Re: Initializing variables
When you have a long list of variables, it might be easier to try an array instead. For example: on mouseUp global myVar repeat with i = 1 to 1000 put 0 into myVar[i] end repeat end mouseUp So, instead of calling your variables x,y,z etc...you can simply call them myVar[1],myVar[2], etc good luck, mark in Japan Jim wrote: I have a list of variables, say "x,y,z" I would like to set each of these equal to zero. If I were to use the following: put "x,y,z" into tList repeat with i = 1 to 3 put 0 into item i of tList end repeat ___ use-revolution mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
Scanning machines on a network
A lot of software packages scan the local network to see if other copies of the software may be running with the same serial number. I've thought of many ways to accomplish this, but all of them seem slow and inefficient.

During this 30 second test, when the mouse button is pressed the

it is released, it does not change to up.

How can it? You have locked the first value into the loop until it
quits.
Could you clarify what you mean by this?

on mouseUp -- sends the up message -once- to the object whenever the

repeat 60 times -- begins a 60 cycle loop

end repeat
end mouseUp
You are trying to catch two different mouse messages in a mouse handler.
You're lucky it's not stalling out or giving you an error.

If a serial number comes in from a different computer that matches that of the listening copy, there's a serial number clash.

I've done quite a bit of TCP/IP programming, but have never done this, so take this with a grain of salt. Folks who have solved the problem may have tried and rejected this idea long ago.

revShowPrintDialog: Cancel print and other things
Hi, How do I cancel a print job when using revPrintText or revPrintFIeld? I use revShowPrintDialog true,true and I can cancel the printing if I select Cancel during page setup but if I click Cancel during dialog the job still prints. Also, how persistent and what is the scope of the showPageSetup and showPrint parameters of revShowPrintDialog? When I comment out the rSPD command, the last sPS and sP parameters used are still in effect.

I have been able get UDP working, so I think the above can be done in Revolution. However, I don't have a way to get the local IP, yet. (Receiving UDP is weird; at least it is the way I did it.)
