Well, there's inheritance at work in Rev, so if your mainstack had text and borders set to white and your substack didn't set them at all, it would inherit the white color from its mainstack. As soon as you convert the substack to a mainstack, it uses the "default" colors, which are black text and black borders. All you need to do is to set them for the new mainstack and you're done.

Re: commands stop working when stacks call remote stacks
The two problems are: Your events.rev stack has no answer stack and so no way to display a dialog, unless the IDE is running. Possibly, if you make sure that your Trigger app includes the answer dialog, it will work. With the filename problem, you have loaded the events.rev stack from the net and it is in memory but not yet saved to disk, so it has no filename.

Perhaps there's a better way to do this: I've got a stack called "Trigger", which has a button on it.

If I'm running the stack in Revolution authoring mode, the mouseUp handler completes everything. If I run this stack via the "Trigger" Revolution app which calls it remotely, it skips those 2 lines. What's weird is that I hear all the beeps, so I know the script is all there. Any idea why certain commands are becoming invalid when run remotely?

Re: problems running Rev standalones under Panther with limited user accounts
The problem now is under Panther only. My standalone is installed to the Applications folder. When logged in with an admin account, it works as expected. But when I log in with a limited account, if I try to launch the app, it flashes in the dock for a split second, I see the zooming effect of the icon as if it's trying to run, but then it dies. If I copy the app to the limited user's directory, it runs as expected. So something in the security settings is preventing the app from running normally, at least I'm guessing that's the case. But all other applications run as expected when logged in with the limited user. I've tried playing with the security and permissions settings on my app's folder, but can't quite seem to get the right combination of settings. I haven't used limited accounts but I did encounter this problem when I copied an application over directly to a different computer without compressing it first. If you check the permissions of your application, you will see that only the owner has write permission. It is likely that your admin user is the owner, and the limited user therefore is not allowed to write. For some reason, this seems to prevent the application from starting up. You could try using the Finder's Get Info window to set the permissions so that anyone can write, but I have found this unreliable and prefer to use the Terminal. Open the Terminal, cd to the folder containing your app and then use the following command: chmod -R 777 YourAppName.app/ This will make every file in your application bundle readable & writable by everyone. You may prefer to make sure the limited user is in the same group as the owner and change the permissions to 775 instead.

Re: Wacky Submenu Problem under OS X
Hi Frank, i set up a copy of your menu but had great trouble allocating the mnemonics. I would enter a menu item like "5162", click the mnemonic checkbox and select "2" from the popup at which point the item would show up as "51&62". This happened with all except the first entry in the submenu, so when I got the same sort of result you did (although my submenu started with 5160), I wondered was it the mnemonics that were causing the problem. In the Message Box, I typed: replace "&" with "" in button "File" and all the submenus came good - with or without the "Print Labels" menu item. I guess these mnemonics are a Windows feature that doesn't translate properly to the Mac, but I reckon you should bugzilla it anyway, Cheers, Sarah On 30 Oct 2004, at 12:14 am, Frank D.

Re: Table field questions
Hi Jack I figured out how to change the width of columns using the tabstops setting under table in the object inspecter. As you know it changes all the column widths. Is there a way to change the width just 1 of the columns? You absolutely can! The way that property works is that you can use a comma-separated list of values. Each value is the number of pixels from the left edge to that tab stop. For example, if you have 75,85,120 as the value, then: The first tab stop will be 75 pixels from the left edge The second tab stop will be 85 pixels from the left edge The third tab stop will be 120 pixels from the left edge Then revolution will fill in tab stops for the remaining visible space to the right using the difference between the last two values as an increment. So in the example that I just quoted to you, the difference between 85 and 120 is 35, so it will automatically fill in tab stops at 155, 190, etc. So you just need to supply enough values to cover the visible are of you table at which point to can tweak any individual column. --gordon ___ use-revolution mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution

This is the simpleserver implementation, it serves FTP, HTTP and XML-RPC out of the box, no configuration needed, just start it up! it comes with demos and some documentation (preliminary documentation) more will be added, I just wanted to show all you folks and to stress test the server a little so that I can finish it's touch.libNetServies is a full transcript implementation of HTTP, FTP and XML-RPC server side in nice backscripts format. You can also download the preliminary code. it works fine, anyone using previous RevHTTPd or ServerWorkz packages should update to this one.see the new inform engine converting cards to webforms on the fly. see the FTP server serving it's own core. see HTTPd mapping from websp ace to revolution and back with no fuss...also see /snapshot, screenshots at runtime.Cheersandre-- Andre Alves Garzia ð 2004 ð BRAZILhttp://studio.soapdog.org___use-revolution mailing list[EMAIL PROTECTED]http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution ___ Join Excite! - http://www.excite.com The most personalized portal on the Web! ___ use-revolution mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
Re: FileFormat for uploading/downloading OS X apps
Another point is that OS X apps are *NOT* files -- they are "Bundles", which are actually folders disguised as files. If you try to treat the app as a file you are likely to run into problems with transfers like this. You need some kind of archive mechanism to be able to transfer the entire application as a folder, not as a file. That is why something like Stuffit is needed. Another idea is to place the app into a disk image (a .dmg file) using Apple's Disk Utility. Assuming you have OS X.3: Open Disk Utility (in Applications/Utilities) and click the "New Image" button in the toolbar. Provide a location for the image, and specify the size you need (at least large enough to hold the application bundle), and encryption if desired, then make sure that read/write is specified as the disk image format. Save the image file. When the image has been created, Disk Utility will automatically mount the image as a disk, which you can simply copy the application to. The disk image (.dmg file) is a simple file, which should be easy to transmit across the internet. Double-clicking on the resulting file under an OS X system will then mount the image as a disk again, so that you can access the application inside. You could alternatively create a read-only disk image, even a compressed one, if you take the time to figure out how. Maybe someone else knows how to mount a disk image using a shell() call or something similar?

Rob, I don't know what you're trying to do, but, one way is to use stuffit to compress and libURL for the download/upload. StuffIt works great and preserves the MacOS resource forks. Another way, is to use gzip compression, you can script a stack to compress something using gzip and to upload/download the file to the server... cheers andre -- Andre Alves Garzia 2004 BRAZIL http://studio.soapdog.org ___ use-revolution mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution ___ $0 Web Hosting with up to 120MB web space, 1000 MB Transfer 10 Personalized POP and Web E-mail Accounts, and much more.

Re: Scrolling list of Groups
Hi Mike, Sorry, I was perhaps not clear enough in my original posting. I am looking to learn how to add a group dynamically to the bottom of scrolling group from within a script rather than thru the IDE. I am thinking of having the scrolling group already pre-populated with a single grouped item. I am thinking that I must clone that single group, rename it and adjust it's location. Ok that gets me two items in the scrolling list. Later, how do I find the last group in the scrolling list so I can clone it and add another one below it? Am I on the right track here? Yep :-) Well, the last group in your list (another group) will be ehmm "the last group of grp xyz"! :-) So you could just: ... lock screen put the num of grps of grp "yadda" into the_number clone grp the_number of grp "yadda" set the topleft of grp the_number + 1 of group "yadda" to the \ bottomleft of grp the_number of group "yadda" unlock screen ... ##where "yadda" is the name of your scrolling list group Hope that helps.

RE: Scrolling list of Groups
Hi Mike, It sounds like you're more or less on the right track. I created a scrolling grid which has somewhat similar requirements, although in that case I'm cloning a field rather than a group. But I think the principle is the same. What I do is use a propertiy to keep track of how many cells there are, and also have a naming scheme (R1C1) for the fields that describes their location. I always clone the first field and never delete it. The location of the clone is determined by calculating its offset from the first cell, based on the number of currently existing cells and their size. In my case though the cells can be resized, all the cells are the same size, which makes things easier. Hope this helps Martin Baxter >Sorry, I was perhaps not clear enough in my original posting.
