> Use $progressbar->Change( -foreground => [$r,$g,$b], -background => [$r2,$g2,$b2] ) to change the colour, adding SetColor methods would probably mean doing things I don't really feel comfortable with, like rebuilding Makefile.pl and stuff. I'm not sure of the commands to do that, so I'm not going to do it in case i break it. If anyone knows how to do it, the info would be greatly appreciated.
Sounds good - I can't see anyone complaining at that. > I'm mostly working on a widget arrangement module called CoolGrid. It behaves like a widget itself, and lets you pack multiple widgets into a grid with various attributes (like hfill, vfill, cell alignment etc). It allows you to size columns and rows with the mouse and all other columns scale accordingly. It's major sexy addition is dockable windows - if you add a dialogbox or window into the grid it becomes a dockable panel that can be dragged out of the grid and then snapped back into it. It'll be released as alpha soon. Cool. >Yes, I'd like to be able to do this, but I think it's quite a big project to add all this functionality. I will look into it and see. Actually, it didn't seem that difficult - even though I gave up becuase it was to difficult:) It is mostly passing stuff to functions and windows does the rest. > You should consider playing around with the ReBar control if you want draggable IE-style toolbars. Interesting - I'll have a nose. Currently I use a set of buttons (much like Loft). >Usually if this happens I either use Win32::API to get around the problem nastilly or add the functionality to Win32::GUI myself. From a user perspective, people could say "oh good for you, and what am *I* supposed to do?", but I rarely see feature requests made on the sourceforge site, and if I see nothing there, I generally assume users don't want anything much new. One thing I've been looking into is Japanese character support, I don't speak japanese and thank god that I know Windows 2000 well enough not to have to be able to read, since i've had to change the language settings to japanese in order to fix this bug. Ok - I would be more than willing to add feature requests/bug reports on sourceforge - going forward should we all do this? >Which examples fail? Just running through the samples (Win32-GUI-0.0.670\samples I'm on XP, latest 665-fix build): button.pl (crashes) cmeta.pl (crashes) dc.pl (perl errors) frm2pl.pl (perl errors) mousemove.pl (crashes) nemtimer.pl (perl errors) pmx.pl (crashes) pride.pl (crashes) progressbar.pl (perl errors) testfield.pl (crashes) vmeta.pl (perl errors) winppm.pl (perl errors) I ran them as if I was a new user. By double clicking, or from the command line. Cheers, jez.
