Modal stacks acting like systemWindow property set to true
Hi, We have noticed an issue in LiveCode where if a modal stack is triggered (example: using the "answer" command) in LiveCode 8 and 9 in MacOS, but we are in another application, the modal stack will appear over the other program we are in. This does not happen with "answer file", though (the resulting window will stay underneath the other application we are in). Does anyone know why this happens and how to prevent it? This does not seem to happen in LC 6.6.3, but happens in LC 8 and 9.

I created a button with this script, clicked it and switch to Mail and Safari, but no answer dialog on top except when switching back to LC. --- on mouseUp wait 3 secs answer "YO!" end mouseUp --- > Gabe Best Klaus -- Klaus Major https://www.major-k.de kl...@major-k.de ___ 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

Sorry, I forgot an important detail: It has to be on a "send" command, like the following: *send* "answer 1" to this stack in 3 seconds Gabe On Sun, Mar 8, 2020 at 1:31 PM Klaus major-k via use-livecode < use-livecode@lists.runrev.com> wrote: > Hi Gabe, > > > Am 08.03.2020 um 19:25 schrieb Gabe J via use-livecode < > use-livecode@lists.runrev.com>: > > > > Hi, > > > > We have noticed an issue in LiveCode where if a modal stack is triggered > > (example: using the "answer" command) in LiveCode 8 and 9 in MacOS, but > we > > are in another application, the modal stack will appear over the other > > program we are in.

Re: google sheets - anybody doing anything besides mergGoogle
Mike, Very happy to share what I've got, but it's really not much - just a very thin wrapper round Google's API - and it's undocumented, mostly rough code - copied from one stack to the next, usually done in a tearing hurry! I'll try to pull something together, but please promise not to judge me... Ben On 06/03/2020 15:13, Mike Kerner via use-livecode wrote: Ben, would you send me what you've got? I was considering paying someone to wrap the entire v4 api and dropping mergGoogle, so any head start would be useful. LC wants tribute to do the work (which is a little disappointing since we financed the original external, so we sort-of hoped that it would become a thing, and it would get updated as required, but crap happens).

I'm just using the Google Sheets API directly from LiveCode - just pushing JSON back and forth. The API is limited, but what's there is very easy to work with - much better than manipulating xlsx files. I started using it to get data from clients, and then processing data and pushing it back into the sheets. I've also used on some experimental image processing, where I found that pushing the results of LiveCode functions into a google sheet immediately gave me an nice interface in which to review the data, and then I could also use the spreadsheet functions to do evaluation and testing.

Re: google sheets - anybody doing anything besides mergGoogle
it might help us get started. i'm going to probably put out an rfq to wrap the v4 rest api, because we're going to have to come to a solution, either using lc or some other tool.
