I just got around to building a new version of an existing project and discovered my barcode scanner didn't work. Quick check of the release notes for 8.2.0dp1 stated that mergZXing was being deprecated and to use mergAVCam instead. I can't find mergAVCam (assume mergAV is the inclusion, bu

This article is exactly why I contend that man can never travel to other planets never mind solar systems, and colonize them. The complexity of something so vast as to be able to get us there would be failing all the time, and we would have to be able to anticipate those failures, and take repai

If I had to guess I'd say that the clipboard contains CRs and LFs for each single line break, and other software is interpreting this as 2 line breaks. Setting the clipboard data ["text"] *decodes* it so to speak. When I copy code and paste it into my email program (Apple Mail) it does the doubl

Size restrictions when cloning or create a control in script

One of my students have come across what may be a bug. When trying to clone a control where width/height is less than 9, LiveCode reverts to default sizes set in the preferences for that particular control. The same happen if you try to create a new control by setting the with/height of the temp
