Re: Bullet Application Script?

[Chipp Walters]

Yes, you seem to be on your own :-) I did create a bunch of code to generate
the HTML for bullet points based on tabs, but I think it's different than
what you're talking about.

BTW, do you know if you can set the alphaimage of a new image to an existing
RGB image without having to do the math (which I already have).

hahaha-- turned your question into one of my own. I guess I've been spending
too much time in CA lately ?

Bullet Application Script?

[Scott Rossi]

Does anyone have a routine for applying bullets to a block of text?

I writing a script that can apply and remove bullet characters from a block
of text and it occurred to me that maybe I'm reinventing the wheel here and
somebody has already built something like this.

Thanks in advance to anyone who is willing to share.

Re: File lists

[Bob Cole]

I was intrigued by the File Lists discussion so I spent some time on playing 
with AppleScript.
I uploaded a stack to RevOnLine that demonstrates how to use AppleScript to 
access lots of information about a file.
Take a look for:  "AppleScript File Info"
Hope this may be useful,
Bob

Try googling it. I think there are utilities that can restore the lost Start

Re: Restore Windows Start Button?

[Mike Bonner]

Probably not the answer you're looking for, but I believe "the
fullscreen" doesn't hide the taskbar, it just lays the stack over the
top of everything corner to corner.  I've done similar in the past to
switch a browser stack in and out of pseudo fullscreen mode.  Have an
empty stack that gets fullscreened, then put the browserstack on top
of it, as well as any other stacks.

Since revbrowser apparently can't switch window id on the fly, and
fullscreening changes the windowid, this gets around the problem.
fullscreen the empty stack, pop the main stack back up and set its
rect to whatever you want it to be.  The main windows can also be
pallettes so they're always on top of the stack you are going to
fullscreen.  (And I think setting the raisewindows to true works on
windows in addition to osx right?)

Kinda a pain in the tookus to get it all working together nicely, but
last time I did it, it ended up working pretty well.

Re: Restore Windows Start Button?

[Bob Sneidar]

Aye, but it only happens in Vista and not in Windows XP. So obviously they are 
doing something different. I'd be curious to see if it happens in Windows 7 as 
well, and with different graphics cards etc. Unfortunately I have neither 
Windows 7 nor Vista at this point. The whole device driver signing thing scared 
me away.

I'm not convinced this is solely a Vista problem.  It's more likely a Rev +
Vista problem since weren't able to reproduce the problem with, for example,
PowerPoint which can also hide the taskbar.  And in my tests, the Start
button remains intact on XP.

Thanks for the suggestion but stacks positioned around taskbar don't appear
to force any refresh (even tried a systemWindow stack).

Guess I'll use brute force mouse repositioning. I have the interval set at
10 millisecs and it seems pretty unnoticeable.  Lame, but FWIW:

command restoreVistaStartButton
   put screenRect() into tRect
   put item 1 of tRect + 20,item 4 of tRect - 20 into tLoc
   put the screenMouseLoc into origLoc
   set the screenMouseLoc to tLoc
   wait 10 millisecs with messages
   set the screenMouseLoc to origLoc
end restoreVistaStartButton

 There is another option: Round up the developers of Vista and 
publicly flog them with wet brooms soaked in tuna fish oil. 

Does anyone seriously think that Microsoft uses their own software? I will bet 
good money that the developers at Microsoft do not *actually* use their own 
operating system. If they did, they would not put up with a tenth of the weird 
bugs we deal with every day. 

If anyone knows for certain that I am wrong I sure would like to know.

Re: [RevServer + Rev on Linux] Checking if you have the needed libraries

Peter,

my tip will not solve all rev problems, not even the majority but it will
make rev run when it is not running, most users have trouble starting the
software, specially server related software, this will help them. As for the
other linux problems they will be sorted on time...

Restore Windows Start Button?

[Scott Rossi]

I had a client recently point out that upon restoring the Vista taskbar
after a Rev slideshow, the Start button is invisible.  Mousing over the
region where the button is supposed to be brings it back, but this is
nonetheless bad behavior.  Try this (msg box):
 hide taskbar
 show taskbar

The Start button should now be invisible (XP seems unaffected).

The only workaround I can think of is physically moving the mouse to the
bottom left of the screen and then moving it back to the starting position
but this is quite clumsy.

Anyone have another suggestion to restore the Start button?

OK, I'm corrected.  But still, is there any evidence that cut and paste
problems in the editor, inability to handle fonts properly, issues with
printing, mutliple desktop issues, any evidence any of them are due to
library or dependency compatibility issues?  

Maybe they are - in that case lets have a list.  The problem at the moment
is that in the desktop version of Rev for Linux (I accept that the server
issues are different) you can follow Andre's instructions, satisfy yourself
you have no dependency problems, and then still not be able to print or use
fonts properly.

I am delinquent on hacking away at Slackware.  Life and age.  My goodness,

there's a better way.


I think the three of us must be old!  I used to sniff at XML too: not only the 
performance implications of parsing it, but also the appalling verbosity as a

But, pardoning me for pointing out (and apologies in advance if it's just me) 
we're... ol^H^H experienced; we've grown up when every byte and cpu cycle was 
precious and it was worth hours or days to save a few.  Now we're conserving 
the wrong things: because CPUs are incredibly fast, and RAM is vast, and 
drives are huge, and the cloud is inexhaustible... and the resource that is 
really scarce now is developer time.  XML saves a great deal of that, and the 
cost in performance and compactness is a small price to pay.


The advent of smartphones made me think for the first time in years that at 
last my rusty old reactions, that my young colleagues sneer at, had a value 
again - but it turns out that even these tiny things have such performance and 
capacity that I'm wrong, yet again.

To get the selected language in OS X it seems that the following works well:

put replaceText(shell("defaults read NSGlobalDomain
AppleLanguages"),"(\s|\(|\))","") into theLanguagesList


How does one get the same information on a Windows machine?

Jim,

On Windows, try:

put shell("systeminfo")

Somewhere in the return lines you will find the selected language.

However not working with all the Windows versions

Re: [RevServer + Rev on Linux] Checking if you have the needed libraries

Yes. I can't run revserver on my hosted account because there is a 
library dependency that my ISP hasn't provided. Mark Waddingham has told 
me that he needs to recompile without that dependency -- Rev doesn't 
really need it, it was just included as part of a standard compile. 
Sorry, I can't remember which library it was, but until the dependency 
is removed I can't run my copy of revserver. I'm hoping the next release 
will fix it.

Useful info.

It's true that not all of Rev's Linux problems are specific to missing 
libraries, any more than all of its much-more-numerous issues on Mac and 
Windows are related to component dependencies.


But those issues unrelated to such things may be more difficult to track 
down and fix, and may not entirely be problems with Rev.


For example, as I noted here earlier we can see from discussions on the 
RB list that folks there are also having trouble with print orientation, 
and I read the Ubuntu forums often enough to know that issues with the 
Gnome clipboard annoy a great many people who've never used Rev at all.


All of these issues should of course be pursued, and as I noted here the 
printPaperOrientation is being investigated.


Those of us with a sincere interest in improving the Rev experience on 
Linux can help by doing the sort of diagnostics Andre has been 
contributing, and also spending time with other Linux communities, esp. 
their bug databases, to better understand the scope of issues we face.


I've done similar things with Mac OS before, having dug up an API Scott 
Raney needed for a fix on that platform, and I certainly don't mind 
doing the same for the Linux engine.


As we gather the info that would be helpful in finding solutions, we can 
post this to the relevant entries in the RQCC.  Doing so helps us 
catalog useful info in a DB that we can refer the team to for faster 
resolution.


I believe in the power of crowdsourcing, and I know RunRev does too as 
we may see increasingly in the coming months.  Even if we have a small 
crowd here, there's much we can contribute to the process of making a 
better working environment for ourselves.


Thank you for your efforts, Andre.  You continue to be a wealth of 
information for us all.

Re: [RevServer + Rev on Linux] Checking if you have the needed libraries

[Andre Garzia]

Peter,

there are indeed problems that are tied to missing libraries. I think this
is true at least for Rev IDE if I remember correctly from past experiences,
rev will startup with some missing libs and will remove the feature used
from that library. For example text antialiasing with pango, if pango is not
present IDE will load without antialiasing, I also think that if you're
missing mplayer it will still load but play no video.

I can't say this is definitely true these days but I think rev ide
gracefully degrades some of its features in the absense of some libraries
but I don't quite remember if this is the intended behaviour never
implemented or if this is true right now.

I will try more about it later.

Andre

AW: Is it Rev, is it Valentina, is it MacOS? Need help! - SOLVED

[Tiemo Hollmann TB]

Hello,

Just wanted to let you know, that it was indeed a bug in Valentina with
IOEncoding and it is as Version 4.8b1 fixed
Why it has worked before (without this fix) nobody can explain...
So everybody using non latin chars can use Valentina again.
