RE: Silly Array Question

Yeah, that's what I thought as well.
I'm only trying to delete an element in an array.
In text fields it is a snap to delete a line.

I probably shouldn't answer this since I'm somewhat of a newbie, but I 
think arrays in Rev are really hashes or shelves. So when you do delete 
variable something[x] you are telling the array to drop the key named x 
and it's value.

I have had the same problem.  And I suspect the same reason--I don't 
know how to use the error reporting dialogs.

The error string that a catch gets is not very helpful.

Well, when I make the script it errors like this:

 € There was a Script Compile Error at 11:26:47 AM
Error description:  Handler: bad command
Object: button id 1006 of card id 1002 of stack "/Macintosh HD/Desktop
Folder/MyRev Stacks/TTS Speech Test.rev"

import snapshot from rect "28,90,118,128" of window id 475509520

Value: 475509520

...but the value IS the value of the current window ID for the stack I
specified, because I checked it.

No other value for the result at all.

I closed out the stacks, even closed Rev, then went back and reopened
everything. Of course, that means the window id changes so I rewrote the
script as shown in the error report (still doesn't work) below. Note the new
window id, which is correct as I checked it separately in the Message Box
(put the windowID of stack "Practice 1").

 € There was an Execution Error at 11:35:47 AM
Error description:  Object: does not have this property
Object: button id 1006 of card id 1002 of stack "/Macintosh HD/Desktop
Folder/MyRev Stacks/TTS Speech Test.rev"

import snapshot from rect "28,90,118,128" of window id (windowID of stack
"Practice 1")

Value: 447832976

...but of course, the object (stack window) actually DOES have the property
and reports it accurately according to the error dialog.

The command WILL reproduce a SCREEN image given the proper screen rect, but
errors if I try to reproduce an image using coordinates inside the specified
window.

It must be the command that is failing, even though it is apparently written
correctly according to the Transcript Dictionary. Is it a bug?

RE: Trap/script for arrow keys?

2003-03-07 Thread Derek Huby
Monte's script:

on arrowKey tKey
put the loc of btn "Fish" into tLoc
  switch tKey
case "left"
   subtract 10 from item 1 of tLoc
  break
case "right"
add 10 to item 1 of tLoc
  break
case "up"
subtract 10 from item 2 of tLoc
case "down"
add 10 to item 2 of tLoc
break
 end switch
 set the loc of btn "Fish" to tLoc
end arrowKey

.. works beautifully here, except that there's a "break" missing in the "up"
case statement.

Peace,

Re: Not using QT for Video playback on OsX

Hi Malte,

Hi,

this one is for the Mac OsX users on the list (which I am not yet).
Is it possible to choose another playback system on OsX for digital 
Video,
like it should be on *nix Systems with

set the videoClipPlayer to playerpath?

Has anyone tested it?

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Malte
i think you have bad luck...

As far as i know, QuickTime is the only multimedia-layer on OS X.
It is a part of the "deeper" core of OS X.
Means: QuickTime or die ;-)

This is from the doxs:

VideoClipPlayer:
This property can be used on UNIX systems to specify an alternate
name for the xanim player used to play movies with the "play" command.
Since there is no Xanim player of OS X i think you cannot cahnge that...

Anyway, have a nice weekend :-)

possible that there is a better solution.
As far as inserting these characters, you can do it
the long way like I did and copy the character to the
clipboard and then paste it into your text.  Are you
using external text files or static text in a field?
You could probably make the process a lot easier by
writing a small script that would search through a
block of text, locate any sentence-ending punctuation
(".", "!", "?", etc.) and then insert the special
character after the punctuation.  I haven't done this
yet because I was just trying to throw something
together to show my boss, but I'm sure it would work.
Keep in mind that it will look like a space when on
the screen, so you may also have to remove existing
spaces at the end of sentences.
As for the unicode thing, that's a little beyond my
skills at this point.  Sorry.  Maybe someone else on
the list can address that one.
