See, now this is why we need a cetralized website where you can post 
your news : )  everyone is having to set up the same thing, seems 
a little silly.

I'm slowly moving it into one of my larger programs with many lists. 
With the amount of initialization this list does compared to my older 
ones, I can shave off 20-30 lines of code, per list.

For those that want to set up there own site, OK, but then what they 
should do is feed an RSS to the central site.

Given even this grou, I bet you would see news almost every day, 
sometimes 5-10 bits of news.

could also be a news item viewer for Viewtop? I think it's a bit 
of a shame to stuff everything in little dull text files.

I think of it the other way around, "send" the material in XML, RSS, 
ATOM, what ever, an let each system deal with showing it.  But no 
matter what, we need a website where all this stuff comes together.

Are you willing to provide an RSS feed?

I could do that, but I need to generate it...

I see that hdr-cols is now needed.

For some reason, I can't get the scroller width to stay at 15 on 
resizing, and the edge button is still wider than the scroller width.

Where can I set the edge button width ?

the edge button should follow the width of the scroller automatically

and hdr-cols shouldn't be needed... the images in the docs show that

Previously the header used out-cols, but now it's ignoring that information. 
 I had to use hdr-cols to only get the 3 headers I wanted.

should follow the width, but not working for me.  Is there a place 
in the source I can start the edge to a width I want ?

do you have the latest sources? I really can't see how out-cols should 
be ignored for use as hdr-cols...

I use the docs as kind of a testing ground too. If you see something 
in the docs which you are trying to do, it should work, because the 
images in there are always generated from the latest version

You don't have any examples of setting the scroller width :)

right :-)

made a rebsite under Public/HMK Design. should be a little easier 
to run the demo now

Graham, I'm having flash backs looking at your app.

I have a question about the matrix functions in Draw.  Is it true 
they can only be applied to an existing draw sequence?  that is ,I 
am creating novel points to insert into a polyline that is yet to 
be drawn, it seems I cant  use the matrix functions to generate these 
points.

TomC, I think I understand your question. I had a similar problem. 
I wanted to calculate where some points in the middle of a curve 
would be, if that curve were drawn.

This is a problem I am having setting up a view on a linux virtual 
server. My cgi look like...

#!../../REBOL -vcsi
rebol []

print "content-type: text/html^/"
print "HELLO WORLD! --REBOL"

There probably is no X server, so this might explain the error. Is 
there a work around, or do I really need X?

I'd suggest using Core for CGI rather than View

You need X, or use Rebol/Core if you use only CGI (and don't need 
View features like creating image on the fly)

I dont need view, its just easier to do using it, since the project 
involves layering gif images. My expectations were that View would 
work as long as I didnt try to show a window. Luckily I have a a 
backup plan in place, just use core, so I set that up core last night.

I'd like to be able to use Core as a CGI processor for its image 
creation features......But I've never had a happy time testing it.

Core has image creation features?

appearently not many... I am happy to the image datatype though.

Anyone know how to popup a windows *without* grabbing focus ?

LIST-VIEW 0.0.22 released.

Changelog is inside the main file:http://www.hmkdesign.dk/rebol/list-view/list-view.r
Docs: http://www.hmkdesign.dk/rebol/list-view/list-view.html

Henrik, I have confirmed that the graphic for the following section 
is correct...
   view layout [
     list-view with [
       in-cols: [Name Level Score]
       data: [
         ["Joe" 12 5645.6]
         ["James" 6 4472.2]
         ["Jimmy" 11 5631.7]
       ]
       fonts: [
         [style: 'bold]
         [align: 'center]
         [align: 'right]
       ]
     ]
   ]

I pictured this being a 3 col listview, with
first column - left aligned, bold
second column - centered, not bold
third column - right aligned, not bold

are the blocks in the font object to be applied to the respective 
column?  If so, can you explain why there are two centered columns. 
 What am I missing?

Graham, if you mean a REBOL window, I think the only option is to 
change the active window after it comes up. If launching another 
app, you can tell it not to activate the window.

Other applications have popups which don't grab focus .. eg Avast! 
virus scanner.

Trillian ...

etc.  Is that something we can add to View ?

Yes, but there's not a 'dont-activate option for VIEW AFAIK.

Or, is it an OS call ?

It should be possible. It's a parameter to the ShellExecute and SetWindowPos 
API functions.

Oh, and ShowWindow.

Oh .. windows voodoo
