ctx-rebgui/rebface -> internal object .... hum let me see

ctx-rebgui/rebface replace this by  : listview: make rebface [

** Script Error: listview has no value
** Where: layout

** Near: listview 80x60 data [["Title 1" text "Title 2" check "Title 
3" image "Title 4" image "Title 5" text] ["Line 1:1" fals
e l...

yeah I saw that ...

i'm trying to find a solution rebgui moved more than I expected

ok sorry too much change  well a fast solution would be i think to 
copy the liste-view code after rebface[   and paste it to the regui.r 
file where belongs table: make rebface ]

but this provide a temporary solution i'm not sure there is no other 
rebgui interfaces that diseapear

hum as I  thought all the widgets interface in rebgui completly changed

Ok so sorry for the time lost

I was just curious to see what you had there...no prob.

nice

and that's a pic of the pre alpha version the 5.2  version was more 
accurate

if you can put your hand on a rebgui 0.38 that widget should work

is that a working anamonitor??

I see a [ana] button in your picture

Cyphre sent me this code and has also placed it into SVN

>> display "" [ mt: table options [ "data" left 1.0 ] data [ "a" 
"b" ] return button "select" [ mt/select-row 1 system/view

/caret: mt/pane/1/pane/1/text system/view/focal-face: mt/pane/1/pane/1 
show system/view/focal-face]] do-events

which allows one to select the rows with cursor after selecting a 
row programmatically.

ana  button call for anamonitor wich helps me to debugging and no 
my list-view don't works anymore with recent rebgi version (it was 
done with rebgui 0.36 ... )

debuging with anamonitor 2.0  is moreaccurate than  setting probe

w: has [][
	display "" [
		f: field
		do [ set-focus f ]
	]
]

display "test" [
	button "Focus Test" 20 [ w ] 
	return
	text-list 45x45 
	data ["W" ] [
		switch face/selected [
		"W" [ w ]
		]
	]
]

What's going on here?  If you use the button, the field f focuses 
okay.  Use the text-list, and the focus does not appear.

the equivalent VID code


w: does [
	view/new layout [
		f: field
		do [ focus f ]
	]
]

view center-face layout [
	button "Focus Test" 90 [ w ] 
	return
	text-list 100x30 
	data ["W" ] [
		switch face/text [
		"W" [ w ]
		]
	]
]

works as expected.  No focus issues.

Ashley, can this be fixed easily?

I just used the tour.r on the latest rebgui.

There you can select a color for a button, but as soon as the mouse 
hovers over the button, the colors switches to the defaults.

Is this by intent or is there a way to keep the selected color(s) 
?

the latest tour.r is experimental.

What is the last stable version?

I thought it is a problem with the  latest widgets and not with the 
tour.

colour scheme and things changed with the last version.  Try the 
one before.

my buttons don't change colour

Ok, I tried version 111 and there the buttons keep their color.

can this be fixed easily?
 ... I'll try and grab some time to look at it later tonight.

The culprit is the face-iterator function in %rebgui-widgets.r ... 
the engage function is doing a 'show *after* the on-click action 
is fired. I won't have access to my dev box until the weekend, but 
at first glance it looks like moving the show may be all that is 
required. Other widgets, such as button, typically have an engage 
function like:

	...

 upÊ Ê Ê Ê Ê Ê Ê Ê Ê Ê Ê [set-color face colors/theme-dark face/action/on-click 
 face]
	...


for this very reason (i.e. always perform the action last to avoid 
focus loss).

I'm not seeing this ... http://trac.geekisp.com/rebgui/browser/rebgui-widgets.r#L438
the show is before the action is called ?

I think it's the show on line#298 that's the problem ... but I need 
to physically debug it to be sure.

I looked at that too .. and it didn't make any difference.

Does RebGUI have anything like roam.r or will roam.r work with RebGUI?

roam.r is Carl's object browser.


Specifically, what I want is to enter a record and see it listed 
in a window.  If I click on a record in that window, I want to see 
it back in the entry fields so I can edit it. Has anyone done this 
using RebGUI?

Kinda ... maybe ... it might be a start; check out http://www.rebol.org/cgi-bin/cgiwrap/rebol/view-script.r?script=rebdbgui.r


It's a sample I wrote for someone a long time ago.  It links the 
GUI fields to a RebDB database.  One way of doing it anyway.

Ashley were you able to confirm the cause of the focus issue?

Still debugging it ...

Thanks.

I presume it's the same issue trying to prefill some fields from 
a table selection and then set the focus to one of those fields.

Found it, and fixed in build #114. Basic rule in RebGUI is to fire 
actions on 'up and 'alt-up (to ensure they occur after unfocus) ... 
face-iterator was firing actions on 'down and 'alt-down. A nasty 
bug that's been there for a long time (and explains why I had trouble 
getting some requestors working in the past!).

just the face-iterator then?

Hope this fixes a lot of focus issues I've had then!  ;)

Yes and yes ;)

I wondered why you were using the down keys and not the up.

Wow .. it all works now!

Excellent. Any other major bugs/show-stoppers while I'm still in 
debug mode?
