Running standalone on 64 bit Linux

Hello everyone, I am having some very weird, inconsistent and difficult to track problems running a LiveCode standalone on a 64 bit Linux machine with a 32 bit compatibility layer. As far a I can tell, the wierdness is associated with tricky things like regular expressions and getting "the v

Then stacks are the only other object in Livecode that can live outside the card rect. What is the downside of using stacks? They are just another object in memory once loaded - reposition, hide and show?. (sorry - haven't tried this yet) On 1 June 2011 13:57, Bill Vlahos wrote: > Stephen, > >

Is there a way to put a graphic into a tool tip instead of text? I want to mouse over an icon and show a screen shot that is potentially larger than my stack but I want it to appear and disappear like a tool tip does. Is there a way to do this without making a separate substack and showing/hidi
