Re: Transparent Images in LC

Hi Paul, I just took one of my old transparent .png images that I used to use a couple of years ago and imported it as a control into an LC 8.1.3 stack. It worked just fine. I think I might have created it with “Graphic Converter” for Mac. If you put one of your images into a “DropBox”

I finally got around to playing with tsNet, but I can't find docs, just sparse Dict entries. I'd like to test uploading a file via SFTP and also FTPS, synchronous preferred in this case. After hunting around via Google I manage to turn up this stack from a blog post:

Without knowing exactly what you're trying to accomplish, one way is to display only a few rows of buttons beyond what will fit comfortably on a screen, and when scrolling takes place, "recycle" the rows around to the end (or beginning) with new glyphs applied. Assuming all the characters are

I'd create maybe 200 buttons, and change their labels, positions and meanings whenever the vscroll of the menu changes. Something (very vaguely) like on scrollHasChanged put the vScroll of grp "sectionMenu" into temp put temp div 23 into startLine repeat with i = 1 to 200 put

I call this a bug, would you? If the scaleFactor of stack “myStack” is set to 2, then within(stack “myStack”,the screenMouseLoc) only returns true if the mouse is within the rect of stack “myStack” when it’s scaleFactor is set to 1. Hope I explained that logically. Mac 10.12.2, LC 9.0.0 dp

Well, I got my Android test deployment working again, but the app completely dies on the phone now and even if I set a break point on the preopencard of the init script, it will not fire in the debugger. I note something peculiar: If I open myApp.livecode stack: which has stack files set and

Transparent Images in LC

NOTE: I am using LC 6.7.11 for an update to a legacy app. I was trying to import (as a control) a transparent PNG (i.e. the "white" parts allow whatever is underneath to show through) and instead of transparancy, I get the slashed background lines transparent PNG are often displayed with.

Hi Brahmanathaswami, This probably means that LC does not find the android SDK. Go to LC Preferences -> Mobile Support and make sure the path to android SDK is set and valid. Best Panos On 1 Apr 2017 06:25, "Sannyasin Brahmanathaswami via use-livecode" < use-livecode@lists.runrev.com> wrote:
