Re: Graphics disappear

2007-12-23 Thread Stephen Barncard
There have been issues with metal and Rev off and on for a while to 
the point where if I needed the metal look I would use a metal bg 
graphic instead. A bit more involved than a checkbox


Something to try:
See Eric Chartonet's Tutorial picker for the method. (The metal 
graphic is supplied)




here's the whole tutorial. Amost as fast to download the package.
http://www.sosmartsoftware.com/?r=revolution_didacticiels&l=en

select
#003 How to install a brushed metal skin on all platforms:
you can see right away if it works.




I bet these are stacks set to metal. Leopard changed the metal look
and it no longer works properly with Revolution. Just turn off metal
until RunRev work out the solution.

Cheers,
Sarah

Drat, I must have missed Kevin's post. I suspect the problems may  
still be somewhat related, so I'll be interested in what surfaces  
from your search. Thanks.

Hi Mark,

This is the problem that I presented to the list a couple of weeks  
ago. In my case, I'm using XP under VMWare's Fusion on an  
IntelMac. Some of my textfields appear, but some others do not.  
They, apparently, are present, since they are read when the card  
opens, and you can hear them being read; you just can't see them.  
I have yet to test the reading feature for all of the missing  
text. In my case, I'm pretty sure that I am not using the  
revFont.dll, unless Rev uses it on its own when creating the  
Windows standalone. Also, I have not checked it out with the 2.9  
beta yet. Nor have I had the opportunity to check it out on a real  
PC Box.


If I can share any additional info, please let me know.

I put all the files into the "webServer/Documents/fileName" folder, the

I didn't succeed to make it work thru the cgi folder.
Good luck using it, Hershel

Re: Re Graphs and text reports

2007-12-23 Thread Mark Smith
I don't think it does. While simple graphs, (and even some less  
simple ones) are not a huge stretch in Revolution, some of the  
ancillary things like rotated text and so on are difficult, if not  
impossible. (I'd be very happy to be wrong about that, if anyone  
knows better).


Best,

Mark

Hi

I have been out of the Revolution loop for some time, but may  
rejoin with

the latest bundle offer.
The one area I felt rev really lacked was easy page formatting for  
printing
and graph capability. Have any of these been improved since 2.6  
(or will

they in the upcoming 2.9).
Being able to print single and multipage formatted outputs is  
important in
most of what I do and in the past, I have not really found a good  
graph

plugin to get over Revs lack of graph ability

Any feedback on this would be greatly appreciated

Cheers
Steve

Graphics disappear

2007-12-23 Thread Meliton Cardona
On a new macBookPro intel core 2 duo, under system 10.5.1, my stacks  
show an erratic behaviour. Buttons, fields etc disappear and come back  
without apparent reason.


I am using studio rev 2.8.1

Any hints?

Re: RevFont not working on Mac Intel

2007-12-23 Thread Joe Lewis Wilkins

Hi Mark,

This is the problem that I presented to the list a couple of weeks  
ago. In my case, I'm using XP under VMWare's Fusion on an IntelMac.  
Some of my textfields appear, but some others do not. They,  
apparently, are present, since they are read when the card opens, and  
you can hear them being read; you just can't see them. I have yet to  
test the reading feature for all of the missing text. In my case, I'm  
pretty sure that I am not using the revFont.dll, unless Rev uses it  
on its own when creating the Windows standalone. Also, I have not  
checked it out with the 2.9 beta yet. Nor have I had the opportunity  
to check it out on a real PC Box.

The first time I use this external, all works fine. The unicode

After writing some text, I quit the standalone or Revolution and

to load, but I can't get any visible text. The unicodeText property  
has been set correctly, but the text is just not rendered. It looks  
there are only a few tabs in the field.


On my PC, all works fine. The problem only occurs with Win XP  
running on the Mac.


Has anyone else seen this or similar behaviour?
