adding new object to background group
I'd like to add a button to an existing background group, but RR/LC is telling me if I do that I am going to loose the background with that group on it from all previous cards. And it does. Here's what I did. Added the button. Selected the existing background group (group 1031) and the new object and selected group. I get a warning that if I do this I will loose the background from existing cards, I say ok. Sure enough the current card and all future cards (now group 1095) contain the new button, and all previous cards are blank (because the whole card was just a background obj). What I would really like to do is edit group 1031 to add a new button and have it inherited on all previous cards. Is there a way to do that? I guess putting this more generically, is there a way to edit a background group and not loose all of the cards that previous had this group? Thanks -- Mark PS I did get the compiling thing working (thank you for all you help). I'm using the following at the moment (largely because of its simplicity) and it works fine. on preopenstack lock screen -- prevents the user from seeing what's going on hide this stack -- so they don't see it, same as set visible of stack mystack to true go to stack /Users/Mark/runrev/stacks/Notepad/Notepad3.rev end preopenstack -- note this stack can be hard to edit subsequently because the preopenstack message -- hides the stack. You can get around this by using the application browser, finding the stack -- 'startup' and clicking on it. This will make it visible again. The two things I had to learn in this scenario are 1) you must use the extension .rev or the 'go to stack' function will not work and 2) you must provide the full path. -- Mark PPSS I've bookmarked the more complex solution that allows storing the notepad stack in the osx bundle (keep in mind I am referring to things I don't even know what they are) and will work through it later.

Re: Storing an Array as a Custom Property
Hi Jacqueline, Yes, I will. But the documentation problem, both with the user guide and built-in help or dictionary, goes far beyond updating. Good writing, examples, organization, and consistency in design take time. If you type the word Array into the built-in help, the only hits you will get is for ArrayEncode and ArrayDecode but nothing for an array itself. Someone new to LiveCode, who perhaps coincidentally got far enough into the user guide to come across arrays, would be hard-pressed to get any information about their uses or properties. A benchmark for good documentation in my mind is the original HyperCard User Guide and HyperCard Reference Manual. The writing is clean and the example code statements and handler snippets are carefully chosen to give the fullest scope of usage of the item in question. Another is Mathematica's built-in documentation (and even their online documentation), where what they lack in Apple's writing and publishing suave, they make up for in comprehensiveness. My recommendation for the Rev team would be to spend less time on rebranding and promotional splash screens and more polishing the software.

You get this warning if you try to ungroup a group that is shared among multiple cards, but you can do what you want by: 1) Select the group you want to add the button to with the pointer tool. 2) Click Edit Group on the toolbar (NOT Ungroup). This will go into the group, and anything outside of that group will be temporarily hidden. 3) Add your button to the card like normal. 4) Click the Edit Group button again on the toolbar to get out of the group. You'll see the rest of the card objects show up at that time. This will add the button to any cards that have the group you edited on it (i.e. all the previous cards).

Re: WINDOWS VERSION MENU PROBLEM - architect
Hi Joe, I agree. As my program grows finding all the bits and pieces will be difficult. Having an option to save all scripts to text with some minimal description (button script -- delete, stack script, etc) would allow to browse all the code, get some idea of how it is organized as well as back it up (and I tend to put a lot of comments in my code so it reinforces what I am learning). It would be very useful. If its not in LC maybe we should send a feature request? Hi Mark, I don't think it is a feature. I had to do it one at a time, but no big deal. Saved a lot of time in rebuilding them. It would probably be a good idea to save them routinely as I've lost them a number of times in the past when I was experimenting. The more I think about it, there MUST be something built into rev to do that. -- View this message in context: http://runtime-revolution.278305.n4.nabble.com/WINDOWS-VERSION-MENU-PROBLEM-architect-tp2848149p2953347.html Sent from the Revolution - User mailing list archive at Nabble.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

Definitely! We' all benefit from RunRev opening up the development dialogue in a managed way. We'd get a heads up on what was coming and help shape and fix bugs in the forthcoming product, and RunRev would get a happier community and less bugs. It cant be done for everything, but it sure could be done for a lot more things. A classic example is the On-Rev client. Locking that thing up in a standalone was completely pointless. Active members of the community could have rolled their own versions of a client (ie based on an informal API), that would have been orders of magnitude better than the current offering. It would not have mattered if this API moved fast (it hasn't anyway), nor would it matter if they withdrew the API / charged for it / locked things down afterwards (as long as we knew this was a possibility up front). We can only hope that this old-school business logic is replaced by a saner cooperation with developers, a saner use of common technologies to integrate the various lists, forums, and bug tracking, and an intelligent use of open content licensing for some of the IDE components. ___ 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

ANN: A true scrolling canvas demo
Hi All, I am glad to anounce the ccScroller group. After many years, on and off, trying to get it to work right, I finaly succeeded in creating a true scrolling canvas like group. I managed to get something to work before but now I found a simple and elegant solution. You can drag objects around in the group and the canvas will always adept to the placement of the objects. It grows and shrinks as neccesary, in the expected and sane way. The final piece I needed was mentioned by Richard quiete a few weeks ago, the boundingRect. The boundingRect alone isn't sufficient but it turned out to be a crucial extra piece I needed to acomplish this canvas group. I tryed to uploaded it to revOnLine but after I logged out I couldn't log in anymore. Apparently the password they send me this afternoon is wrong now. I don't know. So I have no idea if the upload went correctly because I can't find it nowhere anymore. Revonline seems a bit flaky at the moment. I will try again later. Probably the easyest way to get the stack is to execute the following in the messagebox: go stack URL http://www.claudi.on-rev.com/livecode/ccScroller_demo.rev; and check it out. I hope (some of) you find it usefull All the best Claudi ___ 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

So true Gregory. Michael On Oct 3, 2010, at 12:16 PM, Gregory Lypny wrote: But the documentation problem, both with the user guide and built-in help or dictionary, goes far beyond updating. Good writing, examples, organization, and consistency in design take time. If you type the word Array into the built-in help, the only hits you will get is for ArrayEncode and ArrayDecode but nothing for an array itself. Someone new to LiveCode, who perhaps coincidentally got far enough into the user guide to come across arrays, would be hard-pressed to get any information about their uses or properties. A benchmark for good documentation in my mind is the original HyperCard User Guide and HyperCard Reference Manual. The writing is clean and the example code statements and handler snippets are carefully chosen to give the fullest scope of usage of the item in question. Another is Mathematica's built-in documentation (and even their online documentation), where what they lack in Apple's writing and publishing suave, they make up for in comprehensiveness.

Re: adding new object to background group
I think someone (Jacques, probably) pointed out that there is a direct way to do this. Wasn't it using the copy object to group form of the copy command? I am not near Rev, er Livecode right now, but there was a way, posted several months ago. I still have slight conceptual blocks with groups, especially as represented by this particular question. The above method bypassed the firewall that groups still throw up (in my face, at least). That they need not be deconstructed in order to get control of their inner workings is a natural and comforting feature, and was an example of how a simple, native solution cut through a lot of opacity. If only I could remember all these cuties.
