List and Unicode problems of Lars

[Klaus on-rev]

Hi friends,

I post this for Lars Brehmer, he has some trouble with the mailinglist...
I already advised to write to support at runrev.com ;-)

I am little more than frustrated with the list/user form right about now!

I finally upgraded from RunRev 2.8 all the way to LiveCode 5.5 last week, and suddenly I can't post to this digest anymore. I have tried several times and just get the bounced message that I am not a member of this members only list and my post must be reviewed before it gets posted. So far none of the attempts have been posted, even days later. I replied twice to the bounced messages and wrote once to the list owner and so far no one has had the courtesy to reply to me! And when I try to become a member of the list, I get the message that I am already a member and am warned that someone may be trying to abuse my list membership or my email address. 

So If I am a member, why am I not a member at the same time? The members of this forum have literally taught me how to use Runrev/LiveCode and I still need help sometimes!

To my first two problems. Within my projects I use a stack that containes all of the images that are used as button icons. LiveCode 5.5 seems to hijack some of my image id numbers and Livecode images appear in some of my buttons. Even though my icon images will display property in a standalone, this is extremely distracting when i am in working in LiveCode. So far image id 1024 and 1105 are doing this, but there are probably more. This happens both on my Mac and Widows machines.

The second problem is with unicode. I have 5 fields that are "Arial,Unicode" in this project and in other projects I haven't even looked at with LiveCode 5.5 have dozens of unicode fields. LiveCode must do something differently that I don't know about, because I cannot make textFont of these fields unicode, not in the Inspector and not with the message box. What has changed and how do I fix this?

And again, I really need my list membership to work!!!!!

Cheers,

Lars Brehmer <larsbrehmer at me.com>
