I recently started working with a file from 6.7.11 in 8.1.1. Having carefully
set the file format preservation, so that I can continue to work with it back

Hi Richard
When I was working on lcVCS we discussed this on the engine forums and agreed
that the properties -> “name” should be empty instead of this abbreviated id.

helpful for the short name to be returned as an

Hi Richmond,
I'll give you an 'improperly formulated' explanation of my own experience
with datagrids. They are more complicated to use (at first). So most of

Once you make it right, it's so easy. Without a starting slash the relative
path works fine, like you said it: "resources/myImage.png"
Sometime you don't see the obvious...

As far as I see it, you can't set the filename of an image in the property

+1 In the development environment this function returns the path to the folder
where your stack resides.
I am still struggling putting this code together correctly. Does anybody
have any working examples of downloading a single file, via sftp protocol?
I think I can work backwards from there.

You should probably use the specialFolderPath(“resources”) to set the relative

Richard.
If I make a new control, and immediately ask for its name, or short name, I
have always gotten the default name in the inspector, which is something
like:
field "field"
or
button "button".
Never empty.

And I guess that is part of the reasoning for the internet date. You can be
