LC 8 speed advantages??

"LiveCode 8 is on average 3.5 times faster than LiveCode 7" I was very interested to see this claim as I had been hoping for better speeds in a text manipulation app I wrote. After building a standalone with LC 8, I ran the same test file in the new LC8 standalone as a version I compiled in LC7.

Re: ArrowKey Handler in LiveCode 8?

I assume (???) a lot of these "oversights" are the result of the 'fact' (?) that the Livecode people have gone back to square one and virtually recreated Livecode /ad novum/ rather than adding incrementally on top of Livecode 7. I don't know whether this is true. But it seems the 'kindest'

The arrowKey code has nothing to do with a change in language -- the lack of arrowKey functionality in the IDE is just an oversight on the part of LiveCode Ltd. (at least, I hope it is). Regards, Scott Rossi Creative Director Tactile Media, UX/UI Design On 5/7/16, 12:24 PM, "use-livecode on

Re: ArrowKey Handler in LiveCode 8?

If there isn't a focused object, arrowkey is supposed to be sent to the card. This isn't happening in 8. If you place an additional object (like a scrolling list field) onto the card and click it so that it has focus, and then hit the arrow keys, your object to move will behave as you expect.

Currently there is not, no. It would be quite easy to add, as the row height is completely abstracted in the code as a private variable mRowHeight, which is initialised to 21 in the OnCreate handler and never changed. So I believe all that would need to be done is to add a new property and make
