Re: anyone know how to fix that silly stack file opening bug on mac os x and rev 4.0

[Jan Schenkel]

Is this Snow Leopard by any chance?
I got bitten by this too in Quartam Reports Layout builder - there is a change 
in the AppleEvent data that comes with an 'odoc' event. So if you have an 
'editor' application and need to fix your AppleEvent handler, I just published 
a blog entry describing my workaround for this:

Tareq,

I am about to go downstairs and teach little children English.
[I run a private language mini-school in Bulgaria although
I come from Scotland.]

BUT; to replace a script you can do something like this:

set the script of btn "XYZ" to fld "ABC"

and whatever is contained in field "ABC" will become the script
of button "XYZ".

I will have a think about the rest and get back to you at lunchtime.

Yes, there is something else. The development enviroment freeze and

Yes, this corrupted stack message is only for stack files that are
double-clicked AFTER Rev has started and only on Snow Leopard.
A bit alarming the first time you see it!

Does that work if Rev is already running Jacque? Because it doesn't for me.
So I wrote a plugin that opens any stack files to be dropped on it.

Password field

[Mark Schonewille]

Hi,

I needed a better password field for a project of mine. You can  
download a stack with my new password field at .


This version:
- multiple password fields on a card possible
- only one object per password field (no more hidden fields necessary)
- all ASCII symbols above 31 are allowed
- easy way to preset a (e.g. earlier saved) password

Re: Data Grid Documentation

[Josh Mellicker]

Trevor,

It's taken me this long to actually start experimenting with the  
DataGrid and just wanted to post in an open letter here how amazing it  
is. And kudos to Runrev for their integration work as well.


Also a lesson for any software developer is your approach to  
documentation - rather than the traditional developer originated  
"here's what we want to tell you" you've taken frequently asked  
questions from users, created ScreenStep tutorials, and exported those  
to a manual, reversing the paradigm to "here's what you wanted to  
know", thinking, well, if no one asks about a certain process or  
feature, then it's either easy or no one cares, and if people keep  
asking about something, it needs more detail and elucidation. User  
Driven Documentation Ensures Relevance. UDDERly brilliant.


Looking into the thought process leading to the creation of the  
DataGrid object, and being aware of your SQL Yoga product, it's pretty  
obvious that part of your vision has to do with a form-based DataGrid  
linking to a multiuser database, in which (in the simplest case) each  
row in the Grid represents a row in a DB table. Of course, with  
relational DBs, the correspondence of form elements to tables gets  
more complex, with some elements referring to linked tables, possible  
sets of data for menus, etc.


Forgive me if this has already been covered, I don't read the list  
much and have not been Revtalking in a couple years so I am a bit out  
of touch. The below is just a train of thought about a few random  
basic needs of a framework connecting a form-based DataGrid that  
provides CRUD functionality with a multiuser DB:


It seems to me that some of the most common elements needed would be:

single line text field
multiple line text field
option menu
date popup
time popup

Each of those objects, it seems, would need 4 custom properties to  
know where that data comes from and is to be stored:


tableName
columnName
rowID
tableIDcolumnName

The single line and multiple line text fields are simple, and you've  
provided the specific example of updating an external data source with  
CloseFieldEditor.


An option menu could be used in two major ways:
a. the menu options are a fixed set (small, medium, large)
b. the menu options come from all possible values of a certain row in  
a table


The option menu probably needs an "edit list..." option allowing the  
user, right in context, to add, edit or delete options.


The date & time popups are simple, just need the ability to translate  
from SQL date and time storage and a cool popup calendar.


On another topic, with a locally data store, data synchronization  
becomes an issue. Every row in every table would need a dateTimeStamp  
so that on a periodic basis (1m, 5m, 10m), the local app could do a  
query of the remote DB to update the local store with the rows changed  
since the last refresh. Any data, before storing remotely, would have  
to compare the remote timeStamp to see if someone else changed the  
data to avoid overwriting someone else's newly stored data.


The purpose of this message (finally! :-) is just to say, if any of  
these thoughts spark even just a sentence or two in response, it could  
be quite valuable, as I am embarking on a project doing exactly this-  
building a framework connecting a form-based DataGrid to a multiuser DB.


Also, in a final thought, if you wanted to do an iChat or Skype screen  
share in which we could build a simple DataGrid project, I'd be happy  
to pay a consulting fee, plus I could record video of it and post for  
the benefit of everyone's greater enlightenment on the amazing DataGrid.

Okay, if that's a little over the top, I hope at least developers  
that use this commercially will consider it de rigeur to donate to

Re: Exact number of a radio button in a group

[Terry Judd]

What about using custom properties? You would set a property (e.g. CID) for
each of the four buttons in a group to A, B, C or D and then use a script in
the group something like this...

on mouseUp
  if the cID of the target = "B" then
doStuff
  end if
end mouseUp

...to react when the user clicked the correct answer.

This way you could simply copy and paste your group to create a new set of
options, change the labels of the buttons to whatever you wanted and only
have a single script to deal with for each group.

Alternatively, you could use a single handler in all groups to catch the
group name and the button property and pass these to a stack handler that
deals with all you groups...

on mouseUp
doStuff (the short name of the owner of the target),(the cID of the
target)
end mouseUp

And then in the stack script...

on doStuff grpName,btnID
  switch grpName
case "someGrp"
  if btnID = "B" then...
  break
case "someOtherGrp"
 if btnID = "D" then...
 break
  end switch
end doStuff

Or you could use a behaviour.

HTH,

Terry...

Try this:

 put "a" into fld "fOUTPUT"

Re: anyone know how to fix that silly stack file opening bug on mac os x and rev 4.0

[stephen barncard]

I never try to open a rev document in the IDE by double clicking; I keep too
many old versions of Rev on my machine and the wrong one usually gets loaded
if I do that  (in spite of the settings)..

 I either open tRev first (which launches the correct Rev version) and
navigate to the stack or drop it on to the Doc icon.
So I haven' t noticed the bug in 4. dp04 !

Disclamer; I use 'Defaultfolder' which aids greatly in navigating among many
directories.

I'll bet this is fixed in the November launch.

Andre,

I made a stack launcher, which you can find at the bottom of this

You might also try to find the location of the appleevent handler or  
maybe you can add an appleevent handler to a backscript.

How can I say REV to show another language in the keyboard viewer

[Reinhold Venzl-Schubert]

Hi!

I want to type polish text in a field. I switch the keyboard viewer  
(Mac OS 10.6) to Polish and start writing. Every think works well.
But when I change to another field on my card the keyboard viewer  
switches back to german.


I think I need a script like this:

on focusIn
do field "KBVPo" as "applescript"
end focusIn

The content of field "KBVPo is:

changeInputLanguage("Polnisch Pro")

 on changeInputLanguage(L)
	tell application "System Events" to tell process  
"SystemUIServer"
		tell (1st menu bar item of menu bar 1 whose value of  
attribute "AXDescription" is "text input")

return {its value, click, click menu 1's menu 
item L}
end tell
end tell
 end changeInputLanguage

But it do not works as expected. The same AppleScript works very well  
in the AppleScript Editor.


What is the mistake?
What do I have to change?

Thanks
Reinhold

Goofy Tip #57

[Richmond Mathewson]

Why '57'?  Well here's a clue:

http://www.geocities.com/stl_owen/heinz.html

Anyway . . .

Suppose you see somebody else's stack which features
a really groovy backgroundColor but is not one with
an obvious name such as "blue". Then you can just do
this:

on mouseUp
  set the backgroundColor of fld "fXXX" to the backgroundColor of card 
"cZZZ"

end mouseUp

and then save your field on a stack of your own for future
reference.

-

Not quite as 'goofy' as one might think as I have been worrying
for a while about how to temporarily change the backgroundColor
of a field while I export a screenshot.

In the latest Beta of my Sanskrit Typewriter I have set the text entry
field's backgroundColor to a sort of mushroomy grey to save
end-user's eyes; but also want an option to export screenshots of the
text field with a white background:

on mouseUp
  set the backgroundColor of fld "fTextENTRY" to white
  export snapshot from fld "fTextENTRY" to file "TextEXPORT.png" as PNG
  set the backgroundColor of fld "fTextENTRY" to the backgroundColor of 
fld "fMyColour"

end mouseUp

Behaviors

[Beat Cornaz]

I started to use Behaviors today and ran into two things :

1. I have a behavior assigned to a couple of buttons and some label  
fields.


The script of the behavior button is :

on mouseEnter
   set the uVraagteken of stack "Timer-general_Lib" to true
end mouseEnter

on mouseLeave
   set the uVraagteken of stack "Timer-general_Lib" to false
end mouseLeave

Now all of a sudden this 'behavior' is all over the place. This  
'behavior' is also excecuted when I mouseEnter a graphic or a button  
which has the behavior removed. Even with a freshly created button.  
And it is the script in the behavior button, because if I comment it  
out, nothing happens. What is the matter here? For a while it worked ok.


2.  A couple of btns have a behavior (DoA) assigned for mouseUp. Now  
one of the buttons has an additional task to perform on mouseUp  
(DoB). 'DoA' needs to be done before 'DoB'.


This works, but is the wrong order :

on mouseUp
  Do B
  pass mouseUp  -- to activate the behavior
end mouseUp

I can't do it with 'send in Time' because the behavior (DoA) will  
exit to top in certain conditions.


I have come up with the inelegant solution : (especially if mouseDown  
has already a script). Any better ideas?


on mouseDown
   mouseUp   -- activates the behavior
   DoB
end mouseDown

on DoB
 -- do what is needed
end DoB

Any better ideas?
best,

Beat

Re: RevMedia Portable

[Mark Schonewille]

Alejandro,

You might try the U3 version, although it seems that this was  
unsupported the day it was released. Unfortuntely, RunRev never made a  
statement about this, so I don't know whether it makes sense to buy a  
U3 license.

Re: RevMedia Portable

Alejandro, what is the problem exactly?  To try to find out, I copied my
Media folder to a usb stick, and ran it just now.  Seemed to run just fine. 
The Media folder was just the result of downloading and, don't recall
exactly, but think it needed to be unpacked and have the registration code
typed in.  But it seems to run fine from the stick.  Or is there something
else?  Must be
