[REBOL] [show-popup] nothing makes sense!
From: moliad::aei::ca at: 27-Mar-2004 11:14
hi,
this is a puzzle for advanced view/face/vid users out there.
I am trying to use inform and/or show-popup and it seems that unless there is
the word 'hide-popup in it somewhere in the vid layout block used to create the
pane, the first thing I touch, makes the popup window close, even the touching
the background.
now, I am puzzled, because I don't get where that gets checked, set or
identified. nothing in show-popup searches for hide-popup in the layout, so how
can it react to that word being somewhere in the face-structure!?
to make things worse, it seems that if the 'hide-popup word is is a sub pane of
the layout, it is not recognized !?
and also, nothing in the layout function searches for the hide-popup word...
so I have NO IDEA as to where that word is being searched for or even how it
gets identified.
there are no insert-event-func calls either in inform or show-popup...
maybe I am way off track here, but so far, that is how the problem presents
itself to me.
I am at a loss of how to solve this one, I'm really missing a detail here.
thanks in advance!
