WordReport Help

I am having difficulty with a data tag in WordReport. I am using LC 6.1.3. How do you keep a data tag from inserting an extra line after the data tag? I have one data tag that keeps inserting an extra line before a non-data tag line. The data tag has a cr immediately after it. When a Word d

Ali, I notice that in that doc you are still directing people to use the develop-8.2 branch for submitting PRs for dictionary updates. Is that still the branch you want us to use? Devin On Apr 10, 2018, at 9:56 AM, Ali Lloyd via use-livecode mailto:use-livecode@lists.runrev.com>> wrote: I al

Re: 9.0 Crashes Constantluy

I have never seen this through 8.1.8. But all my stacks that I make standalones from are set to destroy themselves. Is that possibly the reason? Craig Newman -- Sent from: http://runtime-revolution.278305.n4.nabble.com/Revolution-User-f278306.html

Very, very queer indeed. I cracked open LiveCode 9.0 stable on Xubuntu 64-bit 18.04 and was offered the chance to upgrade to 9.0 - gm . . . . . . which I am currently doing . . . [as observed elsewhere: the in-IDE update process is glacially slow] . . . . . . cripes . . . Well; that's odd: no

Re: [OT, maybe] - configuring a Windows Installer for a Standalone

Hi Matthias I stopped trying to use InstaMaker some time ago, but I’m sorry to say I can’t remember why - maybe I was just worried that as things were not working, there were too many variables for me to cope with. The reason I’ve forgotten is that I have had a pause in my development work (the

Re: [OT, maybe] - configuring a Windows Installer for a Standalone

Hi Bob Yes, your interpretation is right. InnoSetup didn’t mind the line PrivilegesRequired line (no error flagged up) but the behaviour of the final step of the installation - launch the app - gave the same error as before. But modifying the Standalone Settings as you suggested did the trick.

Re: 9.0 Crashes Constantluy

This is the same issue I have been talking about for over a year. The standalone builder opens the *copied* stacks in memory and doesn't close them, so the next time you build for another platform you run into duplicate stack issues. This started happening around v7 I think. The workaround at pr

Re: 9.0 Crashes Constantluy

BR: I have not tried to build standalones during the last few releases, but with the latest 9.0.0, I am. I notice that when I build my standalone, it loads all of the stacks in the “Stacks” list (in standalone settings. Also, I use a splash stack approach) and leaves them in memory. So, when I w

I think he is saying that PrivilegesRequired=admin DOESN'T work, as I suspected. There is no point to running a Windows app as an administrator unless it is capable of modifying system files or altering settings only an admin can modify. By settings the UAC level to Same as Invoker (which IMHO
