The list won't actually need to scroll.  However
the selected item needs to hilight the image as
well as the text in the listbox.  I played around
with a scrolling group but I can't get it to higlight
in the right way.  The list works perfectly except that
the text is always justified to the bottom.  I tried
fooling with buttons.  but again the text is always formated
at the bottom.

Re: url GET https requests --> "walking" thru certificate issues

Sounds to me like you need to download and install a certificate and  
then use this certificate in Rev - the process you describe is what  
the browser does to install this certificate - so one way or another  
you need to get Rev to point to this certificate on the local machine  
- see the recent post from Dar regarding my question

From the following url

   https://www.cacert.org/index.php?id=3

download the Class 1 (PEM format) Root Certificate. (This will be a  
file named "root.crt")


Then set the sslCertificates to this file:

   set the sslCertificates to "/whatever/root.crt"

Then to test, try to connect to ths test url:  https://www.cacert.org/

   put url "https://www.cacert.org/"; into tData
   if the result is not empty then
 answer the result
   else
 answer "seem to be working"
   end if

There should be no need to use libUrlSetSSLVerification. It is true  
by default, but if you have previously set it to false, then you  
should reset it to true. It certainly won't harm to specifically  
set it to true.

Some sleuthing on the web revealed that in 10.2 the file is located here

Re: Set the icon to (icon of another stack)--YES!

2006-01-10 Thread Rob Cozens

Bon Jurno, Paul,


You got reason, perhaps I have not explained well the problem. My stack is
an utility that simply shows the images of another choosen stack opened by
the user; so I cannot know if the user have one or many open stacks, and
what stack was opened before, or the potential ID conflicts.

That's why my only goal was to succeed to indicate exactly from which open
stack my utility read the images, avoiding eventual ID conflicts of
previously opened stacks.


1. Would this work?

Create a number of invisible thumbnail images [not buttons; 
lock size & position] on the image display

card of your utility stack.

Utility stack script:

answer file "Please select a stack to see its images..."
if the result is "Cancel" then exit to top
push card
lock screen
repeat with x = 1 to the number of images of me
hide image x of me
end repeat
open invisible stack it
repeat with x = 1 to the number of images of stack it
set the imageData of image x of me to the 
imageData of image x of stack it

show image x of me
end repeat
close stack it
pop card
set the itemDelimiter to "/"
put item -1 of it into field "Image Source" -- if 
you want the image stack name to appear

unlock screen

I presume you have logic to handle the case where there are 
more images in the stack you are opening then
there are buttons to display them.  Just change it to deal 
with images.


2.  I previously suggested when a thread boils down to two or three 
people, it should be taken off list.  Actually, I was focusing on 
off-topic conversations, and feel that conversations such as this 
between Paul & moi should remain on the list so long as the focus is 
strictly how to use Revolution.  Do others agree or disagree?

Problem with printing in landscape mode

2006-01-10 Thread Levi Kendall
Hi All,
  I'm currently having a problem with printing in landscape mode in
Revolution.  The problem seems to be related to displaying the print
dialog.  I've only tried this on a windows system, but the documentation
indicates that Mac OS does not support the setting "printRotated" so it's
not really applicable either.

The following 2 lines of code should print the card "mycard" in landscape
mode.  However I end up with a portrait mode page.  (As a side note the
stack that mycard is in is sized 400x400.)

  answer printer
  set the printRotated to true
  print card "mycard" into 72,72,(72+400),(72+400)

Now if the option of selecting a printer is removed from the code the
printout will properly use landscape.  However I've noticed I have to
shutdown the entire Rev-IDE and restart it to have this work if "answer
printer" has been called at any time in the current session.  So the revised
code reads as follows and after restarting Revolution and I get landscape
mode.

  set the printRotated to true
  print card "mycard" into 72,72,(72+400),(72+400)

If at all possible I need the user to be able to select which printer to
use.  Bypassing this option and using the default printer is not an
acceptable change to the functionality of the program.  Does anyone know how
to fix this or have encoutered the same or similar issue?  Thanks.

Hi Levi,

In Mac OSX, the dialog box displayed by "answer printer" includes the 
option to change orientation to landscape mode; so in that 
environment you simply need to instruct the user to select landscape.


On Win XP, Rev v2.6.1, the answer printer dialog includes a 
preferences button that allows the user to change orientation to 
landscape.  What happens if you select it & set the orientation, with 
or without the following "set the printRotated..." statement?

 The setting the user picks will take effect in the "answer printer" options
pages.  Regardless of the value of printRotated.  Even if printRotated is
set to false after the answer printer page it will print in landscape mode
if the user selected such in the printer settings window.

 Ideally the user would not be responsible for specifying the print
orientation.  This is a feature I'd prefer the program to handle exclusively
without requiring the user to correctly change the orientation.  Certain
pages in the program I'm working on are designed to be printed exlusively in
each orientation and will not be useable in the other orientation.

No, it's in the DC Player itself. In the DreamCard player, when the
revOnline Viewer is displayed, you can click on the folder icon to pick a
file to run, or you can click on the Revolution logo next to the folder icon
to bring up preferences, including whether to set the secure mode on or off

it would seem which causes errors ???

if you must wait for ">" before "any write or ... read" then firstly  
your code needs another wait statement. The above code will write  
after reading and without waiting for a ready character, which is the  
problem you report.


The following will work _provided_ you are happy that you will always  
receive the requisite characters )and that the device is ready the  
first time) or else it will wait forever.

repeat N
  write something
  wait for ">"
  read something
  wait for ">"

In the basic form of the loop above you will need an outside "send"  
statement to make sure things are still alive and get you out of  
problems, which would require a construct along the lines of 'wait  
for ">" with messages'


This might be done better with "wait for messages" then test whether  
the message was one which allows you to read/write or if you must  
exit the loop.

Quiting a Standalone

2006-01-10 Thread Marty Knapp
I'm building a single stack standalone which will give the user the 
option of saving data upon closing or quiting (to text files). I'm 
confused about how to do this. I've been trying the "shutDown" message 
but have not found it to be 100%. If I click the closebox on the stack 
it seems to catch it every time, but if I choose "Quit" fron the menu, 
it works about 80% of the time. (Trying out Rev 2.6.1)


I don't understand the functional difference between using shutdown and 
shutdownrequest, other than shutdownrequest allowing you to pass or not 
pass.


Anybody have a recipe for me?

That works if you click the close box, but doesn't get sent if you 
select Quit from the menu.


I also tried this:

on shutdownRequest
   answer "Save data?" with "Cancel" or "Save" or "Dont Save"
   if it is "Cancel" then
   exit shutdownRequest
   else if it is "Save" then
   --do save stuff
   end if
   pass shutdownRequest
end shutdownRequest

It works, but if I select "Cancel" is exits the handler, but the next 
time I shut down, the shutdownRequest does not run - quits without 
prompting me . . .


This issue aside, it looks like I need to trap for the stack closing and 
for the Quit menu selection. I had thought that the shutdown message 
would handle both, but as i said, is unreliable when using the menu to quit.


Any wisdom for me? Thanks,

Hmm.  I hadn't tried it on a menu.  You could create a
procedure named something unique and then call it from
the menu option or closestackrequest.  e.g. "MyCloseResult".
Calling it thus makes it a single procedure that can be
used by both handlers - rather than copying the code to
both the closestackrequest and Quit menu option.

Re: Restricting display to 1024*768 on wider screens,

After further thought, I am curious what you are not discovering that would
so what you need.  My last suggestion was to basically build a picture frame
to block the surrounding area revealing only the rectangle to be shown.

However, perhaps you are thinking that the surrounding area should reveal
the desktop, or other apps/windows rather than the picture frame technique.

This was my original take on your description, but then you said this was
not what you wanted with the WindowLab so now I am a bit confused.

Let me say this...  If you want surrounding transparency, you would draw the
black rectangle to match the maximum rectangle (content for the user), put
that black rectangle behind the content and setting the windowShape to the
black image id.  Now the surround would be transparent, no matter how big
the monitor.

If these techniques don't do the job, then I really don't understand what
you are trying to do.  Perhaps you could send me an old version of your
stack and I could play with it.

Re: animations on a card

2006-01-10 Thread Mark Schonewille

Dear Preston,

It doesn't make sense to count the number of animations.

In the Arcade Engine, you could count the number of objects. 
Usually, objects are animated by attaching a script to them. You 
do this manually, using the script editor.


The Animation Builder does little more than remembering the 
position of each object for each "frame" of your animation. 
There is a series of locations for each animated object. It 
looks like you have a number of animations, but in fact it is 
just a number of objects that change location. The different 
locations are kept in custom properties starting with 
cREVAnimation. The custom properties are in the animated objects.


So, animations are related to objects and objects are on a 
particular card or in a group on a number of cards.


Perhaps I/we can provide better advice if you can explain why 
exactly you need this.


Best,

Mark

Sorry - I was unclear in my first request. 
What I mean is: How can you tell what animations are on a particular card? Is the information in the Inspector or is it necessary to open revanimate.rev? I think Arcade Engine stores them as custom properties of the object but I couldn't find the animations of revanimate.rev that way. Probably just my dumb mistake.

Thanks

Though probably possible, I doubt that this is practical, except  
perhaps with an external, or unless you can somehow get it from  
Quicktime.

But maybe someone here knows better.

Rev on Universal Binary

2006-01-10 Thread Jesse Sng

Hi,

Now that Apple has shipped some machines that are running on Intel 
processors, I'm wondering if there are announcements on the part of 
RunRev as to when there might be Universal Binary editions of 
Revolution?


What are the implications with respect to plug ins? Potentially it 
could mean that an Intel based Rev calling a PowerPC plugin. Has 
anyone done some evaluation of those things?

Re: audio wave form

2006-01-10 Thread Mark Smith
Now I must eat my words. I've just been fooling around with an aiff  
file and the binaryDecode function, and I find that it seems like it  
would be absolutely possible and practical to display audio waveforms  
in rev. It's going to take a bit of work to make it usable, and I  
have to find out about the structures of different file types, but  
once again I'm amazed at what might be done.


I'll try to make some kind of library, or at least a workable  
starting point.

At a bit of a loss

2006-01-10 Thread Scott Kane
Hi,

I have to use the SQLQuery Builder (yes I know the risks)
for a demonstration stack for a potential client (a zoo) .  I can
do everything manually, but I haven't got the time as I
have to show it tomorrow afternoon and I only have a few hours.  What 
I've done is setup db QB for browsing and editing.  Works fine.  However
I've 
drawn a blank on inserting records into the table.  As an
example a table with the following fields (using field objects)

First field "herpName".  Second field "CommonName", Third field
"LatinName".  These are connected to field controls that are
labelled "herpName", "edCommonName and "LatinName".  What I'm
needing to do is insert the values of these fields into the
relevant fields of the database.

The reason I'm short cutting with DB QB is because I have to
create a total of twelve stacks with related data.  I just
can't code in Rev fast enough to do that.

Any help greatly appreciated...

Scott
