Hi,
Can LiveCode communicate with Bluetooth devices?
Is there a way that this can be done?
A few Bluetooth devices with bad interface issues could be rewritten
innLiveCode but I am clueless how that might occur.

Frankly, I would prefer the ide tools palette and the Devo tools palette
overlap at will. One or the other can be in front, overlapped or not. I
generally only use the ide tools when creating UI objects, so most of the time
it’s invisible.
Currently, to get the Devo palette to go as far left a

More interestingly, when you see the windowBoundingRect altered by the
placement of the IDE's tool palette, does a maximized window respect the

In the original Root Loops code, I assume it should be a pure comparison
of i (binary, such as +5.00...) with sQty (binary, +1234567.00...) so

FWIW...
I see the same thing on Mac where Devolution will not move past the tool
palette.
One possible solution would be to add the rect of Devolution to the prefs and
restore regardless of the bounding rect. This would allow the tool palette to
be positioned over Devolution since you probably

P.S. - I was careful about binary optimization for the original Root

calculations) didn't have that.
Doing so makes hardly any difference for LC6, but it do

That's my guess as well.

It’s easy enough to write a function to force string comparisons for those rare
edge cases like "6. " is equal to "6.” where the engine automatically converts
the strings to numbers.

So that means on 3 different platforms (Mac, Win, Linux) using item

We had the same "problem" in Foxpro because of the Dbase legacy.
