Both presently existing defaults are cases where the workflow is needlessly interrupted, and could be taken as examples for needlessly increasing the complexity of the Rev IDE. One man's lost productivity is another man's productivity gained. :) This may apply in cases, but probably not generally. My custom script editor hides palettes when it opens a script because those palettes aren't used in scripting and just obscure the scripting window I'm now in. On my medium-sized screen there is ample room besides the Rev tools stack to accommodate two open script editor windows side by side, so there is really no need to hide the tools stack in the default preferences settings. Instead of hiding the tools palette, a better way to deal with this issue (in those rare cases where a visible tools palette could be considered as obstructive) would be to set the systemwindow property of the tools stack to false, which would enable the script editor window to be placed on a layer above the tools palette. But of course once the script editor is closed or minimized, all those layout tools need to come back reliably. As Alejandro Tejado has stated when he started this thread, this is apparently not the case, those layout tools *need* to, but actually do not come back reliably I just briefly tested Rev 4 and when I closed the script editor from the close box it brought back the tool palettes. I may have missed a step to reproduce that, and of course if you can post a reproducible recipe to the RQCC it should be fixed ASAP (it probably won't take long to do). -- Richard Gaskin I had indicated the reproducible steps in my post of Dec 15 (thread Rev IDE vs MetaCard IDE ): - If you edit a script and close the editor with the close icon - instead of the compile button - the tools palette (which disappears when you open the script editor) will not re-appear., i.e. after you have made a change to the script and then do *not* use the compile button, but the close box instead.-- I still think the default preference settings for using the script editor should be exactly the other way round: Leaving the palettes in their place and allowing multiple open script windows.

Re: Run App from DMG?
Yes. It is perfectly fine to run from a DMG although it would be a 2 step process. 1. Double-click the DMG file to open it and 2. Double-click the application icon. It will be read-only. Your users will be left with the open DMG image which looks like a drive volume that they will have to Eject when they are done.

Re: Blank Page printed with RevPrintField command
Hi Brent, The blank result means that RR did detected any problem. So you need to isolate the problem by testing different possibility. If necessary send the results of your tests in a dialog box and then rebuild your application for windows. - It is possible that the field is not found: test the existence of the field Results - It is possible that your printing is done in white. Test the font color printing. Fix the color to black before printing - This could be a font not existing in windows. Verify that the font used in your field exists in your Windows configuration. - Check the font size when printing under windows. May be your font is to small or to big. - Try to print with another printer or with a pdf driver (like pdf creator). Maybe it's a problem with the printer or with its driver.

I use the Rev 3.5 IDE editor for my development (single pane, multi- tabbed) Most all of my programming is scripting (and not layout or GUI work), so I only need the tool bar on rare occasions. I prefer it to hide when the script editor is open, but always show the message box. (as a debugging tool) The option of individual script editor windows would be *very* nice, as would split pane controls. My answer to this is to paste the handler(s) into BBEdit, make changes, then paste back into Rev. This also helps when editing scripts that are on different computers that need to communicate with each other.

Re: EASY way to add n days to a date?
A conversion function really handy! Not totally in the subject: An easy trick to know the end date of one month without creating complex script to test the number of days in the months, years leap, etc.. Take the first date of the month, then add one month and substract one day, like this : on mouseUp put 12/01/2009 into lMyDate answer addToDate(lMyDate,0,1,-1) end mouseUp function addToDate pStartDate,pAddToYear,pAddToMonth,pAddToDay convert pStartDate to dateitems add pAddToYear to item 1 of pStartDate add pAddToMonth to item 2 of pStartDate add pAddToDay to item 3 of pStartDate convert pStartDate to short date return pStartDate end addToDate -Zryip TheSlug wish you the best ! 8) convert tDate to dateitems add numDays to item 3 of tDate convert tDate to short date -- or other format The nice thing about the convert command is that you can add any number of days and it will figure out the right date anyway, changing the month and/or year as necessary. -- Jacqueline Landman Gay | jac...@hyperactivesw.com HyperActive Software | http://www.hyperactivesw.com ___ 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 ___ 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

J. Landman Gay wrote: Kay C Lan wrote: I would hope the world would become more like this List, blind to race, creed, sex, religion, political bent or whacky opinion. This is so well said. I add my best wishes to everyone on this list. It's so much like home here and I'm so fond of you all. Echo that from Kauai's Hindu Monastery. There is so much talk about interfaith, We are part of the local Interfaith Roundtable of Kauai and a team from Hinduism Today has just returned from the Parliament of the World's Religions in Australia. It was considered such a big deal. In reality, on the ground, outside of conferences, or meetings, there is not much collaboration or real dialog or co-creation. I've often wished I could go to a RunRev Live conference just to say that, romantic as it sounds, that this list despite being all about code and a niche software application, fulfills, in a microcosmic way, the higher objectives we would all wish for humanity as a whole: people working together, regardless of differences, to help each other and create a better world. Some people talk about it, RunRev Revolutionaries do their best to actually do it. And it is happening not only here but on many internet collaboration sites. (If you were a draftsman using VectorWorks you would find another such community.) The digital fires of software development is helping to melt down the icy walls put up by those of a by-gone age. Wishing everyone the best for the solstice (very special this year as there is a conjunction of the earth with the sun and the galactic center) and a joyful prosperous 2010.

While we're drifting off topic... I'm on some astronomy lists, and this month has a few interesting alignments (some are past already). Here's a list: December 6th – Moon near Mars December 10th – Moon near Saturn December 13th/14th – Maximum of Geminid Meteor Shower December 18th – Mercury at Greatest Eastern Elongation; Crescent Moon nearby December 20th/21st – Jupiter/Neptune Conjunction December 21st – Moon near Jupiter and Neptune December 21st – Winter Solstice (17.47 GMT) December 31st – Partial Eclipse of the Moon (18.52-19.54 GMT) The Jupiter/Neptine ones interest me the most, because I've seen firsthand seven planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth - by looking downwards, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, and Uranus - through my telescope), so Neptune is the only official planet I haven't seen. Having Jupiter nearby should help to track it down, assuming the NYC snow clouds are gone by then. ___ 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: [ANN] Poll for tRev users aka help me free the option key
Stephen, et al... This polling system we use have really helped us get the ball in from the ten yard line. Sometimes I reach a cross-roads with a feature and need user feedback to be very specific and easy to track. This polling mechanism has been great for us. I could probably think of another metaphor to describe it, but I think I'll leave it at that. I encourage all the tRev users out there to check in and cast their votes.

Slideshows in iRev
while waiting for the plug-in to settle down ( I can't deploy revlets until the update function is working) I've been playing with iRev engine. Here's a slide show that uses an iRev template in an iFrame. http://www.himalayanacademy.com/resources/lexicon/images/backgrounds/ this code is generated by iRev functions to set up links behind the previous and next buttons, where the buttons post the next slide and previous slide numbers and path to the irev page which then returns the slide with a new set of update buttons. I'm not really worried about the round trip to the server because the html here is so small, the CSS (not shown) is cached and you have to fetch the photos anyway, a little more html text is hardly an issue. Now, I'm wondering if there is a way to make this thing drive itself, so the user does not have to click the next button, using iRev code.

Re: Slideshows in iRev
If you don't mind messing with a little Javascript, it could be as
simple as this:
body onLoad=setTimeout('window.location.href = \'http://http://
www.himalayanacademy.com/slideshows/templates/slideshow.irev?path=/
resources/lexicon/images/backgrounds/current_slide=13\' '), 5000)
This would go to the next slide in 5 seconds after the current page is
loaded. You could of course right more elegant JavaScript functions
around this, but if you want to minimize your JavaScript exposure,
this one-liner should work. It just creates a 5 second timer, and then
changes the URL of the current page.

Re: [OT] Politically Incorrect - Sorry List Mum
To those who are neither Christian or celebrate the New Year based on the Gregorian calendar, my wishes extend to you as well as I would hope the world would become more like this List, blind to race, creed, sex, religion, political bent or whacky opinion. Thanks to all those who've been so patient to answer my mundane questions, to gentle point me in the correct direction when I've strayed a little off track, and politely allowed me to throw what little I know into the ring when I've plucked up the courage to mix it with a few of the real experts on this List. Until 2010, to you and your families, the best of health, the best of times, be your best for them, Ditto :-) And thanks for expressing it so well Kay.
