Have to agree with this one. My completely unscientific survey at an Apple store recently noted that of all 6 purchases I witnessed, 1 was a Uni student who bought a MacBook whilst the other 5 who bought iPads (well put their name on a list because the 3Gs were all sold out) were all 60+ and some mentioned they had a Kindle and the main purpose of the iPad purchase was to read. When I got home I rang my Mum (70+ y/o) with the intent on making some subtle inquiries about if she knew what a Kindle was etc, to gauge whether it was something she might use. To my surprise she was fully aware of what an iPad was, and has every intention of purchasing one as soon as they become available in her country. The reason, a smart phone is way too small for any useful reading, she regularly drags a laptop to the State Library but feels it's too big, so a Pad style device seems to be the perfect compromise. She considered the Kindle too limited in scope for the work she has to do at the Library and was already aware of iApps that existed that were going to be 'very helpful'. My Mum is an Windows user, is aware of my Apple tendancies, but due to how far away I live, my brothers, who consider Steve the anti-christ, ensure Mum is kept well clear of such uncleanliness. I must say I was very surprised. ___ 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
Coming unstuck with standalones: a real head CASE
I have been working recently on a teacher version (wrongly called 'Pro') of my Devawriter program for Sanskrit. Feeling reasonably smug (Hey-Ho, pride comes before the fall) I sent some standalones labelled 'Beta' off, down the pipe, to my Beta testers; only to recieve a fairly forthright answer that the thing didn't work properly ! Cracked out the standalone, and it DIDN'T . . . :( Went back to the stack, and it DID . . . the mystery thickens . . . SO; what's going wonky??? A tediously long SWITCH routine; on rawKeyDown RAWK set the useUnicode to true switch RAWK --- buckets more CASE stuff here case 101 if the vis of group CONZ is true then send mouseUp to img 2327k break else send mouseUp to img f2310.png break end if --- buckets more CASE stuff here default pass rawKeyDown end switch end rawKeyDown In the stack, when the group CONZ is not visible the latter half of the CASE statement 'fires', In a standalone, when the CONZ is not visible the latter half of the CASE statement DOESN'T WORK. Poo, Poo, Poo! --- Moronically speculative interlude.

Linux Audio Playback clips audio?
Hi All... Still experimenting with the Linux version of Rev. I have been using the following to record audio in my stack: put the effective filename of this stack into theTargetPath set the itemDel to / delete last item of theTargetPath delete first item of theTargetPath put / theTargetPath /recordings into theRecordingTarget convert the date the long time to seconds put it into tFileNameRec put tFileNameRec into cd fld audioFileName put arecord -d 10 -f u8 -t wav into tShellCmd put shell(tShellCmdtheRecordingTargettFileName) put theRecordingTargettFileNameRec into cd fld recordingName This creates an audio recording that is 10 seconds long in the recordings directory. The audio file plays in its entirety when played back in the Totem Movie Player. However, when played back through Revolution the file gets clipped and only approximately the last 5 seconds of the 10 second audio file plays. I'm just using the following to play it back: put cd fld recordingName of cd 1 into tAudioFile play url tAudioFile Any tips on what I might try to make the entire audio file play back? Thank you!

Implementing a library of behavior buttons across multiple applications
I'm trying to figure out the best way to make a library of behavior buttons available to multiple applications. I originally developed the library as a substack of my application but would now like to move it to a separate .rev file and refer to it from other applications. Seems like that gives me a single maintenance point - fix any behavior problems in the library and it's automatically fixed in all applications. However, it's feeling like this isn't a practical solution. As I understand it, the behavior property of an object uses the long id of the button it refers to and I think the long id includes the operating system path to the .rev file that the button is in. Just for development purposes, I have three different folders I use - one for code and test, another for QA, and anther for the final application. SO if I set the behavior to point to my library of behaviors in the code and test folder, then move the app's .rev file to the QA folder, the behavior properties will still point to the behavior library of in the code and test folder. And so on. I'm sure there much more experienced users than me out there who have run into this problem and hoping they can share how they dealt with it. Only thing I can think of is a script that runs during installtion to go find all controls with a behavior property set and change it to the correct one.

Re: Dynamic screen during application execution ?
Hi David, Thanks very much for your response. For sure I'm interested to see what you have done. My stack is available here : http://revonline2.runrev.com/stack/469/Mobile-Template-for-IPhone-IPad-Android My goal is to give a template to developers for the basic part of an application on mobile devices, more I could implement in the template, less the developers have to think about basic architecture and could focus on their business part. In the actual version, I have one sub-stack per device and I concentrate all code in the main stack, like that for sub-stack you just call command and function from main stack. This solution seems correct, but at the end you have to design your screen for each kind of device, with the risk of mistake. It's why I was thinking about 1 sub-stack only, and just design the screen on the fly when the program is executed, I though with this solution, you have less chance to do a mistake, and for the specific part I will just use Switch, Case. The only bad thing is that you don't have a real screen available for developing, you have to put objects on the right place during execution and so... It's also why I search someone who has already experimented this kind of feature, I received absolutely no feedback from others about my template, and I'm not sure if it could help someone or not ... Thanks, Cheers, Fabrice On May 21, 2010, at 12:54 PM, David Bovill wrote: Hi Fabrice, quick answer yes Revolution is plenty fast enough to do this sort of dynamic screen resizing based on the device. Here are a few tips: - Dynamic scaling or toggle to different presets? With the latter you can write script to simply take snapshots of their geometry and save them as a custom prop - Is it really any faster than creating distinct static interfaces? How generic are the components? - You may find that it is better to organise the project as stacks with views that can be resized using behaviors attached to groups. The main project stack would have your screen and the components would then be sub-stacks. Rev is fast enough to copy the components from one stack to another and redraw them for development. - When finished you can if needed remove the templates in the library substacks and keep the behaviors. Be happy to show you how it works with a screen cast, and interested to see what components you want as I've a few in my library that might serve as a starting point?

Re: Remote SQL databases
Hi Mark and all interested parties. Perhaps I failed to mention that the two databases do not know about each other. The SQL server doing the join has no access to the file based SQLite database it is doing a join against. I am pretty sure this is impossible to do like this. It's okay though because I thought of another method for accomplishing this. If I query the table I am importing data from for the key column data, I can create a query of records in the destination database for the same keys. I can then compare both results, and the source keys that I do not find in the destination keys I can insert into the destination database before I go on and do my real data updating. Another facet of this is that I want the Data Import/Merge feature to be highly scalable, so I am building in paging. I want to be able to use this functionality and also to make it available to others as a standalone stack or app in the future. I need to know the limits of Revolution when it comes to doing SQL queries. How big a data set, in terms of bytes of data, do you think would be the most I should have in my page size? I wonder if anyone on the list has ever really pushed the limits of Revolution data sets? I know it depends on how much memory Revolution has access to, because queries are returned as read only memory based data, and the conversion to a text string would effectively double that.

Re: Dynamic screen during application execution ?
I've downloaded it - will digest and feed back :) On 24 May 2010 21:43, Fabrice Muller fabricemul...@me.com wrote: Hi David, Thanks very much for your response. For sure I'm interested to see what you have done. My stack is available here : http://revonline2.runrev.com/stack/469/Mobile-Template-for-IPhone-IPad-Android My goal is to give a template to developers for the basic part of an application on mobile devices, more I could implement in the template, less the developers have to think about basic architecture and could focus on their business part. In the actual version, I have one sub-stack per device and I concentrate all code in the main stack, like that for sub-stack you just call command and function from main stack. This solution seems correct, but at the end you have to design your screen for each kind of device, with the risk of mistake. It's why I was thinking about 1 sub-stack only, and just design the screen on the fly when the program is executed, I though with this solution, you have less chance to do a mistake, and for the specific part I will just use Switch, Case. The only bad thing is that you don't have a real screen available for developing, you have to put objects on the right place during execution and so... It's also why I search someone who has already experimented this kind of feature, I received absolutely no feedback from others about my template, and I'm not sure if it could help someone or not ... Thanks, Cheers, Fabrice On May 21, 2010, at 12:54 PM, David Bovill wrote: Hi Fabrice, quick answer yes Revolution is plenty fast enough to do this sort of dynamic screen resizing based on the device. Here are a few tips: - Dynamic scaling or toggle to different presets? With the latter you can write script to simply take snapshots of their geometry and save them as a custom prop - Is it really any faster than creating distinct static interfaces? How generic are the components? - You may find that it is better to organise the project as stacks with views that can be resized using behaviors attached to groups. The main project stack would have your screen and the components would then be sub-stacks. Rev is fast enough to copy the components from one stack to another and redraw them for development. - When finished you can if needed remove the templates in the library substacks and keep the behaviors. Be happy to show you how it works with a screen cast, and interested to see what components you want as I've a few in my library that might serve as a starting point?

GLX Application Framework: difference between a resource and a stack
Second go digging into this great open source framework: wandering the best way to get a stack loaded as a library on startup. So do I use a stack, or add it as a resource like the suggested route for datagrid the library - wandering what the difference is.

Re: Script Reporter v1.1 crashes

Editing Text Selections?
Sorry for posting what I'm sure is a beaten-horse topic, but I feel like I'm reinventing the wheel here and am under a deadline... Since Rev is incapable of maintaining multiple text selections, is the proper way to create a text editor (ie: select some text in a field, and for example, set the size of the text using another field) to create an artificial selection of the selected text? In the list archives, I read the technique of setting the backColor of the selected text so that it appears to remain selected while focus changes to fields in the editor. Is this the accepted way to go about setting up a text editor? I'm asking because it's seems like a fragile arrangement, easy to generate errors based on when text is actually selected versus when it's not. I just wanted to make sure that this is the right method to use before I go too far in this direction. Hope this makes sense -- thanks in advance for any suggestions/confirmations/rejections.

Re: Remote SQL databases
I am not a MySQL expert but I have found that it is possible to join different databases, each with various tables. The trick is to use the database name to fully qualify the table and item such as: SELECT db1.table1.item1, db2.table2.item1 FROM db1.table1, db2.table2 WHERE ... Here is a sample that I have used successfully: put SELECT db1.table1.date, into tSQLcommand put db2.table2.type, FORMAT(db2.table2.amount,2), after tSQLcommand put db1.table1.code1 after tSQLcommand put FROM db1.table1 after tSQLcommand put INNER JOIN db2.table2 ON db1.table1.code1 = db2.table2.code2 after tSQLcommand put WHERE db2.table2.amount 1.00 after tSQLcommand put ORDER BY db1.table1.date; after tSQLcommand put revDataFromQuery(tab, return, tConId, tSQLcommand) into tItems I did not find it necessary to give the databases alias names. In my situation, both databases are on the same machine and can be accessed using the same username/password. Hope this helps.

Binary files inconsistency
The next version of InfoWallet will support attaching files that are compressed and encrypted when stored. I've noticed that it works correctly with some files but not others. The script below takes a binary file, compresses it, decompresses it, and then saves it back to disk. I've skipped the encryption part for this recipe because it behaves the same way. It works correctly with .jpg, pdf, and .doc files but not .pages or keynote. Make a new stack and put the following script in a button. on mouseUp answer file Select a file: if it is not empty then put it into lFileToRead put URL (binfile: lFileToRead) into vFile put compress(vFile) into vFile set the itemdelimiter to tab ask file Select destination to save file: with the last item of lFileToRead if it is not empty then put it into vFilePath put decompress(vFile) into vFile put vFile into URL (binfile: vFilePath) set the filetype to end if end if end mouseUp The saved Pages or Keynote files have zero length.
