Here’s the scenario:
I have a LiveCode splash screen-type application for which I’ve compiled both
Windows-32 and Windows-64-bit versions. The standalone opens a stack that

The version almost uniquely identifies every public engine build - the
buildNumber always does.
The platform together with the processor uniquely identify the target it was
built for.

As of LC 9.6.0 (dp4) there is support for detecting whether the system is in
dark or light mode and also a message that signals when the display mode
changes. This works well and we have successfully added dark mode support to
our iOS app. However, there appears to be no support for adding a lig

ScriptTracker isn’t necessarily incompatible with Levure, but if using that

behaviors which would make it unnecessary.

As to the ’how’, I planned to move into script-only stacks more anyway, and
will also test the Levure framework, and/or Script Tracker.
I’m not sure if those two are compatible though? I mean, if I use Levure

For years I've relied on the mouseColor to pick up colors for my
layouts, but lately I've found something weird:
Most of the time it works, but sometimes it return "0,0,0" over things I
know aren't black.
For example, this morning it's returning that color of a large block of

Thanks Dan!
Upon very quick implementation, I am getting empty results back. I think I
need to play around with this a little bit more but I feel you got me on
the right track.
Thanks again,

Good afternoon LC'ers,
I am loading a tab delimited file into a variable and I need to pull out
all unique names from a certain column (let's say column 10) and count how
many times that name appears in that column.
I know there has to be an easy way of doing it. Every time I try to start

Panos, as usual, this is terrific information! I am applying your advice

Not to start an argument, the statistics you quote don’t accord with my

Came over just fine. I will try to reset the use-list to my business eMail.

Just to add to the discussion that one of Graham's phones runs iOS 10.x, so
