Graham, I think I never touched the Rebgui tab panel....

I'm sure you posted some code on how to dynamically remove tabs from 
rebgui panels
Yes, December 8th http://www.lexicon.net/antonr/rebol/rebgui/add-remove-tab-panels.r
Ashley, how do you programmatically select a tab to display?

Ah, thank you.
Hmm, I want to position the caret, by clicking in a text-list, which 
lists sections of the document.
The action in my text-list
[
         __picked: first face/picked
         show-focus ar-text

         system/view/caret: at ar-text/text sections/:__picked/pos
         show ar-text
      ]

now, when I click into the text-list, ar-text is focused, and the 
caret is shown in my ar-text, but when I release the mouse-key, the 
text-list is focused again.
What can I do here?

Ingo .. check this as in http://polly.rebol.it/test/test/rebgui/../../test/rebgui/edit-area.r

Thank you, has this been discussed on AltME once? I tried to search, 
but inbuilt search seems to be barely usable
Graham

[4693x3]
Yes, it has been discussed
:)
I use my memory which is better than Altme's search

It does not solve my problem, though:

edit-area keeps the current focus, while unfocused (to access it 
from the button)

I want the button click to focus on the area (at the new position), 
but at mouse release, the focus switches back to the button.
Graham

can you show some demo code ...
Ingo

[4698]
display "Test button focus to area" [
   button "Pos" [
      show-focus ar-text
      system/view/caret: at ar-text/text 10
      show ar-text
   ]
   ar-text: area {1234567890

When I click on the button, the caret is positioned between 9 and 
0,

but when I release the button, the focus changes back to the button}
]
do-events
Graham

so when you tab back into the area, you want to keep the 0,9 caret 
position?
Ingo

Not exactly. What I want is, that clicking on the button focuses 
the area, and that I am now able to directly type in the area.
Graham

[4701]
oh ...
Ingo

and, at the given position, yes.
Thinking aloud: I guess that the show-focus ar-text should be placed 
in the unfocus event of the button?
Graham
4-Sep-2006
[4704x2]
yes
but show-focus probably sets the cursor to the end again

I'll try to do some patching now ... sorry, I'm on a modem line, 
and need to be erachable by phone, so bye for now.
The following works with button, but not with text-list (which I 
want to use) ...

display "Try to change feel" [
   tl: text-list  feel [
      engage: func [f a e][
         print a
      ]
   ]
   data [ "click"]
   [print 'action]
]
do-events
probe tl/feel
halt

Graham, now that you show me the code, which is now available here
http://anton.wildit.net.au/rebol/rebgui/add-remove-tab-panels.r
I can almost remember writing it !

Ok, the technique used to add/remove tabs from the tab-panel looks 
quite destructive, replacing all the old tab faces with new ones 
whenever a tab is added or removed.
Graham
5-Sep-2006
[4709x2]
So, writing to the old faces won't make things happy
if you have widgets in the old tabs .. are they destroyed as well?
Anton
5-Sep-2006
[4711]
No, shouldn't be. Just the little tab faces themselves are removed 
and forgotten.
Ingo

Sorry, I have some connection problems, so here's the second part 
to above message ... again ... ;-)

When I run the above posted snippet, and click on the text-list, 
I get an output of "action", so the action block is run, not the 
changed engage function.

The 'probe shows, that the engage function has been changed in the 
way I have defined it.

So it seems, that RebGUI holds to an old version of engage for text-lists.

oups the bug is not on text-list but in table widget
i don't find the way to input the ticket !!!
Graham

Hmm.  The add ticket menu is removed!

We were starting to get spam tickets being raised, so you must login 
to raise a ticket now. I've just verified the table error Claude 
found so I'll raise a ticket or fix it which ever is quicker.

Is there a way to trigger an action when the table row changes highlight? 
 If I reorder things using the column headers, the highlight changes 
and I want to initiate an action based upon that.
Perhaps it's a bug that the highlight changes at all when you sort?
