Re: Unicode issues ad infinitum

Hi Lynn, How about doing it as a slide show in Rev? That way you can fiddle with the timing and add supporting text. That's easy. Create a series of cards and then click Filethe Options "Image File, Snapshot, etc." from each card. HTH, Joe Wilkins On Sep 15, 2008, at 9:46 PM, Lynn Saults

Re: Getting filename of launcher app?

Devin, get the open stacks, one of them should be your launcher, check the effective filename of the LAUNCHER not launched stack... I think that should get you going. Andre On Tue, Sep 16, 2008 at 12:12 AM, Devin Asay <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > This one's really got me stumped. Or I'm losing

Getting filename of launcher app?

This one's really got me stumped. Or I'm losing my mind. Or both. Mac OS X 10.5.4. Intel iMac. Rev. 3.0gm-2 I'm using a launcher app that resides on my local drive to launch a server-based stack. I want to be able to store files in the App bundle of the launcher app from a stack accessed fro

Re: Rev not Cocoa-enough??

Judy, yes and no... Rev applications can't access some stuff that Cocoa applications can. For example, our field object is not the cocoa framework field object, we can't have those nice toolbars either... We can't tap the full cocoalicious things because we'd loose the cross platorm features. The

Hi, I was just reviewing comments on the macNN Rev thread and came upon this one: "No cross-platform framework can create an app on the Mac that feels as native or as usable as a Cocoa app, and the lack of attention to detail shows" What? Am I missing something? I had thought that Rev made dir

Re: Arrays: new and old keys, ii

To be fair, lots of languages use hash tables for arrays. And one could argue that associative arrays are not the data structure of choice for storing ordered data. I agree that some of this stuff would be useful, but if you really get down to it, "true arrays" often leave tasks like sortin

Re: Arrays: new and old keys, ii

One point of speculation which would make a huge difference is how Rev is actually implementing the arrays. If it is truly a hash table, providing any sort of in-order traversal of the array elements won't be happening any time soon. A hash table is an unordered piece of data, and so to provid
