I think the only thing worth adding is due to Unicode 7.0 and above are a different file format therefore you need to be careful you don't accidentally open the sole copy of your soon to be released killer app in 7.x. You can do all your work in 6.x.y, make a copy, open it in 7.x and see how it behaves. You can't open in 7.x, do modifications, Save, Quit and then open that stack using 6.x.y Any modifications done in a 7.x copy would need to be manually transferred back into a 6.x.y stack. ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode

Import and Export on Android
Greetings, Could anybody help me importing and exporting data on an Android phone? I can't even load the clipboard with; set the clipboardData["text"] to myData It works within my app but if I move over to Memo or Google Sheets it's just not there. Ideally I'd like to be able to write text files to a folder I create, or even better, write a file which I can send via Bluetooth or put in a Dropbox account. Any ideas? Many Thanks!

Re: [On-Rev] Is anyone else experiencing delays in email transmission from/to accounts on Pancake?
Hi Mark, please excuse, but if you haven´t used the on-rev servers in years now, then you have no experience with the new on-rev servers. And therefore it is not fair to comment about the new servers. The performance of the new servers is significant better than the original ones. The problem i reported yesterday was a temporary problem which seems to be fixed now and SMTP is working again w/o problems.

Unless you are using on-rev as your isp, and I don't think that's even possible, there's no reason to use their smtp servers and several reasons not to. > The performance of the new servers is significant better than the original > ones. Yes, this is quite true. When they work. > The problem i reported yesterday was a temporary problem which > seems to be fixed now and SMTP is working again w/o problems. And it will occur again.

Re: Can you please enlighten me on the LiveCode versions?
Richard, Well, in my ignorance and newbiness, I decided to try lc7 and haven't experienced ant problems, except for a slowdown changing bytes in a large image, to plot symbols on a map. So, I started using it for developing my project (silly me) and can't easily go back to the release version because of the many changes I've made. My deadline is January, so I thought there would be a release out by then. Anyway, I have found no issues with v7 so far. But, if there isn't a release before my deadline, I will still need to make a standalone for one particular user. That's why I asked. I still haven't tries to make a standalone in LC, so Bill William Prothero http://es.earthednet.org > On Oct 18, 2014, at 3:05 PM, Richard Gaskin > wrote: > > Earthednet-wp wrote: > > > Is it possible to build a standalone in LC 7 rc3 at this time? > > Unfortunately, I have been working in 7 for awhile and want to > > have a standalone in January. > > What problems have you encountered? > > -- > Richard Gaskin > Fourth World Systems > Software Design and Development for the Desktop, Mobile, and the Web > > ambassa...@fourthworld.comhttp://www.FourthWorld.com > > ___ > use-livecode mailing list > use-livecode@lists.runrev.com > Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription > preferences: > http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
