how to add, remove  drawable items

or define a dialect for this purpose

the issue is not to create synchronisation but to have a good interface

the syncronisation part is trivial, i''ve done it in "easy drawer" 
script

Updating my script to latest rebgui .. have to do show-color: :set-color 
etc as too much code to change.

what's the equivalent of 'set-sizes  now?

and 'set-fonts ?

And where is this error from ?

make object! [
    code: 300
    type: 'script
    id: 'no-value
    arg1: :on-focus
    arg2: none
    arg3: none
    near: [focus-action: :on-focus 
        unfocus-action: :on-unfocus 
        init:
    ]
    where: 'init
]

ctx-rebgui/widgets/rebind is what you're looking for. Note that if 
you're using request-ui then this does it for you. Basically each 
widget now knows how to refresh itself when relevenat colors, sizes, 
relevant or effects are set/changed.

Error looks like it comes from old drop-list code.

I ask the user to choose the text size etc at startup ...

ctx-rebgui/sizes/font: new-size
ctx-rebgui/widgets/rebind
reshow-main-display (if relevant)

Ok, I see rebind.

I am using your drop-list code .. no changes.

I see 'process-keystrokes has now gone.

I was adding function key handlers there .. 

eg. f1 [ f1-handler ] f2 [ f2-handler ]

...

Does your app specify an on-focus trigger anywhere? If so, which 
widget?

no ...

don't use any on-focus triggers

process-keystrokes has been inlined into the display function. This 
fixes those errors where typing while the focus is on a button placed 
the characters into the previous field/area with focus.

Ok, so I can add my function key handlers there then.

Have you thought of adding them to rebgui ?

afterall, they are on the keyboard !

Are these global in nature or specific to a display?

mine are global .. and are just redefined by the user at startup.

e.g.

	display/F9 "Test" [...] [print "I pressed F9 on this display]

AT what point do you get the focus error? On app startup or tab navigation?

don't understand

Does the focus error occur before anything is displayed?

on app startup

I have one password entry screen, then a status window, and then 
before the main window pops up, I get this error.

password screen closes, status window appears, and then the error

Can you grep your source code for "focus-action: :on-focus" ... that 
line doesn't exist in the standard SVN source. Using any custom widgets?

drop-tree ?

yes, its in drop-tree

Is that a critical widget for you?

No, I am removing it now.

It was nice to have but no critical

chart, 
drop-tree, 
grid & 
input-grid need a bit of work to get 
them working again with Beta 2.

Ok.

What do you think then of adding global function key handlers?

Not a bad idea. How do you specify them (i.e. if not via a display 
refinement then where/how)?

It would make it easier for me each time I have to merge my sources 
with yours ;-)

well, I just have these functions f1-handler: does []

and just redefine them when I need to use them.

ie. stubs

f10 is inaccessible though

it appears to be trapped by windows

So they reside in the global name space, or do you define them within 
ctx-rebgui?

global name space
