There are a couple places in System Report (About this Mac --> System Report)
that will show what apps are 32-bit: Software->Applications and
Software->Legacy Software. I like the latter because it is more complete and
covers more. For example all of the LiveCode 9 applications are 64-bit, but

i thought we are talking about ignoring the controls owned by the group. They
have real zest appeal.

As I understand it, a group will be the FIRST object to get a mouse message, IF
you click on an actual object in the group. So you can have a mouseUp handler
in the group script that handles clicks in other objects, simpy by using the
target to determine what was clicked.

While I, normally, go for Beta versions of software I am not going

One of a whole slew of reasons is that I keep getting warning

Don't ask why one would want it bigger. :D

This is a great idea, Paul. I was just thinking that might be a good solution,
especially with the addition of the (relatively) new clipsToRect property of
fields. When that property is true, a group’s boundaries do not automatically

Another easy workaround if you want a group with a transparent background
is to put a group-sized graphic behind other objects as mentioned, but set
the blendlevel of the graphic to 99. Visually it won't be seen but it will

There are clearly use cases where it makes sense for a group (such as it

I have always thought of a group as a container object, like a card, but
without a “canvas” that constitutes a part of the object. It’s always made
sense to me that a group doesn’t get mouse messages, except as they are passed
from child objects. If the group did get mouse click messages, it

I actually use that background rectangle
You are probably right. But the workaround is so simple, putting an opaque
green graphic in the group behind all the other objects, that it would be a lot
of work to implement just so we didn't have to put a graphic in a group.

I suppose as long as one knows how it works, it can be dealt with.
But there is an issue here, in that a group is not really a control, despite
what the dictionary says. A group has a rect, and one can tell if the
mouseLoc, say, is within that rect (and not necessarily within the rect of a

What would happen if you had a background image set for the group?

The existing method just passes a pointer effectively. I could be
