World: r3wp

Rebolek - thanks for the info. I would try to change it even if it 
was your implementation, just as an excercise to become familiar 
with draw blocks for the first time. Henrik's suggestion was to use 
plain colored boxes, to become better familiar with borders, margins, 
paddings, edges and all that stuff :-)

You're of course free to write new skin for scroller or any other 
style, because we're not going to do much about it right now. You 
can also try to write scroller as coumpound style of two arrows and 
one slider but I do not recommend this overkill.

hi, do you have some demo script to show quickly all your work ?

how to use style table ?

at this time, there is only the style browser, if that is released. 
the next version should contain all tests and demos.

right now, the team is busy writing docs, fine-tuning the resizing 
system and working on database reactors.

Have read much noise here.
Just sitting on the side of the REBOL river.
Everything that will come is a gift for me.

The river is colouring red :-)

Any new timeframe of the new release? Was very busy, so no work on 
porting demo done on my side. Just trying to align the timeframe 
for next week ....

afaik, Cyphre is working on it right now and it should be out soon

I think he's just finishing some docs.

I have done a new version of the demo, with a page of docs, and I 
was waiting for the new release of R3-gui, but if it does not come 
this evening, I will deliver it.

I have just checked, the new version (1993) is released http://www.rm-asset.com/code/downloads/files/r3-gui.r3
. I will try it

There will be one last minute fix... we are just assembling everything.

ok,thanks

Downloaded everything ... the all styles looks very impressive.

Great work guys

When you hover over a tab, the indicator changes to red.  The green 
indicator indicates the current tab, right?  So, you actually lose 
information.

We know about it, will be updated next time

Would it hard to create a different indicator of what the current 
tab is . .. such as a higher tab?

That is what Cyphre prefers, I am curious which approach "prevails"

I think a higher tab has more visual impact

and is closer to the metaphor of pulling a tab out of a filing cabinet... 
in real life tabs don't change color

yes, in real life buttons change colour neither when you point at 
them

actually it changes red to indicate that when you click it, it closes 
tab (which doesn't work right now, as I see)

maybe it should show cross instead

higher tab for active is good idea

Hmm... electronic switches which are physical objects do change color 
if so designed

my preferences regarding changing the looks of elements you are pointing 
at are different anyway

electronic switches which are physical objects do change color if 
so designed

- I guess, that it does not suffice to point at them, you have to 
at least touch them,don't you?

Yes, but my laptop has touch enabled

...and, when they change colour, they actually change their state, 
don't they?

I'd also prefer to lose the line under the tab so it looks like _H_ 
instead of ___

Yes, there's a state change

for the active tab

So, that is the difference between "do not change when pointed at" 
versus "do change when touched/pressed"

lose the line - I agree but in that case the content of tab must 
have same background as tab-button so it will blend toghether

regarding difference .. the selected indicator should be different 
from the hover indicator

no doubt, as far as my preferences go

well, I'm used to the line being there .. no big deal

the other argument is  that a tiny led indicating current tab which 
uses 5% approx of the tab surface vs the 100% if you raise the height 
of the tab

or 130% of the unselected tab size

current tab buttons are to big for my taste, so some changes to their 
look will be done definitely.

to=too

Agree .. .maybe 1/3 of current size

What's the current font size?

I think 12 and bold

btw, the same argument applies to the toggle button ... a tiny led 
to indicate state does not have a large visual impact

Some of those color combinations I find hard to read ..like the white 
text on a gray/white button background

ooops... I crashed rebol3 .. in the table, I clicked on "2" to clear 
the table, and then the down arrow .. and it's crashed
