List Field and Ask Dialog
Hello I have a List Field with some lines of text. When clicking a line I want the Ask dialog shown, fill in a number and have that number put in (with a tab) after the last word of the line. 1. This script in the Text Field works: on mouseUp put tab 1 after the last word of the selectedText -- the number 1 is an test end mouseUp 2. But if I add the Ask-dialog: on mouseUp ask How many? put tab it after the last word of the selectedText end mouseUp I have this error: Chunk: no target found put tab it after the last word of the selectedText Value: mouseUp I have tried a lot of different ways (clickText, clickLine, selectedLine...) but always the same error: Chunk: no target found Anyone having a solution? An idea? All help will be appreciated! Thanks. Magnus von Brömsen ___ use-revolution mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
Re: List Field and Ask Dialog
Magnus Without giving you the text of the answer, your problem is that in your test case you have already selected a line in the field so the chunk (selectedText) is valid. After the ask dialog that field is no longer selected so any chunk address fails. You need to note the line you selected before the ask dialog and then reselect it before doing the put statement. regards David On Saturday, April 6, 2002, at 06:41 , Magnus von Brömsen wrote: Hello I have a List Field with some lines of text.

Re: How use shell on MacOS X ?

In the mean time you might want to try this function that uses AppleScript. I mentioned it on the list a couple weeks ago. I have only used it a few times. I know nothing about AppleScript, but with a tiny bit of fooling around I came up with this: function shellSH cmd -- Sorry, no quote marks in cmd in this version -- And shellCommand is ignored put do shell script quote cmd quote into s do s as AppleScript put result() into r replace numToChar(13) with linefeed in r return r end shellSH This uses sh and not tcsh that the Terminal program uses. With out the replace command, the end-of-line sequence in returned text would be a single carriage return character. This function replaces it with linefeed, the standard Revolution end-of-line symbol. I had to use full paths when I used this. Since I have hardly used this, I don't know all the problems involved with using this function. Perhaps others have found some.

[OT humor] Learning Revolution Skills
My children have caught the Revolution bug. I have told them that if they work on their Revolution skills I'll contract some stack design to them. Even so, I was caught off-guard. My wife and the kids were making a lot of noise in the kitchen. I asked what was going on. My wife turned to me me and said loudly in her best tough-girl French-Russian accent, We are working on their revolution skills! And then turned to her crowd thrust her fist into the air and shouted, Brothers and sisters, unite!

I am still working (as Ihave time) on my virtual keyboard (for the disabled). The thing will do many actions, have many adjustable features and feedback, and be shareware. Font manipulation, in the case of onscreen keyboards especially, is an issue in a cross-platform situation. Although I've been told that a piece of software should be identical in all platforms, I'm beginning to see that may not be what I should be doing, i.e., I should take advantage of whatever will help the user on whatever platform they use. I intend to offer distribution on all platforms available on the same CD ROM. I don't see a way to make them all identical in operation and still take advantage of the uniqueness of each os. From a professional outlook, does anyone have any philosophical thoughts which pertain to public release of shareware on this point? It may make for more work, but I think it will be worthwhile.

RE: Jeanne...revAppVersion doesn't work?
Also, I hate to be a crab about it...but the help files still have the problem with apostrophe's on Windows. I know it's created for Macs, but can't someone figure out how to automatically convert the apostrophe's for windows? It kills all the links to help troubleshooter files. Jeanne, I checked out the latest version, and you are indeed correct. The apostrophe problem is not there. It appears even though I installed the RR1.1.1 do a different folder, it still used the help files (and the IDE?) from the older installation (probably a registy thing). In any case, I updated my RevCorral plugin (http://www.altuit.com/webs/altuit2/RunRev/Plugins.htm) to now display RevAppVersion(),Version(), and BuildNumber() on startup so I'll know what I'm working with! BTW, do you know why you can't set the loc of the answer? In SC you used to be able to: answer Thank-you at screenloc() but it doens't work that way in RR. Just wondering. -Chipp ___ use-revolution mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution

Image still cut off/menubar problem
Hi there, Mac PB 1400c, 133mhz, 48 mb, OS 8.6, SanDisk Flash memory 128 mb with 120 mb available for additional virtual RAM, RR 1.1b1 Three problems: 1) The full screen image I put in is still cut off at the top where the task buttons are. The image is mostly there, but it's pushed down. I've never seen anything like this before. When I push it back up into position, more of the top gets cut off. I tried sizing it's rect to the screen size (0,0,600,800 in this case) this way: on preOpenStack set the rect of image VirtualKeyboard to 0,0,600,800 end preOpenStack ...because I understood that's how to do it, but it doesn't work. Should I quote the rect dim's (the docs say not)? 2) I'm still having some kind of mental hangup with understanding the conceptual difference between HC's 'Background' and Rev's 'Groups' (might there be a way to plot this graphically so I can see what's actually happening?). If I want the image to appear throughout the main stack, i.e., on all the cards, how do I implement that? How will that affect the problem with it getting cut off at the top? 3) What do I do to hide the menubarin Rev (I looked for a solution and couldn't find anything in the docs)? I couldn't use the trusty manual method used by most Mac apps either (cmd/space).

Re: RR now charging royalities for runtimes?
Just a note, my .02 worth: Note: I didn't read every single post on this thread, so if anyone else already stated the obvious, I apologise. I wouldn't think, in Scotland or anywhere else in the UK, or the U.S., or any European countries, that anyone can legally overwrite a previous agreement. I reread my agreement, the one I got my license with, and there is no wording that looks even remotely like RR Ltd has the right to change it without permission, any more than I can change it without permission. They can issue a new agreement for licensees _after_ the current agreement runs out, one year from the date of the agreement, but they cannot enforce any changes to the current one without _both_ parties agreeing to do so. I believe that would be illegal and unenforceable anywhere in the world. So, the conclusion must be that none of the changes matter at all to previous licensees _until_ their licenses run out.
