Re: Image Library Disappeared in LiveCode
Hmmm, well I guess the answer's No but I'm not sure why they would show up in the App browser. In case I didn't explain things properly, I'm referring to the Image Library option on the Development menu. I had used the Import File option on the Images tab to bring in some image files under Revolution 4.0. They still show up in Rev 4.0 but aren't listed in LiveCode 4.5.

Re: Image Library Disappeared in LiveCode
Prowled around a bit more and found where the icons were stored in Rev 4.0 (I'm running on OSX). They are in the Documents/My Revolution Studio/Resources/Icon Libraries folder. Each set of icons I imported is in a rev stack named revlib followed by the name of the icon library. I'm hoping I can just move those stacks to somewhere in the new LiveCode hierarchy to have them show up. Any ideas?

A simple preferences setting and then I don't have to worry about moving files and keeping multiple copies of things. But otherwise - yes, the folder hierarchy is the same. Copy the icon libraries into LiveCode preference for User Extensions/Resources/Icon Libraries. -- -Mark Wieder mwie...@ahsoftware.net ___ 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: Image Library Disappeared in LiveCode
I just did a test run in livecode and created an image library, then searched for it from the terminal. It was created in ./Documents/My LiveCode/Resources/Icon Libraries/revLibmyTestLib.rev When I first looked the Resources tree wasn't there. After I created an image library, the tree was created and the library was placed there. Either re-create the tree then move your libraries, or create a quicky one so it does it for you then move em all over. Alternatively, do as Mark suggested and just change your preferences to point to the old location.

Sorry, my brain skipped the library part and only saw the image part of your question. Others have pointed you in the right direction. I personally do what Mark Weider suggested, and just use the preferences field to point the IDE to the older, existing Rev resource folder. It's easier that way and I don't have to duplicate everything just to run different versions of the engine. -- Jacqueline Landman Gay | jac...@hyperactivesw.com HyperActive Software | http://www.hyperactivesw.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
Re: Image Library Disappeared in LiveCode
Thanks to all for the suggestions. I pointed the LiveCode preferences to the old Revolution folder and all works fine again now. I know that was a trivial issue in the general scheme of things but sure would have been nice to have some information about it in the release notes for LiveCode; I'm now wondering how many other trivial but time-consuming problems I'm going to uncover in the coming months. I also see in the release notes that neither the user documentation nor the dictionary have been updated to reflect the LiveCode changes and also notice that many messages from LiveCode still refer to Revolution. And I see from posts on this forum that there are new datagrid library features included with LiveCode that I can't find any mention of in the release notes. Maybe there are other undocumented changes in LiveCode?
