Widget TurnImage89_v135

While making another example stack for the TurnImage widget I missed some features and added them to the widget. So we have now in version 1.3.5: (1) The two images are now also saved with the widget. (2) The sometimes appearing stripes when animating are gone. (3) The rotation axes can

Datagridhelper iOS Scroller when using 2 Datagrids on one card

Hi, in an iOS app i need to use 2 Datagrids, lets say DG1 and DG2, on one card. The datagrids have the same location on the card and are shown and hided with a button. After adding content to DG1 i send "DGHiOs_CreateScroller" to it to create the scroller. When i switch to DG2 by setting the

Re: macOS 10.14.4 beta and LiveCode

Hi Richmond, Never depend on a beta version for anything. Especially if it is something important. Use a stable version of macOS 10.14.3 and see if you get the same result. I think the mothership gave up support for version 8 when version 9 was released, I’m not sure if the community still

Replacing GlobalNames with Global Values

Hi all, I can’t seem to come up with a succinct way of doing this: I have a mathematical expression such as gGlobal1*gGlobal2/cos(gGlobal3) = SomeValue and I want to replace the global names with the values previously saved to those Globals so as to show the entire expression with individual

Hi Rick, well it was a year or 2 back, there was a message that it would send device info and god knows what else data back to them(not just virus info), which i could not decline other then get rid of it. Maybe in the meanwhile, with the GDPR stuff, they've changed it. But it was the

Richard, Yes I noticed it was Linux, so supposedly LiveCode could run on it. I was just hoping for a confirmation from someone. If I get a Librem laptop I suppose I can answer the question myself, and thankfully cut out the middle man. Doh, I guess that would be you. ;-) (If I were to get rich

Thanks for the Heads up we're coming in on Thursday! The early bird price is $99 for the conference only. You can now buy a la cart. Add-ons include the party and the one-on-ones... If you add up all the add-ons it comes to $595.(what I did). Agreed, the website should have a more obvious

macOS 10.14.4 beta and LiveCode

LiveCode 8.1.10 Community consistently crashes on macOS 10.14.4 beta [this is probably of no interest to LiveCode central, but it is to me and I wonder what "deprecated" means in the context of the LiveCode 9.0.2 Standalone settings stack.] LC 9.0.0 seems to function without any problems, as do

FYI for anyone coming to the LiveCode conference in May... the Bay Area Maker Faire is the previous weekend at the fairgrounds in nearby San Mateo. If you're making travel plans, it's worth coming a day or two early to catch the Faire. https://makerfaire.com/bay-area/ Why is there (almost)

Re: Datagrid Table - Allow editing a field only when an other field contains data

Same here. mostly of the time i just use the dgText property to fill and read the table content of a datagrid, because i use the DG only as "normal" table, but with DG features the normal table field does not have, like easy column resizing, column reorder. This and the awesome Datagrid

Re: Datagrid Table - Allow editing a field only when an other field contains data

Yeah, when we first began to brainstorm about a real table object, some people wanted just a simple row,column object where each column, row or cell could be formatted a certain way. Others asked for more complex things. What we got then was a programmable table object that a developer could

Re: Datagrid Table - Allow editing a field only when an other field contains data

I don't know why I didn't know about this. Is it something new in the Datagrid Library? I have been getting the hilitedIndex, then the dataOfIndex, then the value of one of the keys. Sometimes all I need is one value, so this is much better! Bob S > GetDataOfIndex(pIndex, pKey)
