It is one I want to tackle though. form validation is a big problem 
too.

I did some validation on forms which I posted.

productivity wise, that is.

but this was validation by type only.

I was able to use the same code to grab the data from forms, validate 
it, and then repopulate the forms

Good methodolgy. just needs formatting ability.

Did you run the earlier version released before today ? You could 
delete the old workstate file.

which in your case should be in the same directory, named %bubble-workstate.r

yes, it works now

nice

just an idea - you may add one-way lines

You can double-click the line ends to toggle three arrowhead states: 
 arrowhead (default), fins (not sure the exact word), and off.

Oh, I see, great :)

The user interface with lines does not work perfectly, you probably 
will have to fiddle with it sometimes.

Nice Anton!

Thanks, Gregg. :)

Ive been wanting something like this! thanks Anton.

Sorry folks I keep adding my responses in the announce group...where's 
that delete button? :  )

send it to feedback ;)

Synapse chat allows you do edit your posts :)

Ryan, cool !  If you have any ideas for the design then feel free 
to suggest them, as the design is not fixed at the moment. Also, 
if there are styles that you feel the need for then suggest them 
and I'll add it to the todo list for consideration.

differrent colors for the bubbles is something I hacked in right 
away. It would be nice to change those on the fly

Yes, that's planned.

Max it would be good to see other color schemes in your demos.

hum, like a pane which shows other colors?  what color schemes would 
you want?

brighter coloured backgrounds, or bitmap backdrops.

Maxim ... very slick. .....   p.s. when I move the main pane, the 
menus in the demo keep their same origin so launch where they originally 
origined instead of dropping down from the new menu location.

hum, strange bug. This only happens if you move the main pane while 
the menus are active, it seems....  once the menu is closed, if you 
move the main window, by any amount, the offset is repaired...


Fixed!  Thanks for the bug report.  will be part of next minor release. 
  :-)

Anton, just playing with your Bubble-doc.  Was wondering if you were 
planning a more general line-segment tool that allows multiple lines 
to be drawn in sequence, single click starts a new segment of the 
line, double click ends segment.  Also a box tool that allows a user 
selectable flood fill.

Very nice work so far.

oh, and of course user selectable bubble colours.

Brock, yes, however it will be a while before I will have time to 
work on it.

regraph: Nice stuff Maxim ;) That's what always came to my mind when 
someone complained DRAW shapes cannot be 'controlled'.

hehe, but do you know how complex the solution is?

liquid makes the real time management of this easier, because of 
all of the implicit processing going on.. but the actual technology 
behind it is quite sneaky  ;-)

I'm actually drawing TWO canvases.

which are always in sync

I haven't seen the code but I guess you just check against some bitmap 
mask and then search the objects in an array or so...

not even  :-)  that would make it less than real time.

I draw a second (different, but similar) bitmap and then retrieve 
the color at that position.

yep...that's what I meant by the 'bitmap mask'

I remember I did lot of simmilar tricks in the arcadia game engine 
editor http://www.rebol.cz/~cyphre/arcadia-editor.jpgwhere the graphics 
rendering has been done completely in DRAW(I mena the old DRAW from 
1.2View) - lot of fun :)

with liquid being lazy, its processing the least so all it neads 
to refresh on any element change is that AGG line block and then 
it just reassembles the draw list.  updating both lists when it needs 
to (not all changes will actually rebuild the 2nd draw block look, 
since it does not share all properties )

nice, now just make some cool vector gfx editor :)

yes, the next step is to add CV in the default !glob class, so that 
you can link your values with little dots (which are also draw shapes, 
when displayed)

Maxim - Cyphre is here so use his presence to give us some spoilers 
on R3 View :-)

Cyphre, don't you have any demo of new View? Released somehow .... 
by accident? :-)

I wanted to post some cool demo with 3D accelerated hi-quality GUI 
from R3 on X-mas but got harddisk crash day before release so all 
my work is lost :-/

LOL
