Re:The RR programming model
Stacks and Messages paths --and yet that doesn't seem clear enough to me. Looking at the discussion on the list, it is frequently stressed if you want speed, you keep the data out of the stack-card-field paradym and put the information in a variable or an array. Another words if I was designing an address database: with my stack hat on I think I should create a stack with multiple cards each dedicated to the information of one individual. But this does not seem to be what I should doing. I should really be keeping things out of stacks-cards-fields except for display purposes and then I'm back a not dis-similar method of programing than any other?.

Re: Variable convention questions
Filter! I've just looked it up in the Transcript dictionary. I don't have to worry about inconsistencies in logic and it's leaner scripting! filter theList with "*.txt" Thanks, Richard Fred ___ use-revolution mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
Variable convention questions
I have just hand-rolled my first real handler/function. It, puts the list of files that end in "txt" which are in the same folder/directory as the stack into a variable called theList. - on buildPickList theList set the itemDelimiter to "/" set the defaultFolder to item 1 to -2 of the effective filename of this stack put the files into theFileList repeat for each line thisLine in theFileList if char -3 to -1 of thisLine is "txt" then put thisLine & return after theList end repeat end buildPickList - Since I am new to programming and Rev I've got questions regarding variables. I haven't declared the variables at the beginning of the function. Is this good practice? There is a variable created in this line "repeat for each line thisLine in theFileList" which I filched the method from the "repeat" section of the Transcript dictionary. Why should it work? I would have thought I would have had to do something like below (except "this" is reserved for cards and stacks) : "repeat for each line of theFileList set theLine to this line... " It seems logically inconsistent to create variable simply by placing it after "repeat for each line". Why does it work? Aside the above can the function be improved/made more efficent?

Whereas, under 10.1, a QT version check would not do a thing in terms of speeding up the subsequent initial call to QT (resulting in a spinning beachball), under 10.2.no wait and no more beachball. Also, unrelated but interesting, under OS 10.2/QT 6, the QT musical instruments (Roland samples) have been modified such that there is always a slight reverb (apparently more pronounced at the end of a MIDI sequence, for example, or maybe just more audible at that point since there are no more notes being played).

Re: Checkbox problem
Klaus/ David Thanks I tried both versions which work. One question Klaus you set the invisible property with hilite property (am I using these words correctly?) of the check box. The hilite and invisible properties are both true or false states? "on mouseUp set the invisible of field ID "1068" to the hilite of me set the invisible of field ID "1069" to the hilite of me set the invisible of field ID "1070" to the hilite of me end mouseup" Fred D ___ use-revolution mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
Checkbox problem
I have a number of fields that I want to remain invisible --unless the user checks a check box on a card. I cannot figure out how to trap the on/off state of the button. What does rev. call this state? Here is my script which is on the checkbox control on MouseUp if ??? of me is true then set the invisible of field ID "1068" to true set the invisible of field ID "1069" to true set the invisible of field ID "1070" to true else set the invisible of field ID "1068" to true set the invisible of field ID "1069" to true set the invisible of field ID "1070" to true end if end MouseUp TA Fred D ___ use-revolution mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
Newbie Font and Quicktime questions
So, I am finally cracking my nuckles and (after about six weeks of reading posts and going through tutorials getting down to the business of building something I have two questions Fonts - In the font menu is the option "Use Owners font" I am assuming that this is like the object/stack structure with the reference going up (or down) the branches until it reaches ? Where is the first referencing of the font attribute? I can specify any of the fonts that are on my system but since this is an application that is going to be distributed over all Mac/Win.Linux systems I should probably stick to? If this were web design I could use list "Helevetica, Arial, sans-serif", is this handled in the Profile Manager (the one tutorial I have yet to do)? Quicktime I can use quicktime effects and display movies in cards. I the quick time functionality embedded in the distributed application or am I going to have to ensure that the user has Quicktime installed on their system? many thanks, FDYocum ___ use-revolution mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
