I emailed this privately to Brian, but I'll include it here for everyone, too. The versions of the LCB manuals that are on LC's website (at least the ones that I was able to find), are dated. The versions that are included embedded in LC are much more complete (though still missing things). Until I

I guess I never answered the original question: The editor type isn't a LCB thing. Those are a part of the IDE. Here is the path from the open source repository: .../livecode/ide/Toolset/palettes/inspector/editors/ You should also be able to find them in your local install of LC. /Applications/L

I was about to call you out, too, Brian. I started trying to work with LCB several years ago, kept slamming into things that weren't documented, and decided I had better things to do with my time. Now I'm back at it, but I don't think it should be such a black hole, especially when I put it down fo

Honestly the way I learned the most about LCB was working on the LC widgets. There is plenty of example code there but you just have to spend time understanding what you are reading. Brian Milby br...@milby7.com > On Sep 10, 2022, at 2:01 PM, Mike Kerner via use-livecode > wrote: > > I was

I was trying to work on Ralph's improvements on the navBar and I kept getting bitten by the thin documentation of lcb, so for my own benefit, i started a wiki and issues list to fill in the blanks Please help me learn lcb by adding to both of these.

I also got rid of the 3 properties. I have a Icon Zoom percent that defaults to 100 % for all icons just about finished. I guess I'll have to understand github. I was hoping to avoid it until I retire. Every time I go to github it's just so confusing just to get something that's there. It's not in

Ah, okay, I think I understand. There's a bit to unpack here: 1. There is no direct communication between Navigator and the LC IDE toolbar. That means that the inspector triggered by the IDE toolbar will reflect whatever is selected. 2. Navigator *only* tries to change the current selection automa
