Tiemo, There’s nothing wrong with your logic, this all works fine on a Mac, LC8.1.4 (rc1), but from an earlier post I gather you are on Win 10 so this looks like there's a bug in the works, maybe a Linux user could test also. Have you tried any other versions of LC? HTH Paul > On 12 Apr 2017

Re: OS X Firewall triggering on launch

Just checked my Firewall settings and there’s no entry for LC, but I’m not seeing any trigger, I’ve used LC 9.0 (dp6) quite a few times since install and no problem so-far! Mac OS Sierra 10.12.4 Paul > On 10 Apr 2017, at 23:21, J. Landman Gay via use-livecode > wrote: > > LC 9.0dp6 trigge

Re: spotting a mouseclick in the transparent area of an image

Ben, if you could edit the PNGs to add a 1% tone to the transparent areas (maybe with a batch process) this allows LC to accept the clicks within the image area. The advantage of this is you could have a 1 % tone inside the area you need be active and completely transparent where you don’t want

Re: Extra Title Bar in All Stacks

This came up a while ago, and Colin Holgate pointed out that it comes from a System Preference setting for the Dock (go figure!). Go to the Apple Menu, open System Preferences and choose the Dock icon. Look at the fifth item down the window and you’ll see: Prefer tabs when opening documents:

Re: DragDrop makes windows unresponsive OS X

Just tried a simple test on Mac OS Sierra / LC8.1.3 and it seems to work fine here. Is there anything else that could be interfering with the dragDrop? Maybe the Message Watcher could give a clue as to what is happening. Paul > On 24 Mar 2017, at 08:00, Bob Sneidar via use-livecode > wrote: >

Re: iOS SDK Question

AFAIK the iOS SDK comes with the particular flavour of Xcode and you need to have the correct version of Xcode to match the version of LC on your choice of OS, if you go to Help > Release Notes the version you need is listed under the iOS Platform Support section, about page 4 I think, or bookma

Re: align field scrolls

Re: Dragging widgets

I would really love to see LC’s image handling improved, not just for SVG, although that would be a huge bonus, but for raster images too. I would happily put money into crowdfunding for this, provided the promises were kept of course. Anyway, this is probably not the answer you are looking for,
