Pulldownmenu button bug on Windows

I have a pulldown menu button which has a menupick script and also a mouseLeave script. On a Mac, when a user brings up the menu and drags the mouse down to select a menu item (leaving the button rect but within the pulldown menu), the menupick handler is invoked, and then the mouseleave

Re: devcon 2022 recap

Hi Everyone, We should have Appli forums in the coming week or so. I’ll try to keep Appli-related responses to a minimum. Appli comes in two parts. Part 1 - Appli IDE runs as a desktop app that you can download from appli.io. Interesting note: We designed the IDE to work on desktops and

Re: Native Android input field

Yes, that would be ideal. Let's see what the Great Reimagining brings. In the chat I remember saying I couldn't use the widget but I couldn't remember why. The unexpected keyboard display was the reason. And unlike a normal LC field, you can't set it to allow copying without also allowing

Re: devcon 2022 recap

Well I downloaded the Appli app. The starting level is $45 / month, and storage is pretty sparse, which I can pay more for later. Doesn't look cost effective for me when I could just create my own web portal. Bob S > On Apr 28, 2022, at 13:58 , Richard Gaskin via use-livecode > wrote: > >

Re: devcon 2022 recap

Yes, but that's something of an "expert feature" in that intended market, much like coding externals for LC. In terms of general product flavor and intent, LC is "low code" and Appli is "no code". Given the clear mission for each, they seem good compliments. -- Richard Gaskin Fourth World

Re: devcon 2022 recap

Richard, I've been pounding the pulpit on this one for some time. Besides the default datagrid behavior, I have a whole library of handlers that I use for my datagrids that I need to access. To do this, I need my library to be inserted *between* the datagrid and the default behavior. This is

Native Android input field

In the after-party that Richard set up on the last day of the conference, the question came up whether the native Android field widget would scroll. The answer is, yes it does. There is one little glitch. If the widget is editable, and your finger lifts inside the widget after scrolling, the

Thanks! I came up with sort of the same idea yesterday evening and I am tetsting it now. I load a local html file within the browser widget with circletype.js added to the html file. A native textfield (and some extra code) writes back into the html file and then I refresh the card. A snapshot

I am stuck in a time sink. I missed just about all of the devcon as a result. Anyone want to fire off on a recap? -- On the first day, God created the heavens and the Earth On the second day, God created the oceans. On the third day, God put the animals on hold for a few hours, and did a
