Thanks for clarifying that for me!
As far as the license stuff goes on the community version I personally
think the community is allowed to supersede LiveCode if they feel like
investing the time. It should not be able to be held back just to make
sure all of the new features are done by the
John et al,
To recap:
My ultimate goal is to get support for RunRev to provide a LiveCodeLight
download that opens stacks but hides or strips the IDE. I can’t believe this
would be difficult in any way.
In the meantime, I am trying to recreate the old Standalone app method (See
Jacquelines’
I was thinking one of the reasons people were saying not to provide a
scaled down version of the development system to do it was because
they were afraid it would interfere with the license. But since you can
do it according to some of you is proof you are allowed to automate
the process and that
If it works, the upside is that anyone can do it themselves and coach their
family into doing the two step process once on the first time install.
If it doesn’t work, we need to get a real developer to make a real app that
jumps through Apple’s hoops. And then the developer has to keep it
I may have got lost on this subject but if his goal was to make it
easy for people to open his app by doing something like using a
scaled down version of the development system then this one
step of doing it twice is a valid reason for using what he wanted
because people do not want to be bothered
I may have described it incorrectly. After re-testing here on OS 11.2.3 I
found that it required two tries. Trying to open it the first time meets with
failure. But Right clicking and choosing “Open” the second time gives a second
dialog that will allow it to open.

Thanks for sticking with me on this.
Perhaps, to smooth out this process, I should look for an uncertified app to
download to my own machine, instead of working off of her machine. Have you any
suggestions for that?

So how are you getting it on to her machine? Drag and drop across the net in
your house? Email? AirDrop?
Lets start from the beginning and sort this out, because I think you ought to
be able to do it.

Nope! Right clicking on a standalone I’m trying to share with my wife on her
iMac w OS 11.2 results in this menu: Open Attachment - Quick Look Attachment -

Then, clicking on the “Open Attachment” menu item results in the same

LiveCode seems to become unresponsive when my iMac goes to sleep and then wakes
up and logs in. Don’t have any recipe for it, but when I when I left it

LC's result will tell you only the general fact that a file I/O

Desktop works fine, every user has permissions to alter files there.

I've seen similar issues when trying to read other file types from the resources folder in an
Android standalone. Try copying the file to specialFolderPath("documents") and play it from
there. It's likely a permissions problem that I wish didn't exist.

Hello Everyone,
I was wondering if anyone has insight into the usage of

I setup a test stack that attempts to play a public domain MP3 using the
