tabbed windows in Mac - as setProp

Well it seems the feature is “tabbed” windows. It is a feature of High Sierra. However for non-Apple apps it has to be implemented by the third party, and in this case I think the LC implementation is faulty. I can add windows to the tabs, but not remove the last tab.There is supposed to be a m

Re: Finding common words and phrases in a large block of text?

Hi Terry, I see, thanks for sharing your handler. I'm going to run it on some text and see the output. LC is sooo good with chunks.I find it really fast as well. All the best, Tom On Thu, Oct 25, 2018 at 5:07 PM, Terry Judd via use-livecode < use-livecode@lists.runrev.com> wrote: > On 26

setProp question - stacked windows

Aha. My first thought was that it must be a Mac system “feature” since the iconised version looked Mac-ish rather than LC-ish. But I hadn’t updated to Mojave, and I had just updated to LC9.0.1 and it didn’t affect LC8, so I deduced it was down to LC. Thanks Brian, you have given me a place to lo

Re: RE setProp question

I believe this is an OS feature and not LiveCode. Mac added the ability to “stack” windows which displays as a second title bar (which is tabs when multiple are stacked). I don’t have one of the new versions that have this feature, so I am not sure how to disable it. Thanks, Brian On Oct 25, 20

RE setProp question

Thanks for the replies about may setProp question a little while back. But no-one game me any info about the annoying problem I raised concerning windows under LC9 and it’s driving me nuts. To recap: new stacks (but not old stacks) and some engine windows such as for scripts and the dictionary

fdfToArray function

Hi all. Anyone interested in getting data from, or putting data into an Acrobat Fillable Form will appreciate this. It parses an FDF file into an LC array. I have a companion function that takes an array (formatted properly of course) and creates an fdf file that a PDF form can use to populate

As the same ODBC driver (Windows 10 SQL Server) works w/o a problem when using a user or system DSN connection, the driver should not be the problem. Regards, Matthias Rebbe free tools for Livecoders: https://instamaker.dermattes.de https://winsignhelper.dermattes.de > Am 26.10.2018 um 00:21

Thanks Mark, isn´t the DBQ parameter used when you want to access a file based Database like Access .mdb files? I tried it anyway, but added a "e before tAccessDBFilename, as it seems that was missing in your example. Still getting the buffer error [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Ungültige Ze

thanks for the reply... as I mentioned, the location/sizing thing was the less important issue. I didn't explain the standalone issue well enough. I had the call to the rev-stack within a "if environment is development" condition, so a standalone compile would have ignored the goto ... it was
