Thanks for the input Bill. I think it would be hard for me to sell lcStackBrowser on the basis of video/screenshots, although I do have some old videos of the product in use. It has so many features and functionality that the video would be too long or I'd have to come up with fairly large number

Hi Peter, I've never looked at your product (but following this discussion, I think I must). I'm confused though by this statement: Can't the Community Edition users just use the paid version of your tool? Isn't the only difference with LC "editions" that the CE cannot create password-protected

Hi Bernard, Community Edition can't load password protected stacks because that would break the rules of open source, so the password encryption/decryption routines are not compiled into the Community Edition. I believe that is the only functional difference between the Community Edition and the C

if listbehavior is toggled off, the clicktext returns the word clicked for me, sans punctuation. Of course, this means there is no hilite, so you'd have to "workaround" that problem and use the clickchunk to hilite it if needed. On Sun, Jan 4, 2015 at 10:45 AM, Richmond wrote: > Humpf . . . > >

Is the group on the current (visible) card? If not, then exists will be false. Otherwise, the id is enough when the group is present on the current card. Regards, Scott Rossi Creative Director Tactile Media, UX/UI Design On 1/4/15, 2:11 PM, "Dr. Hawkins" wrote: >put exists(group id 1004 o

Re: group id exists but yet not . . .

OK, I¹m mistaken, exists should find the group even when not on the current card. When the group reference is combined with the stack reference, it works. It also works as the following, which makes sense. put exists(grp id 1006 of this stack) Regards, Scott Rossi Creative Director Tactile
