Hi James,
Yes, this is true. If you do not see a particular fix in LC 9 but you do
see it in 8.1.x, this means that something went wrong when we merged LC
8.1.x branch into LC 9 branch. So if this is the case, please file a bug
report so as we fix it asap.
Best regards,

Reading the release notes of LC 9 there is a major difference between 8 and

Oddly enough, that may have uncovered a bug in LC 9 dp3 . . .
I thought I would set the points of a polygon graphic to the points of the
regular polygon graphic that I had exported into a scrolling list field.
But when I selected 'Polygon Graphic' from the Menu/Object/New

Aha: the IDE just plonks a pointless polygon graphic in your card, so it
is invisible.

That's not true if graphics are involved. Just follow the rules.
You cannot _set_ the points of a graphic of type "regular".
You can _get_ the points since LC 7 (thanks to Mark Wieder).
Just the same with a graphic of type "Oval" or "Rectangle" o

I should have better used the wording
"graphic of type" than "graphic of style"
because we can
set the style of grc 1 to "polygon"
for example (the function again, just for the completeness here):

if there is no grc "poly" then create grc "poly"

Actually, I am thinking to use this new

When I use:
read from file tURL until eof
to read from a file on disk, should I expect the to always contain
“eof”?
I’m suspecting there could be a a file read error while reading thousands of
files and I want to catch that.What should I expect to see in the result when
that happens?

This could be a number of strings, such as "file not open for read" or
"file does not exist". There is no special string that indicates a
particular error, e.g. the errors don't all start with "error". You have
to check that the error is unexpected and doesn't contains "eof".
Kind regards,

Thanks, Mark.
So I SHOULD see “eof” and NOT any other message if the file read is successful.
