[!RebGUI] A lightweight alternative to VID

Ashley, please take a look at the xpeers RebGUI stuff. We have added 
a lot and should align the code lines.
Resizing: I have a question how to best implement the following:
- I have three tables from left to right

- I want to make a horizontal resizing in that the middle and right 
table are moved and narrowed.
- The left most tables only uses #X
- The moving should be right aligned to the left side table


I hope you understand what I mean. Using #WX screws up the layout 
as the gaps between the table get to big
any idea how I can get the desired resizing effect?

Not exactly sure what you want, something like this:

	display "Test" [
		table #W options ["" left 1.0] data []
		table #X options ["" left 1.0] data []
		table #X options ["" left 1.0] data []
	]

But than the tables 2 and 3 don't change their width, right? So what 
I want is that all three tables get narrowed and are still horizontally 
aligned with the distance given by SPACE 2x2 for example.

Current system does not support more than one resize per axis (i.e. 
you can have one #W per x axis and one #Y per y axis). What you are 
asking for is a form of proportional resizing.

Robert - what are your xpeers additions to RebGUI?
Robert

We enhanced a lot of the widgets etc. to much to list here. The problem 
is I don't find the time to document everything and publish it. So, 
if someone want to do it, let me know.

are results even mergable?
I will need to release grid too :-( I want to have it out 1.12 as 
is - just a bit of further documenting needed
Robert

It takes time but yes, the changes are mergeable.
Overall I think I have invested about 8000€ into RebGUI so far.

What are you building?

uh, so you use Rebol commercially?
btw - isn't area enhanced to the state, that hiliting text by mouse 
will cause it to scroll?
Robert - any screenshots? I do remember some of your older stuff, 
which looked pretty. I wonder if you use default RebGUI look, or 
you tweked it a bit, to something more pleasantly looking?

area remains a big weakness for me.

Graham, I have build a cost-analysing software. With this it's possible 
to identify cost optimizing potential within the complete supply-chain.

you should sell it to SAP :-)

Yes, it's commercial. The app is supported by hughe benchmark databases. 
I have about 400MB raw data, pressed into 66 MB final database.
Petr, I'm currently the interims purchasing manager for SAP AG region 
Central:-)) So, three days a week I'm in Walldorf.
Let's see... ;-)

Styling: I kept it mostly as is, because of lack of time. It's OK 
but a bit more eye candy would be nice.
Area: I just use it for notes and therefor it's OK.
OT: Just posting from a ICE-3 running at 300km/h

ok, to much OT now...
Again, if anyone want to merge my changes to RebGUI & document them, 
tell me.
You will do the whole community a flavour.

why not just send them to Ashley to look at?
and he can decide what he wants to use.

Good idea, if you email all the changes in a single zip attachment 
I'll probably get around to looking at it a lot faster ;) Any existing 
doco you have would also be nice, saves a lot of time trying to guess 
why certain changes were made.

Hi folks. Is there a way to set a background image for the display. 
IE: Backdrop %image using rebGui?
Ashley

Refer to your question (and answer) of Nov 9.

I wanted to remember the spell check window, and it seems that I 
have to capture the face/parent-face/parent-face/offset and not the 
face/parent-face/offset as expected.  Why is this?
I notice that last-offset is set to face/parent-face/offset ...
I have the same problem also with closing windows.  Sometimes the 
button is in a layout with nothing else.  Sometimes I use unview/only 
face/parent-face and sometimes it works, and other times it does 
nothing.
if the spell checker hits a word which is not in the visible part 
of the screen, does the screen scroll to display this text?
