into use on init of the app
that a handler in

Then in a top level binary stack name… e.g.

*none* of them respond to cmd-shift-T to make tabbed windows… the only

Hi All,
I’m attempting to create a simple secure web browser iOS app for some teachers.
I want to prevent any links within an approved site (i.e.
“www.approvedsite.com") that link out to others sites from launching. For
example, if the "www.approvedsite.com" has a link out to Youtube.com, I wan

I'm also sticking with LC 8.1. I thought there was a stable version of
9 but evidently not yet.

I saw some instability in LC 9 (crashing), so I’m sticking with 8 until those

Thanks Peter - I'll look into 9.0 and see how it works. I can't imagine
an improvement in 8.x is not retained in 9.x.
To your point, I'm assuming you can't use:
wait until sound() = "done" with messages
in order to avoid playing sounds simultaneously. Right?

Yes - 7.7.9. I re-installed Quicktime and got it working, playing
sounds simultaneously, but I'm still somewhat apprehensive since
Quicktime has been discontinued for so long now.
Do you know of anything else Peter or are we pretty much resigned to
Quicktime on the desktop for simultaneous so
You do have QuickTime installed on your Windows machine? …if you are trying to
play a QT file.

I've lo0oked into playing multiple audio files simultaneously, for
Windows and Mac desktops, and come up with nothing but issues. Using a
player object on my Windows 8.1 system, LC 7.1.1, I get an error of

latency issues as
Actually, I really appreciate Adobe Illustrator's object properties dialog.
Sometimes I LIKE being able to define an object's dimensions by typing in
coordinates. CAD designers do this all the time. Of course, advanced features
like snap to point make this mostly obsolete, but if you need a wall

Alex,
before you waste valuable time:
The formattedRect can NOT be used in LC 7/8/9, because of the
(2^15 div 2)-limit for coordinates is active for that.
So the algorithm works in LC 6.7.11, but the results are sadly
'extremely' wrong in LC 7/8/9:
Crossing the 'limit' with a vertical coordinate j
Thanks for the quick answer :)

Hello,
LC 8.1.3: getting the specialFolderPath("resources") comes on Mac & Win
without trailing slash.
On Win I also don't get a trailing slash in a standalone.
BUT in a MacOS 10.12 standalone I get a trailing slash!
Is this a wanted "feature" which I have to script around, or is this a bug I
