Right-Clicks and Double-Clicks don't work in LC8

2016-06-23 Thread MacBox
Double-clicking on a control, and Right-Clicking a control do nothing in LiveCode 8 in my user account (this has been true since the first DP release). Testing on another account does work, so I tried quitting, deleting the Livecode7.rev preference file in my account, and relaunching, but that d

Apologies, Mark, I apparently managed to leave out a critical piece of info; this is in Edit, not Run-mode. To be clear, double-clicking a control in Edit-mode does not open the Property Inspector, and Right-Clicking does not display the PopUp menu to Edit Script, show the Property Inspector, e

Although I’m not sure,of the exact culprit, I solved the issue by removing all plug-ins. I’ll have to find some time one day to go through them all to determine the offender, but in the meantime I can actually use LC8 now! Happy Days :) > On Jun 23, 2016, at 12:01, mac...@earthlink.net wrote:

Retrieving gif data from a RESTful map server

2013-04-11 Thread MacBox
I'm attempting to get a traffic gif from mapquest via their RESTful API, but I am unable to display it; everything results in the image object displaying a grey pattern. Some of the things I have tried so far: set the text of img "map" to url MapQuestsLongAPIKeyedURL set the imageData of

Thanks, Devin, but no luck there either, I'm afraid, still a grey img object. Perhaps worth adding: another of their APIs returns a jpg, and that works fine which is also why I think it's likely the mask data in the gif data stream that is causing the issue. On Apr 11, 2013, at 13:00 PM, use-li

Hi Jim, thanks, I should have mentioned the image object's size is set using the same numbers with which I make the image request. In this case I ask for a 200x400 image and set the size of my object to those dimensions before attempting to actually display the image. As I mentioned to Devin,

I felt good about this one, but no luck, Mark Not that you can test it without the API key, but here's a look at the fairly simple code I used (note the long wrapped merge line): on mouseUp set the text of img "traffic" to empty set the paintcompression to "PNG" put GetAPIKey() into tKe

Thanks to Devin, Jim, and Mark for taking a crack at this, but it seems this was not a solvable problem as desired. Thierry offered to take a look at an actual download of the gif, and he determined that the data is somehow corrupt. Although Preview and Safari seem to be able to deal with it, LC

Determining which UITextField sent a message

2011-03-23 Thread MacBox
Is it possible, to find out which UITextField sent a message? It doesn't seem that the objects include their name, or ID, as a parameter with the messages they send, so if I have 2 or more UITextFields on a card, when I trap an "inputReturnKey" message, is there any way to tell which field sent

The Target was the first thing I tried :) I may have found that the answer is "you can't." I see that in the Lesson for using the UITextField the first thing they do is check that there is only one UITextField on the card, with the comment "# ensure that only one native text input is open" Bum
