Hi Everyone,

In each field, put a scrollBarDrag handler as follows:

on scrollBarDrag pNewValue
 set the vScroll of fld OtherField to pNewValue
 set the vScroll of fld SomeField to pNewValue
end scrollbarDrag

pNewValue contains the setting for the scroll of the current field, so
just apply that to all the others.

Cheers,

Hi,
If you want only one of the fld be controlling the others, you could  
use (in the controlling field script) :


set the vScroll of fld otherField to the vScroll of me

You *might* get better performance (ie keeping the fields in sync) by
placing non-scrolling fields in a group and scrolling the group, rather than
using multiple scrolling fields.

Hi,

I need a small lesson in using database:

1. I created a db (using SQLite3) with several fields. One of them is 
a boolean field. It is corresponding to a checkbox button in the card 
of my stack. Only one record of the database is displayed on the card.


2. I built a query that selects some of the records of my db and sorts 
them by some fields.


3. With a forward and backward button revdb_movenext(recordSetID) 
and revdb_moveprev(recordSetID) I navigate through the records of 
the recordSet.


4. With a script set the hilite of btn checkbox to 
revdb_columnbynumber(recordSetID,5) I display the database fields of 
the actual record in the fields of my card.


5. Then I wrote a script for the checkbox button 
revdb_execute(recordSetID,tSQL) with tSQL like: UPDATE my_db SET 
checkbox = true   and so on. I tested it with the SQLite 
Database Browser: the changes have been saved.


6. When I use my forward and backward button, to switch to the next 
record and then back to the changed record I do not see the change in 
my field or in my special case, the checkbox is not hilited.


7. When I close the current cursor (recordSet) and make a new query 
the checkbox is hilited.


I learned that the UPDATE-script changes the database but it do not 
change the cursor (recordSet).
But the forward/backward button do not display the content of the 
database but the content of the current cursor (recordSet).


- How can I get the content of the database?
- Do I have to make a new query after every change of fields?
- Or is it better to use the revdb_query funktion only to get a sorted 
list of primary keys of the wanted records and to use the 
revdb_querylist funktion to display the content of the db fields on 
the card?


I am rather confused.

Re: Locking flds of group to scroll

2007-01-19 Thread Klaus Major

Hi Sarah and Herschel,

 Hi, Is it possible to lock the scroll of flds of a group to  
scroll e.g. The
 scrolls are not checked but if the lines are more then the fld  
shows then
 the fld scrolls even without the bar, therefore id like to know  
if and how
 there is a possibility to lock that and only with the group  
scroll it should

 show the rest of the fld lines
Ok, figured that out by now.
The question if and how it is possible to scroll the group with  
the scroll

wheel?


Yes it is. You need to find out what key codes your scroll wheel sends
to the rawKeyUp or rawKeyDown handlers, then use them to set the
scroll of your group.

I can't remember what the codes are, but if you write a fake
rawKeyDown handler, you can get it to put the codes it is receiving
and find out what they are.


These are the rawkey codes for the mousescrollwheel:
65309 (up)
65308 (down)


Cheers,
Sarah

Physical Screen Size

2007-01-19 Thread Tim Ponn

Hello!

I'm working on a project and I would like to get the physical  
screen size of the system.  Is there a way to do this?  I see how to  
get many of the screen attributes...but as to physical siza...nadda.


A cheesy way to do this, I suppose, would be to display an object  
when the app is started up and ask the user to measure it and enter  
the measurement.  Based on that I could calculate the size of the  
screen.


Has anyone discovered how to do this?

Re: Physical Screen Size

2007-01-19 Thread Mark Schonewille

Hi Tim,

Normally, people set the screen resolution to a higher number because  
they want more to fit on their screen. They would be surprised to see  
that your application doesn't show more on screen despite a higher  
resolution, if you manage to do this.


I don't think that the actual screen size is of any importance.  
Sometimes, it could be useful to adjust an application to the screen  
resolution, e.g. if you are making a full-screen interface. The  
physical screen size has nothing to do with this.


So, why would you want to do this?

Best,

Mark

calling a remote function..

2007-01-19 Thread Chipp Walters

Trying to call function 'foo(param1,param2)' in button bar from somewhere
outside the message path.

So, I do this:

put 1,000 into param1
put Soldiers into param2
get value(foo(param1,param2),btn bar)

Sadly, the literals param1 and param2 are passed to foo instead of the
variables.
I've tried escaping, quoting, and waving a half dead chicken over foo. No
good. Any ideas?

TRY YOURSELF
Create a new stack:
create button bar with script:

function foo param1,param2
 answer param1 cr param2
end foo

Create another button PressMe

on mouseUp
 put 1,000 into param1
 put soldiers into param2
 answer value(foo(param1,param2),btn bar)

Try using the Call, as this is supposed to keep the current variable
environment even though you are outside the message path.  This is from the
original HCard navigation so you could travel across hard drives and

I have never used this, so testing is required.

Ah, I see. How about:

answer value(foo(  quote  p1  quote  comma  p2  ),btn bar)

admittedly, this is going to be unwieldy if all your params might  
contain quotes, so then perhaps you need to use Ken Rays q function:


answer value(foo(  q(p1)  comma  q(p2)  ), btn bar)

Re: Physical Screen Size

2007-01-19 Thread Ian Wood
If you *have* to have the physical dimensions, remember that some of  
the odder screen resolution settings don't have the same vertical and  
horizontal pixels per inch, so the user will need to measure in both  
directions.
Rather than asking the user to measure an object (and enter the  
measurement) it might be easier to vary the size of the object to  
match a ruler, i.e. please line the ruler up with the left end of  
the bar, and drag the right end of the bar until it reaches the 10cm  
mark on the ruler.


I don't know of ANY other way to find out the physical dimensions,  
even Apple don't manage it on their own hardware.

Something like that.
I've got into the habit of replacing commas with *comma* in the

Re: Physical Screen Size

2007-01-19 Thread Tim Ponn

Mark,

I understand why folks set their screen res the way they do...I know  
someone who always sets it at the highest possible...never mind that  
it's nearly impossible to see the icons on their desktop without  
magnification!  ;=)


Here's my application and why it's important to me...

We designed and built an extremely accurate 3 axis cnc micro-driller  
about 7 years ago which is controlled by a HyperCard stack.  We use  
it in production to drill holes as small as .010 dia. through a  
variety of plastics with a guaranteed accuracy of .00025.  The work  
area is small, just 4 square...but it has served our needs  
perfectly.  In my stack, I represent the work area on screen in  
exactly the same size...WYSIWYG-in-extreme, if you will.  When the  
file is loaded, the pattern is displayed.  As each hole is drilled,  
the appropriate circle is filled in on the screen.
I've used Rev for about 5 years now, and am converting this stack  
into a rev app.  If we were only using it in house, no biggie, I  
would just tweak the display like I did last time.  But now we're  
thinking of building and selling these machines (with perhaps a 12  
square work area and higher RPM drill head to allow for smaller  
drills) to others.


Now...it just occurred to me as I was writing this...a good work  
around may be to tweak it on my monitor until it's the same scale,  
then use my set resolution to recalculate and change size based on  
the resolution of the user.  In fact, I'm certain that will work.


Thanks for your poking, you got me to think!

Hi TIm,

Of course, you could make a few presets for the most common  
resolutions, but you won't be able to create presets for all current  
and future resolutions. Instead, I'd make a simple interface to  
adjust the size of the working space on screen. I don't think that  
people will mind that the size is not exactly the same as in reality,  
but they will appreciate the possibility to enlarge the view.

check for the result variable for my return values. This works very  
fine.


I know you're trying to call functions and not handlers but I've  
entered the same trouble you're in now and solved it by using  
handlers and send. I know this is no solution and just a hack, but it  
is working and it is easy to understand.

Sadly, the literals param1 and param2 are passed to foo instead  
of the

I've tried escaping, quoting, and waving a half dead chicken over

TRY YOURSELF
Create a new stack:
create button bar with script:

function foo param1,param2
 answer param1 cr param2
end foo

Create another button PressMe

on mouseUp
 put 1,000 into param1
 put soldiers into param2
 answer value(foo(param1,param2),btn bar)

Re: calling a remote function..

2007-01-19 Thread Chipp Walters

Ding ding. You win the prize.

answer value(foo(  q(param1)  comma  q(param2)  ), btn bar)

works. I had tried something similar:

answer value(foo(  q(param1) , q(param2)  ), btn bar)
but couldn't get it to compile. I'm just used to the compiler not having to
be explicitly told to concatenate comma delimited items.

IOW, I'm used to:
put tLeft,tTop,tRight,tBot into tRect
and just assumed it would still work. My bad. Thanks Mark!!!

Ah, I see. How about:

admittedly, this is going to be unwieldy if all your params might

answer value(foo(  q(p1)  comma  q(p2)  ), btn bar)

 That's close, but still no cigar. Because Param1 has a comma in it, it

Re: Physical Screen Size

2007-01-19 Thread Luis

Hiya,

If you can determine the monitor type you could probe a database of 
configurations/resolution/dpi settings etc and then calculate the image 
size (using its coordinates) based on this information.
I haven't looked into this but I reckon OSX and WXP have these in the 
system somewhere (so they can 'plug and play').



Cheers,

Luis.

Hi TIm,

Of course, you could make a few presets for the most common resolutions, 
but you won't be able to create presets for all current and future 
resolutions. Instead, I'd make a simple interface to adjust the size of 
the working space on screen. I don't think that people will mind that 
the size is not exactly the same as in reality, but they will appreciate 
the possibility to enlarge the view.

around may be to tweak it on my monitor until it's the same scale, 
then use my set resolution to recalculate and change size based on the

Re: write to and read from a hardware address directly, possible?

Hello,

Is it possible to write to a hardware address directly from runrev?

Can I set or get the value with native commands in runrev?

Hmmm, ok. What you could then do is open a dialogue box asking for

default to the most common dpi for that 'type' of monitor.

altBrowser + windowshape

I was wondering if anyone's had any luck getting an embedded web browser to 
work when the stack containing it has a WindowShape? Seems when I activate 
the window shape, the browser control refuses to appear. If it's impossible 
to get the windowshape thingy to work, does anyone has a nice handler to 
keep a substack (with decorations set to none) to follow along with another 
substack? (the one with my windowshape)

Good considerations, Dick.

Stepping back from it, even a very complete solution will yield code

Out of sheer laziness if nothing else, if I was faced with this I'd 
probably either find some way to put what I need in the message path, or

A Single SetProp?

2007-01-19 Thread Scott Rossi
Howdy List:

I'm just now coming to grips to with the SetProp control structure and was
wondering if there is a way to trigger a single SetProp structure (that
contains a switch statement) when setting *any* custom property, or do you
have to use a separate SetProp structure for *each property* you want to
monitor.  Something like:

 setProp anyOfMyProps pValue
   switch anyOfMyProps
case propA
  doSomeStuff
break
case propB
  doOtherStuff
   end switch
 end anyOfMyProps

I have the feeling this isn't proper usage but I thought I'd ask anyway.

switch anyOfMyProps
 case propA
   doSomeStuff
 break
 case propB
   doOtherStuff
end switch
  end anyOfMyProps
 
 I have the feeling this isn't proper usage but I thought I'd ask anyway.

Sorry, Scott - you need to define one setProp for each property being 
set. In a way it's kind of like trying to have an on anyHandlerName 
handler to trap calls made to any handler... just ain't gonna happen.

One way you can get close to it, is use a custompropertyset setprop:

setprop MyCustomPropertySet[ pProp ] pValue
 switch pProp
  case propA
 doSomeStuff
  break
case propB
 doOtherStuff
  break
 end switch
end MyCustomPropertySet

Incidentally, this is a way you can have two-parameter setprops!

AltFont External On Intel Mac

2007-01-19 Thread Bridger Maxwell

Hey,
 I was trying to work with the AltFont external, but I couldn't get it to
load as an external, while I was successful with the other externals.  I
looked at the AltFont bundle, and discovered it was PPC.  I have been able
to get it to work by forcing Revolution to run under Rosetta, but that is
definitely not a solution I would like use permanently .  Is there any other
solution to this, or is there a Universal Binary external somewhere?

Re: Altplug-ins demo stacks...

2007-01-19 Thread Bridger Maxwell

It is a problem in the initme handler.  Change line 2 (the non commented
one) to to read:

put http://downloads.runrev.com/alt_externals/altFont.zip  into
lMacExternalUrl

They accidentally spelled Mac with an x when updating the code to reflect
the new download site.  Once that is fixed you will have to run openstack
again, then click on the Update External button and it should work.
 I am not sure about the crashing stack, maybe someone else can help.  I do
know that the external is PPC, so if you are running an Intel Mac, you might
have problems (see my post).

I have found bugs using the altfont demo

1. installing the plug-in:
Unzip problem:
ditto: Couldn't read PKZip signature

3. running the demo
after I installed manually the altfont bundle in externals, I ran
demo. It crashed.

Any help would be valued now.. :-)

Your suggestion is a lot like what you can do for any number of custom
properties all in the same custom property set:

setprop uMyCustomPropertySet[pCustomProperty] pValue
  switch pCustomProperty
case propA
  put 1 into tValue
  break
case propB
  put 2 into tValue
default
  put 3 into tValue
  end switch
  ask the params  cr  tValue
  set the uMyCustomPropertySet[pCustomProperty] of the target to tValue
end uMyCustomPropertySet[pCustomProperty]

See setprop in the dictionary.
