World: r3wp

I'll try something with engage instead of over.

don't worry, just filter it using a state flag.

(if you get too many events)

I am using one already, but the state flag can't be changed with 
over where I need it to change :-)

After fiddling with event-flow-diagram.r, I recommend icon-frame 
detect to check the offset for inside/outsideness. It can also check 
if event/type = 'down [mouse-down?: true]      mouse-down? can be 
set false by engage functions when they detect 'up event.

I think I got it now

cool, sleepies...

woo! it works now

:)

no! the same bug is back

I'm quitting... it works a tiny bit better than before, but it's 
still odd. Don't wiggle the mouse too much while pressing the button 
:-)

Changed it to a combination of detect and engage. I think it's working 
now (crossing all my limbs, fingers and toes)

eyes?

no, that hurts too much

DId not read the thread, only the problem. The trick is to put a 
transparent face over all the others, 'sensor in vid. Then you dont 
get  clicks in your faces, but all is nicely captured by the sensor.

Means put a full-sized face at the end of face/pane

Yeah, try that. So icon-frame contains text, icon, and finally the 
full-sized transparent face.

the detect thing seems to work fine and it shaves off 33% of the 
needed faces. :-) thanks for your help


Anton, the event program is a great demo. don't you want to put it 
some where more visible?

Like my website. :) I just need to get my website ready and published.

How is about clipboard for last version of view?
Is it possible to 
insert in clipboard port image?

I have code to do it for Windows.

I am interested in clipboard copying of images

Hmm!  I am surprised how hard it is to design menues;  so many little 
nuances.

When designing GUI elements: Devil is in the details ;)

That's why people love markup languages

eh ? they do ?

Quick question, how do you force a resize event?

use the mouse?

Is there any other way?

Do you to inject a resize event into View's event handler?

Isn't a resize event without a resize just a repaint?

Not sure what you mean, either:

  view lay: layout [btn "Resize" [lay/size: 400x400 show lay]]

or

  my-evt: make event! [type: 'resize]
  system/view/wake-event my-evt  ;-- doesn't work, another way?

or


  do-on-resize: func [f e][if e/type = 'resize [alert "Resize!!!"] 
  e]
  insert-event-func :do-on-resize
  view lay: layout [btn "Resize" [lay/size: 400x400 show lay]]

are there good articles on memory conservation anywhere? I noticed 
that some times memory usage for LIST-VIEW skyrockets, especially 
when using TO-IMAGE on list columns to generate bitmaps. that is 
not good.

Yes, to-image always produces a new image. There's no way to render 
into an existing image, as far as I know. (Would like that.)

how do you bind layout words to an object easily? I want to set faces 
to variables which are supposed to be local to the context of my 
Tester program. I realize this is really the old "dynamic variable 
list in an object problem" all over again (I run into this very often 
it seems), but was wondering if LAYOUT specifically allowed some 
tricks...

see Avoiding Variable Collisions in http://www.rebol.com/docs/view-guide.html#section-13, 
I guess that is what you are asking for

I was afraid that is what I needed to do :-(

what is wrong with that approach?

because I have quite a lot of variables

(I can suggest improvements)

aha, you do not want to "duplicate" declarations?

well the thing is how variables are initialized when doing an object. 
I've discussed this before, but it would be nice to keep the list 
shown at the top of that example in the docs as a dynamic list. this 
prevents me from having to maintain that list and the layout words 
when doing changes. I guess I need to approach how to make the object 
block differently.

I am wildly trying to guess what you want, although you are not making 
it easy for me :-). Let's see my CFOR function as an example:

well, I may just be going about this backwards

>> cfor [i: 1] [i <= 3] [i: i + 1] [print i]
1
2
3
== 4
>> i
** Script Error: i has no value
** Near: i
>>

is this pattern what you want to be able to do?

well, that's a local variable alright, but this is for an object. 
I think I have a different solution though, so I think you should 
wait with wasting more time on it.

this is for an object
 - it does not matter at all

you just need to know what you want

I know what I want :-) I just need to find out a solid way to solve 
the problem permanently

the solution already exists, see http://www.fm.tul.cz/~ladislav/rebol/contexts.html#section-22
