This is for "rootless" environments where every PicoGUI window is actually managed by some host window management system. Currently the only time this app manager should be used is when running in rootless mode with the X11 driver. > - Panel app manager This is the usual draggable panel system you see PicoGUI running by default > - Null app manager This puts no decorations or interactivity around applications, it just makes them simple box widgets. In both the panel and null app managers, you can resize and rearrange applications just like any other widgets, by setting their size and side properties. > > Currently I have a scenario, where I have several apps in one client > registered at the pgserver using > pgRegisterApp(PG_APP_NORMAL, "MyApp_1",0) > pgRegisterApp(PG_APP_NORMAL, "MyApp_2",0) > pgRegisterApp(PG_APP_NORMAL, "MyApp_3",0) > > When I want to show for instance MyApp_2 instead of MyApp_1 I use > > pgSetWidget(pgFindWidget"MyApp_1",PG_WP_SIZE, 0,0); > pgSetWidget(pgFindWidget"MyApp_2",PG_WP_SIZE, PG_WP_ALL, 0); Hmm, where does PG_WP_ALL come from? > > I there any possibility to bring an application to the top regardless, which > APP is currently on the screen ? > Or is there a better way to navigate between several Apps ? > How can I toggle between Applications, when there are more than one Client ? One solution that might work for you is to always keep all apps full-size, but reorder them in the widget tree so that the active app splits off first and takes all available space. I don't believe it's possible to rearrange root widgets using pgAttachWidget however, so you might end up writing a custom app manager. --Micah -- Only you can prevent creeping featurism! ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: The Robotic Monkeys at ThinkGeek For a limited time only, get FREE Ground shipping on all orders of $35 or more.
