Re: Rev 4 beta status
Hi Len, Now TWO weeks and not a peep. Any kind of update on the progress? For future reference: I would have been far happier getting a "surprise" email letting me know a beta was available than getting told one would be available and then not seeing it.

OK, is there a way to get a menubar to work with command keys when using the menuHistory instead of menuPick?

It is now of the form: [ '/' [ ] [ '|' ] ] Note that the is optional as is the however, if you want an item with a tag but without the accelerator you need: '/' '|' The must only be composed of characters from the ASCII character set. If a menu item has a then it is the tag string that is passed to menuPick rather than the . This is useful for localization of menu items as you don't need to change the menuPick handler for each language supported. The following tags should be used to label the standard edit menu items to enable them to be controlled by the system dialogs on Mac OS X (e.g. answer file, ask file etc.): undo, redo, cut, copy, paste, clear, select all, preferences Note: You should not mix the use of tags and no tags in Unicode menus. Doing so will cause empty values for all unicode items without tags. # If you are still on Rev <= 3.0 I have no idea, sorry.

Re: internal audioclips -> file on hd?
Correction!
Hi all,
can someone give me a hint if and how one can "export" imported
audioclips from a stack back to a file?
I already tried the suggestion of Mark Schoneville in the RR forum:
...
put the text of ac "xyz.aif" into tVar
put tVar into url("binfile:...")
...
but that only resulted in a small file with the content "1"???
That did not produce a file but gave me an error:
Object does not have this property
...
put ac "xyz.aif" into url("binfile:...")
...
also does not work.
This resulted in a text file with the content "1"
Best

Re: Character encoding is driving me insane
Hejsan Fredrik, Hi there, I'm writing a small application that's supposed to keep track of different tasks for certain people at work. I'm using a datagrid to present the data and simple text files for storage. The problem is that I tend to lose the characters åäö and ÅÄÖ (which we use a lot here in Sweden). At first I simply loaded a tab-delimited file into the dgText of the datagrid but that didn't work. After searching around on the forums/mailing list I found some code for handling UTF-encoded text and thus I changed the "Open file"- code to something like this: set the unicodetext of fld "importedData" of card "Data" to uniencode(tFile,"UTF8") put the fld "importedData" of card "Data" into tData And then I set the dgText to tData. This worked fine until I started messing around with making some columns into presenting calculated values only. Since I didn't need to save the data in those columns to any file I started using the dgData-property to only save & load specific fields instead. The problem is that now I lose my special characters. They simply do not appear in the text. They're still there in the text file, just not in the "importedData"-field and thus neither in the datagrid. I have no idea why my first solution suddenly stopped working. The text file is in the "UTF-8"-format. Does anyone out there have any good ideas of how to work with text with special characters? Or perhaps you can point me toward a previous thread with useful info. Right now I know nothing about character encoding except that they make my life more difficult.. sigh.

The issue is with the repeat loop in the dgProp setprop for "column widths". Currently it says: repeat for each item theColumn in the dgProps["columns"] of me It should read as follows since columns are line delimited: repeat for each line theColumn in the dgProps["columns"] of me If you make the change it should start working. Great, will do, thanks! 2 minutes later: Done and works, way cl :-) 4.

The code loops through the actual columns and assigns the item in the list you provide to the width of that column. If you supply to few integers then an error will occur. If you supply too many then the extras will be ignored. OK, but maybe you could implement the same behavior as in the "tabstops" in Rev? This way the last "column witdh" would be "repeated" if we supply to few items? Know what I mean? That would be very nice :-) Regards, -- Trevor DeVore Blue Mango Learning Systems ScreenSteps: http://www.screensteps.com Developer Resources: http://revolution.bluemangolearning.com Best Klaus -- Klaus Major http://www.major.on-rev.com kl...@major.on-rev.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
DataGrid: setting dgProps["column widths"]
Hi Trevor,
using 3.5 gm 2:
From the docs:
...
column widths
- Allows you to set all column widths at once. Line delimited list of
integers.
...
A couple of qustions:
1.
I checked the 10,000,000 lines of script of btn "DataGrid" in your
library :-)
and it looks like this should be a COMMA separated list, right?
Just like:
..
put the dgProps["column widths"] of grp "DataGrid"
..
-> 120,100,110,50 = COMMA separated list, should be consistent I think.
2.
...
set the dgProps["column widths"] of grp "DataGrid" to "100,100,100,100"
## Given there are 4 columns in the datagrid
...
But that does not work, the columns do not resize.
3.
...
set the dgProps["column widths"] of grp "DataGrid" to ("100" & CR &
"100" & CR & "100" & CR & "100")
## Given there are 4 columns in the datagrid
...
Doesn't work either, but if my assumption 1 is correct, it should at
least give an error?!
4.
What will (should) happen if we supply too few/many items in the list
like:
...
set the dgProps["column widths"] of grp "DataGrid" to "100,100"
## Given there are more or less than 2 columns in the datagrid
...
Best
Klaus

New datagrid library
Hi all, I somehow cannot find the url to the new version of the dg library, that Trevor posted here on the list yesterday, could someone plaese re-post it? Thanks!

Good idea, said and done! I added some lines to the "mouseup" handler in the btn "DataGrid" answer "Mouse was clicked" answer sDeselectOnMouseUp and the mouseclick gets to the lib but the local variable "sDeselectOnMouseUp" is empty at that point so the selection will not change(?). It is okay if sDeselectOnMouseUp is empty. That var is set in dgMouseDown in order to select the clicked on row if you have multiple lines selected. Ah, I knew it wasn't that easy... But mouseUp is getting called so why do you think that mouseUp starts working? Is it just that lines stop being selected? This is the case, the grid gets "mouseup" but the "clicekd" line does not get selected. If that is the case then the problem is in mouseDown most likely. Can you add a log for that as well. Yes, will do tomorrow at work, where I have all these files. But my other observation is also correct, this only happens after I set the custom behavior AND the stack with the grid is a substack, honestly :-) All is fine if that stack is a mainstack, makes no sense, but that's the way it is.

Based on your bug report it appears that you are building a distribution and then afterwards the mouseup message stops working. No, sorry for the confusion, this also happens in the IDE. We did not make a distribution/standalone yet. This has to work first ;-) It sounds likes there may be a behavior bug of some sort.
