program crash on export snapshot

2012-10-26 Thread Tiemo Hollmann TB
Hi all, I have a customer with a MacBook Pro, OSX 10.6.8, where my program crashes when creating a snapshot from a video. The same program runs fine at all other customers, so I think it has to be something on this specific Mac. I couldn't debug it at the customer, but I assume the relevant two st

Hi, I have got the crash logs from the console of my customer, but I am not able to find any useful hints in there. I am not very deep into Macs... Can anybody perhaps have a look into it and tell me, if you find any hint, what could cause the crash and what I could look for on the customers comput

Sorry if anybody reacted to this! I finally found the "iphoneUseDeviceResolution true" function, and now it looks just like I meant it to look! But the fact that I asked really underscores how behind I am on the learning curve of using liveCode for iDevices! So my app looks very nice indeed, b

Retina scale factor versus display metrics

2012-10-26 Thread Thomas McGrath III
I don't have any Android devices to test with and I am wondering how to deal with Retina scale factor versus display metrics for Android development. I thought that display metrics where just the categories that different physically sized Android devices fit into and not the actual doubling of

Richard, Thanks for the reply. But that does not really answer the question of wether the new mobilePixelDensity is actually based on pixel doubling (halving, tripling, whatever) or just of categorized screen sizes as my searches on the internet seems to be saying. In other words is the new mo

Hi Richard, Reading the QCC report you submitted for this, I see comments that this should be available for the desktop as well as mobile devices, but "mobilePixelDensity" implies that it is iOS and Android only. Where does that leave us as far as the newer Macs with Retina displays? Pete lcSQL So

I'm yet to play with it but I believe it will just return an approximation into the general density groups (closest .25). Also 1 = 160 on android, 163 on iPhone/iPad mini and 132 on iPad. I said as much on the feature request when I read Marks implementation notes but then it was closed without
