Re: Highlight instances of found text
Aloha and Namaste, Peter Thank you! this is very helpful... it's what I was looking for, but my string manipulation skills are not as strong as yours and I defaulted to the old "hack" which is to use find and then FoundChunk, which always *seems* to work well, but often introduces some unsolvable gremlin. e.g. my function passes all lines/Paragraphs containing the search string to a field for review, highlighting every instance of the found text. The user can then print this out after editing it. Using "Supreme Being" it found all the instances, but for some mysterious reason highlighted all instances except "Supreme Being; where the phrase was bounded by a quotation mark and a semi colon, the find function will not find that string a such if "find whole" is used... but your routine surely will... I will try yours instead. I offer the user both options "Partial Match" (any string in any location) or "Whole words" so I can use both of these routines Thanks! # example of the "Find...

Re: Moving objects with arrow keys
Looking this time at my demo Rev 3.5 for Windows, in the "Edit > Preferences > General" I see an "Arrow keys navigate through cards" checkbox. And, I created a stack, added a button, deselected then selected it, and clicking on my keyboard arrow keys nudged the button's position. Perhaps your keyboard has some kind of toggle for turning on/off its arrow keys? Also, you know Rev has arrow related commands?

(there is no height limit) As is, its a deal breaker for any serious app in the photography arena. I've been looking into the problem with images wider than 4091 pixels on OS X. A while ago, Devin Asay suggested that one could load the image, then split the imagedata before displaying it in sections. Mike Markkula wrote a nice stack to do just that, but asked for my help when it didn't work quite correctly, for no apparent reason. The problem is worse than we thought. A wide image imports without reporting errors, but the imagedata is messed up before you can get to it. Its very odd. If an image is 4091 wide, everything seems fine. If an image is wider than that, the imagedata is wrong starting with pixel #4048 (!). What a strange number! The scary part is that the messed up bytes came from somewhere wrong. We don't know where they came from. Its unlikely that they would be outside of Rev's app space (page fault) but it could be dangerous to _write_ to those locations by exporting the image by whatever means. I made an ugly little stack to view the raw pixels of an image. Its at: http://www.jhj.com/WideBug.zip with some test images that have consistent RGB values. Note that pixel 4047 is OK, 4048 is not. 4100 (last of first row) is not, and different. In each example, the last row appears to be correct. I haven't looked deeper, I've seen enough. It doesn't matter how you load the image - there is a button each for the three methods I know about - all give the same results. Beware!

One caveat about the word colorizing routine -- Rev is idiosyncratic in defining anything enclosed by quotes as a single word. (Why?? If you command-right-arrow to step through words of a text, Rev knows to treat quotation marks as just another character and will move from word to word the way any other text app does, so the engine knows what the usual definition of a word is. Bug report anyone?) To colorize all words including those within a quotation, you have to first replace the quote character by some other character in the field, then restore the quotes. (The obvious remaining utility functions, itemOffsets() and lineOffsets(), are left as an exercise for the reader, but are quite handy to have in a library.) HTH, -- Peter Peter M.

Free RevMedia 4
Will the Free RevMedia 4 have a "locked in" set of GUI component stacks as RevMedia 2.9 does? This would make it extremely difficult, if not impossible, to "graft on" modified revTools stacks for teaching purposes. ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution

Re: Rev 4 beta status
" 7 July" was not sent in a "hey you slack lot, stir your stumps" kind of way, but just a gentle sort of "keep us posted, Please" sort of way.

UDP not connecting on Mac OSX Leopard
I don't seem to be able to make the easy connections between Macs running OSX 10.5 using Alex Tweedly's companion stacks UDP Echo Client UDP Echo Server I have set the fire wall in OSX to 'allow all incoming connections', both computers have a static IP address, are connected to the internet using a switch (not a router) but UDP traffic between them does not test positive. This has not been a problem in the past using OSX 10.4 (Tiger) [1] compiled - UDP Echo Client running as an app on computer B UDP Echo Server in Rev 2.7.2 on computer A [2] compiled - UDP Echo Client running as an app on computer B UDP Echo Server in Rev 2.9.0 on computer A Can anyone shed some light on how to make this work?

Re: [weblet] How can a webLet communicate with the hosting html page?

Hope some of you guys find it useful! It's doing the server based roundtrip for the communication though - to get a responsive Web2.0 type app you need to use Javascript on the client side. We'll have to wait for revised version of the plugin for that - maybe with luck we'll even get "do script as javaScript" for standalones as well :) ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution

Unfortunately we had some last minute issues on one of the platforms that has eaten up a few days and so we're behind where we had aimed to be. We have a handle on the problem now but we're going to have to take the weekend to hammer on the fix a little more and do the build early next week. I'm sorry to keep you waiting, I know everyone is really looking forward to trying this. But I'd rather make sure we have something that passes our internal tests before we send it out. We're working flat out, we're close. I'll post an update on our status on Monday.
