Hi all,
I have an application that I've written that's in 3 parts. One part
is a W2K/XP service written in pure Perl. The second part is a control
panel that uses Win32::GUI and TGL. The third part is the display portion,
written in VB5. I'd like to update the VB portion to Perl.
The VB portion shows a "Rolling Line Graph" of data. Is there an
easy way to do this in Perl and Win32::GUI? I'm currently using MSCHART.OCX
to make the graph, but I'd like something that I have more control over.
This is a commercial product (that I've sold 10 copies of in the
last year, so I've lost money off of this, I do it more for fun).
Go to http://www.millham.net/dw6000 to see a screen shot of what the
graph looks like (it's the first image on the page)
BTW, has anyone played with Windows transparency in Win32::GUI; the
ability to make a window 50% transparent so that windows under the top
window will still be visible? I've played with it some using VB5, but on
W2K it causes a BSOD when combined with a notify icon. I've never really
tried to figure out what's going on. If I can to the graph with Win32::GUI,
and use a notify icon, and create windows transparency, then I'm going to
convert the VB5 code to perl.
