or INSERT-ROW, INSERT-ROW/RAW and INSERT-ROW-AT
/raw and /at wouldn't be used simultaneously anyway
doing it this way, will require a minimum of changes to the code
maybe INSERT-ROW, INSERT-ROW-AT and INSERT-ROW-AT/RAW would fit better...

from the interface i like /at

I like it too, but I'd hate to code it :-)

its one ugly line.

Since here is a refienement, it assumes you the specify. selected 
behavior by default.
I you want it to be real slick, I would graph them out, pro and cons, 
etc. If you want it finished, keep up the good work.

well, thinking about it, /here is a pretty good suggestion. Then 
we'd have INSERT-ROW, INSERT-ROW/HERE, INSERT-ROW/HERE/RAW

Anybody got a rebol routine for saving gifs? Perhaps the one I wrote

I sometimes miss a "soft" SHOW, which only shows faces that have 
the SHOW? flag already to be true. Is there an easy way around that?
Ashley

soft-show: func [face] [if face/show? [show face]] ;)

and if I have a large set of faces in a pane?
and more grouped faces inside those faces :-)

	either object? face [

		foreach obj face [...]

get's to be too complex, I think
Anton

It does get complex, and possibly too slow, but you may be able to 
patch show usefully for your application.

Check out a patched SHOW near the bottom of http://www.lexicon.net/antonr/rebol/gui/mimic-do-event.r
It uses a TREE-FACE function.to recurse to all subfaces of the face 
you are SHOWing.
Robert

The thing is to optimize the show-tree. If you have to show more 
than 50% of the sub-faces I can imagine that showing the partent 
face is faster than checking each sub-face.

Is this the latest anamonitor ?  http://www.rebol.it/~romano/#sect1.1.
It has header problems when I try and run it.
Anton

Showing a face may have the effect of showing the parent-face. If 
you show each sub-face, you may be asking the View system to at least 
check if the parent-face needs showing, so, repeating work unnecessarily.

I have a view that works like simple Mapserver client with zoom box, 
etc. I made new version that supports panning, by dragging with mouse.

All worked fine (zooming, panning) until I changed simple loading 
map image from load to read-thru/to.

Zoom box worked, but while mapfile loads it slowly follows cursor 
instead that by script logic (that I did not change) it should stop. 
And my map pane no more returning to zero offset after map image 
loading.
How those view faces are connected with read-thru  ?
 
loadMapImg: func [
	mapUrl
	/local rezImg
][
	if exists? %mapImg.gif [ delete %mapImg.gif ]
	either attempt [
		rezImg: read-thru/to mapUrl %mapImg.gif
;		rezImg: load mapUrl	
	][
		return load %mapImg.gif
;		return rezImg
	][
		return none
	]
]]

When using a text-list, how do I reset the slider to the top if the 
data changes? For example: The slider is at a lower position, now 
I change the content to some smaler list and want to redrag the slider 
to the top and have the text-list show the first entry at the top.
And is there a simple way to add mouse-wheel support to a text-list?
DideC

In 1.3 text-list style has an 'update function to do so.
For mouse-wheel it still tricky as the event is only send to the 
window feel/detect function, and not at the face level.
(bad english today, sorry)

/update doesn't work for me WRT to slider positioning.
I'm doing something like this:

	list/data: make block! []

	<do-something-on list/data>

	sort list/data
	show list/update
DideC

Update should work if there is no item selected. If there is one 
it try to position it at the top (what I dislike)
I have done some work on it for the word-browser. Just look the code 
(desktop\rebol.com\tools\word-browser) :

- There is a patch to the resize function (maybe you can use it to 
refresh the list to the same size?) line 65

- There is a scroll-text-list func (line 414) that is called by the 
window/feel (line 381) for the mouse-wheel
Have also a look at line 259 : it's what is done to refresh the words 
text-list when you select a different category.

Janeks, read-thru is using WAIT, so you get other events while inside 
read-thru
Janeks

[4116x3]
Why FEEL actions (down, up, avay events) behaviour changes when I 
changed LOAD  for a face image to READ-THRU or LOAD-THRU?
Thanks, Gabriele!
So what is the trick, to manage all other events?

It seems, that I had somewhere read about it but now I can't remeber. 
Could you, please, point me to the right direction!
O'k me gone Googling ...
Anton

Mmm.. WAIT always starts the View event system and handles events. 
Perhaps this automatic feature of WAIT is not so desirable . Anybody 
else agree with me ? What's your opinion, Gabriele ?
Maybe an /ONLY refinement should be added to wait only for the items 
specified (not automatically including View events).

Anton: one workaround is to clear the wait-list. Janeks: the behavior 
is not changing, it's just that LOAD blocks your feels, while READ-THRU 
does not block them. this is probably creating problems in your script, 
hard to say exactly what without looking at the source.

to clear the wait-list

 - This works AFAIK because event-port is a normal port and thus in 
 the wait-list. Everything there is processed on wait. 


So you could remove only this port temporary. Other tricks with that 
behavior: with read-thru rebservices/beer would still be active while 
downloading. maybe a bit less responsive, because a /no-wait introduces 
little delays?   

And you can caugh events before everything else, like this:
