Hollywood forums

Thank you, Andreas.
Just installed the update on my powerbook, now going to explore the news/changes.

Or wait for an APK Compiler update which will come soon ;) I just switched to a new pc (still am using MorphOS as main hollywood system) and was in the process of reinstalling the APK Compiler. Would it be a clever decision to wait for the new version of the APK Compiler or to go through ther hassl...

I found a misbehaviour with RotateTextObject() at least on MorphOS anf Hollywood X (wasn't there in earlier versions): If rotating by 90° or 270° the text object gets placed with some pixel trash like shown here: https://via.bckrs.de/temp/rotate90_hwx.png CreateTextObject (1,"AP- Rate (Hz)"...

I gave up, too. I never got my DUNS number and had issues with the privacy declaration (I added those files, but…). The number of issues shrinked after I put some effort into that. But it didn‘t do a good math: way too much work for maybe a dozen users… I think it’s probably better to support some o...

The MorphOS shutdown tool tdcc was updated to 0.5: -> https://via.bckrs.de/files/tdcc.htm Nothing big, but removed a shut down time miscalculation probably introduded in V0.3 related to a slider event ("level") triggered by "moai.set ("slider01","Level",..." E...

For easy things like Fastram/Chipram availability you can run the DOS command "avail" via Hollywood command run (or ecxecute) Run ("Sys:avail >ram:bla") And access the result from ram:bla from your code. Instead of using a temp file that you access you can use the new syntax of r...

I suggest to use the run() command if you want to keep your daughter script also as a stand alone program. You shoud set up a message port in your daughter script and an EventHandler: CreatePort("daughter_script_MSGPORT") ;Message port for Interprocess communication InstallEventHandler({On...

I also took the plunge to remove the issues on google play. I second all you said. It's no fun and the hurdes to publish are rather high. Te API leve issue of course is not yet resolved.. And its kind of strange that you exlicitly must declare all these things, declaring that stop watch or reaction ...

There is no active usage of the program, As all of my programs check for the current version I can get rough estimates of how often the progamm gets launched by looking how often the version string was called. And for PerCIMan these numbers are _very_ low (not even once during 2023!). Not worth to p...
