Further developments following the following:
Firstly, I discovered problem (3) in my earlier message occurs, on my PC
at least, for size setting 100% and/or below. Setting a size of 200% or
more "solves" that problem.
Next: I continued the lab, but encountered a J crash, along the lines of
"Windows encountered an error - is investigating - CANCEL"
this occurred at chapter 4 (8) as far as I could tell.
I restarted J, to see if the error recurred. I skipped to chapter
(4), but
found runquiet (or quietrun - I forget as J's disappeared!) missing, so
had to run ch (0) and ch (1) before skipping to ch (4). This time it ran
4(8) and onwards a little bit more, successfully.
I now tried to make sure it was ok at 4 (8) without skipping at all, so I
reloaded the lab. Yes, it successfully negotiated 4(8) again, but, in
this
same session, later crashed at chapter 6, section 1.
That's as far as I've got. I hope this is of some use to Bob and/or others.
Cheers,
Mike

I'm still in the middle of the lab, so might be overlooking some set-up
possibilities, but the following early remarks might be useful to you
(Bob):
JVERSION
Engine: j806/j64avx/windows
Beta-4: commercial/2017-06-27T12:46:20
Library: 8.06.03
Qt IDE: 1.5.3/5.6.2
Platform: Win 64
Installer: J806 install
InstallPath: c:/d/j806
Contact: www.jsoftware.com
The machine is a LENOVO laptop, Z50, with an AMD A10 processor.
0) " When the Jig windows are no longer needed, close them by
clicking on the red dot in the upper left corner of the
message box."
I don't see any red dot, although clicking in the usual place closes the
window easily enough.
1) The window is resizable - fine. But if I do enlarge the window,
the interior box displaying the material is NOT resized; it typically
has vertical and horizontal sliders shown, respectively at the top and
the left of their tracks.
2) The displayed is not "centred" in that box; for example, with
v ,. 1;2;3j4;409808e21;409807987979797806576578x;6r13247
all 6 boxed rows ARE shown, but they are masked on the right hand
side by the vertical border of the box; sliding the horizontal slider to
the right does reveal the 6 boxes fully;
3) However, with that example, using either available font, the longest
string, "409807987979797806576578" , does not sit properly in its
box. The rightmost "8" intersects the vertical bar of the box.
All known "features" perhaps, and they've possibly been mentioned in
other correspondence.
It's very promising, thanks,
Mike

Greetings everyone,
I have just completed uploading a new addon that I have named Jig. It
takes the standard J text display and upgrades it to an interactive
SVG display that allows quick access to type and shape and a host of
other information about the results of J sentences.
I have posted a short video (1 minute) demo here:
https://youtu.be/dK1y_V07214
Once you have updated using Package Manager you should be able to run
it.
There is also a lab in the 'debug' category that will check that your
system is running the full version of the QT ide required for web
displays like Jig.
I find it most useful when I have assigned a function key to it as
described in the second last chapter of the lab. Just make sure that
assigning the function key does not put you in conflict with any
start up scripts that you may be running.
This is my first addon so I hope that I have not made too big a mess
of things and I look forward to your feedback.
Cheers, bob
