you can't

add or remove nodes

>> items: [ "a" "b" "c" ]
== ["a" "b" "c"]

>> foreach i items [ display/dialog "" compose/deep [ button (i) 
[ unview ]]] do-events


why does this only display the first "a" button and none after that 
?

use hide-popup ...

User wants to know if they can right click on a radio-group to de-select 
any selection.

I can't get the radio-group to respond to an alt-click.

Do you mean, undo ?

A radio group implies that one option and only one must be selected 
at all times.

It sounds like an unreasonable request. :)

What are the choices the radio group is representing ? Is the radio 
group the appropriate widget in that situation ?

Anton, it's a text generation tool.

So, for example we might have
label "tonsils" radio-group data [ "normal" "abnormal" ]


So, if the user clicks on "normal" then the text generated is "tonsils 
normal" but if nothing is ticked, then no text is generated.

Wouldn't it be better to make that explicit, as in:

	radio-group data [1 "NA"  "normal" "abnormal"]

Easier to see if unset rather than 1/3 set somewhere

Any chance we'll be able to use a 'set-state/info with checks, spinners, 
drop-lists any time soon?

This calls for a radio group with an extra "unset/unspecified" item 
to the left, eg:

                / --(o) normal
unset  (o) 
                \ --(o) abnormal

It would have the same specification as Ashley's example above, but 
the first item is placed to the left of the other items to make it 
visually distinct.

So that's calling for a new widget, or widget variant, of course.

sounds too hard

because of spacing etc

Just go with Ashley's suggestion, then, as it reflects the actual 
states.

This is my attempt at computer generated medical notes 
http://synapse-movies.s3.amazonaws.com/Synapse-chained-macros.wmv

I would like to double click on the choices in the edit-list, but 
that then results in loss of the highlite on the selected word.

Also, I would like to see some way for the text to scroll following 
the highlite, and currently I have to move the slider manually.

Nice work Graham.

Graham, it's really cool.

Impressive as always Graham.

thanks .. now to see if Ashley can help improve the focus/highlighting 
issues :)

Quite possible ... I'm looking at a 'no-focus option that would allow 
you to click certain widgets (e.g. text-list) *without* changing 
focus. This option would be the exception rather than the rule.

Any chance we'll be able to use a 'set-state/info with checks, spinners, 
drop-lists any time soon?

Sounds great!

A set-info func is in the works, but requires some rather extensive 
widget changes (e.g. drop-list and edit-list are different widgets 
at present).

I don't know how easily this can be fixed, but in VID if you highlight 
a text field by dragging across it and move outside the field, the 
highlight stays.  But in Rebgui .. it is lost.

Any chance of having a filter that we can place on a table?

Suggested specification syntax?

Well, we need to be able to specify a column, or a list of columns, 
 and a test on that column(s).

How about having an object that represents each column, and we can 
provide a function for each column, or none! .. and if the function 
returns true, for each column where there is a function, then it 
displays ?

Maybe we can also control the sort order this way as well?

Is there a way I can hook into the table display so that I can apply 
a formatting function to a column?

I've got a value of .004 that is being displayed in scientific notation, 
and so I want to use Gabriele's form-decimal on it at display time.

Yeah, it's too bad about that  ecvt issue in Wine.  It's been reported 
for years now.  Quite a few attempts by people to get patches approved 
have gone by the by.

ecvt ?

Ok.  got it.

I've got a value of .004 ...

 ... best way is to pre-format the data by poking the string form 
 you wish to present it in.

Trouble is, all sorts of functions use the data and expect it to 
be numeric, and not a string.

The problem's a bit more general than table data then ... what happens 
when this decimal value appears in other widgets (e.g. text, field, 
drop-list, etc) ... fix needs to be at the native level ... perhaps 
we need to patch 'form as an interim measure? Is this a windows only 
issue?

Actually it's a wine issue.  I store the data in the table/data so 
am reluctant to form it there as I use the data for various calculations. 
 Oh well, I have now formed it into text.

do you have to be on the tab panel you are replacing to use tab-panel/replace-tab 
?  I see the new layout appear on the current tab.

Ashley, I got an error on these lines in replace-tab

		pane/:num/color: colors/page
		pane/:num/edge: outline-edge


I presume that there was a change to pane a while ago.  Was this 
related to the new look?

Are the function keys accessible under Linux?

do you have to be on the tab panel you are replacing to use tab-panel/replace-tab?
 ... No, see the following test case:

	t: tab-panel data [
		"A" [field]
		"B" [field]
	]
	button [t/replace-tab 2 [button]]

Click the button then tab "B".

... Was this related to the new look?

 ... yes, the new look is an extensive WIP that "breaks" build 112.

Are the function keys accessible under Linux?
