Monte, Thanks again. I wasn't really going to pester Kevin or Mark. I save all my pestering for their monthly Livecode Global Fireside Chats ;-) I am glad to hear rc3 may be soon. I'll have to review our release timing and then, only if needed, contact Heather. We'll have to do a bunch of re

Hi Paul RC3 is not far off and both Kevin and Mark are already very keen to get it out already. I believe there are arrangements for access to internal builds, however, I’m not sure of the fees involved. Might be best to query Heather on that. Cheers Monte > On 8 Mar 2023, at 8:38 am, Paul D

Monte, Thank you! Yes, it does appear I just spent several hours tracking down a DUPLICATE bug entry. Curse me for NOT searching the bug database FIRST! So, I guess my next task is to pester Kevin and /or Mark tomorrow to get me 969rc3 ASAP as I was literally QA testing the last bug before c

I just tested the "Main.livecode" test stack (in the bug report) on a Windows 11 system with a unmodified install of LC 969rc2 freshly downloaded and it exhibits the same bug(s) with all 4 menu object types as noted in Comment 2 above. This appears to be a Windows specific regression of LC 969

Hi Paul I believe this issue is already resolved for RC3. It is in the engine so not something that can be scripted around unfortunately. See https://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=24003 Cheers Monte > On 8 Mar 2023, at 4:58 am, Pau

Matthias, Thank you for macOS testing. I primarily develop on Windows and had not yet tested on our Mojave macOS Powerbook. It does indeed work on macOS. I just added to the bug report an improved test stack that presents a Dialog with a: Pulldown menu - works under 968 (Mac+Win), and 969rc2

The one in the example stack submitted with the bug report. The point is not about UI design. It's that code and objects that worked in LC 9.6.8 does not work at all in 9.6.9rc2. On 3/7/2023 1:32 PM, Craig Newman via use-livecode wrote: Paul. Hi. What modal dialog has a dropDown menu? Cra

Sadly, I just found another serious regression in LC 9.6.9rc2 that seems to cause dropdown menus in modal dialogs to fail. Code that works in LC 9.6.8 does not work at all in 9.6.9rc2 See https://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=24133 I am hoping LC can fix this for 9.6.8rc3 or, like the l
