World: r3wp

I have submitted a feedback to 'AltMe'... and doing a search on RAMBO 
to see if there is an entry for this as well.

I experienced View crashes with hibernate on Windows. But it seems 
to me if the window is minimized before hibernate it's more stable.

Hibernate on Windows causes unexpected behavior, but no crashes for 
me

The View crash when system resolution changes under Windows is well 
known bug. I guess Rebol is not properly handling the WM_DISPLAYCHANGE 
event of WinOS.

IMO View OS wrapper should be strenghtened in general. It would not 
hurt to properly detect two monitors or TV output, if possible. I 
can see that MANY apps get it incorrectly, e.g. they simply call 
center-screen or such a function, and half of the dialog box is on 
one string, the other half is on second one :-)

Is anyone else using 1.2.9 and seeing their Send mode (enter or ctrl+s) 
stuck, so you can't change it? I can click the button, but it won't 
chagne the setting.

Yes same here Gregg

I got 1.2.9

DOH! It's me. I was clicking the wrong button. It's the pencel, not 
the button next to the text.

I only have to change it when I use a new world, so I always forget 
that. I think I've mentioned before that it's a poor UI layout for 
that.

Ah same here.  I thought it was that other one as well.

Partly because the status is so far away from where your context 
is.

At least it wasn't just me that was confused. :-) Thanks Paul.

Yep I was thinking the same thing

np

altme 1.1.29 linux crashes during startup when the linux sound-daemon 
is already occupied by another application and altme uses sound..occeured 
using the oss sound daemon..

addon: and altme is backgrouned by starting like this "altme &"

tried using Alsa instead ? on my Mandriva 2007 Altme install I don't 
have the sound prefs running so not really sure if it works

Is possible to start an altme world server  from a non-graphical 
enviroment  like the linux shell

??

Sorry if is OT, I was unable to  found the answer inside the AltME 
home page...

I believe you can.

Alberto: No not without  their server version.

That's the one I was referring to.

I suspected that... Anyway thanks to Tomc and Graham.

(in need altme to correct my speeling, reichart are you listening)

he's probably going to tell you that you should request it via feedback 
;)

Yup...

Formal channels ensure everything is logged.

Is there an AltME preference setting for fonts? I have the same font 
issue w/altme on Linux that I described on the mailing list, but 
no convenient altme/user.r file to fiddle with

Sadly no, this is a deep issue with Rebol/Linux/Fonts

Ah well, that's what I was expecting. Sticking with altme in VMWare 
and the Viewtop on Linux for now.

Are the problems with scrolling on Windows a Rebol/View problem or 
an AltME problem? 

I don't seem to get the problem on Linux.

Is it possible to start AltMe so that it will start a preset world?

Is it possible configure AltMe so that private groups are visible 
only to group members ? Currently they a visible for all.

Is it possible to start AltMe so that it will start a preset world?
 -yes: "C:\Program Files\altme\altme.exe" -w "Rebol3"

Is it possible configure AltMe so that private groups are visible 
only to group members ?
 private groups *are* visible only to group members

http://www.altme.com/guide/advanced.html

and in your prefs, you can set it to auto-return to last visited 
world in your user setup.

Janeks, do you know that you can right click on groups...and then 
make it private, then select people that are part of teh word?

I would like to START world not login in the world automaticly!

Private groups are visible ( to all members, but

Private groups are visible to all member but accessible only to group 
members. I would like to hide them from other non group members.

Sorry, about second! I was wrong - such behaviour are caused by multiple 
AltMes opened simultaneously for the same world.

What about new adding of new features to AltMe? If funding would 
be available? I am lacking some simple project management possibilities. 
The simplest thing could be just to add progress bar for tasks.

Yeah, you want one feature, then somoene else wants another....soon 
you might as well use Qtask...

O'k! I like Rebol so it seems that alternative could be Rebol IOS. 
There are Project management reblet.

Reichart - interesting note - "...so you might as well use Qtask". 
After Carl's announcement of project plans, I once again had that 
special feeling (maybe an incorrect one?), that IOS had some nice 
feeling, that attracted me to the system. For me, IOS was an infrastructure, 
upon what your apps are delivered, docs synced, etc.

Having kind of mixture of free IOS-like architecture (plus ability 
to run paid apps there), is imo still UNMATCHED by any web system 
- so far, web systems are just - wishfull thinking ...
