[!RebGUI] A lightweight alternative to VID
older newer | first last |
Ashley 30-Jan-2006 [2831] | Good suggestions all. Here is fine for small changes, complete widgets or function rewrites can be placed online or emailed to me. |
shadwolf 1-Feb-2006 [2832x2] | graham needs a good relevant stable and easy to set tooltip system. Some time later i proposed a style tooltip hudgly over ridding the common VID styles adding a way to set tootips on normal VID widgets |
so the design for tootips on rebgui can be simple and proposed like this: a field called tooltip on all meaning rebgui widget plus the insertion on those widgets to the event timer / show/hide system for the over viewed text box of the tooltip | |
Ashley 2-Feb-2006 [2834] | This is yet another thing that would be so much easier to implement if feel/detect worked correctly. See RAMBO# 3867. |
Pekr 2-Feb-2006 [2835] | Ashley - Carl announced there is the right time now to gather bugfixes for 1.3.3 and he asked us to remind Gabriele, which bugs we want to have fixed in preference. Maybe you could contact Gabriele about your Rambo ticket? |
Graham 2-Feb-2006 [2836x7] | Anyone know why this doesn't work? |
view layout [ button "Rebgui" [ display "" [ text "Rebgui from Vid" ]]] | |
when I click on the "Rebgui" button .. nothing happens. | |
but this works | |
display "" [ button "VID" [ view/new layout [ text "VID" ]]] do-events | |
ie. RebGUI can display VID windows, but VID can't display RegGUI windows. | |
Ashley, I have modified RebGUi a little..so can you confirm the above ? | |
Ashley 2-Feb-2006 [2843] | Works fine here. BTW, what were the mods? ;) |
Graham 2-Feb-2006 [2844x6] | Just tiny things ... like adding an extra data field for buttons to store stuff. |
And 'display returns view-face instead of nothing. | |
And I have Volker's mods to the area editing. | |
and attempts around other parts of the editor ... to stop crashes | |
Hmm. So, I need to roll back my changes until the above works again :( | |
Very odd... I have my main rebgui application .. which opens up a VID based chat client ( pluginchat.r ). While the chat client is open, some of my rebgui windows using 'display, stop opening. Close down the Vid window .. and it all starts working again. | |
Ashley 2-Feb-2006 [2850] | Not hitting nested do-events? |
Graham 2-Feb-2006 [2851x2] | since you confirmed that view layout [ button "Rebgui" [ display "" [ text "Rebgui from Vid" ]]] works for you but not me... I think it's something else. |
Is there a new distro out ? | |
Ashley 2-Feb-2006 [2853] | 0.3.8 (6-Dec-2005) is the latest. |
Graham 2-Feb-2006 [2854x2] | Ok. I'll download a virgin copy and try this out. |
after I go to sleep first :( | |
Ashley 2-Feb-2006 [2856x2] | Remember it's just do http://www.dobeash.com/files/rebgui/get-rebgui.r now, with the files going to public/dobeash/files/rebgui. |
On that note, would it be usefull for the script to prompt for, "Press Enter for Public dir, anything else for current"? | |
Anton 2-Feb-2006 [2858x2] | It will take a little while to add that functionality. The download script assumes the public cache all the way, so it will be a little tricky. Not really hard, but you will have to be careful. |
Did someone actually need a specific directory instead of the public cache ? I would have thought if someone wants to maintain their own directory, then they can get the files out of the public cache themselves. That way if they are patching they can be sure their patches aren't overwritten by accident. | |
Pekr 2-Feb-2006 [2860] | public cache is piggy aproach :-) I hate it. I never got used to it. The weird idea of having app install somewhere and OS specific cache in documents and settings/username/apps data/rebol ... is weird. Countless of users questions about why Documents is not in C:\Documents ... |
Volker 2-Feb-2006 [2861x2] | Asks security-questions from other scripts. And from own server one needs a download-script too. |
Cache - How to handle different sites without cache? or put cache in c:\Documents ? | |
Pekr 2-Feb-2006 [2863] | no, that is just mine objection. Simply multiuser OS has to have something like profiles, but I am just used to have everything app related in app dir ... |
Volker 2-Feb-2006 [2864] | Always running as admin? |
Pekr 2-Feb-2006 [2865] | probably so .... |
Volker 2-Feb-2006 [2866] | Maybe an installation-choice? |
Pekr 2-Feb-2006 [2867] | but - I am different kind of monster, so just ignore me :-) App which nowadays does not provide me with non-install (registry free) version is crap from my pov. I want fully movable apps ... just copy and run .... |
Volker 2-Feb-2006 [2868] | I guess the moment we do that MS comes finally out with their strict no-admin-os. |
Pekr 2-Feb-2006 [2869x2] | the thing is, that for some small apps, I just copy to my USB pen .... if in such app dir is not everything, I will surely run into trouble ... |
your solution requires rebol installed, that is something I hate and will never do .... | |
Volker 2-Feb-2006 [2871] | Isnt there a no-install-option now? BTWh, does somebody know where the option-descriptions are? There was something with no-desktop too? |
Pekr 2-Feb-2006 [2872x3] | usage |
it is --noviewtop | |
still missing --noconnect, unless proxy code is fixed .... | |
Volker 2-Feb-2006 [2875x2] | thanks. a "to simple" again :) |
should pop up the config-requester first. | |
Ashley 2-Feb-2006 [2877x2] | Minor website changes: Licencing / Development RebGUI is a community project that is free for both commercial and non-commercial use. Submissions, in particular widgets, will be accepted and credited to the author under the condition that they carry these same licence conditions. Download Enter the following command from the REBOL console: do http://www.dobeash.com/files/rebgui/get-rebgui.r To see all the widgets in action type the following from a REBOL/View 1.3.1 (or later) console: do view-root/public/www.dobeash.com/files/rebgui/tour.r |
%get-rebgui.r: tidied up display and added /update refinement to read-thru. | |
Pekr 2-Feb-2006 [2879x2] | ble :-) (do view-rott/uh/oh/eh/what?/typo?/ :-) |
the most common packages, I have in root of my app, or system/ subdir ... so e.g. cyphre-styles, reddb, mysql, rebgui .... or how guys you simply pack or distribute your app then? doing with cache aproach is imo oncorrect, especially if you don't distinguis version of rebgui in the path. What if I don't have time to adapt all my apps to new version? above aproach shares rebgui dir for all apps ... wrong imo .... | |
