doubleclick on text-list
[1/3] from: kgozlin:gis:pl at: 4-Dec-2001 13:17
Hi List!
I want to write a simple program with GUI using VID and I have some
question about it :
how to make text-list react on doubleclick?
and how to move items on text-list using drag and drop?
maybe someone did it and source is available? I just don't know where to
start
thanks in advance

Hi Karol,
This is actually becoming quite a common newbie question. The fact is
thought that REBOL isn't quite like any other Programming/Scripting language
you have used. There is no default double-click support, but I can send you
a function that checks for double click. As far as for drag'n'drop, it is
actually not been done with a text-list (AFAIK), but that doesn't mean it
can't be done. The reality is (IMHO) that REBOL is so different than other
languages you really need to get a handle on some of the basics first.
First off I would go read the core users manual
(http://rebol.com/docs/core23/rebolcore.html) particularly on Objects
(section 10), REBOL's graphical interface is based on objects. Also a good
read would be (http://rebol.com/docs/view-guide.html) although that isn't
very in depth it will give you a start on the Graphical end of it. & this
(http://rebol.com/how-to/feel.html) will get you started on the User
Interface Events. More How-To's are avalable at

Ok, so I didn't quite tell the truth, there is default Double-Click Support,
but I didn't find it on my first attempt at such a thing so I forgot it
existed. See Romano's reply for more detail.
Enjoy!!
