Hey Fabio,
happy new year to you, too!
Not a problem, RL first. I hope you could sort all things out!?
As I have no spare time right now it is no problem if release delays a bit (at least for me ;)).
Greetings and all the best, Micha
PS: Tomorrow - OASIS - Dresden! *cheering* :)

Hello guys! Things are slowly returning to normality, so I've again more time to continue my work on ScuiLib. Lately I'm experimenting a new feature that will improve ScuiLib a lot, I'm talking about REAL WINDOWS! In the upcoming versions you will be able to open real system windows and not fake windows anymore! I'm patching the library to allow all classes to be available for this kind of feature, actually I'm experimenting with few classes (BevelBox, Labels and Buttons), but seems quite stable at this stage hooo, yes! I'm very happy!!!  ...and yes, the layout engine works well for child windows too!

in 2 or 3 weeks a new WIP Version ??
oh
I will be your VIP ;-)
Btw. Window BUG/Wish
If the second (3...) window outside the visible Area, you have no chance to put them into the visible Area. its possible to put the window automatical in the mainwindow (ofcourse only a bit, or with a Key or something else)

> in 2 or 3 weeks a new WIP Version ?? if RL and work is quiet like now, yes  About your request, I guess you're talking about the demo with three windows... Well, from the code you can manually set the position of a fake-window using scui.FWin_Move()This function is documentated in the guide that comes along ScuiLib Quote: FUNCTION scui.FWin_Move() ------------------------- Move a window to a new position.
SYNOPSIS X_Moved, Y_Moved = scui.FWin_Move( Name, X, Y, Relative )
DESCRIPTION Move the window to the new X and Y coordinates if Relative is nil, otherwise move the window by X and Y pixels. If the new position (or a portion of window) falls off-screen the new position will be corrected only if scui.prefs.AllowOSFWin is set to True.
INPUT Msg : The name of the window we want to move X, Y : The new position (absolute or relative) of the window Relative : If not nil the movement will be relative to the current position, otherwise X and Y will be the new absolute window's position.
OUTPUT X_Moved : Window's total horizontal distance moved in pixels Y_Moved : Window's total vertical distance moved in pixels
EXAMPLE Move the window named 'mywin' to the new position at (50, 75):
scui.FWin_Move( "mywin", 50, 75 )
NOTES You can move closed windows too, when you will open them they will have the new position.
Actually there are no inbuilt hotkeys to reposition a window, maybe I can to implement this function during the fake window creation. Anyway you can always prevent the window to fall outside the visible area, try editing the demo source code and insert the red line: Quote: ; SCUI SHOWCASE ; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- @INCLUDE "ScuiLib.hws" ; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeDisplaySize(610, 550) MoveDisplay(#CENTER, #CENTER) scui.prefs.AllowOSFWin = False scui.prefs.DebugMode = False
Function ButtonID(mess) DebugPrint("---------------------> EVENT HANDLER TEST:", mess.id, mess.event) EndFunction ...
The red line will not allow anymore offscreen windows please ask if you need more infos!

Yep, maybe! I've been busy with LookHere! AROS version in the meantime! I've fixed some oddities But I don't have any problems to send you a WIP if you want, just remember that actually I don't have any examples or tutorials but just a couple of test script used to verify new functions. Did the <scui.prefs.AllowOSFWin = False> trick solved your problem? Stay tuned man

Hi Fabio,
yes i will !
with testscripts is not the same as your good guide...., but I will test your changes.
I have also a little plan for a program, not enough time yet... and my experience could be better!
BTW LookHere! is a nice program, why you dont compile it for Win32 ??
cheers
malsehn
and yes your comment solved the Problem

I didn't compile for win32 because I've the Vista crap on my notebook and seems that it don't like directory scanning, I think because the crap sdministration-only-staff policy If I get the time I'll look in this version too but actually I'm more interested in amiga-like systems. Let me fix some things then I'll send a wip via pm, I'd like to fix a bug in the scroller class, this was asked by Tipsi/Clyde months ago... I'm laaaaateeeeeeeeeeee
