That is exactly what I request (and what I already partly implemented): enhance the existing NoGUI Widget set (simply) by a event queue. Here it would be a good ide to reuse the proven event queue code provided by the GTK(2) Widget type. (Only same should be moved out of the forms* files into it's own ones to make it reusable without copying it.) A greater challenge is to do (e.g.) the TTimer for this Widget set that will one of the components that provide events for that queue. Here I do have a working Linux example taken from MSEIDE (using a signal on the low-level (Linux only) > You are trying to kill a fly with a cannon > if you want a widget-set. What is wrong with killing a fly with a cannon, if you do it once and it makes designing many subsequent projects a lot easier to do... -Michael -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list [email protected] http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
