Re: some thoughts on version 9.0.0

One downer I have noticed with the advent of behaviors being in script only stacks is you lose the ability to edit them when you click on the behavior badge. If the behavior resides in a button, as before, all is well. Recently while looking into something with the data grid I noticed all the

Re: Contributing to the IDE

I also just remembered that much of the information that you may find helpful is in the contributing to docs page which you may not have read if your interest is in source contributions. https://github.com/livecode/livecode/blob/develop/docs/contributing_to_docs.md

Re: Contributing to the IDE

I will add that building from source is not that hard for Mac or Linux (have not tried Windows). I didn’t know what platform you were using which is why I referenced the Readme since it had a section with links for each one. If you run into specific issues getting things set up then we can

Re: Contributing to the IDE

Hmm… OK Geoff, sorry for being flippant and causing a rant! I must admit I don’t know anything about GitKracken. I used to use SourceTree which I found quite reasonable, however, once working for the LC team I found it too slow and hard to do some of the more complicated things like interactive

Re: Contributing to the IDE

I have to admit, this is very frustrating. I *have* read both documents referenced, and neither comes close to answering my question. I remember reading those documents, or their ancestors, when LC first went open source, and I would likely have started contributing to the IDE then except they

Re: some thoughts on version 9.0.0

Self-promotion: Navigator's script menu displays all the behaviors, and the handlers in them, of an object. The theoretical limit is 100,000 stacked behaviors, but I suspect the menu system would break before reaching that limit. You need to

I use the Project Browser heavily ... one change in 9.0.0 I definitely DO NOT like is the "new" way of indicating a "behavior" assignment on an object. What's with the little oval with a "1" in it??? I used the (previous) line counts to visually match to the "source" button line counts.. easy...

Android assistance / information?

Anyone is this community as versed in Android as Monte Goulding is in iOS? One of the beauties of LC is its cross-platform ability. The app I've written in iOS ports just fine to Android .. at least the user-interactive and data processing parts do. .. without changing one line of code (and

Ah. My problem was that my datagrids had different objects when I checked. Probably because I have been working with this project since the v6 days. BTW I replaced my datagrids which were showing non-3D column labels with fresh ones and they look fine now. I have 2 scripts that help me with

OpenLanguage: abstract syntax trees

I'm doing some research around languages for a new project. I'd like to get a firmer handle on where Livecode as a language is going, and need to learn a bit more computer science regarding compilers, abstract syntax trees and language design. So let's ask some dumb questions: 1. Is there an
