Hi Mark,

Thank you for your input.

LiveCode 8 is indeed still in development stages but I don't think I explicitly suggested using it for production work? Yes, 7.0.6/6.7.6 are the latest stable releases of LiveCode but I was merely suggesting a move to 8 would be recommend especially as the plan is to drop support for 6 & 7 when 8 hits GM

Have you any vague idea when it is likely that 8 will hit GM?

Richmond.


More information on this, which I would /highly recommend/ reading can be found here-

Hopefully you will be able to join in and make LiveCode 8 great!

Kind Regards,

Neil,

LC 8 is still in dev stage. It should not be used for production work. The most recent version officially available for production work is LC 7.0.6. The latest version officially available for text-intensive projects that aren't unicode-compatible yet is 6.7.6. Please, don't recommend dev versions for production work.

Mark

Hi Tiemo,

HiDPI support was added in LiveCode 6.6RC2. You will have to upgrade to at least this version for text to look crisp although I would highly recommend starting to use LiveCode 8 ;)

Hello,

using LC 6.5.2 and the standard text font tahoma, all texts in fields and buttons look blurred on a retina display in a standalone, compared to a text program or even the finder texts. Because I don't have a retina display
myself I only can test with the feedback of a customer.

Is there anything I can do in LC? Is it the 6.5.2. engine itself? Are
different font rendered in different ways? On Windows we have OTF and TTF font, which are rendered in different ways. Is there something similar on Mac? Which is the preferred font on Mac and windows, if it is not anymore
Tahoma? Or do we just have to live with a blurred LC program?

Any hints appreciated

Tiemo
