[!RebGUI] A lightweight alternative to VID

the button disappears .. eventually.  Odd.  The text remains behind 
though. Like the Cheshire cat.

Reichart, sort off. As I use for my apps, I have hired Cyphre (until 
you snapped him away) to make a bunch of extensions to RebGUI that 
I need.

Is there a data facet to the button that I should not be using for 
my own purposes?
Ashley

button/data is a block containing 3 button state images ... so using 
that would be bad. ;)
Anton, link updated. Thanks.

Ahhhh....
Ooops...
No wonder the button image disappears!
Are there any user facets that one can use?

 ... not as such (i.e. no VID-like user-data facet); although you 
 can always use something like button/init post initialization.

do %rebgui.r
display "Main Window"  [
	button "Start" 100x100 [	
		loop 5 [
				display/dialog "Modal"  [ button "Close" [ unview ] ]
		]
	]
] 
do-events
halt
Shouldn't pressing the "Start" button lead to the modal window opening 
5x ?
Instead it only opens once.
o %rebgui.r

display "Main" [ 
	button "Open Modal" 100x100 [
		display/dialog "Modal-1" [ button "Close1" [ unview ]]
		display/dialog "Modal-2" [ button "Close2" [ unview ]]
	]
]

do-events
halt
Same type of example ... Modal-1 opens, but never Modal-2
Ok, answer as suggested by Volker is to use 'hide-popup instead of 
unview ...

I've tried to download RebGUI from REBOL Desktop (as suggested on 
http://www.dobeash.com/rebgui.html) but it crashes with:
** Script Error: Cannot use path on none! value
** Where: context
** Near: header/version

Ah, fails on new install. Fix tested and uploaded, please try again.

Ashley: works now, thanks.

I can now use 'unview in a loop as a form of return :)

In 'request-dir, directories starting with "!" are sorted before 
"..", this looks strange.

ah, I can see someone else is using ! trick to have favorite dirs 
at the top :-)
Rebolek
20-Sep-2006
[4793]
yes, "!"and  "_" are very useful for this purpose :)

(The real solution is to use a filesystem with custom tags.)

Petr, what's the state WRT grid widget? Can we see a beta version?
I still didn't made it upload our changes. Sorry. I hope to do it 
tomorrow.

I am very pressed for the free time. I sent what is done to Graham, 
and have only a sketchy doc .... but yes, overall I think it is already 
worth a beta, or alpha at least, as some ppl might object wrt feature-design
I might work on it on Sunday .... to have it realeased on monday 
... the docs need definitely an update ...
Graham

needs a few changes to rebgui as well ...

I expect Robert has RebGui which fits grid too, as it is all done 
by Cyphre, no?

Why does check/data has got values of [true none] and not [true false] 
?
Ashley
27-Sep-2006
[4802]
Check is tri-state: Tick (true), Cross (false) and Unknown (none). 
Cross is selected with a right-click.

hi,  i would like to include rebgui in a *.exe  with rebol/sdk.
must i use create-distribution.r ?
how can i use it ?
thanks for help
someone have news about http://www.xidys.com/rebgui-grid.jpg?????
Ashley

#include %ctx-rebgui.r

or run create-distribution.r to produce rebgui.r and then

#include %rebgui.r


Note that %rebgui.r is also available at http://www.dobeash.com/download.html
, but may not be the latest build.

Uploaded build#34 which closes the following tickets: 21,53,3,44,41,4,5

and fixes a few other problems:

1) Table dividers did not resize

2) Drop-list failed to display when items > available space and direction 
was 'downward
3) Replaced REBGUI-BUILD check with ctx-rebgui/build word

4) Added /caret-head and /caret-tail refinements to show-text (makes 
writing certain on-* type triggers easier)

ticket 53 is still faulty when I just tested it now.

i don't know if I'm not used to these table dividers now extending 
down the whole table .. perhaps we could have an option to turn them 
off??
I grabbed the drop-list by itself ... and I get this error
** Script Error: caret-to-offset expected offset argument of type: 
any-string
** Where: edit-text
** Near: caret: caret-to-offset face view*/caret attempt
Graham

I find the table dividers now visually obtrusive .. is there a way 
to put them on a diet ?
Ashley
17-Oct-2006

I'm adding a 'no-dividers option to the table widget, and looking 
at ticket 53 and the drop-list error ... hopefully I'll get some 
time over the weekend to resolve these.

could text-list be fixed, in the same manner, as table was, that 
scrolling hilite by holding arrow-up (down), simply does not hide 
hilite "under the horizon"? :-)
