why do the RebGUI examples quit right away?
Ex:
Rebol []
do %rebgui.r

display/close "Example" [
    text "Closing the window will change its title."
] [show-title face "Closing ..." wait 1]

I have to add a 'halt' in order to see any of the examples but then 
the examples don't work!

gordon, because you need to add do-events at the end

(for some reason I'm unaware of at this time)

Thanks.  I'll give it a try

Yep.  That worked.  Thanks again.

how do you usually aproach encapping your app using RebGUI?

just encap

I know - but if you want to have all in one exe file as a result? 
You have to somehow "include" your code, no? 'do is not enough, is 
it? (as it would expect it being placed in external .r file ...

not understanding ...

tour.r is an example of script that can be encapped

will look in tour.r .... but normally, when I use rebol and encap 
something, if you have "do %rebgui.r", then that file is not being 
encapped, the app expects it it on your hd ...

I could use prebol, using include, but then I have to adapt my scripts 
all the time with single change, as rebol itself will not understand 
preprocessor instructions ... belongs to SDK probably ...

pekr, I built my own "compiler" for such things and use make files 
to build projects like this. I'd imagine that would be simple to 
do?

yes, probably the way to go, or maybe I should look for Ladislav's 
include.r script ....

I'm having trouble running the list-view.r demo.  The error message 
that comes up is:
list-view has no value
  where: layout  Near: list-view 100x80 data [[...

I've checked and found the list-view widget in rebgui-widgets.r so 
I added that to my test program as follows:

do %../rebgui-widgets.r

and I get the following error message:

Error: colors has no value  near: color: colors/edge


this latest error is happening during the execution of the "do rebgui-widgets.r" 
as the statement following this  is not being reached.

All other demos seem to work okay.

Pekr, the SDK trick we use in RebGUI is to have the following lines 
in your script:

	#include %rebgui.r
	unless value? 'ctx-rebgui [do %rebgui.r]


These appeared in earlier versions of %tour.r but were [inadvertently] 
removed. I'll add them back in.

Gordon, the demo directory and scripts (bubble-menu, list-view & 
triggers) were part of earlier releases. The directory was removed 
when the source was migrated to SVN, and all non-stable widgets (including 
list-view, bubble-menu and a few others) were removed. There is no 
need to "do %rebgui-widgets.r" as this is included directly in the 
new merged %rebgui.r script (and invoked from %rebgui-ctx.r if you 
run from the SVN source direct). LIST-VIEW is an important widget 
which we are hoping Henrik will be able to port to RebGUI from the 
excellent work he has done on this already.

I'm trying my way of creating templates, but have come across a problem 
with the check-group.  This takes, none, true and false as values, 
these are in the global context.  If I define more local words with 
the same names as these, how I can set them to the values in the 
global context?

eg:  ... /local true ][ true: value-as-defined-in-global context 
... ]

context [true: system/words/true]

func [/local true] compose [true: (true)]

thanks.

give that a go

there are also #[none], #[true], #[false]

which are directly processe by load, giving the values, not the words.

but looks ugly.

are Robert's/Cyphre's changes already checked against official archive?

Is this a rebgui error ?  There is an error in your template: make 
object! [
    code: 400
    type: 'math
    id: 'zero-divide
    arg1: none
    arg2: none
    arg3: none
    near: [visible / total]
    where: 'view
]

i'm not dividing by total anywhere, so perhaps it's part of the rebgui 
display function?

visible sounds like resizing.

maybe some face has a 0-size?

let me check

sometimes "echo on trace/functions on" helps, if you activatge it 
shortly before the crash.

but its hard to read.

odd .. it displays this large template, and then crashes the second 
time round

they're all anonymous widgets

i'd better make sure i'm not screwing anything up ...

maybe it tries to scale it down? calculates ones and does an auto-resize? 
and something gets to small?

I might be doing something bad when i try and restore values ....

visible and total are variable names I tend to use. It might be some 
of my recent code...

guyyyys, pleaaaaase, when latest changes will be synced? :-) Or are 
you suggesting I should install CSV product? :-)

it's up to Ashley

so when I install some CSV product, I will be able to reach it? What 
product do you suggest?

real rebolers use always the betas :)

CVS I mean :-)

we never have anything but beta

svn you mean ;)

Indeed, area.r contains this line:
					face/pane/ratio: min 1 (visible / total)

Volker: I think that with Rebol, we are always using beta versions 
:-)
