Re: problems with 5.5, 6.6, 6.7. 7.0

Thanks for the suggestion Bill. However, I don't see how it can be something to do with the disk. In the case of 5.5, the border of an image disappears when the blendLevel is altered. This seems to have something do with the new layerMode introduced in 5.5. With regard to the 6.x series, I hadn

Re: Your installer is broken

Roger, Make a backup of 6.7 first just in case. I doubt that it would remove 6.7 (RR and LC never delete older versions from your machine when installing - I've still got every version right back to 5.5) but keep one safe anyway. And make backups of your projects while you're at it. All the best

resetting preferences in 7.0.1 rc4 (Windows 7)

RC4 is loading (every time) as Motif appearance on Windows 7. Resetting this through the menu takes effect for that session, but on restarting, this preference is not saved. Deleting the stacks here: C:\Users\<>\AppData\Roaming\RunRev\Preferences just results in a new Livecode7 stack being crea

Group command with an object list

Getting a run time error on command "group tList". I'm constructing tList from the selectedObjects by replace return with " and " and making sure there isn't a trailing " and " at the end. The runtime error includes the contents of tList which look correct to me - " and ". I can get round it by

Re: resetting preferences in 7.0.1 rc4 (Windows 7)

That is not a preference that is saved, its session specific. I looked at the script for that menu, and the function that sets the look and feel (or at least the one that determines which look and feel should be used, on initialization) is this: function revThisLookAndFeel if the platform is "

Re: Group command with an object list

It seems that tList can't be long ids, or long names (as far as I can tell), but selectedobjects field "field" and button "button" will probably work, but there's an easier way. Save the list of selectedObjects however you currently do it, just exactly as it shows up from the selectedobjects (si

Re: resetting preferences in 7.0.1 rc4 (Windows 7)

Thanks for the suggestion Mike. But that's not the problem. I can change the appearance via the menu. But such a change will not stick. I discovered that this is a preference problem because somehow LC 7.0.1 RC4 is remembering a httpProxy setting which I set some days/weeks ago (which may well

I am trying to include a mergSocket.lcext file with my iOS build, but the standalone builder refuses to include it. There are no errors, just no file in the bundle. I am using LC 7.0.1 on OSX 10.9 using SDK 8.1. I am selecting copy file directly, not copy folder. The file is located in a folde

Re: resetting preferences in 7.0.1 rc4 (Windows 7)

Interesting. In my case, its opposite. I can set motif, but when it starts up again its back to native. (which is why I was wondering if its a setting that isn't save) Somewhere, if I can find it, is a preferences template file. I bet at some point that got saved with the changes. Either way, I wo

Re: resetting preferences in 7.0.1 rc4 (Windows 7)

Another good suggestion, Mike. But even "save stack revPreferences" did not make the preference change stick. The httpProxy setting is as annoying as the Motif look. It was a libURL error showing me that it was trying to access the proxy that made me realise the prefs were not being saved. I che

Reading up on some stuff. You might check to make sure that windows itself doesn't have a stuck proxy setting (not likely, since you'd notice it elsewhere, but worth a check) because liburl will use the windows setting of it isn't set specifically with code. At least it's something to eliminate.

The suggestion about a system proxy was a good one! That proxy was disabled on a system-wide basis on Windows; the values for the proxy were still in the boxes (but grayed-out). It appears all the browsers were ignoring these values, as the Internet Options said to not use a proxy. Livecode seem
