Right now it is ROWS/COLS. When Peter Rees introduced this GT he thought it appropriate that console size must fit the screen size at the most. It must not oversize screen dimensions. He was correct because he preceived it as a CONSOL. Now with the extensive usage this GT has attracted in importance demands it to be extended to honor Windows protocols. What I intention is to make it FONT oriented and let the final decision to increase/decrease its size be on the program code. If the window dimensions are increased by this fact then window be shown at x=0, y=0 corordinated when initiated no matter what its final size is. We can also think to implement scrollbars to honor the rows/cols etc. I need group decision before proceeding to implement it. NOTE: It may break some existing code if that is implemented under uncontrolled coordinates checkings Regards Pritpal Bedi -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/gtwvt-1.1-vs-1.0-tp20961135p20981956.html Sent from the Harbour - Dev mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Harbour mailing list [email protected] http://lists.harbour-project.org/mailman/listinfo/harbour
