How do you resize a snapshot from rect?
Hi there all, I take a snapshot from a card put I want the exported file to be saved resized (bigger). I do the same with printing but then I set the printscale to 1.8.

LiveCode external/plugin question
Hi there, I wonder if there is a external/plugin for LiveCode that gives Apps on Windows a kiosk style/mode? And I mean true kiosk so ALTF4, CTRLALTDEL and the Windows Keys are disabled.

Re: LiveCode external/plugin question
@Matthias and Mark: Thanks for your replies! I was looking for true kiosk mode so Marks advise using IE isn't the right thing for me. I need all keys to be blocked. Editing the registry seems the only way but it needs the computer to reboot. I need my app on startup to block these keys without rebooting the machine. After closing the app the keys need to function again. Is this even possible?

Create HTML file from rev app
Hi there all, It's been a while since my last question but working hard on some apps. For my daily job I needed a quick app to create a HTML file.

All works fine but when I look at the sourcecode in IE8 or Safari the HTML isn't completely correct. In a link it misses the quotes () at the beginning or the end of the URL.

Delay in opening the first card. How can I solve this?
Hi there, I notice quite some delay in opening cards in my new app on Win 7. On OSX all is fine (I asked before on the list). I click a button and nothing happens (so it seems). After some time the next card is shown. It is just a button with the most simple script: go cd start_2x2. In the end it will be an app with about 100 cards in it I think so the delay can take a while? For now I came up with the following, so the user has some visual feedback. *on* mouseUp *unlock* cursor *set* cursor to watch *lock* cursor *wait* 7 sec *go* cd start_2x2 *end* mouseUp The 7 sec is just my idea and it can take much longer.

Re: Delay in opening the first card. How can I solve this?
Hi Mark, I just used 'if the platform is Win32 then set the dontUseQT to true' on preOpenStack Tested it on WinXP (Pentium 4 2.8 Ghz with 500 MB RAM) and I noticed a little difference in speed. Without the script there is a little delay but not as much as on Windows 7. Will test that as soon as possible as well as with Windows Vista. I will keep you informed. What if the system is 64bit? Do I replace 32 with 64 in the script? Thanks again! greetings, William 2010/6/2 Mark Schonewille m.schonewi...@economy-x-talk.com Hi William, The wait command in your script just adds another delay, because RunRev is completely blocked while waiting. If you add with messages to the command, you'll give the engine a chance to do its thing while your script waits. I don't think this will make much of a difference, except that going to the next card will always take more than 7 seconds. I have had the same problem several times, too. I wonder whether it has something to do with QuickTime. Getting the QTVersion in the preOpenStack handler will load QT before the first card shows. Maybe this moves the delay to the startup time of your programme/stack. Setting the dontUseQT to true doesn't load QT at all, which might take away the delay completely. I might be all wrong about this, but I'm curious whether it makes any difference. Do any scripts run when cd start_2x2 opens? P.S.

I did discover that RevStudio is not compatible with aspects of tRev, which is a bad thing because tRev is such a good thing.

Slow opening of cards in .exe file
Hello there, In a new app I am working on I am experiencing slow opening of cards in the .exe file on Windows 7 (on Mac OSX the app works fine and smootly). It seems that all of the cards are send to memory at once because after the first mouseclick and about 10 sec wait it all works fine. In the button there is just a single line of code: on mouseup go cd xxx end mouseup I use a 'on preopencard' script on each card but I just hide some buttons in there. Nothing to difficult either. Is there a way to speed things up or a way to improve performance? Thanks!

What's wrong with the revWeb Plugin on OSX?
Hi there, I am using Safari 4.04 and FireFox 3.6 on OSX 10.6.2 (Snow Leopard). I started testing with revlets and they seem to work in these browsers but after putting another revlet on the web (size 1 MB) they both load the revlet but it doesn't go further than the runrev logo. FireFox even freezes! (The first revlet was less than 200 KB and still works fine). Everytime I reload the page the plugin asks for permissions as well. Very annoying! On Win 7 with IE8 and FireFox 3.6 the revlet works fine and fast!

How do I determine/set the active layer of a graphic?
Hi there, I got two graphical clock arms (ovals with set startangles) that can rotate on mouseup. Their size is different: 450x450 and 327x327. They need to rotate independent from each other and that works but only when I click on the outer size of the bigger clock arm (and not on the middle because then you got the overlap of the smaller clock arm). So I tried to set the layer of both graphics with: on mouseup set the layer of me to top end mouseup But then I still need to click on the outer size of the bigger clock arm to rotate it. The problem is that both graphics are squares and they overlap. Is there a way to determine on which graphic I click (or am about to click). Maybe with mouseLoc? Any suggestions?

Re: How do I determine/set the active layer of a graphic?
Thanks Craig, In my opinion the problem still is that the two graphics are squares. When I use the mouseloc I can set the layer of the graphic on top but only a small part of the whole graphic is the clock arm: If the mouseloc is within the rect of grc ... . But the actual clock arm is set by the startangle of the grc. Any suggestions on how to combine the mouseloc and the startangle of the grc? greetings, William 2009/11/25 dunb...@aol.com In a real clock, if the hands overlap, you have to carefully grab one or the other to move them. If the big hand is over the little hand, you have to grab the outer portion of it. Is it that you need the small graphic to come to the front when you need it to? I think you had the right idea, that if the mouseLoc is within the rect of the small hand, then you can do what you want. This will be evaluated regardless of whether the big hand in in front or not. Use the mouseMove message to test the mouseLoc. If it is within the rect of the small hand and the layer of the small hand is less than the layer of the big hand, then bring the small hand to the front. You seem more than able to write this.

Yesterday, there was a question by Malte about including the current url in the HTML code in such a way that it can be checked by the revlet. You might want to look that up. If you use PHP or iRev, you can create an encrypted parameter based on the date and the location and decrypt this parameter in the revlet.

Thanks for your replies but both Tiemo's and Marks suggestion doesn't work :-(.Neither have I found a working solution for my first question. What Craig suggested might work. To be continued... Greetings, William 2009/6/8 dunb...@aol.com Maybe I misunderstood. Do you want to invoke by simply pressing both those keys, or by some other event which just checks to see if both keys are down?

How do I block the Windows keys?
Hi there, I am looking for a way to block the Window keys (65388 and 65389) but is doesn't work because I don't know how: on rawKeyDown theKeyNumber if theKeyNumber is 65388 then . if theKeyNumber is 65389 then . end rawKeyDown And is there a way to use both CTRL and COMMAND key at the same time? When these keys are down I want to show an image and when these keys are up again the image is hidden. Thanks!

Re: How to draw a line between objects or letters?
Hi Greg, Thanks for your answer but I don't get it :-( !! Let's say on my screen there is a letter A on the left and the letters A,B.C on the right. The exercise would be to draw a line between the same letters. How would I use foundLoc in this situation? I like the student to click twice (once on the left letter A and once on one of the letters on the right side) and then there is a line drawn between the letters. Thanks! Greetings, William 2009/6/5 dunb...@aol.com You can use the foundLoc function to get the coordinates of the characters you are interested in, and the draw a line from one to the other. The dicey part is figuring out which (in your example) two A's you want if there are many in the text. Of course you can use the mouse to explicitly locate any two of them. is this what you meant?

The function returns the new width and height for your image object. I didn't think it is that cold here. It is almost 20 degrees warmer than some time ago.

Hi Eric and Jim, It is so obvious it has to do with the name and of course your suggestion works. After playing with it I got the idea of resizing the 'stamp'. I got a scrollbar to do this but it only works if I limit it to just one stamp. So I grouped the whole thing (stamp and scrollbar) and cloned it. The cloning works of course :-) but now I am stuck with the name again. The new grouped controlls get the same name and the resizing and dragging doesn't work anymore. How do I get a 'unique' name for the grouped controls while cloning the templategroup? Thanks!

Hi Mark, One again you're my hero for the day!

Re: I want to go to a different card of another stack. This works but not always in my script?!
Bonjour Eric, When I started learning and using Rev I got a stack in which it was done this way. So I thought this was the only way and the right way to do it. You showed and learned me today that it can and should be done differently. Still learning Rev every day and loving it (me being a teacher myself).

There is something weird here ;-) Every 'if' can have a 'then' only (and possibly and 'end if'): I would understand: if the hilite of btn Y of cd i of stack X [is true] then -- * put the short name of cd i of stack X into ab put ab into fld C of stack X end if But, to be frank, not the form you use. * I put brackets here to indicate that you could simplify your code and omit 'is true': A condition is always evaluated to true or false then adding 'is true' is redundant :-) Best regards from Paris, Eric Chatonet.

I want to go to a different card of another stack. This works but not always in my script?!
Hello there, I have a main stack with serveral substacks. I call the cardnames (from a substack) with: put the cardnames of stack X into fld Y. I set up the field as a clickable list with: on mouseUp if the hilitedLine is not empty then put the value of the clickline into tData then go card tData of stack X end if end mouseUp This works but only when the cardnames are the same as the card ID's. As soon as I change the cardnames change into a name like ' apple' the script doesn't work anymore. Probably the value of the clickline is related to the card ID's (I guess!). How do I change this so I can have normal cardnames? And I think it's kind a fancy when I use: sheet stack and then go to the right card. I guess that is impossible?

I made a few obstakels (walls) so he has to move around them but when he hits them he is send back to the beginposition. Not to difficult for me to make :-) and a lot of joy for him!! But now I found a 'bug' in my own game :-( When you keep the arrowkeys pressed down (instead of just one press) and hits an obstakel there is now hit and he is not send back to the beginposition. How do I prevent this? I use the following: if theKeyNumber is 65363 --rechts then move img dummy relative 30,0 if intersect (img dummy, grc muur) then send mouseup to btn start -- btn start send the car beck to its beginposition Thanks!

Re: How do I prevent a Key being pressed down all the time?
Hi Andreas, Yes I did use your script. To avoid issues I used it into a new stack. When I use my script in a button everything works fine but when using the arrowkeys it doesn't because, like I said, the key is hold down the whole time.

Re: [OT] Copyright infringement, sometimes a good way to do guerilla marketing :o)
Hi there Malte, This is just one of the disadvantages of the internet. I hope for you your website traffic is unlimited with your host otherwise you have to start paying. The kid probably doesn't know any better! I guess :-) You can however very easily prevent deeplinking by using some script on your website. Greetings, William 2008/8/27 Malte Brill [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Hi list, this an absolutely off topic post... I was reading my serverlogs yesterday night an have been a little puzzled of why a relevant amount of Traffic comes from youTube. Until now I was using youTube only passively. Looking at the detailed log revealed that some kid in the US has 'borrowed' the logo of one of my games to display as his background image. Not he did only use it without asking, but he also linked it directly from my server. I was unsure what to do. You can see my reaction here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5-9DeTyGLhE Until now the kid does not seem to have noticed. g http://www.youtube.com/user/magicguy777 All the best and have a good day, Malte ___ 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
QT: Defaultfolder files
Hi there, A quick question about Defaultfolder files. I create a folder Backup and set the defaultfolder to it and then save the .txt file. But now everytime there is a new folder created in which the new .txt file is saved. Of course I want the Backup folder to be created only once so I want to check if it exists on mouseup: if there is a folder Backup then set defaultfolder to it else create folder Backup The 'problem' still exists. What am I doing wrong?

Re: QT: Defaultfolder files
Bonjour and merci Eric, I added a / (slash) and now it works (only one folder is created and all the .txt files are stored in it): if there is a folder /Backup then set defaultfolder to it else create folder /Backup The folder however is now created on the root of my OSX HD. What happens when I create a standalone? Will the folder be created on the same level as the standalone or also on the root of my HD? (I actually want it to be on the same level as the standalone) greetings, William 2008/8/27 Eric Chatonet [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Bonjour William, When you write: 'if there is a folder Backup', Rev looks at a 'Backup' folder in the current default folder because you specify a name only. Try to use a complete path name for the backup folder and it will work :-) I assume you can deduce it from your main stack location.

Re: Mac icon specifications
Hi there Chris, As I recall you need to paste the icon file yourself be done by right-clicking on the .rev file (???) and then use the 'show info' option. Then copy and paste the icon file and then built the app. Greetings, William 2008/8/20 Chris Sheffield [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Forgive me if this has been covered in the past, but I can't seem to find any info about it. We have a graphics artist in our company who is trying to create some program icons, and for some reason the Mac icns file just isn't working quite right. Revolution builds the standalone without errors, but the icon does not appear on the app after being built. The icns file is included in the bundle, and selecting it in the Finder does show the image correctly. What would cause the icon from not showing on the app bundle itself? Something in the way the icon was created, or is it something in Revolution? We've not had trouble with icons in the past. The artist is using a program called Axialis IconWorkshop to create both Win and Mac icons. Any help would be appreciated.

Standalone has wrong look and feel
Hi there, I just made a standalone with RR 2.7.4 on OSX 10.4.10 and the look and feel is all wrong. It looks like Mac OS 9. I never had this before. The only thing I did was that I openened some .rev files in legacy format. Is there a way to get the original look and feel (OSX) back in my standalone? greetings, William de Smet ___ 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: Standalone has wrong look and feel
Hi Sarah, Thanks! It works now.

Is there a way to get the original look and feel (OSX) back in my standalone? I remember this problem. It's to do with some Plugin files not being copied to the standalone. Go to your Revolution 2.7.4 application and look inside the package (right-click and choose Show Package Contents). Open the Contents folder and you will find a Plugins folder containing 4 support bundles. Copy this folder to the equivalent place in your own app and it should all work.
