World: r3wp

do you have other cool snapshots ?

Steeve, http://rebol.hmkdesign.dk/files/r3/gui/index.rsp

you should update your blog, i chek it very soon, but nothing new 
since several weeks

thx fot the link

I would love to, but my blog tool is broken. There won't be anymore 
posts on that blog.

soo sad...

I hope to get a new blog at some point.

Same url?

Henrik currently, i'm heating your bandwith  ;-)

no, it will be a different place.

Steeve, my wifi antenna is not running very well right now, so there 
might be speed issues.

[http://rebol.hmkdesign.dk/files/r3/gui/071.png]   looks like my 
easy-drawer tool ;-)

I'm looking forward to port Canvas RPaint to R3. :-)

In the future, we will need a good repository for draw snipets to 
share cool draw blocks.
Perhaps Devbase could have a special section to share those

and another too for animations

*another one too

yes, that would be cool.

you should think about a standard definition for such snipets (0 
centered, normalized size, etc...)

I like how you distinguished a toggle button.

We needed that.  Need it for a rotary also - something to give us 
something that tells us "hey I'm a rotary"

yes, I have some ideas for rotary.

I really like Toggle though - good work!

Yeah Henrik is very good as a style man

Maybe a rotary should be more oval.

rectangular but with an oval border over the face.

i dislike oval stuffs ;-)

yeah I think it still needs to be overall rectangular but something 
to distinguish it.

i will see a stuff like toggle but with arrow instead of bars

Good idea also.

with a slinding text effect when the button is pressed

The fonts look way better in those pictures

Rich text?

I hope we can improve the font antialiasing. I know AGG allows many 
more tricks with fonts than we can see.

Paul, every single string is basically rich text. We're just not 
using it everywhere.

so we have vectorial modifications capabilities

Don't know - just that fonts always look crappy in REBOL2.

In DRAW, when you write some text, you can replace a single string 
with a rich text dialect block.

I think you can lift that capability into the style.

Yeah I have seen and used that before.  But the default text always 
looked crappy - I always had to resort to using draw.

yes, that's because in R2, you basically have two different rendering 
engines: View for everything VID, and DRAW for special drawings. 
In R3 there is only DRAW.

I don't know what R2 View is based on.

Well that is already sounding like a dramatic improvement.

It is. It's much more flexible and thanks to the much lighter View 
engine in R3, it eats much less memory and is much faster.

Sounds good! Flexible, less memory and faster. It's like x-mas! :-)

Paul - there is more to the View engine. It is sometimes reported 
being 10 or more times being faster. Whole R2 View compositing engine 
was scrapped, and replaced by AGG one. AGG is our main engine now 
...

Still REBCODE would be cool for some effects ;-)

Henrik, I need to go change my shirt, I drooled all over myself looking 
at all of your styles.

hmm, maybe I should post short script of how to download all the 
files at once to your hd :-)

Brock - do you like Henrik's work? Me too. Although I hope we move 
away from 80, 90ties grey coloring. I initially did not like Carl's 
skin, but now I think it looks cool too :-) I hope it stays as an 
alternative :-)

For me the buttons are too heavy and I don't have a small resolution 
screen at all. But I believe it's easy to change it.
