basic question about "go to stack" and scripts in that stack

2008-08-31 Thread william humphrey
This is a simple question.
If you have two stacks (one is a substack of the other and both are side by
side on my monitor) and you click on one stack manually with the mouse then
the scripts in that stack all work perfectly but if you "go to that stack"
with a script from the other stack the scripts do not work  even though
visually it appears that the stack is active in front of you and selected.

I realize I can "send name_of_function to the other stack but I don't
understand why "go to that stack" and then "name_of_function" (which is in
the script of that stack) doesn't work.

Is there some further command after "go to stack", like "activate the stack
so it works"?

Please forgive this basic question which comes from my trying to use RunRev
like a GUI environment without understanding the underpinnings.

David,

I wonder if the following is of any help for you:
http://www.mail-archive.com/use-revolution@lists.runrev.com/msg91205.html

It refers to example stacks:

go stack URL "http://revolution.byu.edu/unicode/unicodeInRev.rev";
go stack URL "http://revolution.byu.edu/unicode/unicodeExamples.rev";

Re: How to set the printPaperOrientation

I don't think it works, then.  What I did was write the contents of  
the field
to a temp print file, then call a shell script which in turn calls a  
little
awk program which formats the temp print file into an output file,  
and pipes
the results to kprinter.  It works fine, though of course you don't  
get to
do styled text.  It is a bit ridiculous to have to go through these  
hoops.
I also raised a bug on it.  Some of my printing issues appeared to  
be Debian
related, but I reproduced this one on both Debian and on Mandriva  
2008.


Same bug under Ubuntu.



I think, pending 3.0, that the only thing you can do is write your  
field to

an external file and process it for printing from that.  I didn't try
revPrintText, interesting to hear that it seems to have the same  
issue.



What happened with my attempts was that regardless of settings, it  
would
always print in portrait and always at the same size - thus  
truncating the

content.


Have the same problem here and need to print styled text in landscape.
Hope the bug will be addressed before version 3 is released.

Thanks, best regards,

ÉrIC
