Lua Glider v 1.9 Launch (Discount Code Included)

Thanks Juf Jannie, this worked like a charm. However, why does it take so long for the background scanning to complete. This seems to be holding up the functionality of the program.

still no Glider Options icon in preferences!

How do I get the print statements to show up in the console window?

Hi,

The 1.9 release reverted back to the default theme.  How do I set it to the 1.9 beta theme?

Nathan.

will be good if you make a video to show how the “Project management” works. :wink: Thanks for this version!

Just bought this version and the automated messages still point to the old installers (1.7). Got the link for new installer from the first post in this thread. Just pointing out that you might want to update the automated email. 

No need to mess with the LIC file. 1.9 will just use your existing 1.7 licence file.

Did you try clearing the cache as shown in the other forum post? Please try doing that, it should fix the issue.

Do you mean the simulator window in Glider? or the standard output window in the console? If you are running in debug/run mode it will only print to the IDE console,

The themes were giving a few issues with a particular panel (git->show changes). Since that was the only one we found, who knows what other panels are affected. This is why we temporarily reverted to the system native theme which does not have that problem. Hopefully they will have a fix for it soon. You can still enable skins if you wish via tools->options->editor-> Look and Feel.

Yes we will be making lots of videos as soon as we fix all the major bugs that usually crop up after launch. If we had these bugs during dev time we would never launch until they were fixed!

Thanks for letting us know about this. It is fixed now, sorry about any inconvenience.

Hi, sorry, I see I typed lice, but I meant LiVe coding.

There is a live codign option.

I select a variable and click add to live code. A comment appears beneath it. In the live code window the variable with an option to change a number appears.

But when i change the numbers nothing happens.

Tried this while the app is paused and running.

How do I do this correctly? 

Hello Juf,

The live coding workflow goes as follows:

  1. Close the debugger

  2. set your live code variables (via the right click menu as you did)

  3. start the debugger

  4. change the live code variables (in the livecode panel) and you should see the simulator update properly

Hi,

thank you for the update, just started trying it out.

  • Glider plugins support- Easily run command line programs in various areas of the build process.

Where do I find a description of how to use this feature? I want to automatically run a batch file before building…

Thanks a lot,

Any chance the discount code is still available?

Good news.

Do you know how to have the simulator always on top ?

When I run project, the simulator is on top, but when I edit my code it goes backward… trying to put it somewhere else (the editor on left and the simulator on the right) is useless because when relaunched it goes to its default location …

On textmate or sublime, when typing “fun”+tab, a function is created with tab navigation.

Is there any shortcut to do so in glider ?

Actually, I realize I have no autocomplete at all working in glider : maybe I have to do an extra setup to make them work ?

And could you tell me why I keep on getting this error preventing me from “run”

Warning! Some file(s) could not be synchronized:

D:**\main.lua

An external program (probably the simulator) has locked the file(s).

Yes. Please see this screenshot:

Does Ctrl-space work?

Seems like the simulator might still be running, sometimes it holds file locks to main.lua. Please ensure the simulator is closed and there are no instances running in the background that might be holding onto the file handle.

Thx for all the answers.

BTW, glider has made a long way since its beginning, everything is quite fast now and the instant doc is so cool !

Hello Antheor,

Thank you for your nice words. We couldn’t have done it without everyone’s support so we truly appreciate all your support, feature requests and suggestions. It has helped us improve Glider a lot.

Thank you for your support!
