Maybe a dialog is not the way to go in those circumstances. If it's a choice between several things that are not standard yes/no choices, perhaps a menu or radio button would work better? I have always seen dialogs as a way to interrupt the normal flow of data entry, and alert the user to a cond

Hey Ya'll, I have an update routine that uses libURLSetStatusCallback to catch the callback from a libURLDownloadToFile call. On one laptop, the file downloads and everything is hunky-dory, but on another laptop. The callback recieves 'error' in its status string at about 457kb of the 754kb file.

I think i can get it working, but i'm strugling with the color-coding. My colors are all in a hex format like #FF. How do I convert that to RGB values? I can't find a command for this in the help. On Sep 5, 2012, at 11:00, Scott Rossi wrote: > Sorry, make that: > > put theArray["ramp"

Gradient settings are stored in an array property called the fillGradient. The color data is stored the "ramp" index. So to get the colors, you could script something like: put the fillGradient of graphic "myBox" into theArray put theArray["ramp"] of graphic "myBox" into theVar The variable theVa

Hi, I have a rectangle that I filled with a gradient in the inspector. Is there a way to script the colors of this gradient? I want to let the user pick a color for a color theme and have the gradient match that. Thanks! ___ use-livecode mailing list
