrids

Nice detective work @Mark Wieder 

Indeed, in LC 9.6.9 rc2 we added support for nested DG behaviors, so this
code was updated.

Hopefully this will be fixed in LC 9.6.9 rc3

Re: Build in Answer Dialog

[panagiotis m via use-livecode]

Hello Klaus,

I think you can, unless the application bundle is read-only. If this is the
case, then you can still make it writable using chmod in the terminal, or
using a text editor (BBEdit, TextWrangler) that will tell you that the file
is read-only and ask you if you want to make it writable, without messing
with the terminal.

That said, the LiveCode app bundle on macOS used to be read-only. But I
think at some point (probaby when we started to notarize it?) this changed
- not sure if this was intentional or not :)

Kind regards,
Panos

Re: Build in Answer Dialog

[panagiotis m via use-livecode]

Hello Paul,

You can tweak this file with a text editor:

/Applications/LiveCode 9.6.9 (rc
2).app/Contents/Tools/Toolset/palettes/answer-dialog/revanswerdialog.livecodescript:

/* Creates the prompt field if there is not one already created */
if the number of fields of me is 0 then
   create field in this card of me
   set sharedText of it to true
   set dontWrap of it to false
   set lockText of it to true
   set opaque of it to false
   set traversalOn of it to false
   set showBorder of it to false
   set vScrollbar of it to true
   set width of it to 293
   set height of it to 342
   set the fixedLineHeight of it to "false"   /// < ADD THIS LINE
end if

Note you have to quit LC first, then make this change, then save it.

Kind regards,
Panos

See:

Re: Can we install "command Line Tools 14.1" on Mac?

[panagiotis m via use-livecode]

Hello all,

Yes, you can install any version of the command line tools you wish, but
for LiveCode you need the version that is included in Xcode 13.2.x.

So to use a different version you can do:

sudo xcode-select -s /path/to/the/new/version/of/command/line/tools

But before using LiveCode, make sure you revert to using version 13.2.x.

You can also choose the version of the command line tools to be used by
launching any version of Xcode and go to Xcode -> Preferences -> Locations
-> Command Line Tools

@Klaus
May I ask why you are interested in the command line tools v14.1? Do you
need them for another app?

Kind regards,
Panos

MacOS Ventura (https://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=24008). I have
not upgraded yet - so I was wondering if anyone has seen this issue on
MacOS Ventura?

Kind regards,
Panos

Re: [ANN] Release 9.6.9 RC-2

[panagiotis m via use-livecode]

Hello Matthias,

This change affects only multi-arch standalones. These standalones (on
macOS, iOS and Android) now will share the unicode related data which is
required for the engine to run among the different architecture binaries.
So such standalones will be smaller than previous versions.

Kind regards,
Panos

Re: Printing Woes

[panagiotis m via use-livecode]

Hello Dan,

Hmm interesting. I am wondering if it is a permissions issue / sandbox
violation. How did you distribute this standalone?
Was it via the AppStore?
I am wondering if you had to sign it with the printing entitlement
(com.apple.security.print)

Also, it might be worth checking the System Settings -> Security and
Privacy -> Privacy and see
if the standalone has requested any special permissions (check probably the
Full DIsk Access and the Automation sections).

Kind regards,
Panos

Re: Printing Woes

[panagiotis m via use-livecode]

Hello Dan,

Thanks. You can open the Console app (/Applications/Utilities/Console),
choose the current Mac in the Devices section (at the left) and filter the
logs based on the standalone app id. The logs are showing in real time, so
in your standalone app trigger a "answer page setup" command and check at
this point if anything "suspicious" appears at the logs, such as an
exception, an error or such.

Hope this helps

Kind regards,
Panos

Re: Adaptive Icon for Android

[panagiotis m via use-livecode]

Hello Klaus,

What have you chosen as a Foreground layer (image, clip art or text) and
what as a Background layer (color or image)?

In fact, I suggest you file a report in quality.livecode.com and attach the
sample stack and the icons so that we can investigate further.
If the stack/icons are confidential feel free to email them to me directly

Kind regards,
Panos

Re: "normal" Android app icon looks strange in LC 9.6.9 rc1

[panagiotis m via use-livecode]

Hello Klaus,

Nothing should have changed between 9.6.8 and 9.6.9 rc1 RE legacy/adaptive
icons.

I guess you see this difference because either of these has changed:

- the android device
- the android version on the same device
- the default launcher app
- something else :)

I believe that if you rebuild the same app with 9.6.8 you'll see the same
results as with 9.6.9 rc1 if you deploy to the same android device.

Kind regards,
Panos

Re: "normal" Android app icon looks strange in LC 9.6.9 rc1

[panagiotis m via use-livecode]

Hello Klaus,

What you see is the expected result. In fact, this is the reason one has to
use adaptive icons. You can use adaptive icons for non Google Play Store
apps as well.

So, when you use a legacy icon, which is a square png, this does not
guarantee that the app icon in the Home screen will appear as a square
icon. If the app launcher shows all icons as e.g. circle icons, or as round
rectangles, then there are two possible outcomes when you provide a legacy
icon:

- either your app will stand out from the others (in a negative sense)
because it will appear as the square icon among circle icons
- or your app icon will appear as a circle that has the original square
icon in it.

I hope this makes sense :)

Kind regards,
Panos

Ah I see. Hmm. Nope, we do not use "NotificationCompat".

How are you sending the notifications? Are you using the Firebase Console?
if yes, I am wondering if you could just provide an image in the
"Notification Image (optional)" field here:

Re: Images in Push Messages

[panagiotis m via use-livecode]

Hello Dan,

Have you provided a "Status Bar Icon" in the Android standalone settings?
If yes, what icons have you tried? I think colored icons are no longer
allowed, in recent Android versions.

The icons have to be png images, and they need to be white on black or
transparent only, otherwise they display as a gray square area.

You can check some samples on the web, e.g. here:

https://romannurik.github.io/AndroidAssetStudio/icons-notification.html#source.type=clipart&source.clipart=place&source.space.trim=1&source.space.pad=0&name=ic_stat_place

Hope this helps.

Please let us know if this works for you.

Kind regards,
Panos

Re: LC converts phone number to scientific notation

[panagiotis m via use-livecode]

Hello Klaus,

I guess what happens here is that if you fetch item X of line Y and use it
directly, LC treats it as a number and displays it in scientific notation.

On the contrary, if you first put item X of line Y into a variable, then
the variable is treated as text, so it is not converted.

Kind regards,
Panos

Hello Andreas,

To use Kangaroo's sample stack as is (
https://forums.livecode.com/viewtopic.php?f=120&t=36957) you have to tweak
the custom standalone.html that is included in the Copy Files section and
replace "" at line 213
with the correct version of LC 10 you're using, I guess in this case
""

Re: polylist toys

[panagiotis m via use-livecode]

Hello,

Thank you all for the useful comments.

I *think* the LCB feature in LC 10 Steven mentioned is the "is
valid" operator, that returns a boolean value indicating whether or not the
image data is valid.
Also, note that in the upcoming releases of LC 10 we will add syntax for
checking if a file/directory exists, so we could check not only image
validity but also image existence in the first place.

BTW, we have found a workaround for allowing this stack (lazy image
example) to work in LC 9 as well. The updated bundle will probably appear
in your account area in the next couple of days.

Kind regards,
Panos

Re: iPhone simulators

[panagiotis m via use-livecode]

Hello Klaus,

The suggested approach is to make sure the desired simulator device is
already up and running. And then, in the Test Target menu, choose "iPhone
Simulator 15.2" or ""iPad Simulator 15.2", and click Test.

PS: To change a device, click on the Simulator app menu Hardware -> Device
-> iPhone X.Y etc

Note this might be slightly different depending on the version of your
Simulator app, which depends on the Xcode version, which depends on your
MacOS version :)

Cheers,

Re: Audio in Background

[panagiotis m via use-livecode]

Hello Dan

In fact this feature might be supported already.

If you have a look at the dictionary, there is the
"iphoneEnableRemoteControl" command.

This is to enable remote control. Then, you can use
"setRemoteControlDisplay" to update the metadata and such.

Then, you get "remoteControlReceived" events when the buttons in the remote
control are pressed.

(remote control is the thingy in the Control Center)

Note that this code has not been tested recently. I'll have a play tomorrow
and see if it still works.

Kind regards,
Panos

Re: {OT} Are there any ffmpeg "experts" on this list?

[panagiotis m via use-livecode]

Hello Paul

Not a ffmpeg expert, but have you seen the mediaFoundation library? See the
dictionary entry for "mediaFoundationTranscode" - it has a detailed example
for concatenating 2 media files.

Hope this helps

Kind regards,

Re: LC 9.6.7 and Applescript

Hello jbv,

This sounds like bug https://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=23576,

Re: Xcode

[panagiotis m via use-livecode]

Hello Klaus,

You do not have to use the latest version of Xcode if your goal is to be
able to deploy to the latest version of iOS.

This is the reason we have not moved (yet) to a newer Xcode version - you
can still use Xcode 13.2 to build apps that will run not only on devices
running the current most recent iOS version but also on future iOS versions.

Hope this helps.

Kind regards,
Panos

Re: Where is the pdf external in LC 9.6 and 10?

Hello all,

We will bring back XPDF, since it has some functionality that the PDF

Re: Quick Windows 11 test...

[panagiotis m via use-livecode]

Hello all,

The function systemversion() returns 10.16.0 on MacOS Big Sur and above.
This is something we should fix.

As a workaround, until this is fixed, you can use this to get the system
version on MacOS:

function mySystemVersion
   get shell("sw_vers -productVersion")
   return it
end mySystemVersion

Cheers,
