Lemur 5

[Softcore]

You guys made me cry from hapiness!

We also need to download a newer desktop editor I suppose?

Yes, download and run the Lemur Installer 5.0.1 from the Support section:

So if our app is now broken under 5.0, do you have any suggestions for fixing it?

Quick summary of what it's mainly complaining about:

I had a variable operators = {OP7, OP6, OP5, OP4, OP3, OP2, OP1};
Where OP7, OP6, etc are the names of containers.

Then I had code that did things like this:

tmpOp = operators;
setexpression(tmpOp.Focus, 'x', 0);


I would use this technique to change the position of containers based on a menu selection (setobjectrect(tmpOp, coords);) and other manipulations of objects.
I also have vectors of coordinates based on different layouts and would select the coordinates by using a menu to get the Monitor object holding the vector I want, then subindexing into that vector. I can post more code examples, or you can take a look at my TX-802 editor that was actually nearing completion before the update happened.

This allowed very compact code - I could write a single generic routine and have it operate on all my containers with basically no code duplication.

None of that works now in 5.0

Any suggestions of acceptable ways to manipulate objects?

wow, I like the radial stuff made with the new Canvas object. Beautiful. Thank you very much Liine team for the update, this is huge.

Besides, the Windows editor crashes every time when I try to download templates with said radial stuff from the iPad. Will need to do this with iFunbox.

Edit: certain templates (with radial Canvas objects, but also other new templates) crash the Windows editor anyway, when downloading from the Lemur app or when loading from file. On a Mac everything is working fine. No crashes so far. My advice: get a Mac, or build a hackintosh when working with Lemur. It's worth it for several reasons.

Investigating this. No need to buy a new computer yet.

sorry, I shouldn't have said that. Of course the Windows editor does work fine, I use it often without problem. It's just that the Mac editor works slightly better and is always stable.

No worries! Apologies for the crash that slipped through quality control over here at Liine HQ. Looking into that bug.
