Re: Upgrade to Lion on 15 inch laptop pro forces resize of stacks

I think that my problems may have had a lot to do with that I also work on a large monitor part of the time and on the laptop alone part of the time. I will remove the bug report I guess since all the excellent sleuthing proved somehow that my problem was operator error. Anyway, I redesigned my mai

Re: Upgrade to Lion on 15 inch laptop pro forces resize of stacks

William, This is very easy to achieve, in the card script, on openCard you can simply, lock screen set the height of stack "my stack" to 3456 set the width of stack "my stack" to 2345 This will override the automatic resizing that goes on. This does have it's problems though as it may push the m

If you would like to test you own set up you can use the following: I created a new stack "Untitled 1" and placed a button in it with this script: (watch for line wraps) on mouseUp put "ScreenRect: " & the screenRect into tRec put item 4 of the screenRect into tScrnHt put item 3 of the s

Re: Upgrade to Lion on 15 inch laptop pro forces resize of stacks

Thanks for help with confirmation. I was hoping for a way to tell LiveCode that the stack size I set was "locked" and not to change it regardless of the size of the dock or the size of the screen that the stack is on. If that is not possible than I wish that there were "suggested" stack sizes in th

I am on an iMac wiht Lion. ScreenRect returns 0,0,1280,800 Working ScreenRect returns 4,22,1280,800 windowBoundingRect returns 4,74,1280,800 My dock is on the left of the screen so that accounts for the 0/4 in the first item. I assume the top setting of windowboundingrect takes the IDE toolbar

Yeah, there is going to have to be something built in for a future update to address that. Otherwise devs are going to be forced to do geometry management for anything they intend to release, and we all know what a pain that can be. Bob On Jun 13, 2012, at 6:02 PM, Kay C Lan wrote: > As for

OK - I reported it is the qacenter. I wonder what is going to happen to our stacks on the new retina display laptop?

Re: Upgrade to Lion on 15 inch laptop pro forces resize of stacks

This probably will not help you much, but I develop my stacks to fit in a pretty small space, so that I can accommodate smaller monitors. Eventually I will develop some kind of step scaling for the app if I need it, to increase the size of forms and objects, including font scaling as well. You

The problem is not going away and it's very annoying. I work with laptop plugged into large monitor and have no problem and then when I leave and use just the laptop it shortens all the stacks. I don't want to re-work every stack completely to be that shorter size so the only quick solution I can t

Unless I'm missing something, the crux of William's problem is that he simply upgraded to Lion without chaging anything in his application and now his stacks are a differernt height on the same computer, same screen size, no changes to his application. If that's true then either LC is doing someth
