 with how the engine works, as there really is no 'group edit mode'

This is one oddity that's all Raney:  that's an engine behavior.

My rule is to jump into group edit mode, do quickly what I need, then
jump back out ASAP.

Perhaps this is a bug, but it's going to be a very hard one to properly fix.

Re: Anyone using GLX2???

[Kay C Lan]

First off, I haven't seen any mention of which version of GLX2 you  are
running. I experienced similar problems as you described with an earlier
version of GLX2, but as soon as I updated they were all solved. I now go
beyond the release and use the latest Beta version.

Depending on how old your GLX2 is, I seem to remember some had problems with
their inbuilt update function, so a bit of a catch22. Sorry I can't tell you
exactly which release and beta versions are current as I'm on a hotel
business centre computer at the moment so don't have Rev+GLX2 in front of
me.

There is in RunRev. With the problems you describe, after updating to the
latest I suggest you turn GLX2 off. In the Rev IDE I'm sure there is a
command to "Clear All Breakpoints". Sorry I don't have Rev in front of me to
tell you exactly where it is, but I'm sure it's there.

Once you're back to a clean sheet, start GLX2 and see if your experience
isn't a little better :-)

it was possible to open a script in both the Rev IDE and GLX2. This is a big

impossible in the latest version of GLX2, or my work flow is such that it
never happens. All I remember is this created lots of headaches so I make
sure a script is never opened in both.

2.9 or 2.8.1 – Same problem

[Tom Johnson]

All,
I'm having a pretty server problem when printing. I'm not sure if it's Vista
or my printer, computer, OS combination causing the problem but it nasty. I
have a card with a screen captured image on it and a series of fields and
check boxes that make up a form. The image is a black and white gif that is
only about 65k. I have 33 different form configurations in this app. When I
first started to set up the printing routine for the app. it crashed Rev
every time. So I started removing one field at a time and I got to a point
where it would print. If I add one more field I get a blank page off the
printer. This was with 2.8.1. So I tried it in 2.9, same results. Here's
another thing, when I try to print the script of the app from the script
editor, it kills Rev. When I try to print using one of the exercise/examples
in the "Getting Started Working with Scripts" it crashes Rev. Now here's the
kicker. When I run the exact same print routine I have below on XP, no
problem, it prints just fine.

Thanks
Tom

Here's the configuration I'm running:
Vista Home Premium
Toshiba - Satelite A215
AMD Turion 64 x2 Mobile Technology TL-56 1.80 GHz
1 Gb of RAM
250 Gb HD
Printer - Lexmark, X9350 wit the latest drivers

Here's the print script:
on mouseUp -- script of print button on this card
set the printscale to .68
set the printmargins to 18,18,18,18
set the printpapersize to 612,792 -- 8.5x11 inches, US Letter size
set the width of this stack to 840
set the height of this stack to 1083
hide me -- hide the print button
open printing
print this card
close printing
set the height of this stack to 700
set the width of this stack to 882
show me
end mouseUp

My cursor show as all black

[Stgoldberg]

Regarding created cursors showing up as black, I realize that you are not 
using Photoshop, but perhaps something in the following directions for creating 
cursors in Photoshop make be useful in the program you are using:
1.   Open Photoshop. Name the image, Mode being RGB color, Background 
Transparent, and width and height 16 pixels.
2.   Change Image/Mode to Indexed Color, using the defaults for indexed color 
(Palette: Exact; Forced: Web; Transparency checked; Matte: none)
3. With image maximally magnified, used the pencil tool to insert black or 
white pixels.   Enclosed areas can be filled with white or black if desired and 
pixels can be erased if desired.
4.   Save as PNG.   
5.   Bring the PNG image into Revolution and note it's ID number (it may be 
1003 for instance).
6.   In the script to call the cursor write:
on mouseUp
set lockcursor to true
set the cursor to 1003 -- if that's the ID number
end mouseUp

All cursors should show up fine on both Mac and Windows. (I used Mac OS X 
with Revolution 2.7 in development)

It is interesting that sometimes there can be two identical pictures in 
Photoshop, one of which will show up cursors correctly and the other will show 
up 
only a white square or a black filled image, even though all the parameters in 
Photoshop seem to be the same!!   I don't know why this should be the case but 
it implies that there is something different about the two images even if not 
apparent.   This can be easily corrected either by creating a new Photoshop 
16x16 document, carefully duplicating the pixels of the defective image, or 
more simply, just pasting the defective image into the new Photoshop document.  
 
The cursors should then appear fine.

If anyone would like a set of cursors created in this way, just let me know 
and I'll email them at no charge.

Hi Stephen,

The selectedLoc is probably what you need. Use it in combination with  
the lineheight and the formattedWidth or the width of the field to get  
the rect of the selectedLine.

The rect of the selectedLine

I'm sure there's a way to do this, but it escapes me at the moment.

How do I get a rect that represents the selected line in a scrolling

Re: my cursor shows as all black

[J. Landman Gay]

Cool, so the old trick still does work, with the caveat of editing 
outside the cursor bounds. I'll make a note of that.


Only one more thing: if you are planning to go cross platform with this 
app, your cursor can't be 32 pixels square. Linux and Mac support only 
16 pixel square cursors.


Other than that, good going. :)

Hi Jacqueline,
I just attained a level of satisfaction using my own image cursors in
RunRev.

Here's what I've done:
1) Since I don't have PhotoShop, I use Axialis' IconWorkshop to create the
32x32 image and save it as a GIF file, two colors: black and white only, no
transparency.
2) In RunRev, I import the GIF file.
3) Next I click on the image and use the Magnify option to apply
transparency: here's how to do that...
In the magnified thumbnail, use the eraser to remove the color (white)
"around" or "outside" the image that will appear as the cursor. Make sure
you set the eraser size to the smallest size. For those areas that you can't
remove with the eraser, use the right button (on windows) and click on those
areas. Doing all this applies a transparency to the image, except the part
that will appear as the cursor.
**IMPORTANT - make one pixel "outside" the cursor area to be white or black.
If you don't do this, and when using the cursor in your application, the
colors will be reversed.
ie: where you defined white it will be black, and where you defined black it
will be white.

4) Close the magnified box and then choose a non-paint tool to stop editing.

Check the Color properties for the image: this is the way they should be
 First Color = white
 Second Color = black
 Third Color = white

hope that can help someone,
Mark Stuart

Sorry, no. It's Mac OS X only. I'm not familiar enough with Windows

a Mac) but maybe someone here does. There has got to be something 
equivalent, I'd think.


There is one more old trick that people used to use, but I haven't 
mentioned it because several people have said it no longer works. But I 
guess it is worth a try. Import your image (at the correct size) as a 
GIF image. Using the pencil tool, edit a pixel or two. The editing is 
what matters; you don't have to keep the changes. For example, you can 
toggle one pixel from black to white, and then toggle it back to black 
again. Then choose a non-paint tool to stop editing.


This used to force the image to the correct palette for use as a cursor, 
provided your image was black and white to begin with. You might want to 
see if that works.

Thanks. "docs", who would have thought! After sending my message I

If I could just ask a more basic related question, how do you rotate

horizontally or vertically, but any of the rotate menu items don't  
achieve anything.

often sit there with a blank stare when I can not navigate through a  
script just by clicking the handlername...
Sure, GLX has a glitch or two, but so does the original editor. The  
productivity boost GLX offers just outweights everything that comes  
short.

Re: Rotate and scale images

[Colin Holgate]

If I could just ask a more basic related question, how do you rotate 
an image at all? If I've made a new image control, and set its source 
to a JPEG file, I can then use the menu items to flip it horizontally 
or vertically, but any of the rotate menu items don't achieve 
anything.

NEWS FLASH -iPhone SDK event -- iTunes APP store

[Stephen Barncard]

During the iPhone SDK event today, Apple announced that they would 
be releasing to developers the same APIs and Tools that they use to 
create iPhone apps.


Based on existing Mac OS X technologies, the SDK provides a robust 
package of tools for developers to use to develop iPhone native 
applications. The SDK is broken down into the following sets:


http://www.macrumors.com/2008/03/06/apple-releases-iphone-sdk-demos-spore-instant-messaging/


And check this out - the iTunes App store?? AWESOME FOR DEVELOPERS

Native iPhone apps will be distributed through the iTunes App Store, 
with wireless downloads. Developers pick the price, and get 70% of 
revenue. The 70% will be paid out to developers monthly, and there 
are no other recurring fees. The iTunes App Store will handle over 
the air updates to your applications. Developers of free 
applications will not be charged for Apple to deliver their 
applications through iTunes.

This is indeed a complex bunch of issues:

- When you have resized an image and set the angle of that image, it 
will snap back to its original size.


- When you resize an image and set the lockloc to true, then when 
setting new angles the image will retain its new size when the angle 
value mod 90 is 0 (at angles 0, 90, 180, 270), otherwise it will snap 
back to its previous size.


- To really rotate (i.e. set the angle) the image while keeping its new 
size, you will have to set the imagedata of that image to its imagedata 
("set the imagedata of img x to the imagedata of img x").


- And the other way round: If you have set an image to a new angle, it 
is impossible to resize such an image, whether by dragging the handles 
of the image or by script (or by setting new values for width and height 
in the properties dialog).


- But and only then, you can resize an image after you have set a new 
angle when you set the imagedata of that image to its own imagedata, 
i.e. when you have created a *new* image by setting its imagedata.


The above statements hold for all Rev version from 2.6.1 to 2.9.0-dp-5.

Wilhelm Sanke

Hi again Jacqueline,
I looked at the browse.gif image on the revCursors stack in RunRev.
It shows on the Colors & Patterns properties that the First Color is black,

I tried applying the same colors on my gif image after importing it into
RunRev, but didn't help.

In IconWorkshop, before exporting an image to gif, there are 3-4 options to
set.
I'll continue playing with those settings, because I just bought this
software online.
Got to be able to pay for it some how.
Is GC available for WinXP?


Sorry, no. It's Mac OS X only. I'm not familiar enough with Windows 
tools to know of a replacement (I do all my Windows icons and cursors on 
a Mac) but maybe someone here does. There has got to be something 
equivalent, I'd think.


There is one more old trick that people used to use, but I haven't 
mentioned it because several people have said it no longer works. But I 
guess it is worth a try. Import your image (at the correct size) as a 
GIF image. Using the pencil tool, edit a pixel or two. The editing is 
what matters; you don't have to keep the changes. For example, you can 
toggle one pixel from black to white, and then toggle it back to black 
again. Then choose a non-paint tool to stop editing.


This used to force the image to the correct palette for use as a cursor, 
provided your image was black and white to begin with. You might want to 
see if that works.

Len,

you're right but if you set swapinness = 0 in the configs, even though
you have swap space, you won't use it.

SDHC has a better erase/write cycle than it's sd cousins. Still, I've
used it only for two days... it should be working

Re: Rotate and scale images

[Phil Davis]

Hi Henk,

I haven't tried this, but... does the image misbehave when rotating even 
when the lockLoc of the image is set to true? Seems like that would stop 
it from reverting to its 'formatted' size.


Just a thought -

used?


Dave, we have tried both ways...red dots or not. We opted for using  
the command "breakpoint" and it is very reliable. That said, there's a  
lot i'd like to do with the debugger...all in good time. I'm more  
convinced that a standalone app as debugger would be very  
helpful...one you could use to debug stacks running in the Rev IDE or  
your own standalone app. This is very possible and is our hope going  
forward. This would not give you the same experience as the Rev IDE  
script editor/debugger as one experience, however.


There are several areas in which the operation of the IDE and the UI  
come into conflict with a debugger. We look to the standalone debugger  
as a good answer to some of those problems. in the mean time, we do  
have script snapshot which Trevor invented for us and it is great at  
tracking variable values in "snapshots" and letting you sift through  
them after a script has run. Script snapshots get set just like debug  
breakpoints in GLX2. You only need to switch from Debug Mode to Script  
Snapshot mode via the GLX2 Script menu (from GLX2 menubar).


We don't offer the exact same experience as the Rev IDE script editor  
and debugger. That means some learning curve, but much opportunity to  
develop faster, better, cheaper. Tabs make a big difference in what  
makes sense and what doesn't in surprising ways. Using GLX2 is usually  
done with a small leap of faith and a little advice here and there  
from users on the GLX2 support site. I'll get our support team (my  
son, Joe) to make sure you get signed up, as we have gotten no email  
requests from you to date.





If there are two ways of doing it then there should also be some way  
to clear all the RunRev breakpoints from the user stacks. The way it  
is now, I have a number RunRev breakpoints set that DO NOT cause the  
RunRev debugger to stop (and AFAICT are not even visible as  
breakpoints in the Standard Editor), but do cause GLX2 to stop. When  
it does stop the statement in question is not displayed in bold, and  
editing the file before running does not show the statement in bold.  
If I click on the line then it changes to bold (even tho it's  
stopped on a breakpoint). If I hit it again, it goes back to normal  
and if I run it doesn't stop next time that statement is run.  
However, the next time the stack is opened, the same thing happens.


I found the documentation on the site of minimal help. Is there a  
PDF with things laid out in a more ordered fashion and where I can  
search and easily jump around. The web site is more an advertising  
opportunity than what I'd call "Documentation".


In the Help menu on GLX2 there are some lessons, too. The stuff on the  
main GLX2 web site IS promotional, but that's easily filtered, i would  
think. Hard to keep enthusiasm out of one's voice sometimes. hehehe.



One other very annoying and confusing thing is the way in which the  
Script Editor is opened when RunRev is launched. While its great to  
not to have to go to the bother of opening the Scripts of all the  
objects you were working on, it is very confusing to have the Menu  
switched at start up. I think it would be better to open the Script  
window but not to select as the front window, therefore allowing the  
expected menubar to be shown.


I think the release version does this, but the latest beta does not.  
We do have a beta track of updates for those wanting to try the latest  
and greatest at all times. You can always go back to the release  
version, btw.



Except for the breakpoint the thing, the editor is very good though  
and a great improvement over the standard version. I can't help  
thinking newbies that have used the standard RunRev for a little  
while would become confused very quickly though, especially without  
a document describing exactly what GLX2 changes and how this affect  
the rest of the system.


So far we have opted to putting most of our resources into continued  
development at some expense to mammoth documentation. I hope you'll  
bear with us and give a new approach and environment a chance. We  
appreciate your business and continued use of the product, of course.

We use the command "breakpoint" in the code to indicate a

problems on large scripts in the Rev script editor.

Once in the GLX2 debugger, you can easily set additional  
breakpoints by clicking on any link whereupon it will become bold  
and stop the debugger when encountered.


There is significant documentation on our support site and on our

have had nothing but problems on the debugging side and with no  
decent documentation I can find and no support it's hard to know  
how it is *supposed* to work rather than what I am seeing.


1.  I can find no way to insert or remove a breakpoint without  
aborting the current debugging session. The "Breakpoint" menu item  
just inserts a "breakpoint" statement into the source code. It  
says clicking on it will disable/enable it, but this doesn't seem  
to have any effect, it always breaks regardless of if it's  
highlighted or not. The only way I can find to remove the  
breakpoint is to edit the source code and physically delete the  
"breakpoint" statement, which kill the current session.


2. Old breakpoints added with the standard RunRev IDE Script  
Editor (the red dot at the left of the statement) triggers the  
GLX2 Debugger and I can find no way to get rid of them. The  
amusing thing here is that the standard debugger ignores them, so  
you can't tell where they are until GLX2 finds them and GLX2 can't  
remove them!


3. The editor or debugger seems to lose track of which is the  
latest version of the Script and so the code that is run is not  
the same as the code displayed in the Source Window.


I've sent two emails a week apart asking to be registered for

These issues are making it unusable and I'm about to uninstall it,  
which is a real shame since the editor is miles better than the

1.  Is there any documentation for GLX2, if so could you point me to it?

2.  How do I set a breakpoint? The only way I can see is to press

While I haven't seen documentation that completely satisfies 100%

OT: SD (SDHC) died, anybody knows how to recover ext3 partitions?

[Andre Garzia]

Hello Friends,

This is a way OT call but I believe that people here are a wonderful
source of information and that maybe somebody might have traveled this
road before so it's not a useless try.

I have an Asus EEE PC (701). Its a wonderful machine. I spent lots of
days customizing it for my daily developments. I've used a Transcend
SD (SDHC) card with 16gb worth of storage and installed Ubuntu on that
card. It took me days to get everything working but in the end I had a
machine that I liked very much.

Well, yesterday I did a dirty shutdown during a lockup. After that,
all bugs broke loose, the card stopped booting.

The card had two partitions, one swap and one ext3.

Now, windows will detect the card but will show it as zero bytes card
and will not allow me to do anything with it.

Mac OS X will ignore it.

Linux Xandros will detect and mount it saying it is zero bytes and
will not detect anything.

Linux Ubuntu Live CD using GParted will detect the card and say it is
7gb card!? (it was 16gb and it had way less than 9gb occupied.)

I've given up trying to recover the card, I don't care anymore, I just
want to know if someone knows a software for any operating system
(preference: linux) that will force the format the card back to an

I just don't want to loose the card, I had it for a week and it costed 150 USD.

Have you considered contacting the vendor?

While I haven't seen documentation that completely satisfies 100%  
of customers for any product, Jerry Daniels has a reputation for  
providing exemplary support for his tools.

Jerry posts here all the time, so finding his email was a snap:

From my first message:

I've sent two emails a week apart asking to be registered for  
support but no reply.



Had no response so far.

All the Best

Re: Anyone using GLX2???

[Jerry Daniels]

Dave,

We use the command "breakpoint" in the code to indicate a breakpoint  
in GLX2. This has solved many other problems in the process...like  
constantly migrating red dots and performance problems on large  
scripts in the Rev script editor.


Once in the GLX2 debugger, you can easily set additional breakpoints  
by clicking on any link whereupon it will become bold and stop the  
debugger when encountered.


There is significant documentation on our support site and on our web  
site indicated below. There is a support site, but you have to sign up  
for it. We didn't get any request for support sign-up from you, but I  
will check into this and make sure you're on board.


Sorry for your frustrations, but we can get it all sorted out for you.

Best,

Jerry Daniels

decent documentation I can find and no support it's hard to know how  
it is *supposed* to work rather than what I am seeing.


1.  I can find no way to insert or remove a breakpoint without  
aborting the current debugging session. The "Breakpoint" menu item  
just inserts a "breakpoint" statement into the source code. It says  
clicking on it will disable/enable it, but this doesn't seem to have  
any effect, it always breaks regardless of if it's highlighted or  
not. The only way I can find to remove the breakpoint is to edit the  
source code and physically delete the "breakpoint" statement, which  
kill the current session.


2. Old breakpoints added with the standard RunRev IDE Script Editor  
(the red dot at the left of the statement) triggers the GLX2  
Debugger and I can find no way to get rid of them. The amusing thing  
here is that the standard debugger ignores them, so you can't tell  
where they are until GLX2 finds them and GLX2 can't remove them!


3. The editor or debugger seems to lose track of which is the latest  
version of the Script and so the code that is run is not the same as  
the code displayed in the Source Window.


I've sent two emails a week apart asking to be registered for  
support but no reply.


These issues are making it unusable and I'm about to uninstall it,  
which is a real shame since the editor is miles better than the  
standard IDE version.


All the Best
Dave

Rotate and scale images

[Henk van der Velden]

Good day all,

I'm having a hard time rotating and scaling images.
When scaling an image and then rotating it (set the angle), the scale  
is 'lost'. Whenever the angle is changed, the image size is reset to  
the formattedheight / width.


How can I handle this?
Do I have to recalculate the minimal circumscribing rectangle every  
time?


And what in case the image is rotated already and then I want to  
scale it? When using the normal horizontal / vertical scaling, the  
image gets skewed. Do I need to script the whole mathematics of this?


Kind regards,

Henk
