Hi Leon, You are correct. When I test here using 4.6's hfstoposix here's what I get: put hfsToPosix("OS X:Users:vangelon:Desktop: Humid & * Log.app") into cd...
Hi The allowDeleteCardMessages was introduced in SC 4.6 I'm confused. For me, the 'openCard' message only works if the allowDeleteCardMessages is set to false....
... Terry. Any chance of working in a "trim" function? By trim, what I mean is that it can trim off (crop) any white (or whatever color) border around an...
... Actually, like the opposite of "Pad" in your sample project there. :-) Making sure it will stop cropping (trimming) if it encounters a drop shadow or...

Hi Dave, If I understand correctly you want: imageFile("trim",srcPath,dstPath,direction,red,green,blue,alpha) direction = "row" or "col" or "rowCol" So, if we...
Hi all Sorry, i was wrong in my last post. The allowDeleteCardMessages has to be set to true. But it sesms the openCard message is sent before the card opens. ...
Background fields do not share text in SuperCard. You can use a userProperty to update your background field, or use a drawText object. What might be happening...
Hi Bruce Thanks for the quick answer. I thought the openCard message should be sent when a card opens. Guido ... your background field, or use a drawText...

Hi Stéphane and Bruce Thanks for your answers. If i understand you correct both closeCard and openCard messages are sent to the deleted card? That means the...
... ...These are incorrect, of course. The in-words 'CardDelete' are backwards. If you typed them into your script that way, you should get an error, but if ...

In answering my own question. Yes. But... I think my question should have been why does SC elect to condense the image down by reducing it to 72dpi? It could...
My guess is that in the beginning, PictureData was assumed to only deal with presenting images on screen. Since the screens show 72dpi, it didn't make sense...
