Different window behavior in LC 6.7.6 and up

2015-10-23 Thread Tiemo Hollmann TB
Hello,

I have a stack, using as a kind of answer dialog with 3 buttons, where I
dynamically change the button labels, visibility, default, width etc.
depending on the kind of answer dialog I just need. I usually keep this
stack all time open and just show and hide it, when needed.

In my dialog control handler I make all the settings and the last statement
is: show stack foo. This worked fine all time long up to 6.5.2 on Win and OS
X. In 6.7.6 on OS X LiveCode messes up the display of these dynamic buttons
and mixes different states of them. It seems that the window always has the
buttons and properties of the previous and the current window. On Windows it
still works like ever. Now I found out that when using lock/unlock screen
and putting the show stack as the first command, before changing the button
properties, it works also on OS X correct. I can use this workaround, but I
don't know, in how many programs and handlers I have used this method of
displaying stacks and what will catch me up, when upgrading to 6.7.6.

Is this a bug to be filed or wanted behavior without upward compatibility?
Is my method how to handle this dialog stack so out of "how to do it" and it
would be a good advice to check and change all my programs? Anybody have had
similar experiences?

Thanks

Tiemo

The script editor ( and TextMate) automatically indent after

This should be possible.


Atom isn't the IDE script editor, and it isn't TextMate.  If possible, 
we should match the "usual" behaviour of Atom.  This probably includes 
properly indenting block templates. ;-)



The other one is if I press the tab key in the IDE Script Editor, all my
code is properly indented and aligned.  I would guess that's too specific
for Atom to be able to handle, but I miss that feature.


One problem here is tab is used to jump to fields in auto-completed snippets. 
It should be feasible to have some other key combo trigger a re-indent of the 
file. It may be that atom already has a standard key combo for this… In most 
IDEs this is a contextual menu option rather than a standard behavior. I image 
if you were in a team and using different editors that had slight differences 
in the re-ident behavior then it would make a real mess of you git history…



In LCB files, Edit->Lines->Auto Indent will properly indent and align 
the selection (or the whole file if nothing is selected).  This doesn't 
currently work for LiveCode Script files, probably because the 
indentation rules aren't quite right.  I've filed an issue:


https://github.com/peter-b/atom-language-livecode/issues/16

You can edit your Atom keymap to add a keybinding for Auto Indent, if 
you want.

https://atom.io/docs/latest/using-atom-basic-customization#customizing-key-bindings

I find the IDE editor's auto-indentation behaviour pretty obnoxious (it 
regularly screws up the formatting in my comments), so I'll be happy to 
*not* have it in the Atom package.

This is not supposed to replace the in-IDE script editor.  It's intended

REST API support (and OAuth too)

2015-10-23 Thread Richard Gaskin
I periodically run into people who say they can't use LC with some REST 
APIs, but I've not been able to solicit specifics about what's not 
working for them.


Most REST APIs require GET, POST, PUT, and DELETE.  I know LC supports 
GET and POST, but are PUT and DELETE supported for HTTP as they are for FTP?


Related, very few APIs are useful without OAuth support - is there a 
library in our community available under permissive license which 
provides that?

How can a button not have properties?

2015-10-23 Thread Dr. Hawkins
How can

put the properties  of btn "File" of grp "mcp_menu" of  cd 1 of stack
"old_cp"


*possibly* come up empty?

This has come up while copying stacks out of my program into a new file.  I
shed .9mb, but am having other issues.


Anyway, this comes about in a maintenance script that sets the traits of
buttons of a menu in most stacks to those of the main stack.

Yes, but

also comes up empty.

I found this when setting the properties of one button to that of another;
a line of code that got used for a year or so on every single version
change.  It bombs out of the script with only an error in the message box.

Actually, a property isn't an array. You have to put the properties 
property into a variable to make it an array.

There CAN be issues with REST API's, if the site in question implements TLS

I wonder if this is something we can fix. At the moment "the keys" is
hard-coded to allow the drag/clipboard data properties as source arrays.

There's probably a parsing ambiguity involved in having an object property
source that is not currently obvious to me.

Sending encrypted and authenticated emails

2015-10-23 Thread Bob Sneidar
Hi all. 

I just figured out how to send encrypted authenticated emails via Exchange 
servers (although the same process applies to non-Exchange systems) via a 
shell. Telnet has to be installed to do this however, and Windows 7 and up have 
the telnet client disabled by default for some reason. If I can use the sockets 
commands built into Livecode, I will attempt to do that instead. 

I am going to put together a library stack, and will probably need to beta test 
it. Anyone interested please send me a private message, and I will get a copy 
out to you at the earliest convenience. 

Bob S

Keep Selection Focus When Switching to Substack

2015-10-23 Thread Sannyasin Brahmanathaswami
I think I asked this before, 

but… is there a way to keep the selection when switching to a substack that is 
set to palette?

The goal is to have buttons that operate on selected text, but in a separate 
stack.
