VID and pre-existing faces

 [1/4] from: brett::codeconscious::com at: 19-Apr-2001 0:02


Hi VID gurus If I have a pre-existing face a-face: layout [text "A simple face"] and I want to include it within a new face b-face b-face: layout [ title "Decorated face" ... a-face... ] Can I do it with a VID specification or do I play with b-face/pane as I am now? Thanks, Brett. --- http://www.codeconscious.com

Heya Brett, this is my solution: a-face: layout/offset [origin 0x0 backcolor red text "A simple face"] 0x0 view b-face: layout [ title "Decorated face" box with [size: a-face/size pane: a-face]] maybe you'll find it usefull... Happy Reboling ;-) Cyphre

One way to do it: a-face: [origin 0x0 text "A simple face"] view layout [ title "Decorated face" at 10x10 panel a-face with [size: 100x20] ] The only problem is that you have to know the size of the panel to add.. Othwewise: l: layout a-face: [origin 0x0 backcolor green text "A simple face"] view layout [ title "Decorated face" at 10x10 panel a-face with [size: l/size] ] but this probably spends some CPU time for the layout function call.. (and I also noticed that l/size is smaller than the required size to display the text) /PeO
