TTS for mobile?

Very much out of my league in this, I'm sure, but... Could someone give a general outline of how to add text-to-speech functions to LC-built Android and iOS apps? Alternatively, perhaps a rough estimate about the cost of hiring someone to do this? Thanks. -- Nicolas Cueto __

Re: Vertical progress bar

There is also progress display available along slightly more complicated objects than rotated lines, for example as HTML5 standalones (also as Raspi-stacks #65-#68): = Along a free polygon http://hh.on-rev.com/html5/progressPoly2-8.0.0-dp-15X.html = Along a regular polygon (choose 2 at top right f

Re: Stopping a script

Since you're using a repeat until.. You can do repeat until (your first requirement) or not myflag where on mouseenter you set myflag to true on mouseleave you set it to false. As a quick example (not using a flag, but even so you get the idea...) repeat until the thumbpos of me >= the endvalue

Re: Controls on mobile apps - am I missing something?

Richard, Thanks for your reply (and thanks Mike for the tmControls recommendation). I'm aware that we can make our own controls; and can use some native ones. But surely the point of LiveCode being cross platform is that we shouldn't need to? A checkbox on each desktop platform takes on som

> I wonder how a 45 degree progress bar could be made? A progress bar widget with arbitrary rotation would be relatively easy, perhaps a good first widget project, should anyone be looking for such a thing. There's even some code for a progress bar widget lying around in the LiveCode GitHub repo.

Re: Stopping a script

Agreed. The send moveFigure to me in the moveFigure handler could be removed if you only want the figure to move once each time the mouse enters the object. I handed my students a stack with a similar script where a button would jump to a new loc each time the tried to press it. (The loc was ran

Re: Stopping a script

This could end up with several copies of moveFigure in pending messages. Don't resend if the flag is false. Or, cancel the message. (And you might be able to do this with moveStopped instead of send.) > On Jun 28, 2016, at 1:45 PM, Tore Nilsen wrote: > > The variables needs to be global ra

Re: Stopping a script

The variables needs to be global rather than local if the scripts are to be placed in both the card script and the script of the figure that should be moved. The first line of the card script and the first line of the script in the object should then read: global sMoveLine,sMoveSteps,sMove To

Re: Stopping a script

I am not quite sure I understand what you are trying to do , but I’ll have a go at it: /*This is what I would put into the cardscript*/ local sMoveLine,sMoveSteps,sMove on openCard put field "moveSpots" into sMoveSteps --put the coordinates into a variable for faster execution of script put

Re: Stopping a script

Maybe this is a good time to introduce the event style of programming. Focus on 'move...without waiting', and 'moveStopped' and maybe 'send'. Well, if the details allow that. If using moveStopped makes things jerky, then you might need to do something else. However, I think my grandson mad

Re: Vertical progress bar

I make weird ones out of polygons. In this case, use one for the outline and one filled polygon for the progress. Group them and have a group property do the math. > On Jun 28, 2016, at 12:46 PM, Richmond wrote: > > I wonder how a 45 degree progress bar could be made? > > R. > > On 28.06

It is even easier, just make the height of the bounding rectangle higher than the width and you will have a vertical progress bar. Tore > 28. jun. 2016 kl. 18.50 skrev rjd318 : > > Hi all - I guess it's not as easy as rotating the existing progress bar > control? Anyone know of a pre-existing t
