file it again if it's not there.  That's the only source they now 
use.

I guess RT put things aside just because its not so urgent

I just do not know how to to it. would you mind to explain to me 
how-to?

at www.rebol.net?

where?

sorry I got it ... pls do not mind

allright guys I got a ticket:  RAMBO Ticket #-359 . Let´s see what 
happens. Thank you all

I was working on my knob style and I realized that the knobs look 
like flying saucers from ed wood films. so here is simple demo - 
do http://krutek.info/rebol/ufo.r

how do you fire? space bar doesn't work!

:)

graham :)

sorry, I thought I was playing Asteroids :)

I'm probably going to write a game basedon it

Here is fun script from Bo (with help of Anton) - plese add it to 
Desktop demo folder :-) http://www.rebol.org/library/scripts-download/swintro.r

does text-list supports multi-column?

Allen had mentioned using rate to handle forever loops in action 
blocks but my problem is that i have a while loop that executes a 
lengthy amount of functions before it even loops again.  I almost 
believe I need a multi-threading way of doing this.   I thought about 
it for awhile and think an enhancement would be nice where you can 
for example use launch function for executing additional threads 
but have a memory space for passing data between the threads.  Any 
of the REBOL gurus involved with RT know if something like this is 
capable?

dunno, probably not a bug, but at least a cache headache - imagine 
following scenario. Today I did small script for my friend. I created 
C:\app-name-here directory and put it inside, along with rebol/view. 
I then decided to install View, to get .r association, so that my 
small scripts could be put directly onto Window desktop (I don't 
need yet another desktop - View one, If I can't parametrise it further 
- buttons, removal of rebol.com etc.). So, after installation, I 
filled in network info, saved, and exited view. Then I could see, 
dirs like 'public, 'local 'desktop were created.  So I deleted them, 
to remove additional clutter they caused in my directory. To my surprise, 
View ignores the fact it is already installed, I choosed to not use 
desktop, yet I was brought to desktop once again.

I can understand that I should not probably put cache location into 
my preferred app directory directly, but I wanted to have it self-contained 
- not Rebol scattered around my hd. Sadly, settings for desktop are 
in Desktop directory, so once I delete it, rebol starts to desktop 
once again. Imo we need desktop?: no setting in user.r

After all - wasn't there any such setting in the past?

desktop: false was in prefs.r in View 1.2.1 (I have 5 versions of 
Rebol saved for some reason...)

desktop: none in user.r could work. would replace 'desktop-func with 
a nop. not tried.

;umm am I using Toggle wrong or is there a glitch in it?  This is 
View 1.3.1..


view layout [Tog1: toggle {First} Tog2: toggle {Second} btn {Pop} 
[Tog1/Data: Tog2/Data: false show [Tog1 Tog2]]]

oops I started looking for more and toggle and forgot to say the 
problem  XD


Pop is just supposed to.. well.. pop the buttons up, but it won't...

use face/state, not face/data (all styles should use /data... but 
they don't...)

Thank you  =^)

Hi Gabriele, Is there a possibility of putting aliases put in place 
so View has that consistency across all the styles?  I think we also 
have /value and for a text face /text when I think it could always 
be /data

set-face and get-face are the answer to this problem. accessors still 
need to be written for some styles though.

A puzzle this brings up; where is the 'value referred to by this 
function
>> layout [text-list with [print mold :update]]
func [/local item value][
    sld/redrag lc / max 1 length? data
    if item: find data picked/1 [
        sld/data: min 1 (index? item) / (max 1 lc)
        sn: max 0 to-integer sld/data * ((1 + length? data) - lc)
    ] [
        sld/value: 0.0    ; <----------- ?
        pane/offset: 0x0
    ]
    self
]
>> layout [scroller with [?? value]]
** Script Error: value has no value
** Where: ??
** Near: mold name: get name

that's face/sld/value, not face/value

yes, I know.

ah, also, you're comparing text-list and scroller. mmm.

sld is a scroller

but if you do:
>> find mold svv/vid-styles/scroller "value:"
== none

that's most likely a bug. should be sld/data

i think /value is the remains of a very old scroller style :)

Yes, If you examine
 write clipboard:// mold svv/vid-styles/text-list

then you cannot see any reference to "value:"  (ie. the text-list's 
scroller is not extended with the 'value facet either).

I agree. So maybe the text-list/update function is not used much 
any more ?

submit to rambo (if not already there)

well, /update should be used by users. maybe noone found the bug 
so far.

OK.

I'm too tired right now to do a more full analysis unfortunately.. 
but I'll submit at least.

yes, just a reminder about this problem. replacing that with data 
will fix it.

layout [t: text-list]
t/update   ; <--- what is strange is this doesn't cause any error
t/sld/value
;** Script Error: Invalid path value: value
;** Near: t/sld/value

anyway...

hehe, it's not strange. but, i had to look at it very closely to 
see why :)

oh.. :-/ ok.. c'mon brain...

and, this explains why noone noticed it so far.

(submitted ticket)

there's an if instead of an 'either too.

so looks like someone changed that code while being a bit distracted 
:)
