Hi Mark,
This was announced in newsletter 126.
That's funny.
I never even looked at the front page of the newsletter, just went
straight for the articles. I wonder what else I've been missing?

I agree. Speaking from the perspective of a Mac user, it's impossible to
build an app whose ui doesn't look dated.

Speaking from the perspective of someone who likes to get work done: I feel
that too many innovations in the user interface can be a major turn-off. My
favorite CAD program uses many of the same tools that were a part of the
original MacDraw program; greatly enhanced and more powerful, but much
Wait a minute - *Livecode at Macworld*? this is great news...and now a good
reason to go...
When was the last time LIvecode were there? 2003 -
I was there - (a little booth in the developers section) and met Jacque for
the first time. Some young guy was there too... was that Kevin?

I don't disagree with you, just saying that there are users out there who,
consciously or unconsciously, judge part of the quality of an app by the
state-of-the-art-ness of its ui.
Apple and Microsoft will continue to evolve their user interface whether we
like it or not. A prime example of that
Hey Pete. Obviously you're right. I remember how much I hated System 8.0 when
it first came out. It's the old dog/new tricks thing again. Wait until my
book Death is a Myth© comes out. Will people continue to die once they
understand that they don't have to? Please no response to this on the

Maybe not 100% impossible -- an alternative is to go custom:

Hi SCott,
You're right of course, it is possible to go custom and tmcontrol no doubt
provides a good way of doing that. Just seems like there are so many
controls in OS X now that aren't present in Livecode that it would be a
huge amount of work to make custom versions of them all ( at least for
I have likened LC to a constructor set before, something like Legos. To make
special things, you need special bricks. (Your native widgets) You do not get
to make the special thing you want unless you have the special bricks you need,
or else can cheese some other bricks together in a kludge of
Hi Bob,
Everything you say if perfectly valid, and believe me, I'm only now
starting to comprehend how incomprehensible the task is that RunRev have
chosen;-) to make a multi-platform RAD. I really feel for the company when,
after enormous amounts of manpower have transformed HyperCard into
