AltME groups: search

I can't accept your pull request, it's a complete merge of different 
branches (you're probably mixed up several branches, or you haven't 
rebase before submitting the pull request). You need to submit only 
the changes you did. For that, you need to have a clean codebase 
and up-to-date wrt the branch you're modifying.

tiny feature request: Arrow buttons in the calendar event to quickly 
set date -/+ 1 in calendar events

AltME feature request.  Include the date/time as a second column 
a group was last updated.  Since we don't have the ability to synch 
what was read between each instance of AltME that we read, having 
the last date/time listed we could quickly select through the groups 
we have already visited in a previous session on another machine. 
 Although synching what was last accessed would be the ultimate fix.

Gabriele - isn't 'request-date somewhat unfinished?Try 'help request-date 
and look how is /offset described, what it says it accepts (any type) 
and what it really allows to accept (pair) ... Maybe this could be 
improved ...

besides that I wonder, if e.g. request-date as an example, works 
with locale element? I think not ... REBOL locale support is really 
terrible - nonexistant, and I wonder why, if system/locale/months 
is available ...

ah, now I tested it, RebGUI works with system locale - besides that, 
the week starts by monday ;-) btw - could RebGUI code be reused in 
official rebol distro? e.g. as far as request-date is concerned, 
or even request-dir, it is of a much more quality than rebol's built-in 
ones  ....

I had done some enhancements to request-date in the days of "View 
1.3" project (2 years ago).

The result is in RAMBO, but not the code http://www.rebol.net/cgi-bin/rambo.r?id=3058&
So you can find it here with some demo code :

how can I get some deeper context words? :-) I just wanted to check, 
if request-date finally uses system structure month/day names, so 
I sourced it:

request-date: func ["Requests a date." /offset xy][
    result: none
    if none? base [init]
    either offset [inform/offset date-lay xy] [inform date-lay]
    result
]

then I tried to add following:

insert at second :request-date 11 [probe date-lay]

About request-date, I had reworked it for the "first" View 1.3 project 
(2 years ago). It use locales and some other enhancements. Just test-it 
directly :

do http://www.rebol.org/cgi-bin/cgiwrap/rebol/download-a-script.r?script-name=request-date
.r

Pekr, you can do it by binding your 'date-lay to the 'date-lay that 
is already in the function body.

 insert second :request-date bind [probe date-lay] pick pick second 
 :request-date 10 2

(Mmm... request-date is quite an ill-behaved function. It sets 5 
words in the global context.)

Above I have bound your whole block of code to the existing 'date-lay 
word.

It could be better (a more reliable way in other situations) to bind 
just the 'date-lay word in your new code
(ie. only the words which need binding):

 insert second :request-date compose [probe (bind 'date-lay pick pick 
 second :request-date 10 2)]

Diss'ing IDE's might alienate some Smalltalk folk.  I cannot imagine 
maintaining an application suite such as I deal with everyday without 
an IDE.  I just wish it was not eclipse ...  Of course only wimps 
used a Disk Operating System and real men code in machine codes only 
... and real pro's dictated their SNOBOL punch cards to lovely assistants 
...  and ANT scripts are for sissies.  Some must have ridiculed Tcl, 
Expect and TK in their day ... but if my IDE can facilitate my efforts 
to systematically (key word there) shrirnk company''s codebase as 
it becomes more reliable with better test coverage then maybe a refactoring 
browser would be a good tool after all.  Even better if it is an 
integrated part of the IDE, as in Dolphin Smalltalk or Squeak Smalltalk 
or Smalltalk/X or Cincom Visual Smalltalk.  Not that I couldn't survive 
on grep and diff's.  But once the codebase is too large for any one 
person to author or maintain on their lonesome, a tool that remebers 
what you did last and where can be a god-send.  If you want to know 
hell without an IDE join an actuarial department working in APL. 
 There you don't even know if they have talent: you just hope most 
of it works as each quarter rolls around and try to survive year-end. 
 But you know they're smart, cuz after all, they're actuaries - and 
look at all that APL code in all those files ... of course a few 
of them look back wistfully at their student days in C with Borland's 
decent IDE.  REBOL [

===Caveats

---Work In Progress


This is a work in progress. Whether the progress will continue depends 
on the feedback.

---All Rights Reserved


The work is based on the documentation of REBOL View provided by 
REBOL Technology and its mailing list.

All rights to this documentation remain the property of REBOL Technology.

---Plagiarized Examples


Things are shamelessly plagiarized.  There are many experts on the 
mailing list whose work is included here; most notably the examples 
from the REBOL documentation.

---Approach


The approach that this document uses is to use REBOL/View/VID to 
demonstrate its abilities and give a visual tutorial. To enable this 
some changes have been made to the core %easyvid.r program from Carl 
Sassenrath. A scoll bar was added to the right pane because it was 
just too difficult to constrain the examples to the screen real estate 
that was available.

---Order Order


The order of the items needs some work. The easyvid presentation 
approach today does not allow for the drilling down and expansion 
of an outline tree which is needed for a large amount of documentation.


The preferred approach is to put a multi-level tree for navigation 
purposes and then allow navigation up and down the tree. 


===To Do

* make this a true outline tree

* re-organize it better


* update as requested and as possible by suggestions on AltME's REBOL 
world under group EasyVID

* correct numerous flaws


* better scrolling implementation using the updates that have been 
used in other examples such as Didier's %delete-email.r


* allow clipping to clipboard like AltME does on a row for the source 
examples




===Introduction to VID

With REBOL/View it's easy and quick to create your own user
interfaces. The purpose of this tutorial is to teach you the
basic concepts or REBOL/View interfaces in about 20 minutes.

VID is REBOL's Visual Interface Dialect.  A dialect is an
extension of the REBOL language that makes it easier to express
or describe information, actions, or interfaces.  VID is a
dialect that provides a powerful method of describing user
interfaces.

VID is simple to learn and provides a smooth learning curve from
basic user interfaces to sophisticated distributed computing
applications.


---Creating VID Interfaces

VID interfaces are written in plain text. You can use any text
editor to create and edit your VID script. Save your script
as a text file, and run it with REBOL/View.

!Note: Using a word processor like Word or Wordpad is not
recommended because files are not normally saved as text.
If you use a word processor, be sure to save the output
file as text, not as a document (.doc) file.


Recommendation: Look at TextPad from http://www.textpad.com




===Minimal VID Example

Here is a minimal VID example.  It creates a window that
displays a short text message.  Only one line of code
is required:

    view layout [text "Hello REBOL World!"]

You can type this line at the REBOL console prompt, or save
it in a text file and run it with REBOL.  If you save it
as a file, the script will also need a REBOL header. The
header tells REBOL that the file contains a script. Here
is an example of the script file with a header:

    REBOL [Title: "Example VID Script"]

    view layout [text "VID Example!"]

You can also add buttons and other gadgets to the script. The
example below displays a text, list of files, and a button:

    view layout [
        h2 "File List:"
        text-list data read %.
        button "Great!"
    ]

!Click on the examples above to see how they will appear on your
screen.  Click on their close box to remove them.  All of the
examples that follow can be viewed this way.


===Window Management


The code that displays the examples also shows how to manage the 
number of windows that are open.


Look at the show-example block in the code near the end of this script.


The location of the example window is also managed here by keeping 
track of the co-ordinates for the sample. After the sample window 
is moved, the next use will open at the same location.



===Pre-loaded Images


For this script, the image which represented a Portable Network Graphic
definition of an image is held in the script and loaded.


For a small number of graphics, this can achieve some packaging and
performance benefits.


The image "polished" is used through the script to achieve the polished 
steel
look that is one the outer frame.

    backtile polished orange
    button 200x50 "Polished Steel Look" polished 


===Two Basic Functions

Two functions are used to create graphical user interfaces
in REBOL: VIEW and LAYOUT.

The LAYOUT function creates a set of graphical objects.  These
objects are called faces.  You describe faces with words and

values that are put into a block and passed to the LAYOUT function.

The VIEW function displays faces that were previously created by
LAYOUT. The example below shows how the result of
the LAYOUT function is passed to the VIEW function, and the
interface is displayed.

    view layout [
        text "Layout passes its result to View for display."
        button "Ok"
    ]

Click on the above example to view it.

!Note: the block provided to a layout is not normal REBOL code,
it is a dialect of REBOL.  Using a dialect makes it much easier
to express user interfaces.



===Styles

Styles describe faces.  The examples above use the text and
button styles to specify a text line and a button. REBOL has
40 predefined face styles. You can also create your own custom
styles.  Here are a few example styles:

    view layout [

The words like backdrop, banner, box, text, and button are styles.

===Facets

Facets let you modify a style.  For instance, you can change the
color, size, text, font, image, edge, background, special
effects, and many other facets of a style.

Facets follow the style name.  Here is an example that shows
how you modify the text style to be bold and navy blue:

    view layout [txt bold navy "Facets are easy to use."]

The words bold and navy are not styles.  They are facets that
modify a style. Facets can appear in any order so you don't
have to remember which goes first.  For example, the line
above could be written as:

    view layout [txt "Facets are easy to use." navy bold]

Many facets that can be specified.  Here is an example that
creates bold red text centered in a black box.

    view layout [txt 300 bold red black center "Red Text"]

You can create facets that produce special effects, such
as a gradient colored backdrop behind the text:

    view layout [
        vtext bold "Wild Thing" effect [gradient 200.0.0 0.0.200]
    ]

===Custom Styles

Custom styles are shortcuts that save time.  When you define a
custom style, the facets you need go into the new style.  This
reduces what you need to specify each time you use the style,
and it allows you to modify the look of your interface by
changing the style definitions.

For example, here is a layout that defines a style for red
buttons.  The style word defines the new style, followed by
the old style name and its facets.

    view layout [
        style red-btn button red
        text "Testing red button style:"
        red-btn "Test"
        red-btn "Red"
    ]

So, if you wanted to create a text style for big, bold,
underlined, yellow, typewriter text:

    view layout [
        style yell tt 220 bold underline yellow font-size 16
        yell "Hello"
        yell "This is big old text."
        yell "Goodbye"
    ]


===Master Stylesheet 

REBOL holds its styles in a master stylesheet. When you are
sure that you want to share them without having to add the
style sheet line then do it as follows:

First add the style to the master sheet:

    button 200x50 "Define text-note as maroon bold text" [stylize/master 
    [
        text-note: txt maroon bold      
    ]]

    button 200x50 "Define text-note as white italic text" [stylize/master 
    [
        text-note: txt white italic     
    ]]

Then invoke it:

    view layout [
        across
        size 200x200

        return text-note "This shows a master stylesheet style in use." 

        return text-note "This shows another usage of the same style."

        return text-note "If you want to see the other style displayed, click 
        the Add Style section again and then use the other button"
    ]
    
    
===Note About Examples

!From this point forward, all examples will assume that
the view and layout functions are provided.  Only the layout
block contents will be shown.  To use these examples in your
scripts, you will need to put them in a layout block, as was
shown earlier.

For example, code that is written as:

    view layout [button red "Test it"]

will now appear as:

    button red "Test it"


===Face Sizes

The size of a face depends on its style.  Most styles, such as
buttons, toggles, boxes, checks, text-lists, and fields, have a
convenient default size.  Here are some examples.

    button "Button"
    toggle "Toggle"
    box blue
    field
    text-list

If no size is given, text will automatically compute its size,
and images will use whatever their source size is:

    text "Short text line"
    text "This is a much longer line of text than that above."
    image %palms.jpg

You can change the size of any face by providing a size facet.
The size can be an integer or a pair.  An integer specifies
the width of the face.  A pair specifies both width and height.
Images will be stretched to fit the size.

    button 200 "Big Button"
    button 200x100 "Huge Button"
    image %palms.jpg 50x50
    image %palms.jpg 150x50

===Color Facets

Most styles have a default color.  For example the body of
buttons will default to a teal color.  To modify the color of
a face, provide a color facet:

    button blue "Blue Button"
    h2 red "Red Heading"
    image %palms.jpg orange

Colors can also be specifed as tuples. Each tuple contains three
numbers: the red, green, and blue components of the color. Each
component can range from 0 to 255. For example:

    button 200.0.200 "Red + Blue = Magenta" 200
    image %palms.jpg 0.200.200 "Green + Blue"

Some face styles also allow more than one color.  The effect of
the color depends on the style.  For text styles the first color
will be used for the text and the second color for the background
of the text:

    txt "Yellow on red background" yellow red
    banner "White on Navy Blue" white navy

For other styles, the body of the face is the first color, and
the second color will be used as its alternate.

    button "Multicolor" olive red
    toggle "Multicolor" blue orange
===Layout Commands


To drop user interface elements on the canvas according to VIDs 
directional layout controls 

---Across

You are placing elements in a row orientation
    
    across 
    return button "A" button "B" button "C"
    return button "D" button "E" button "F"
    

---Below

You are placing elements in a column orientation

    below 
    return button "A" button "B" button "C"
    return button "D" button "E" button "F"

---Mix

You can mix the directional controls 

    across 
    return button "A" button "B" 
    below button "C" 
    across button "D" button "E" button "F"


---Padding


The pad keyword creates extra padding between styles. It uses a pair 
or integer value. When it is an integer, spacing is created either 
horizontally (across) or vertically (below). When it is a pair, the 
spacing will be created both horizontal and vertically. The following 
example illustrates both uses. First, the buttons "one" and "two" 
are padded with an integer representing 40 pixels in one direction. 
Then the buttons "three" and "four" are padded with a pair representing 
40x40 pixels. 

    across 
    button "one" pad 40 button "two" return 
    button "three" pad 40x40 button "four" 


Padding can be negative.
    
        backtile polished orange
        pad 200x200 button "A"
        pad -100x-100 button "B"
        
---Guide

A guide is a virtual alignment control

      title "Buttons Without A Guide" 
    button "one"   button "two"  return 
    button "three" button "four" return 
    button" five" button "six" 

With an implicit guide location

    title "Buttons With An Implicit Guide Location" 
    guide 
    button "one"   button "two"  return 
    button "three" button "four" return 
    button" five" button "six" 

With an explicit guide location

    across title "Buttons With An Explicit Guide Location"
    guide 55x100 
    button "one"   button "two"  return 
    button "three" button "four" return 
    button" five" button "six" 
    
===Tabstops

Tabs can be used for alignment.

---Across

    tabs 200 ; sets tabs every 200 pixels   
    across button 20 "A" tab button 20 "B" tab button 20 "C" 
    tabs 100 ; sets tabs every 100 pixels   
    return button 20 "D" tab button 20 "E" tab button 20 "F"
    
---Below

    tabs 200 ; sets tabs every 200 pixels   
    below button 20 "A" tab button 20 "B" tab button 20 "C" 
    tabs 100 ; sets tabs every 100 pixels   
    return button 20 "D" tab button 20 "E" tab button 20 "F"

---Explicit Settings

Tabstops can be set at explicit values 

    tabs [100 124  166 212 300]

    across tab button 20 "A" tab button 20 "B" tab button 20 "C" tab 
    button 20 "D"
    
===Color Facets

Most styles have a default color.  For example the body of
buttons will default to a teal color.  To modify the color of
a face, provide a color facet:

    button 200 blue "Blue Button"
    h2 red "Red Heading"
    image polished orange

Colors can also be specifed as tuples. Each tuple contains three
numbers: the red, green, and blue components of the color. Each
component can range from 0 to 255. For example:

    button 200.0.200 "Red + Blue = Magenta" 200
    image polished 0.200.200 "Green + Blue"


Some face styles also allow more than one color.  The effect of the 
color depends on the style.  For text styles the first color will 
be used for the text and the second color for the background of the 
text:

    txt "Yellow on red background" yellow red
    title "White on Navy Blue" white navy


For other styles, the body of the face is the first color, and the 
second color will be used as its alternate.

    button 200 "Multicolor" olive red
    toggle 200 "Multicolor" blue orange


From the mailing list, there was a problem reported in changing button 
color:

    view layout [
        b: button "New color" [
            b/color: random 255.255.255 
            show b
        ]
    ]
    

And the answer was that the gradient of the color was preventing 
this change from working:


    style color-changing-button button 0.0.0        ; new style overwrites 
    gradient effect
    b: color-changing-button "New color" [
        b/color: random 255.255.255 
        show b
    ]

===Text Facets


Most faces will accept text to be displayed.  Even graphical faces 
can display text.  For example, the box and image faces will display 
text if it is provided:

    box blue "Box Face"
    image polished "Image Face"


Most button faces will accept more than one text string. The strings 
will be shown as alternates as the face is selected.

    button 200 "Up" "Down"
    toggle 200 "Off" "On"
    rotary 200 "Red" "Green" "Blue" "Yellow"
    choice 200 "Monday" "Tuesday" "Wednesday" "Thursday" "Friday"

    text-list 200 "Monday" "Tuesday" "Wednesday" "Thursday" "Friday"


When other datatypes need to be displayed as text, use the form function 
to convert them first:

    button 250 form now
    field form first read %.
    
===Normal Text Style


Normal text is light on dark and can include a number of facets to 
set the font, style, color, shadow, spacing, tabbing, and other attributes.

    text "Normal"
    text "Bold" bold
    text "Italic" italic
    text "Underline" underline
    text "Bold italic underline" bold italic underline
    text "Big" font-size 32
    text "Serif style text" font-name font-serif
    text "Spaced text" font [space: 5x0]

Text also includes these predefined styles:

    title "Title" 200
    vh1 "vh1"
    vh2 "vh2"
    vh3 "vh3"
    vh4 "vh4"
    label "Label"
    
    
===Document Text Style


Document text is dark on light and can also include a number of facets 
to set the font, style, color, shadow, spacing, tabbing, and other 
attributes.

    txt "Normal"
    txt "Bold" bold
    txt "Italic" italic
    txt "Underline" underline
    txt "Bold italic underline" bold italic underline
    txt "Big" font-size 32
    txt "Serif style text" font-name font-serif
    txt "Spaced text" font [space: 5x0]

Document text also includes these predefined styles:

    title "Centered title" 200
    h1 "Heading 1"
    h2 "Heading 2"
    h3 "Heading 3"
    h4 "Heading 4"
    tt "Typewriter text"
===Text Entry Fields


Text input fields accept text until the enter or tab key is pressed. 
 A text input field can be created with:

    field

To make the field larger or smaller, provide a width:

    field 30
    field 300

Fields will scroll when necessary.


Larger amounts of text can be entered in an area.  Areas also accept 
an enter key and will break lines.

    area

You can also specify the area size:

    area 160x200


To force the text in an area to wrap rather than scroll horizontally, 
provide the wrap option:

    area wrap
===Text Setting


To set the value of a text field under program control, use /text: 
e.g.

    across backtile polished
    return t1: txt      200 "This is some original text"
    return f1: field    200 "Some field text"   
    return a1: area  {Some original area text.} wrap 200x80
    return button 200 "Change Text" [
        t1/text: "Some different text" 
        f1/text: "Some new field text"

        a1/text: {Some wrapping text in the^/ area field to^/ show that this^/ 
        is supported}
        show [t1 f1 a1]
    ]
    
===Text Lists

Text lists are easy to create.  Here is an example.

    text-list "Eureka" "Ukiah" "Mendocino"

You can also provide it as a block:

    text-list data ["Eureka" "Ukiah" "Mendocino"]


Almost any type of block can be provided. Here is a list of all the 
files in your current directory:

    text-list data read %.

Here is a list of all the words REBOL has scanned:

    text-list data first system/words
===Scrolling Text List


A style to allow maintenance of lists from Brett Handley on the REBOL 
list:

        style updatable-text-list text-list
        with [
            update-slider: does [
                sld/redrag lc / max 1 length? head lines
            ]
        ]

        tl: updatable-text-list 300x100 data copy system/locale/months
        button  300x20 "Delete first entry on the list" [
            remove tl/data tl/update-slider show tl
        ]
        button 300x20 "Append the 'now' timestamp to list" [
            append tl/data mold now tl/update-slider show tl
        ]
===Text List Picked Values

    list-of-letters: text-list "a" "b" "c" "d" "e" 
    button 200  "Pick Item 3" [
        clear list-of-letters/picked 

        append list-of-letters/picked pick list-of-letters/data 3 
        show list-of-letters
    ]
===Images

By default an image will be scaled to fit within a face.

    image 60x60 polished
    image polished red

Images can be framed in a number of ways:

    image 100x100 polished frame blue 5x5
    image 100x100 polished bevel
    image 100x100 polished ibevel 6x6

Most other faces can accept an image as well as text:

    box 100x100 polished
    button "Button" polished purple
    toggle "Toggle" polished blue red
    field bold  "This is a field." polished effect [emboss tile]

    field bold "This is another field." polished effect [brighten 100]

The image can be provided as a filename, URL, or image data.



===Backdrops

A backdrop can be a color, an effect, an image, or a combination
of the three.  For example a backdrop color would be written as:

    backdrop navy
    title "Color Backdrop" gold

To create a backdrop effect provide it on the line:

    backdrop effect [gradient 1x1 0.0.100 100.0.0]
    title "Gradient Backdrop" gold

A backdrop image can be a file, URL, or image data:

    backdrop polished
    title "Image Backdrop" red

The backdrop image can be colorized:

    size 400x500 
    backdrop polished blue
    title "Blue Image Backdrop"

The image can include an effect:

    backdrop polished effect [fit gradcol 1x1 100.0.0 0.0.250]
    title "Gradient Image Backdrop"
    
===Backtile

To make a backdrop use a tile effect there are two options:

    backdrop polished effect [tile]
    banner "This shows a backdrop with a tile effect"
    
or

    backtile polished
    banner "This demonstrates backtile"


Note the difference between:

    size 400x500 
    backdrop polished
    banner "Here one image is stretched to cover the canvas"

and

    size 400x500 
    backtile polished
    banner "Here one image is repeated to cover the canvas"
    
===Effect Facets


A range of effects are supported for faces.  All of these effects 
are performed directly on the face when it is rendered. Here are 
examples of a few possible effects in top to bottom then left to 
right order:

    style polished-steel image 80x60 polished 
    polished-steel effect [flip 1x1]
    polished-steel effect [rotate 90]
    polished-steel effect [reflect 1x1]
    polished-steel effect [crop 0x50 120x60 fit]
    polished-steel effect [grayscale]
    polished-steel effect [invert]
    polished-steel effect [difference 200.0.0]
    polished-steel effect [tint 80]
    return
    polished-steel effect [contrast 50]
    polished-steel effect [brighten 50]
    polished-steel effect [sharpen]
    polished-steel effect [blur]
    polished-steel effect [colorize 204.0.0]
    polished-steel effect [gradcol 1x1 150.0.0 0.0.150]
    polished-steel effect [gradmul 0x1 0.100.0]
    polished-steel effect [grayscale emboss]


Effects can be used in combination to create other interesting results. 
 However, keep in mind that the computations are performed in real 
time.  If complex combinations are required, a temporary image should 
be created with the to-image function.


===Actions


An action can be associated with almost any face. To do so, follow 
the face style with a block:

    button "Test" [alert "test"]


The block is used as the body of a function that is passed the face 
and the current value (if the face has one).  For example:

    toggle "Toggle" [alert form value] 
    rotary "A" "B" "C" [alert form value]
    text "Click Here" [alert  face/text]

If a second block is provide, it is used for the alternate
actions (right key):


    button "Click Here" [view/new layout [txt "action"]] [view/new layout 
    [txt "alt-action"]]


Use variables to modify the contents or state of other faces. For 
example, the slider will update the progress bar:

    slider 200x16 [p1/data: value show p1]
    p1: progress

!More action on actions needed...

===Show


After the state is changed for a user interface element, it must 
be re-drawn to be reflected on the user interface canvas.

Accomplish this with the show message.

    backtile polished
    across 
    toggle "Toggle State"  
            [   cybernetics?/data: not cybernetics?/data
                show cybernetics?]  

    return  label "Are you interested in cybernetics?" cybernetics?: 
    check 

One show command can be used for multiple user interface elements

        backtile polished orange
        across
        b1: check label "Red" return
        b2: check label "Green" return

        button 200 "Change State But No Refresh" [b1/data: not b1/data b2/data: 
        not b2/data] return
        button "Show" [show [b1 b2]]
===Hide

A user interface element can also be hidden.

        backtile polished orange
        across
        c1: check 
        hide-button: button "Hide" [hide c1] return
        show-button: button "Show" [show [c1 d2]]


The show-button action tries to show a user interface element 'd2' 
that does not exist.
REBOL/View ignores these.
===Invisible Faces


To make a button invisible when the view is opened, you can define 
an invisible button style

This approach sets the show? value to false when the user interface 
element is initialized.

    across

    style invisible-button button with [append init [show?: false]]
    late-shower: invisible-button "I'm Here" return
    return button 200 "Show Invisible Button" [show late-shower]
    
This works for the other visible user interface element.

===Focus

A user interface element can programmatically be given the focus.

    across backtile polished 
    button 200 "Set focus to Phone Field" [focus f2] 
    return label "Name: "   f1: field 100 
    return label "Phone: " f2: field 100 

    return button 200 "Remove focus from Phone Field" [unfocus f2] 
    return button 200 "Hide the Phone Field" [hide f2] return

---Focus Defect


!Note that the tab function shows a hidden field. I have assumed 
that this is a defect. If a field is hidden, the tab button should 
not make it visible. This has been previously sent to feedback.

===Radio Buttons


A radio button is used to make a choice between mutually exclusive 
values. Your preferred programming language is REBOL or C++ or PL/1 
or APL but it is only one of those.

            across backtile polished

            radio of 'programming-language pad 0x-4 label "REBOL" return

            radio of 'programming-language pad 0x-4 label "C++" return

            radio of 'programming-language pad 0x-4 label "PL/1" return

            radio of 'programming-language pad 0x-4 label "APL" return


To mix two groups of radio buttons on one screen, associate them 
with their groups using the "of 'word". In the above, the grouping 
is 'programming-language.

            across backtile polished

            radio of 'programming-language pad 0x-4 label "Language: REBOL" return

            radio of 'programming-language pad 0x-4 label "Language: C++" return

            radio of 'editor pad 0x-4 label "Editor: TextPad" return

            radio of 'editor pad 0x-4 label "Editor: Notepad" return


The padding in the above is needed to keep the label aligned with 
the radio button.

            across backtile polished orange

            radio of 'programming-language pad 0x-4 label "REBOL" return

            radio of 'programming-language          label "APL" return
            
            
            
            

===Radio Button Settings


A radio button is not very useful unless you can find out what its 
setting is and change that setting under program control.


            across backtile polished orange

            rebol-radio:    radio of 'programming-language  [programming-language: 
            'rebol] pad 0x-4 label "REBOL" return

            apl-radio:      radio of 'programming-language  [programming-language: 
            'apl]         label "APL" return
            button 200 "Toggle radio button" [

                    apl-radio/data: not rebol-radio/data: not rebol-radio/data
                    show [rebol-radio apl-radio]
            ]
            
===Check Box

---Purpose


A check box is used to allow user interface choices where the choices 
are not mutually exclusive.

        across backtile polished orange
        c1: check label "Likes animals" return
        c2: check label "Like Monkees" return
        c3: check label "Like The Animals"
        
---State


A check box is not much good if you can't get and set its state (on 
or off).

        across backtile polished orange
        c1: check label "Likes animals" return
        c2: check label "Like Monkees" return
        
    button "Set State" [
        c1/data: true 
        show c1
        c2/data: false
        show c2
    ]
 
 
===Sensor

---Purpose


A sensor is an invisible user interface element. Using a sensor only 
makes sense in a few instances. 


If you want a keycode action where there is no visible user interface 
element to link the action to then a sensor can be used.


This sensor code adds an Escape or Back or Enter action that will 
close the window. 

    sensor 1x1 keycode [#"^M" #" " #"^(back)" #"^(ESC)"] [unview]


Or if you want to make portions of an image 'hot' instead of putting 
buttons on top of the image, then a sensor will achieve this.

        across backtile polished orange

        txt "Click on the upper left section of the gray image to invoke 
        the sensor action"

        return animage: image 100x100 polished      ; here the image is just 
        the polished area

        at animage/offset sensor 50x50 [alert "You pushed over the sensor"]
        
===Displaying Script Values


If the script has a standard format headings, including custom ones, 
these can be used in the application by picking them from the system/script/header.

        backtile polished
        across banner "About"

        return text font-size 16    rejoin ["Title: "           form system/script/header/title]

        return text font-size 16  rejoin ["Originator: "    form system/script/header/author] 
              

        return text font-size 16  rejoin ["Modifier: "      form system/script/header/modifier]

        return text font-size 16  rejoin ["Version: "       form system/script/header/version]

        return text font-size 16  rejoin ["Updated: "       form system/script/header/date]
        return button "OK" [unview] 

===Toggle


A toggle button represents boolean state - either on or off. The 
button stays down until toggled again.
Colors and text can be paired for "on" and "off" state.

    toggle "Up" "Down" red blue

To set the state via program control, use:

        across backtile polished
        return t1: toggle "Up" "Down" red blue
        return button polished 204.0.0 100 "Toggle State" [
            t1/state: not t1/state
            show t1
        ]


===Rotary Buttons


Rotary buttons are a different sort of user interface device. They 
can cause some challenges because the state is what's showing so 
you have to blindly "toggle" to get to a state that you want.  But 
for quick and easy uses where the user is familiar with the options, 
they can be handy.  If you plan to use them for a long list of items 
such as shown  below, they might give you some usability concerns.


---Example

        across backtile polished
        rotary data ["First" "Second" "Third"]

---Setting State

        across backtile polished

        return r1: rotary data (my-options: ["First" "Second" "Third"])
        return button 200 "Change Rotary State" [
            r1/data: next r1/data
            if tail? r1/data [r1/data: head r1/data]
            show r1
        ]

---Example - Usability For Unfamiliar List Contents


The rotary button demonstrated here contains some information unfamiliar 
to most (Saturn's satellites). Use it to to set the state so that 
"Calypso" is set. Doable but without knowing the order each re-paint 
has to be checked to ensure that it is not "Calypso" before clicking 
again.  If you do click past the choice that you want, there is no 
back function so you have to cycle through again.

        return rotary data [

            "Pan" "Atlas" "Prometheus" "Pandora" "Epimetheus" "Janus" "Mimas" 
            "Enceladus" "Tethys" "Telesto" "Calypso" "Dione" "Helene" "Rhea" 
            "Titan" "Hyperion" "Iapetus" "Phoebe"        
        ]


===Arrows


REBOL/View supports arrows as simple user interface elements. Actions 
can be associated with them.



---Arrowheads And Actions

By default, the arrow is 20x20

    across size 200x100 
    backtile polished
    at 50x50 arrow left 
        [alert "You pressed the left arrow"] 

        [alert "You pushed the alternate button on the left arrow"] 
    at 70x30 arrow up
    at 90x50 arrow right [alert "You pressed the right arrow"]
    at 70x70 arrow down
    
---Very Sharp Arrows


And with a little work the arrows and boxes can be merged to look 
sharper. Here is a "sharp at both ends" arrow from the block diagram 
script by Carl:

    origin 0
    backcolor white
    at 0x0 box 40x40 white effect [arrow rotate 270]
    at 110x0 box 40x40 white effect [arrow rotate 90]
    at 24x10 box black 100x20
    
---Arrow Blend

So that shows you how to make an arrow blend into your background

    size 100x100
    across backdrop gray
    at 50x50 box 40x40 gray effect [arrow rotate 90]
    at 40x67 box 25x5 black
    
===LED

LEDs would be used to display state (on or off).  

Clicking the LED toggles its state and changes its color.

LEDs do not support alternate mouse button actions.

    across banner "Light Emitting Diode"
    return 

    l1: led 10x10 [alert "LED left mouse action"] label "Alert status"

    l2: led 10x10 [alert "LED left mouse action"] label "Network status"
    return button "Change state" [
        l1/data: not l1/data
        l2/data: not l2/data 
        show [l1 l2]        
    ]
    
===Box


---Boxing

Draw boxes of any heigth and width with the box style

    box "Large Box" 200x400 polished orange
    
---Boxes As Lines


If you make the box narrow enough or short enough it is a line (or 
a dot).

    across size 300x300 backtile polished
    at 50x0 box 3x100 gold
    at 0x50 b1: box 100x3 gold
    at 10x10 box 5x5 red
    
---Boxes Can Grow

    across size 300x300 backtile polished
    at 150x0 b1: box 100x3 gold
    return pad 0x100 button "Grow Down" [
        for i 3 300 1 [
            b1/size/y: 1 + b1/size/y
            wait 00:00:00.01
            show b1
        ]
    ]

    return pad 0x100 button "Back Up" [
        for i 300 3 -1 [
            b1/size/y: b1/size/y - 1
            wait 00:00:00.01
            show b1
        ]
    ]

You might even find a use for it.


---Grid Effect

Not sure of the use for this yet but here is what you can do:


 return box "Grid Lock" with [effect: [grid 20x20 8x8 4x3]] white 
 300x200
 

 return box "Grid Lock" with [effect: [grid 20x20 5x5 3x3]] white 
 - 80 300x200
 
===Frame

Earlier versions of REBOL VID supported frames in layouts such as
view layout [frame "This is the Bay" %bay.jpg]

These are no longer valid.

But frames can be put around some user interface devices:

    image 100x100 polished frame red
    
===List


A list is an iterated sub layout and takes a layout block that uses 
the Visual Interface Dialect. The styles in the layout will be repeated 
until there is no more room to fit them within the list dimensions.


---Why


A face can be iterated to create a number of virtual faces. For instance, 
when displaying a list of ten buttons, each of the buttons does not 
need to be created as a separate object. If the buttons only differ 
by a few facets (such as position, text, and action taken on selection), 
a model face can be created and iterated for its other position. 
This is useful when creating scrolling lists of files and other data 
sets that share the same appearance. 

---Supply


Supply provides the data to the list for an iterated face.

    do [cnt: 0
        list-collection: [aqua sky water]    
    ]
    backtile polished orange
    across
    list-displayed: list 100x72 [
        origin 0 space 0x0 across
        color-field: txt bold 80x24
    ] supply [
            if none? one-color: pick list-collection count [exit]
            face/text: do pick [one-color] index

    ]

    return txt gold 180 "OK ... but not too useful"


---Supply Columns

Maybe adding some more columns would be better.

Here I'll add a column of buttons that display the color name
and a column of text strings in italic.

    do [
        cnt: 0
        list-collection: [aqua sky water gold silver coffee]    
    ]
    backtile polished orange
        across
        list-displayed: list 300x200 [
            origin 0 space 0x0 across
            color-field: txt bold 80x24
            color-button: button 80x24
            pad 5x1
            txt 100 italic
        ] supply [

                if none? one-color: pick list-collection count [exit]
                face/text: do pick [
                    [one-color]
                    [to-string one-color]
                    [rejoin ["  " to-string one-color]]
                    ] index 
    ]
    

    return txt gold 300 {A bit more interesting but the last row repeats 
    to fill the list size. Some of the other VID components will automatically 
    stretch to fit the size needed (such as this txt field) but the list 
    does not behave that way.  You have to make the list size fit its 
    data or make it smaller and add a vertical scroll capability. That 
    is shown a little later on.}

===List With Supplied Data

This example is to show adding action to the list
and adds a horizontal line between the rows.


    do [
        cnt: 0
        list-collection: [aqua sky water gold silver coffee]    
    ]
    backtile polished orange
        across

        list-displayed: list water edge [size: 6x6 color: silver]  350x96 
        [  
            origin 0 space 0x0 across

            color-field: txt 60 [alert rejoin ["You pressed the " face/text " 
            text field"]]
            pad 45x0            

            color-button: button 80 [alert rejoin ["You pressed the " face/text 
            " button"]]
            pad 5x0
            txt 120 italic

            return box 350x1 white      ; this causes a horizontal line to appear 
            between each row

        ] supply [

                if none? one-color: pick list-collection count [exit]
                face/text: do pick [
                    [one-color]
                    [to-string one-color]
                    [rejoin ["  " to-string one-color]]
                    ] index 
    ]


===Supply List With Scroll

This example shows a supplied list with a scroll capability.
More colors are added to demonstrate scrolling.

Note that this is a verbose list of code where I added comments
for my understanding of how the scroll was linked to the list.
The same effect can be accomplished with fewer lines of code.
    

    do [    ; first this do block creates the data definitions needed.
        slider-position-clicked:  0

        ]


        ; now add a slider to the side of the list

                    to be bound to the size of the list                

                        * ((1 + data-size) - ((y / (1 + row-y))))       ; including the row 
                        height
                    if slider-position-clicked <> count [
                        count: slider-position-clicked 
                        show list-displayed
                    ]
                ]


===Slider


A slider is interactive user interface element. The data of a slider 
varies from 0 to 1.

    backtile polished   orange across
    slider-1: slider 200x40 
    return button 200 "Move first slider to 50%" [
        slider-1/data: .5 
        show slider-1
    ]

    return txt 200 "The second slider in this example is initialized 
    to the 80% mark."  
    return slider 200x40 with [append init [data: .8]]
    
===Progress Indicator


The progress-1 face in this example is a progress indicator. Because 
it is only displaying information, it is non-interactive i.e. you 
can not change its value by dragging its edges.  The alternate button 
is not supported on a progress indicator.

    backtile polished   orange across
    slider 200x40 [
        progress-1/data: value 
        field-1/text: join (to-integer (100 * value)) " %"
        show [progress-1 field-1]
    ] 
    return progress-1: progress
    return field-1: field
===Panels 


Panels are used to create sub-panes that can be more easily managed 
by grouping

the user interface devices on a panel. The first example below shows 
how to use panels for layout alignment. By creating a panel definition, 
all of the components defined within it are aligned relative to its 
origin.

    across backtile polished brick
    tabs 50
    return panel-1: panel 250x120 [
        backtile polished
        across
        return button water 200 "Button A"
        return button aqua  200 "Button B"
        return button sky   200 "Button C" 
    ]


    at panel-1/offset + panel-1/size panel 60x90 [  ; start at the bottom 
    right corner of panel-1
        backtile polished
        across
        return button tan       20 "1"
        return button coffee    20 "2"
    ]
    
---Multiple SubPanels example


This example from the REBOL html documentation shows how to easily 
hide and show sections of a user interface by displaying them on 
the face area of a box.  


        do [                                ; define two panels
            panel1: layout [
                    origin 8x8
                    h2 "Panel 1"
                    field "Field 1"
                    field "Field 2"
                    button "The Answer" [alert "I know nothing."]
            ]


            panel2: layout [
                origin 8x8
                    h2 "Panel 2"
                    across
                    txt "X:"
                    slider 150x16
                    return
                    txt "Y:"
                    slider 150x16

===Simple Default Style Override


The style's default look can be overriden easily with one line of 
code. 


For example, to make the default button size 200x200 with a water 
color, use

    style button button 200x200 water
    button "Big Blue Button" [unview]

To make the toggle some different default colors:

    style toggle toggle crimson sky
    toggle "Up" "Down"


Note that these stay in effect until they are overridden so if you 
use the default values, exercise some care unless you meant to do 
that. 



===Image Maker


An option used by Carl in some of his programs is to let View create 
specific icons so that you have portability and more control of look 
of the image then if you referenced an external file such as gif 
that was a bullet display. Here's how to do that:

    do [    
        make-image: func [xy wh eff] [
            eff: layout [
                size 20x20 at xy
                box wh effect eff
            ]
        eff/color: rebolor
        to-image eff
        ]


        dot: make-image 6x5 9x9 [gradient 1x1 255.0.0 0.0.0 oval key 0.0.0]

        dot-big: make-image 8x7 12x12 [gradient 1x1 255.0.0 0.0.0 oval key 
        0.0.0]
        arr: make-image 3x3 14x14 [arrow 0.0.127 rotate 90]
        ard: make-image 3x3 14x14 [arrow 0.0.127 rotate 180]    

    ]   ; end of "do" - it is needed here because easyvid approach is 
    expecting vid dialect commands

    banner "Presentation Points"
    size 400x300 across

    style label label gold     ; make a label's text be a different color 
    than the default
    return image dot label "This is bullet point number 1" 
    return image dot label "This is bullet point number 2"
    return image arr label "This is arrow point number 1"

    return image ard label "This is an arrow making a different point"

    return image dot-big pad 0x4 area 300x80 wrap "And because these 
    arrows and dots are images, action can be added to them to make them 
    'hot' with mouse actions including 'over'."
    
===Needs Some Work

!More to come.  These still need to be covered in this
tutorial:

    text-list data [
        icon
    ]
    
===Digital Clock

===Requesters


REBOL View supports an assortment of requesters. 


The results of the request-* code are returned as its value e.g. 
chosen-date: request-date


---Request Yes | No | Cancel


Provides the user the capability to pick from choices "Yes" | "No" 
| "Cancel"

The result is "True" | "False" | none

    do [user-response: none]

    button "Simple Request" 200 [user-response: request "Do you want 
    to abandon your input so far?"]
    button "View User Response" 200 [alert form user-response]

    button "Request File Download To Specific File" 300 [request-download/to 
    http://www.rebol.com/index.html%/c/temp.html]

===Message Box


    button "Format" 100 [request ["Your message goes here. It will wrap 
    if it is very very long and tedious." "Close"]] 
    button "Example" 100 [request ["You done good!" "OK"]]



---Confirmation

    button "Exit" 100 [
        request/confirm "Do you want to quit without saving?" []
    ]
    

===Calling the Editor

The REBOL editor is now callable with the editor function

    backtile polished
    button 300 "Create a test file and edit it" [
        write %temp.txt "This is a test file"
        editor %temp.txt
    ] frame 204.0.0 
    

===Calling Windows

With View/Pro the calling of executables is supported.

Here are two simple examples that will work if you have View/Pro 
on a platform where a notepad and calc are avaiable.

    across backtile size 200x200
    return button "Notepad" [call ["notepad.exe"]]
    return button "Calculator" [call ["calc.exe"]]


===Window Options


Note that these are options which are ignored by the easyvid.r code 
that displays them in this tutorial.
Copy the code out and run it standalone in REBOL/View.

---Block Options: No Border and No Title

    view/options layout [
        size 200x200 
        banner "Window Options" 
        button "Close" [unview]
        ] [
            no-border
            no-title
        ]


---Word Option: No Title


Note that the results of this are surprising if you run it from within 
a script that has a title option. It is displayed near location 0x0 
of the resulting window instead of in the window frame that has been 
suppressed. 

    view/options layout [
        size 200x200 
        banner "Window Options" 
        button "Close" [unview]
        ] 'no-title

===REBOL/View Notifiers


REBOL/View supports simple notifiers to send messages to a user interface


---Alert

    button 220 polished "Send alert message" [
        alert "This causes a dialogue box to popup"
    ]





---Flash

Flash is provided to provide a message and keep on processing.

    across size 200x200
    return button 150 "Create Flash Message" [flash "Testing"]
    return button 150 "Unview Flash" [unview]



---Inform

    inform layout  [
        backtile polished sky 

        across text font-size 16 bold underline red "Action complete!" 
        return button "OK"  [unview]]

---Popup

REBOL supports popups  (see note below before running!)

        across size 200x200 
        button "Show Popup" [
            show-popup popup-layout: layout [
                    across size 200x200 
                    backtile polished
                    banner "The Popup Worked" 
                    return button "Unview" [unview]
                ]
        ]
        return button "Hide Popup" [unview/only popup-layout]

I have had some difficulties (process lockup) when using

these popups so just use view layout [...] and skip the popup part.

===Diagram Example


Carl has created some diagrams in REBOL using styles to make an architecture 
diagram.

This is a slightly modified version.


Here again a DO block precedes the layout code for non-layout initiatiation 
... here the definition of a function.

Why make a diagram this way?


1. One reason is that it can be interactive ... the sections are 
all "hot" with a few lines of code.  Here they pop up REBOL Dialogs 
but they could do anything that can be coded even something as simple 
as launching a browser on a different URL for each diagram component. 
 The "Compositor" box demonstrates this by launching your browser 
on the REBOL.com site.


2. Very small footprint size compared to other presentation source 
formats.

===Column Images


Creates a layout looking (a little) like columns. It uses a gradient 
effect going from darker to lighter

 do [
     column: make image! layout [

            backdrop effect [gradient 1x0 20.20.20 250.240.230 luma 60]
        ]

    column-size: 50x420

    area-size: 400x420  ; height should be the same as column-size
 ]
 backtile polished tan
   across 
   image column-size  column 
   pad -10x0        ; this brings the default VID spacing back
   area wrap area-size  

   edge none        ; take the edge off of area so that it more closely 
   blends 
   shadow 2x2

   pad -10x0 image column-size column  ; if you want a right column

===Tree View of Directory

This is Didier's tree view %request-dir.r


In this sample, you must be online because the code is accessed on 
the Rebol script server

 do [do http://www.rebol.org/library/scripts/request-dir.r
     request-dir
 ]


Note that:

* the script is read from the script library but runs locally

* it is showing the files in your directories


===The emailer Function


The function for emailing has appeared in Jan-2004 on the rebol list.


It is a simple idea ... to create a standard emailer by invoking 
a function emailer. This window will show the source:

  text wrap 400x300 mold get 'emailer

And it is simple to run:

    across size 200x200
    return button 150 "Run emailer" [emailer]


But on my machine there is again a problem - the emailer locks up 
REBOL/View.

Recommendation:

* if it works use it if you like


* use Doc Kimbel's one liner (works for me). Assumes you have set 
up your email in set-user



 e: field "Email" s: field "Subject" m: area "Body" btn "Send"[send/subject 
 to-email e/text m/text s/text alert "ok"]



* better yet, make your own... if the code for the basic is 1 line, 
then a custom version is not far away. Here's an example that allows 
selection of your frequent contacts (entered in the names-addresses 
series) and keeps a journal of email that you have sent (using this 
code) in file email-journal.txt.  Assumes you have setup your user 
profile correctly to allow sending of email.


 do [

  names-addresses: [
    "Contact 1"         [contact1-:-no-such-address-:-com]
    "Contact 2"         [contact2-:-no-such-address-:-com]
    "Contact 3"         [contact3-:-no-such-address-:-com]
  ]

  names: copy []
  foreach [name address] names-addresses [append names name]


  journal?: false  ; set to true if want to journalize sent email
 ]

    e: rotary 200 data sort names
    s: field "Subject" 
    m: area 500x400 wrap "Body" 
    btn "Send"[

        send/subject who-to: select names-addresses e/text m/text s/text 
        alert join "Sent email to: " form who-to
        
        if journal? [
            write/append %email-journal.txt rejoin [
                "[ When-sent: " now/precise 
                " To: " who-to
                " Subject: {" s/text
                "} Message: {" m/text "} ] "
                newline
            ]
        ]
    ]
    btn "Quit" [unview]



It won't take much to change this from the rotary used to a text 
list allowing multiple selections.





===Some More email


Earlier there have been a few examples of sending email. Here are 
a few more that often appear in the mailing list

---Simple Send


This is not a runnable version because you don't need anything but 
REBOL/Core to run it. It has been wrapped in a DO block so it does 
not send errors to the console.

---Quick Send Short Message

 do [
    send [address-:-isp-:-com] "My Message"
 ]
 
---Send Longer Message  

Now a more complex message where there is a body to the message:

 do [
    send [address-:-isp-:-com] {Sample Message
               
    This is the body of the message
    } 
 ]

---Send with One Attachment


Here, so that the sample does not fail, test file(s) are created 
by the code before attempting the send. 

 do [
    test-file: %file-attachment.txt
    write test-file {Just some test data to create a file}
    send/attach [address-:-isp-:-com] {Sample Message
               
    This is the body of the message
    } test-file
 ]
 
---Send with Attachments

And a message with multiple attachments.


Here, so that the sample does not fail, test file(s) are created 
by the code before attempting the send. 

 do [
    files: [%file-attachment.txt %second-attachment.txt]

    foreach file files [write file {Just some test data to create a file}]
    send/attach [address-:-isp-:-com] {Sample Message
               
    This is the body of the message
    } files
 ]
 
---Send to Multiple Addresses


Here, so that the sample does not fail, test file(s) are created 
by the code before attempting the send. 

 do [
    files: [%file-attachment.txt %second-attachment.txt]

    foreach file files [write file {Just some test data to create a file}] 

    send/attach [[address-:-isp-:-com][asecondAddress-:-isp-:-com]] {Sample Message
               
    This is the body of the message
    } files
 ]
 
---Send/only

Same send only just provide the SMTP server with one copy:

Here, so that the sample does not fail, test file(s) are created 
by the code before attempting the send. 

  do [
    files: [%file-attachment.txt %second-attachment.txt]

    foreach file files [write file {Just some test data to create a file}] 

    send/only/attach [[address-:-isp-:-com][asecondAddress-:-isp-:-com]] {Sample 
    Message
               
    This is the body of the message
    } files
 ]
 
---Send With Header


This example uses a Do block to wrap the code. If you execute the 
email should be sent.
But it is unlikely to be delivered.


The addresses for me and you should be changed in your use as well 
as the

* Subject

* Organization

* Content 

 do [
   me: [myaddress-:-isp-:-com]
   you: [youraddress-:-isp-:-com]
   header-object: make system/standard/email [
            From: me
            Reply-To: me
            Subject: "Some Stuff"
            Organization: "Cyberia"
            MIME-Version: 1.0 
            Content-Type: "text/plain"
    ]
 send/header you {Test Message
    This is the message body.
    }                 
    header-object 
 ] 

---Send with CC

This adds a copy value in the header-object

 do [
   me: [myaddress-:-isp-:-com]
   you: [youraddress-:-isp-:-com]
   header-object: make system/standard/email [
            From: me
            Reply-To: me
            Subject: "Some Stuff"
            Organization: "Cyberia"
            MIME-Version: 1.0 
            Content-Type: "text/plain"
        cc: [another-address-:-isp-:-com]
    ]
 send/header you {Test Message
    This is the message body.
    }                 
    header-object 
 ] 


   
---Doctored Code

Again Doc Kimbel's one liner that does not waste a character


 e: field "Email" s: field "Subject" m: area "Body" btn "Send"[send/subject 
 to-email e/text m/text s/text alert "ok"]


===Sharp Styles


I really like the style that Didier has put around his email previewer

 do [
    ss-light: stylize [
        text: text feel none
        vtext: vtext feel none
        col-hdg: text black 255.255.204 bold middle effect []
        col-txt: text edge [size: 1x0 color: gray effect: 'bevel]

            50 logo.gif/size/y] edge [

                color: 0.0.0 size: 0x1] feel none with [color: black]
        lab: label para [origin: 2x3 margin: 0x2]

Something new in the Library....If you own scripts, you can add images 
to them to make it all a bit more graphic.

Only example to date here:

Another question: what is required to use view-request.r with enface? 
I keep getting an error message:

** Script Error: sky has no value
** Where: context
** Near: color: sky size: 2x2
** Press enter to quit...


I just want a calander to pop up to request a date.  Is another source 
module required besides view-request.r?

Volker, that helps some.  But now I get:

Unknown word or style: request-date

I think I have included all the files needed. The problem must be 
in the way I am using request-date. Oh well, I figure it out after 
lunch.

Is there a better way to do this:

comment {
    ;do %/c/sdk/source/view.r
    do %/c/sdk-2-6-2/source/view.r
    do %t-db-functions.r
    do %request-date.r
}

    #include %/c/sdk/source/view.r ;NOTE: THIS IS THE OLD SDK. WON'T 
    WORK WITH NEW SDK.
    #include %t-db-functions.r
    #include %request-date.r


So that I don't have to comment out  lines when I switch from interpreter 
to encap and back.

Latest build available at: http://www.dobeash.com/files/RebGUI-021.zip

Highlights include:

	- Specification dialect is now VID compatible (and 35% slower)
	- request-color and request-date added
	- Span attribute changed from tuple to issue
	- Couple of minor fixes
	- %tour.r has an additional "Requestors" tab


I wanted to get this build out before folks went too far down the 
converting from VID to RebGUI and vice versa path. If a parse expert 
(I'm not one) could suggest performance improvements for the main 
display parse loop that would be great.

Here's another issue:
rebgui 0.2.4 defines a new global word 'edit

  This interfered with my custom edit function, which I use to launch 
  my favourite editor.
  I'm not changing it for you ! :)

  This is an example of the problem of adding words to the global context 
  without doing
  an environmental impact study first.

  The user should be given the choice whether to export your words 
  to the global context or not.
  But probably most of them don't need to be out there at all.

  My advice is to add only these words to the global context: [

 ctx-rebgui display show-text show-data show-title splash request-color 
 request-date request-file
  ]
  
  --- rebgui.r ---
  
	CTX-REBGUI: context [

		...

		edit: none
		widgets: none
		requestors: none
		display: none

		foreach [word file][
			edit		%rebgui-edit.r
			widgets		%rebgui-widgets.r
			requestors	%rebgui-requestors.r
			display		%rebgui-display.r
		][
			if none? word [set word do file]
		]
	]

	;if not value? 'edit [do %rebgui-edit.r]
	;if not value? 'widgets [do %rebgui-widgets.r]
	;if not value? 'requestors [do %rebgui-requestors.r]
	;if not value? 'display [do %rebgui-display.r]

	; export DISPLAY and the accessor functions to global context
	foreach word [display show-text show-data show-title splash][
		set word get in ctx-rebgui word
	]


  And each file no longer has a *named* context:

  --- edit.r ---

	REBOL [...]
	
	context [...]


  The above changes should mean few changes to the rebgui code. For 
  example, the body

  of the display function refers to the widgets context, but this is 
  still accessible
  because both DISPLAY and WIDGETS are inside ctx-rebgui.

We have request-date for that. Spinners are usually used to increment 
/ decrement integers and percentages, with support for min, max and 
step values.

request-date give you a hudge over see spinner date give you a close 
contrôle for short time periode since now/date

for example Image I'm a commercial I need to set for tomorow a schedule 
with some client what would be grphically better for me ? click add 
button and then select the date user request date or Click Add button 
then use spinner to select the proper date and time and enter an 
entry to the topic field :)

Anton

 1) Code size. What it loses in code size it gains in aesthetics and 
 simplified behaviour (check out the request-color and request-date 
 actions in %tour.r to see the extra "state" code required by the 
 original implementation). I like Brian's base64 solution.

 2) Tab-panel color: I've based this on the WinXP color scheme. Try 
 changing it to colors/window, it just doesn't look right. But slider 
 can be used on a colors/widget or colors/window background. WinXP 
 solves this by using a gradient / edge so that it is distinguishable 
 on either. So for RebGUI, a number of solutions are possible:

  - add a new colors/slider background that "works" with both widget 
  and windows background colors

  - add a new colors/tab-panel background that "works" with both widget 
  and windows background colors

  - use an effect like gradient to distinguish the slider background 
  color
		- or edge
		- or?
	I'm open to suggestions on this one. ;)

Brian
	1) I like the in-line image solution

 2) I like the base 64 solution even better! One problem, the button-down 
 image renders the same as button-up (i.e. 1st and 2nd images render 
 the same ... even though a quick glance at the data suggests they 
 are different?)

Graham
	Any examples where the desired behaviour is used?

shadwolf

 I did the same (replaced scroller call with "slider data [arrows]") 
 for text-list / table and it worked fine for me. Check for code that 
 tried to reference sub-faces in the old scroller widget (as Anton 
 refactored slider to use just one face).

Ashley - why request-date was redone? It has strange metrics here 
... too wide (x axis) and it looks like 80ies jurrasic Win3.1 period 
with btns :-) - old look was much nicer with chevron kind of buttons 
... and it was merely the same size X and Y axis wise ...

Synced public release (via get-rebgui or Viewtop) to rev#25. Changes 
include:

tour.r - Reinstated #include
requestors.r - Removed unfinished bubble-menu code

edit.r - Reinstated rev#19-20 changes lost in rev#21

display.r - Disabled tooltip for requestors (hack to bypass blank 
square with request-date/color/question)
radio-group.r - reduce data in init (see tour.r for usage case)

so we can do  show-text field form request-date, instead of
 
show-text field form either none? d: request-date [ "" ][ d ]

any[ request-date copy"" ]

build#60 committed to SVN. Added Henrik's button widget with 2 minor 
modifications:

	1) Over color defaults to colors/over
	2) All of init inlined into the effect facet


The first change is self-explanatory, the second follows the principle 
that init should do as little as possible (facet code is evaluated 
once while init code is evaluated every time the widget is used). 
This change has one subtle side-effect, the "Refresh Display" button 
of %tour.r no longer works for all widgets (button in particular). 
This will be fixed in a future build.


One thing to note about the new button widget is its default size: 
15x6 instead of 15x5 units. This should not be a problem for most 
buttons, but may have spacing/alignment issues for inline buttons.


Note that the button change necessitated a small change to request-date 
which is now working again.

do-events

I often have the need to set a date on a field ... and use a symbol 
to invoke the request-date .. .but this usually means I have to name 
the date field like this


datefld: field 25 symbol data 'look on-click [ use [d][ if d: request-date 
[ set-text datefld form d ]]]


To avoid naming the datefield, I have this function which returns 
the prior face


get-prior-widget: func [ f
    /local pane priorface
][
    pane: f/parent-face/pane
    priorface: pick pane -1 + index? find pane f
]

and here's a request date that uses it


request-date-priorface: func [ f /local d ]
[
    if d: request-date [
        set-text get-prior-widget f form d
    ]
]

so we can now do:


 field 25 symbol data 'look on-click [  request-date-priorface face 
 ]

then I would say use any tool that permit you to see the header request/response, 
look closely what working websites sen in the response header for 
set-cookie change the mod-rsp to send the same apart from the RSPSID=xxx 
, eg remove path and expiration date

New Cheyenne test release 0.9.19 available. Please report any bug 
or regresson here.

Changelog (diff from previous one) :


  o RSP: fixed a security issue allowing access to /webapp/private/ 
  sub-folders content.
	 

  o RSP/CGI: fix for HTTP 'Date header not being returned in some cases.(Will)
	 

  o RSP Sessions: fixed an issue with init flag when saving sessions 
  on disk.(Will)
	 
	 o RSP: now you can declare folders as valid login URL.(Will)
	 
	 	Ex: auth "/admin/login/"
	 	

  o RSP: a new session word 'from has been added. It's set to the referring 
  URL on login.

    After login, you can now redirect to the referring page (in case 
    of session timeouts
	   for example).(Will)
	   

  o RSP: a webapp can now be called without the ending slash.(Will)
	 

  o RSP: the root "/" webapp can now be declared (needs testing).(Will)
	 	 

  o RSP: new 'SID-domain config keyword added allowing to share sessions 
  between
	   sub-domains.(Will)
	 

  o RSP: now session ID can be passed as URL or POST data in addition

  avoid writing
	   log info to disk for the current request.(Will)
	   
	   		Ex: response/no-log


  o New 'mod-expire module for HTTPd. Allow configuring 'Expires HTTP 
  header. 
	   See %Cheyenne/mods/mod-expire.r for more info.(Will)

New Cheyenne v0.9.19 test release available at http://cheyenne-server.org/tmp/cheyenne-r0919.zip.
This should be the last one before making 0.9.19 the new official 
version. 

ChangeLog (diff from previous one) :


    o RSP: fix in request/query-string allowing processing parameters 
    values passed through 'validate filter.
	   

  o RSP: output of RSP scripts is now compressed (using deflate) if 
  the client supports it.
	   

  o Default static files memory cache now set to 4Mb accepting files 
  up to 64Kb.
	   

  o Mod-static: fixed a bug in Last-Modified date forming when seconds 
  = 0.

u were doing 1.0 DELETE request though, but it didn't make any difference.

onetom ~/rebol/cheyenne-server-read-only/Cheyenne $ svn up
U    mods/mod-action.r
Updated to revision 131.

Have any of you ever seen where the request-date requester does not 
display the correct month? For example, it will say May 2009 when 
it is actually displaying June 2009. Selecting a date will give you 
the june date. Using the /date refinement doesn't seem to help either.

The checklist was put up, with a request for people to add their 
preferred dates.

Not many of us did, and 27-dec was the favorite from a very short 
list.

I think now it'd be Nick's decision if he wanted to throw the date 
back into the open.

Any of us could of course start the hunt for an eDevCon date in 2009.

An idea of NTP scheme, but servers comunicates only on 123 UDP port. 
overview of time services:

Daytime:  Ascii response,  Graham and Ladislav has written a scheme/tool 
already  port 13

Time: most simple possible server listening on port  37 answer 32bit 
unsigned number of second from 1-1-1900/0:00 (calculation of human 
readable date is not so trivial because of leaping seconds inserted 
to UTC with no rule at all, an Earth is dancing a Jive in fact)

HTTP: use inserted Date-time from any header returned from server 
port 80

SNTP: more precise protocol (contains also fraction of second in 
reply) subprotocol of NTP on UDP port 37

NTP: most precise available to compare more time servers, and calculate 
with computed transport delay and phase shift from evaluated couple 
of handshaking packets.  UDP port 37

The latter two use minimally 12  32bit binary packets for request 
and response, symmetric or asymetric cryptography possible (honestly 
I've no clue why this).
