trying to flood this forum?

Canvas group created.

In the new DRAW dialect, should SCALE have influence on LINE-WIDTH?

Better ask in AGG ?

can anyone outside of our firewall ping or see this? http://66.136.133.209

eFistAnt, LOL Why in group "View"? :)

That's one of the groups, I'm 'monitoring'. You made me look, so 
now you earn me a beer in Italy! ;-P

I was trying to extend iterated faces example from http://www.rebol.com/docs/view-system.html#section-10
to support feel/over but with I was not very succesful. Iterated 
faces react on over (I'm changing color of edge) but when I click 
on one of the faces, now all other iterated faces' edges use the 
"over" color. Can anybody help me?

What is a good way to check for certain values in an input field?

Let's say, I want to do an integer field, I've tried this as the 
action function:

if error? try [to-integer value] [set-face face 0]


It works first time, but if I try enter an integer afterwards, it 
just get settet to zero again. Any ideas?

maybe "0"? if you dump the later errors, it should say something 
like "cant append to an integer" your way".

No, doesn't work setting it to "0". Try this:

view layout [field "0" [if error? try [to-integer value] [set-face 
face "0"]]]

You can enter integers at first, but if you enter a letter, it stops 
working.

I had the same problem and did not find a solution

You can note something to rambo:

view layout [field "0" [probe face/text probe value if error? err: 
try [to-integer value] [probe disarm err set-face face "0"]]]

the face/text contains the new value, but 'value itself stays on 
the buggy one.

so this works:

view layout [field "0" [if error? err: try [probe to-integer face/text] 
[set-face face "0"]]]

because ctx-text/edit-text uses /data, not /text.
not updated because of error.
                if flag-face? face return [
                    if flag-face? face hide swap-text 

                    if flag-face? face tabbed [focus next-field face] 
                    action face face/data 
                    exit
                ]

so setting /data by hand works too:

view layout [field "0" [probe face/text if error? err: try [to-integer 
value] [probe disarm err set-face face "0"]]]

pasted wrong version

view layout [field "0" [if error? try [ probe to-integer value] [set-face 
face "0" face/data: face/text ]]]

Thanks Volker!

(dont forget to met rambo ;)

Sent it to RAMBO.

Kru, you need to maintain external state data just like the SELECTED 
index in the example.
Here are my diffs from the original example:

over-index: 0

	;edge: none

		over: func [face action position][
			print ["Over" action]
			over-index: all [action face/data]
			show main-face
		]

			aface/edge/color: either over-index = index [sky][coal]

Can someone point me to the syntax for radio-line?  and check-line?

Mike, a bit here: http://home.tiscali.dk/john.niclasen/vid-styles.html#section-5
If you do e.g.: 
layout [mycheck: radio-check "something"]

then mycheck/data will be true or false. Is that, what you needed?

view layout [radio-line "one" radio-line "two" radio-line "a" with 
[related: 'my-alphabet-radios] radio-line "b" with [relate
d: 'my-alphabet-radios]]

Thanks Anton and John.

Shorthand for "with [related: 'group]" -- radio-line "one" of 'group

Anybody here with already done notes on text-list internals (lc, 
sn, cnt...) ???

Is it possible in the VID style "key" to check, if SHIFT is pressed 
too?

sorry, lol confusing

I want to check, if e.g. '1' is pressed on the numeric keyboard together 
with SHIFT.

hmm it's probably not, because those keys then send HOME, END, and 
so on.

I put a VID screen on some mySQL data (using the Doc's protocol) 
and allowed paging through it using the left and right arrows. Worked 
fine for a small database; very fast refresh of the page. 

When I used the same approach on a larger DB with some TEXT fields, 
it started to hang at the same record when going '"right".   


After much trial and error and guessing, I think it is because the 
database is not quite fast enough to refresh the screen to keep up 
with holding the key down.   


I put it sub-second wait in before the screen reshows its values 
and the problem went away.   	ie wait 00:00:00.005   


I don't think it is a database problem because it could happen with 
slower devices such as files. 


Is this consistent with what others have seen or am I 'fixing' the 
wrong problem?

hmm, I would like to know Mike, what actually were you doing? Because 
- in old DBF x-Base days it worked like that - you simply had "cursor" 
at some db position and you moved by using 'skip command .... of 
course even then, it was wise to use indices and to limit the scope 
of data you work with ...

now SQLs are different kind of beasts -  there is NO live connection 
to sql database (on cursors later :-), you simply send a query, SQL 
server prepares results for you and sends it back to you. So, I wonder, 
how could actually SQL server slow your recordset browsing? And IF 
you were sending new requests after a key-press and wanted to stay 
real-time, then it is quite heroic aproach :-) Within our SAP system, 
you are glad if you receive your query result in few secs.
