Make substack a mainstack?

Using LC 8.1, if I get the stack properties for a sub-stack, I can no longer set the substacks mainStack property to be itself - i.e. making it an independent stack. This used to be possible in previous versions. Is this a bug or is there another method of doing it these days? cheers Alan _

Re: reloading iOS provisioning profiles etc

Ben, I feel your pain. I don't load a new app to my iPhone very often, but when I do, I plan an entire day stumbling around in the forest of updates, new versions, certificates, provisioning, etc, etc. There is a tutorial on the lessons and it worked the first time for me. But after that it was

reloading iOS provisioning profiles etc

After adding a new device to my registered set in my Apple developer account, how can I get LC to recognise it? I go through this every now and then, conduct a lot of superstitious rituals, eventually I get there.. but I never know how. I've launched Xcode, used it to build an app to the devi

"\n" appearing in Unicode

I have inserted quotes into a MySQL database. I thought I was careful to be sure it was all Unicode encoded. We ported the content over SQLite for use in an mobile app. I can fetch the quotes and then run put textDecode ( aSelectedQuotes[tNo]["content"], UTF8) into sQuote Diacritical marks a

Re: "Command" as control structure?

I don't think there is a difference, though I use command for my handlers and on for rev built ins (on mouseup, on keydown etc). Just another way to aid my recognition of things in my scripts. On Sun, Sep 25, 2016 at 2:20 PM, Peter Bogdanoff wrote: > I see that “command” is a synonym of “on” in

"Command" as control structure?

I see that “command” is a synonym of “on” in LC script. Is using “command” rather than “on” a purely style preference? I see in the old LiveCode dictionary: The command synonym, along with the ability to declare private handlers was added in LiveCode 2.8.1 Why? Is this something to do w

Re: [ ANN ] Release 8.1.1 RC-1

Hi Henry, Interesting. I did not update my existing Xcode version from 7.3 -> 8. I just downloaded Xcode 8 from the Apple downloads page, and the iOS 10 sim was included by default. *Should I reports as a bug that LC crashed when trying to launch an app in the simulator because there was no ap

Thanks Richard & Alan for the response. It looks like a plugin is responsible for this strange behaviour... Richard - great and comprehensive background information on some of the things going on in LiveCode 'under the hood'. My primary use of the IDE is to create utilities and prototypes - so

Re: How to stop LoveCode running in Edit mode

Keith Are you, by any chance, using BVG Docu as your Dictionary substitute? Or is it installed in your Plugins? If so, remove it from your 8.1 set of plugins, as it's not compatible and lead to this sort of behaviour (for me, at least), if I'm understanding your problem correctly. Alternative

Re: The Achilles heel of Android and iOS

Of the two skills, engineering and sales, it's the sales skill that's more generally useful (provided there are other humans around). If an engineer does good engineering they STILL have to find a salesman. If a salesman does good sales they don't necessarily even need a real product or service a

Re: Detect lat/long Intersections

You can try using within(object, point) if you define an object using the points on the boundary of your detection area. If your area is easy to define then you can just test it. For example, if it's a circle then you only need to measure the distance between the bus's location and the center of t
