resizeControl message for groups

I'm thinking this may be a documentation bug, but wanted to check before submitting. I know that resizeControl is sent to a group when the size is updated by script (for other controls, the message is only generated when manually resized by dragging handles). The documentation for the message doe

Re: [ANN] Release 9.6.0 DP-1

I have a couple and at least one is directly targeted at mobile (7154).  6404 is Vulcan reviewed but not yet merged (and is the oldest one I have outstanding).  Both are widget updates. For the IDE I only have 1987 which had a conflict that I just resolved (allow nesting of DG behaviors). Than

Re: Java update?

I’m on Catalina and that is the version I installed.  I’ve only done one test Android build with it though so I don’t know if there would be any negative impact as an upgrade.  I did have to jump through the hoops to create an Oracle login. Thanks, Brian On Dec 10, 2019, 11:25 AM -0500, J. Land

Re: Something wrong with LiveCode 9.5.1

My guess is that 9.6 will be the first to officially support Catalina and get the notarization treatment.  I think it was hinted at in the release email for the first DP. Thanks, Brian On Dec 16, 2019, 3:20 PM -0500, Richmond via use-livecode , wrote: > Thank you for that; it was a great help.

Re: Polygon Side Does Note Match to Polygon rect

The center (loc) of the rect is the center of the triangle.  So to get a triangle of width W, you need to set the height and width of the grc to 2*W/sqrt(3). Thanks, Brian On Dec 27, 2019, 10:31 AM -0500, Sannyasin Brahmanathaswami via use-livecode , wrote: > Regular Polygon Tool: > > If you cr

Re: Changing extention on script only stack

One option to eliminate the external file altogether would be to make it a substack prior to building. Thanks, Brian On Jan 8, 2020, 10:52 AM -0500, Greg (Pink) Miller via use-livecode , wrote: > I have my main stack "PanelManager.livecode" with a behavior script with a > file name "panamana.lcs

Re: Littel Arrows

The disconnect is that on a mobile you touch the content and move it directly.   If you grab the scroll bar and drag it, the content moves the opposite direction.  On a computer’s touch device/scroll wheel, natural scrolling moves the content like mobile (think two finger swipe).  The old way it

Re: Changing extention on script only stack

And if you want to edit scripts in an external editor, my tool may be useful to you: https://github.com/bwmilby/scriptTracker It would support putting the scripts themselves into a repository so you could track changes.  It generates a consolidated diff every time it exports scripts. Thanks, Br

Re: shell() and pdftotext

Re: Changing extention on script only stack

I would offer a clarification for ScriptTracker:  while the files it exports could be used as-is for SoS behaviors, that is not the goal of the tool.  One goal is to allow editing of scripts in external editors (performance is one reason, but there are others too).  A larger goal is to allow Git

Re: directory tree -> array

Much of the needed work is already done in the standalone builder code.  I don’t think it does a nested array, but it does handle things like processing links/shortcuts.  I’ll try to take a look to see if a short recursive function could be easily built. Thanks, Brian On Jan 22, 2020, 1:59 PM -
