VID questions (text-list, recursive show) and report of a strange behavi
[1/2] from: geza67::freestart::hu at: 27-Aug-2001 18:07
Hello REBOLers,
I have some /View-related questions and a strange observation.
1. Is there a not-so convoluted way (e.g. by a refinement) to get the selection's
index number
from a single selection text-list or index numbers (in a block
e.g.) in case of multiple selection text-list?
The /picked refinement gives back unfortunately the selected entry's text as a result.
Now I use a rather ugly "conversion" code like this to find the index:
index-value: index? find list-items/lines form list-items/picked
NB: this one does NOT work in case of a multi-select list!!
2. How can I disable the multiple selection capability in a text-list ?
2. Also, is there a more elegant REBOlish :-) way to highlight/select item(s)
in a text-list like composing an appropriate /picked block by hand?
list-items/picked: compose [(list-items/lines/1)]
3. How to "show/deep" an entire panel (with ALL child faces / child panels inside)
?
Is there a more elegant way than looping through the faces and showing them individually?
4. Bug or only the lack of feature? Inside a layout, setting block of words to block
of words
does not work in REBOL/View/Pro 1.2.0.3.1 8-May-2001 under Windows 9x :
field1/text: something1
field2/text: something2
field3/text: something3 works, but the more elegant mapping
set [field1/text field2/text field3/text] [something1 something2 something3]
crashes with error:
** Script Error: Invalid argument: field1/text
** Where: func [face value][ ...

I want to know how to enable multiple selelection capability. ;0 I have
noticed though that if you have multiple instances of the same value, all of
the instances will be highlighted, but only the one you click on will appear
in the text-list1/picked list.
