... Fortunately, Randall, Stéphane was not wrong (in that the issue was about what data is or isn't 'in' something) AND the interpreter is not broken. ...
... I understand gravity ... but it's much simpler than that ... my pencil just fell down. ... I fail to see ... what logic has to do ... with programming. I'm...
... Thanks for telling that I'm not wrong ;-) and the interpreter either. I admit that, in this particular case, set theory wasn't essential for seeing that a...
... And it *was* fun... densely packed but fun :-) ... I know I'm guilty of that far too often, and I'm sure we all are from time to time. Well, perhaps with...
... Yeah. I ran into that issue a while back. ... I have a printed project that I'd like to bring completely inside SC, but I need full justified, too.. ... It...
You could still automate this process, if you have an applescriptable word processing or page layout program. Use SC for data entry, export the text to Pages,...
Hi Vince and Doug, ... I'll also be wanting to do some printing soon. I've tried to follow the thread, but I'm not sure I see the problem. I understand the...
Hi Ken, In case you missed it, Scott's post is the critical one on this issue: ****** This is a known problem Doug. It is due to the fact that SuperCard prints...
You misunderstand me. Logic is not universal. It is way to build a computable language. You can say a lot of different things with logic. Any useful logic...
Bruce, Vince, Randall Thanks for the three different ways of dealing with this problem. I ended up using Vince's approach but I plan to try out the other two...
In the Heip App... under the heading "popupdata"... ... So... what are the other (undocumented) "metacharacter pairs" that one can use to format items within a...
So here is what I would like to do: 1. show a blank menu item 2. show a hierarchical menu branch off of an item 3. show an image as an item (not an icon). Any...
Oh... and another request... 4. tell superCard which item of the popupdata I want to display as the name of the popup button. Randall ... Randall Reetz  ...
... The straight poop from Mark. There are still more, but mostly this is it. From a file called 'PopupMenu', but I'm not sure where it hangs out. Someone will...
Let's say you have a pop-up control that is bg btn 1. To tell SuperCard which item of the popupdata you want to display as the name of the pop-up button,...
I suppose the real source of difficulty is in the assumption of paper output. As I recall, Hypercard and SuperCard were designed in that golden era when it was...
I was doing this earlier and outputting to AppleWorks and also constructing webpages from the same data. However, since the scripting of Appleworks in and of...
Howdy, ... Check out the PopupMenu external (Xtend in the Help sys Library). Otherwise, just changing the name will flicker. IOW, normally, a popup always...
... OK, sure, I was just surmising that a workaround could fake a cure for the justification problem. All things done in computers are slight-of-hand anyway...
I am not sure but was SuperCard 5 slated for availability in the second quarter or was this timing for a universal update or are both the same thing. Can't...
... Hi Doug, Ah - something I actually know! Preceed the desired mark character with an exclamation mark-- An example: put the backdrop into tBkDrp if tBkDrp =...
Hi Lorenz I was talking about the popupmenu that is stored in the popUpData of a popUpButton. Such data needs a metaCharacter code to accomplish this. I am...
