Re: no defaultstack

2008-02-24 Thread Jim Ault
Hmmm, based on my last 4 years experience with Rev, this does not make
sense,  so I really hope you get to the bottom of strange behavior.  Let's
hope that it does not  require some work-around.

>From your description below, there is not enough info to help you.

It sounds as if the field is inside a group and thus not in the direct
message hierarchy, or some other interference, such as a front script.

Try adding the same handler to several script containers to see if the
message path is really working like you think... such as


card script, each stack script, fld script, btn script
on mouseDoubleUp
   global gMessageTrail
   put the long id of me & cr after gMessageTrail
   pass mouseDoubleUp
end mouseDoubleUp

The sequence of handlers will be stored in the variable gMessageTrail, which
will appear in the Variable Watcher stack even if you are not debugging a
script.  Or you can use the message box to :
put gMessageTrail

(note:  before doing the mouseup test, use the message box to:)
put empty into gMessageTrail

I do hope you find the answer and let us know.

no defaultstack

2008-02-24 Thread rand valentine
 I'm using Rev 2.8.1 Studio, MacBook Pro, 4gb memory, Leopard, and now
Revolution does not recognize the card or stack that I'm in when I execute a
script. So every field reference must be specified for the card it's on and
the stack it's in, i.e., one can't just designate:

fld "whichField"

 rather it must be

fld "whichField" of cd "whichCard" of stack "whichStack"

 I've been playing with setting the defaultstack to the toplevel stack, but
that doesn't seem to help.

 Any way to fix this? Thanks.

Hi Rand,

You are dealing with two problems that have nothing to do with each  
other. A problem in your script and a problem in the debugger. I hope  
that the problem in the debugger will be fixed when 2.9 is released.


Maybe we can find the problem in your script if you post the script  
here.

Re: Rev Blog

2008-02-24 Thread Mick Collins
Hi, Sarah, great idea.  I have only one suggestion, based on my  
confusion when I first read it.


Early in the description of Rev you say:
 Revolution Enterprise is the same as Studio but with access to pre- 
release versions as well as the ability to develop on multiple  
platforms (a Studio license allows you to develop on a single platform).


I would add something like, in the parentheses,  ... single platform,  
although you can develop FOR multiple platforms)


We don't want to turn anyone away who can't afford Enterprise to  
start, doesn't need to be able to develop on multiple platforms, but  
does want to DEPLOY on multiple platforms.  I realize you say that  
later, but ...


All success!

OT Recommendations on Midi Keyboard 32-37 key- semi-weighted

2008-02-24 Thread Sivakatirswami

We're in the market for a new small USB midi-keyboard.

this will be used to "document" simple song tunes... I only need 32-37 
keys to get to G below Middle C and E above...that's enough for the 
average vocal range.


I'm interested in anyone's recommendations on brand... not necessarily 
features: something solid, well built, I look for "trouble free, doesn't 
break" first... semi-weighted keys preferred.


e.g. the

Edirol PCR-300 32-Key USB/MIDI Keyboard Controller

Korg MicroKontrol 37-Key USB Controller Keyboard 



look good but  are way over kill for my needs as we don't really intend 
to make music with this thing... I just want to set Garage band to  
"Bamboo flute" and tap in some simple tunes to nail down  melodic lines.


I would like to get in at around $150.00 if there's anything in that 
price range that is decently built. I don't need a wide range of 
controllers.


On the other hand if < $200.00 only buys trouble, we don't want to go there.

Email me off list if you have any recommendations for an inexpensive but 
still solid midi input key board that will work on a Mac with Garage Band...



Thanks!

Sivakatirswami

symptoms you describe.


Whether that's happening here I can't say; I don't recall the specifics.

Anyone here know more about the ask/answer context issue, and whether 
that may be the culprit here?

Re: [ANN] Multi-Browser pre-alpha test release

2008-02-24 Thread Thomas McGrath III
I have saved a new version in RR 2.8.1 to see if it will open in RR on  
Win XP:


http://www.lazyriversoftware.com/multibrowser.html

Or you can try to open this from the message box within RR.

go URL "http://www.lazyriversoftware.com/MultiBrowser.rev";

I hope this works.

Hi Thomas,

Here, in a Windows XP box, the web browsers works great.
Tested with StackRunner 1.7, but does not work inside RR 2.8.1.

Notice that web browser window have a fixed size, so it´s difficult to
use in smaller screen sizes like 1024x768.

Weird Behavior

2008-02-24 Thread rand valentine
 I'm using Studio version 2.8.1 on an intel Mac running Leopard (10.5.2).
Also running Galaxy and GL2. I'm getting weird behavior that I don't
understand. An object is recognized for some things but not others. For
example, in the following script, which simply clears a field:

ON mouseUp
IF fld "notes_note" is not empty THEN
answer "Really clear?" with "Cancel" OR "Yes"
IF it is "Yes" THEN
put empty into fld "notes_note" -- "notes_note"
END IF
ELSE
answer "The note field is already empty."
END IF
END mouseUp

 In running the script, field "notes_note" is recognized in the IF
statement, but I get an error message "Chunk: no such object" when I run the
script, at the line that says "put empty into fld "notes_note". Anyone know
what's up? It seems to happen when I put a field into a group, more than at
other times.

Re: [ANN] Multi-Browser pre-alpha test release

2008-02-24 Thread Thomas McGrath III

Thanks Alejandro,

The Win XP issue might be because I was using RR 2.9 (beta). I am  
having problems with 2.9 anyway so I think I will open this stack in  
2.8.1 and see if it has the same problems and then upload a new stack.


Also, I am working now on the resizing of the windows since I made  
them so large here on my 23" display. (grin)
The contents of the browser windows when resizing seem to create  
problems but I am digging deep to see about fixes.


Thanks for the alpha look. I will notify on update.


Thanks again,

Tom

Re: OT: New threat to our way of life: giant pythons

2008-02-24 Thread viktoras didziulis

Hi Mark,

invasive alien species are an increasing problem globally. Species that 
were introduced deliberately or accidentally into new areas now have 
more chances to adopt and survive also because of the global climate 
change. Not all species are as bad, some are endangered, but some are 
nasty indeed causing damage to natural ecosystems, human health or 
economies. For example there are around 10 000 species like this in 
Europe that counts to 45 000 distinct introduction events. If you are 
interested in this topic you can visit www.europe-aliens.org and take a 
look at the poster presented in the conference  "Biological invasions in 
Europe and the DAISIE initiative - current threats and future 
perspectives" at

http://ekoinf.net/daisie/poster_easd_overview.ppt, ~3 Mb.

Actually this is not a big OT, because Revolution was used extensively 
and intensively to create the European Alien Species Database and data 
exploration tools to be released for public access in 2009 (database is 
still being polished, besides scientists wanted to make all their 
relevant publications before the database content is completely 
exposed). I will be taking that poster to at least 3 other conferences, 
so Revolution will get its exposure there too :-).


Some facts on the best known aliens... Freshwater bivalve mollusk 
Dreisenna polymorpha caused huge losses in the USA by clogging water 
intake/release pipes and other submerged structures in Great Lakes. A 
tiny crustacean Cercopagis pengoi upon its arrival to the Baltic sea 
caused what was called "nets plaque" nearly destroying marine coastal 
fishery business in a few European countries at the turn of XX / XXI 
centuries. Xilophagous mollusk Teredo navalis destroyed nearly all 
wooden constructions in San Francisco bay in the beginning of XX century 
causing loses as high as 200 000 000 dollars in just one year. And very 
recently documented new invader Mnemiopsis leyidyi is a major threat to 
fish resources in the Baltic sea, because it preys upon juvenile fish 
and has no natural enemies. This really beautiful creature already 
caused collapse of fisheries when it invaded the Black sea some time ago.

Re: Rev blog

2008-02-24 Thread Joe Lewis Wilkins

Hi Sarah,

I think one important clarification should be added to the description  
of the 3 versions of Revolution on your Rev Blog, being: that the  
Media version does NOT allow the user to convert HyperCard stacks to  
Revolution stacks.


Thanks,

Joe Wilkins
