Possible Bug

2010-05-25 Thread LunchnMeets
Hi Everyone,

They say when you make something idiot proof all you get are smarter 
idiots. Here's the idiotic thing I did.

I was trying to add a Control-V shortcut to a menuItem in the menu 
manager. Instead of using Shift-V to insert the V I used Command-V it 
added 
the code that was on my clipboard to the menu.

Was that a fluke or did I find a bug?

Another DataGrid Question

2010-05-15 Thread LunchnMeets
Hi Everyone

First of all thanks to Zryip for the answer to my last grid question. Now 
that problem is solved, but I have another.

I have a dataGrid with 8 columns and 1000 rows. Knowing the data of a line 
of column 2, I need to retrieve the data of column 1 of that line. I don't 
want to change anything in the dataGrid while doing this. How is this best 
accomplished? If it helps Column 1 is titled Securities and column 2 is titled 
Symbol.

Thanks in advance for your continued assistance.

DataGrid - move Scrollbar by script

2010-05-13 Thread LunchnMeets
Hi everyone,

There are a lot of uses for datagrids. I'm having a little trouble fully 
getting into the operation of them though.

How can I move the vertical scrollbar from within a script? What I have is 
an alphabetical list as one of the datagrid columns. I want to type a 
character and have the grid scroll so that the first listing shown is the first 
one with that character. It's probably a keyDown handler but that's as far as 
I got. I'm sure it's possible, but I can't figure it out. Your help is 
appreciated very much. Many times I don't know how I manage without this list 
as 
a resource.

Hi Jacque
That's an interesting comment. I've noticed that sometimes while editing groups 
revolution hangs up and I have to force quit to get working again. At least it

I Can't change field layers

2010-04-27 Thread LunchnMeets
Hi everyone,

I have three problems:

1) The button and field level numbers are locked within a group. So I can't 
rearrange them.

2) When I click on a group it moves with my cursor until I click again. 
That's obviously not what I wanted.

3) When I click on Select Group it doesn't allow me to click on 
individual fields. I can select the fields from within the inspector, but I 
shouldn't 
have to do that.

It used to be when I rebooted, these problems would go away but not this 
time. Any advise the group can give me is very appreciated.

Since these problems are only in two stacks, could they be corrupted?

There is a lot of things to get familiar with concerning datagrids, that's

Datagrid Question

Hi Everyone,

I'm enjoying getting into this datagrid thing. So far working with it is 
far better than the way I used to do some things. Now my question is this. 
When I click on a datagrid the line is hilited, that's good. But, how do I 
unhilite that line?

Keep up the good work with adding new features. It would be wonderful if 
datagrids didn't force shared text though.

Problem FINALLY solved

2007-05-28 Thread LunchnMeets
Hi again everyone,

I truly appreciate all your patience in putting up with my recent batch of 
emails. My problem was solved by removing the conflict of toplevel and modal. I 
also discovered modal has to be the last command. My new script:

on mouseUp
  go stack Test
  show stack Test
  modal stack Test
  beep
end mouseUp

seems to work fine so far at least.

Ask Answer

2007-05-27 Thread LunchnMeets
Hi everyone,

I put the following script in the button of another stack.

on mouseUp
 show stack Test
 modeless stack Test
 toplevel stack Test
 beep
end mouseUp

I thought the beep shouldn’t sound in this case, but it does. I’m trying to 
make my own custom ask and answer dialog boxes in a separate stack. I want the 
beep to sound after I’m finished with stack “Test”. Obviously, I’m going 
about this wrong.

I never leave the IDE and I’m on Mac OSX.

Re: How to dismiss a modal dialog (was: Re: Ask Answer)

2007-05-27 Thread LunchnMeets
Hi again everyone,

OK, so I’ve created a modal stack that ignores everything else. That’s good. 
Now how do I transfer data from that modal stack to the continuing script 
that opened the modal stack? Maybe dialogData has something to do with that but 
I 
don’t understand that command.

Hi Everyone,

I’m trying to create my own ask and answer dialog boxes. In order to do that 
I must be able to suspend a script awaiting my custom dialog box input. Then I 
want to continue the same script. I tried using the wait command, but that won
’t allow any input while waiting. All suggestions are appreciated.

How do I make the top stack ignore the others?

2007-05-21 Thread LunchnMeets
Hi Everyone,

I want to open a smaller sized stack on top of a larger one. This stack needs 
to be dominant so that clicks to the stacks showing underneath are ignored. 
Is there a way to accomplish this?

What I’m trying to accomplish is making a dialog box instead of using the 
built in ask and answer commands.

With that in mind, I also need to know how to make a script delay its 
execution for the input to this custom dialog box.

Old bug still in Rev 2.8 OSX Chapter 5

 This is all pretty interesting. Could everyone who is having the problem
 post any plugins they are using? Not the ones that ship with Rev, but
 any others you've added to your plugins folder? That might give us a clue.
 
 If anyone can think of any other thing that might be interfering with
 the message hierarchy, post that too. It's a good puzzle and together
 maybe we can figure it out.
 

Jacque,

This happened on a freshly installed rev 2.7.4 as well as o freshly installed 
rev 2.8 for Mac OSX. I don’t use any plugins or custom properties. These 
handlers (OpenStack, OpenCard, preOpenCard, preOpenStack, startUp) are NOT seen 
if 
you open rev from the mac desktop by double clicking on a stack. They work 
fine if you open rev first and then open the stack though. I’m talking about 
being in the IDE and this isn’t a standalone.

Hi again everyone,

Thanks for your input, but my problem is still there. If I double click a 
stack in the finder to open it with Revolution not open already, the stack will 
not see any of the following handlers: on openStack, on openCard, on startup, 
on preOpenStack or on preOpenCard. I guess the problem is that I never plan to 
leave the IDE and I never plan to use my creations on anything besides 
Macintoshes.

On rev versions prior to 2.7.4 this wasn’t a problem by the way. Something to 
think about.

Since I’m on Mac OSX the use of the .rev stack name suffix is optional. If I

Old bug still in Rev 2.8 :(

2007-02-20 Thread LunchnMeets
Hi everyone,

I downloaded v 2.8 for the Mac OS. So far the most glaring problem I had with 
the previous version still wasn’t addressed. That is, I have to open a stack 
after opening Revolution rather than opening Revolution by opening a stack. 
The reason is if I don’t, Revolution doesn’t see the openStack handler. I’m 
disappointed that wasn’t fixed.

 I have just moved to RR 2.7 from 2.0 and have discovered a problem
 with text selection. Apologies if this has been covered before but I
 can't find a discussion of it in the archives. A stack that worked
 fine before now has a problem where the text of the main field is all
 selected even though the script selects only one line. I can't
 unselect either. Is there a way of deselecting all the text in a
 field before selecting the required line?
 
 Thanks,
 
 

You could also set the hilitedLine of me to 0 the 0 being zero and the 
handler would be in the script of a field.

Search Script

2006-03-18 Thread LunchnMeets
Hi Everyone,

Has anyone made the RR version of handler that was SearchScript in 
HyperCard? I tried to convert it, but my script opened up all the script 
windows at 
the same time. That was a royal pain. Maybe you could just tell me how to open 
a 
script, edit it and then go on to the next script window that has a search 
string.

Printing Problem

2006-03-14 Thread LunchnMeets
Hi Everyone,

When I print a card then show and/or hide some field or group and then print 
again it doesn't completely flush the old image. The problem seems to be that 
the borders of the fields don't show as they should. Thanks in advance for 
your continuing help for this newbie.

Re: lockScreen Property Question

2006-03-07 Thread LunchnMeets
Hi Ruben,

I share your pain. This is one of the few instances where HyperCard has it 
all over revolution. You can get around this somewhat in two ways.

1) You can hide any stack you don't want to see before you go to them for an 
intermediate process. The problem with that is you have to remember to show 
them before actually displaying that stack.

2) Unlike HyperCard you can refer to a field without going to that stack. For 
example:

put field fieldName of stack stackName into field fieldName of this 
stack

is OK in Revolution, but not HyperCard.

Globals and...

2006-03-07 Thread LunchnMeets
Hi Everyone,

OK so you can initiate globals for an object outside of a handler. That's 
cool if you have more than one handler for an object. Is there anything else I 
can do outside of a handler that will apply to all handlers for an object?

Re: ClickLine Solved

2006-02-07 Thread LunchnMeets
Hi Everyone,

Thanks for your suggestions. I solved the problem by putting a space 
character in the last possible line of the field. This way all the lines would 
return 
the expected clickLine.

ClickLine

2006-02-06 Thread LunchnMeets
Hi Everyone,

Apparently the clickLine returns empty if a line below the last line of a 
field is clicked. Is there a way to determine which line was clicked on in this 
case?

I'm using v2.6.1 on Mac OSX.

1) How do I delete the rev logo from ask and answer dialog boxes?

2) On ask dialog boxes how do I insert the cursor at the end of my default

When I use:

Also how do I change the rev icon to a warning icon or no icon?

Tint the background of a field.

Hi Everyone,

This is probably a simple question. But, this newbie can't figure out how to 
print a field with a 5 or 10% gray tint behind the type of a field. Thanks in

ClickText problem

Hi everyone,

When I use clickText in HyperCard I get the word I clicked on. When I use 
it in Revolution I'm getting the full line. How do I get only the word I click 
on?

ClickText problem clarified

2005-12-18 Thread LunchnMeets
Hi everyone,

I'll be a little more specific. One of the lines of a field is First / 
Second / Third depending on which word is clicked on I want different things 
to 
happen. I could specify each word in HyperCard with clickText, but apparently 
not in Revolution. I have the field set to sharedText. If I grouped the line 
inadvertently, how to I ungroup the line. Alternatively can I set up a single 
word link to click on?

This is an interesting thread. As long as we're talking about this...

Can menuitems be addressed by name rather than number? I don't always have 
the items in the same position.
