I've had gremlins like this in the past where certain functions run
before the "interior" expression.
Or put another way: what is inside parentheses is not always evaluated
as expected when running inside a function request. I have never been
able to determine a recipe, but my solutio

Hi John,
instead of decimals use true hex (has 15 "digits")
OR, very effective, "dadaNumbers"
(my youngest daughter named this)
you may use e.g. n=48 or n=65
function dec2dada dc,n
return numToByte(n+dc)
end dec2dada
function dada2dec hx,n
return byteToNum(hx)-n
end dada2dec

I have 15 buttons on a card. They are each named Button 1, Button 2, Button 3,

Let us argue constructively instead insisting on "rules". Currently wonderful

Hi Jaque.
I assume you're using a background grp. If so I have used the "focusOut"
message to fire some action in the self-contained grp when the card changes.
The "focusIn" message is not received by the group on crad change. This is
kind of counter intuitive imho but it works.
All the best

Hi Richard,
Just tried it with an arithmetic expression and it generated the same
error, with or without parens.
I'll say again, since it seems to be causing some confusion, the parens
aren't really the issue other than they should force the expression between
them to be evaluated before the rest

I have a list of items such as in example 1 shown below.
I want to record how many are the same but only the same by char 1 to 2 and
char 6 to 7 then place that number of duplicates after each line, as in the

Any ideas for doing this?
Thanks,

Hi Lyn,
As I understand it, Widgets will exist inside the stack window, just
like controls. They are drawn in what RunRev calls a canvas, in the same
layer as current controls. This might impose some limitations on what is
possible.

solely via the new "lower-level" LiveCode)?
