[ANN] iOS and Android apps

Hi, Apple just approved two updates of my apps: READ is now universal (one executable for iPhone and iPad). It has also some minor updates in the way it displays text. The app can be downloaded here: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/read/id433493823?ls=1&mt=8 For the Dutch readers on the list:

How to detect zoombox click

I want to detect when a user clicks the zoombox (green light on a Mac) and do something similar to iTunes where if you click the zoombox the program doesn't just resize itself but goes into a different mode. The only message I see is a resizeStack message but that happens if the user resizes th

Floating City and K12 Game Theory Model...

Thanks Scott and Brent...I'll look at both of your solutions regarding large images and groups... FWIW, I've been looking at how an online game called The Floating City (http://www.floatingcity.com was put together...and how some of the principle game activities could be incorporated into a

Re: repeat with i=

Thanks for all the suggestions. I think I'll go with: on mouseUp local theNums put "1,2,3,4,5,6" into theNums sort items of theNums numeric by random(100) repeat with i = 1 to 6 do "whatever" & item i of theNums end repeat end mouseUp This is probably erroneous but possibl

Re: [OT] calling non-numbered Unicode glyphs

Oh darn, that first sentence let me rewrite that. I think that Fontographer will show you the UTF8 values of the glyphs. You can take those values and convert them to binary using the binaryEncode function. Convert the binary value to UTF16. -- Good night, Mark Schonewille Economy-x-Talk

Hi Richmond, I think that Fontographer will show you the UTF8 values of the font values. You can take those values and convert them to binary using the binaryEncode function. Convert the binary value to UTF8. It is probably easier to use Mac OS X's Character Viewer. This palette will allowyou

Re: Viewing Large Images Using Groups and Adding Buttons to the Map Group?

I actually did this on iOS recently. Incidentally, I scrapped the grouped map/button concept in favor of an HTML implementation (which, depending on your application, could be a good idea). But, if you're interested in using buttons and an image in a grouped implementation, I used two groups. O

Viewing Large Images Using Groups and Adding Buttons to the Map Group?

Hi All! I have a few questions about large images, buttons and groups I have a card that I want to place a large map image on. I know I can put it into a group, size the group, and turn the scroll bars on to navigate the large image. Is it possible to navigate map in a group with just

[OT] calling non-numbered Unicode glyphs

Normally if one wants to put a unicode char into a field one does something like this: set the unicodeText of fld "MyBigFatUnicodeTextFld" to numToChat(2327) & numToChar(9745) or set the unicodeText of fld "MyBigFatUnicodeTextFld" to the unicodeText of fld "MyBigFatUnicodeTextFld" & numToCha

How/When are behavior references resolved?

I'm having a problem with behaviors not being resolved in my application stack. I have two stack files, lets call them library.livecode and application.livecode. The script of the main stack of library.livecode has handlers that I use in application.livecode by issuing a "start using" command. l

Nested behaviors

I'm not sure if I should expect this to work or not, but it doesn't! I have a custom column behavior for a datagrid column that contains an option menu. The option menu has a behavior set for it. In the custom column behavior FillInData handler, I dispatch a message to the option menu which shou
