... No, when I exported ALL the files to the desktop I chose not to append .jpg which was an checkbox option offered by iPhoto. All the files were treated this...
Hi Lowell, ... Just a flying leap into a dungpile here, but is it possible some files have different EXIF data than others? Is the source of all the original...
Hi, I am new to Supercard, just getting it a couple of days ago. I have a Hypercard stack that I converted and applied a color to the background. I notice in...
The stack I am working on has about 350 cards in it. All but about 4 or 5 are the same background (that is, almost 350 of the same background and fields). So I...
I am reworking a converted Hypercard stack and applied a background color to a card as well as made the window larger. All seems to have gone well except in...
Hi Richard: Reminds me of an awful shock moment when I accidently mistyped a commandkey N instead of an M. The text in all the fields dissapeared. Doing a...
Hi Richard, this one I can answer. One tiny disadvantage in SuperCard (as against a whole plethora of advantages) is that the text format of a background field...
I have been working several hours on this stack I converted from Hypercard. Ran out of energy (both me and computer) but I can't get SC to quit. If I click on...
In the Hypercard stack I converted I had lines like: global one, two, three -- that is creating 3 globals. but when I try to run it no action. I do get it to...
In the project I am working on, I used the message box to activate "trace on" several times but no effect at all. Scripts don't work and trace does not come...
Richard, when I have converted old hyperCard stacks into superCard projects in the past I've found it's never a good idea to just expect everything to work....
... Hi Richard, This is one of the big differences in behaviour of a feature between SC and HC. In SC, background text field contents are unique to the card in...
... Not in my experience. I'd look first to rogue scripts that may be hogging things in some way. This could be the root of the other problems you posted, too....
... Could be that you have a repeat loop in one of your scripts that is still running when you try at quit. As long as that script is not running in an idle...
... One Two and Three are actual words in the SuperCard language and can't be used as variables. A good habit to get into when naming variables it to put a G...
Joe, Thanks for the response. I did not make it as clear as I could. I used numbers as examples, the actual global words were: rubric, heading, remedyholder. I...
Dave, Thanks. I was coming to this same conclusion. I started trying to make the script work by editing. Now I am thinking better to recreate it using the...
Yes, I think there was something in a script. I had to force quit but on opening it again got a message about something not understood. I am going to "comment...
I tried to do this tonight without much success. I selected a scrolling card field, chose a color for it and it looked fine. But when going back to the browser...
Is there a way to take a line of text, like this: "here we have a line of text" and rearrange it in a vertical field to look like this? here we have a line of ...
Yes, you can use the replace() function: get line 1 of cd fld 1 get replace(it,space,cr) put it into cd fld 2 ... Lisa via iPod touch On Apr 7, 2009, at 8:22...
Yes Richard, I preferred HyperCard in this regard too. Clicking within an unlocked field in SuperCard, preparatory to typing in it will always turn the field...
You're welcome. I'm not sure why your trace facility isn't working. Sorry if I'm stating the obvious here but you do realise that trace won't work if there...
... Actually, Global singular is correct syntax. I thought you were actually using One, Two and Three as your global containers. Are you calling the Global at...
Thanks for the clarification. I was calling the global command at the beginning. I fiddled with it more last night and got it working. Put in the "g" before...
Thanks for the hint on putting "trace" into the script. I will certainly try that. Last night I was able to get trace to work. I think some of my difficulty...
Yes, a little confusing. I will just have to work with it some more to get to what I want. I do wish there were more colors available — ones not so strong or...
