World: r3wp

no, but it may be that my server is caching the files. I have some 
trouble with that.

restarted the server. try again, if there are problems.

doh! wrong server, one sec.

done

the same result ... I would expect y size of field being bigger?

it is indeed a bit too small, but the text alignment stays inside 
the field for me.

Is anyone writing a styles demo?

I see the random characters are now gone from a button with no name

I get same result as Pekr, cursor appears outside of the field and 
the text appears too hight

and the cursor height exceeds the field top border

Graham, what version of Windows are you using?

W7P

http://screencast.com/t/MDJkNWE4MD

Note the left part of the W is also cut off

I'm still getting a divide by 0 error for an area as well

dunno if that is supposed to fixed or not

This is what I've got: http://box.lebeda.ws/~rebolek/pix/rebol/r3gui-01.png
. Left window is my current working version, right window is version 
from Henrik's server.

This is XP under Parallels.

current skin goes into very unpleasant direction :-) E.g. field top 
border makes it feel like text is shifted towards the top ....

Skin is still just temporary. Functionality and bug-fixing is priority.

Guys, XP is obsolete!

Maybe font metrics differ under XP and Vista/W7.

are we using the same binaries and gui source?

I downloaded R3.exe from henrik's site ... and the gui but he says 
it might be caching old versions

I agree with Graham - while I still am not properly used to Vista 
after 3 years of usage, XP is 2002 = 8 year old system - guys install 
Windows 7 and test there :-) Before GUI is finished, XP will be even 
more obsolete :-)

I'm using the same binaries Henrik posted here.

REBOL [
    title: "Untitled"
    build-date: 24-Sep-2010/8:46:56+1:00
    build-flags: [console log]
    revision: 0
    release-type: release
    language: en
]

where do you get this info from, Graham?

For the left window from my screeshot I used my newest working version, 
for the right window I used r3gui from Henrik's site.

it's the script header for the gui

if you mean left side with "this is title" then your text seems lower 
than "text field" on right

Looks like both of you are using Parallels

Yes, it's different. the text in "this is title" window looks better 
positioned to me.

yes, the right version text appears eccentric

Ok, so I need to try it under W7. Maybe it's something that can be 
solved in host-kit.

is there stil a cache problem from my version?

the revision 0 thing in the header will be fixed, once the build 
system can get a revision ID from SVN. if anyone knows how to do 
that, I would appreciate it.

`svn info` will give you, amongst other things, the latest revision 
for a repository (can also be used directly with a repository URL). 
There's also some helper programs such as "svnversion" (should come 
with SVN) or SubWCRev (comes with TortoiseSVN).

ok, thanks, will test that

I cannot reproduce font offset problem under W7 (Parallels), looks 
same as in XP (Parallels).

I'm using Win 7 64 bit - getting the same kind of offset as Petr, 
but not exactly the same - in his screen cap, the "ddddd" is almost 
touching the border of the field and is on top of the shadow. For 
me, the text is just under the shadow, but is still offset

maybe it is some Aero thing, system GUI metrics, etc. ....?

I can see almost same result as Pekr under XP = the text not properly 
verticaly centered

It's same as Rebolek's right version

Also it looks that Pekr's version is even more moved to left and 
top

And I can see one important bug - it's not possible to change language 
(CTRL+ALT) in Rebol window.

I got the new exe and dll, the re-downlaoded r3-gui.r3, dialog and 
validation too, but get this error when clicking on a button in the 
dialog demo:

** Script error: path win-gob/text is not valid for none! type

** Where: any view either create-dialog request-user do switch applier 
apply if

foreach if do-face if actor all do-style if do-event do-event do-event 
either ap

plier wake-up loop applier wait do-events if view catch either either 
applier do


** Near: any [opts/title win-gob/text "REBOL: untitled"] ds: screen/s...

Thanks for posting though Henrik!

validation is not tested with the new styles, so there may be some 
things going wrong. thanks for the report.

It looks like the feature for keeping several draw blocks in the 
same style was removed or changed by accident. this means that the 
validation icons won't work, so I have to find a different way to 
test validation. I want to separate the dialog code from validation 
and then make a proper validation test window, so you can look at 
the code and see how it works.


Furthermore, there is a database extension, I want to test more: 
Parts of validation (the scoping part) was inspired by this one and 
I think it would be good to get this out in the open, as it can be 
extended either to a file database or any SQL database by the community. 
The point of it is to make it very simple to connect the logic of 
a form to a database record and it works a bit differently from setting 
up a regular form.
