Hi!
There was some discussion here to rather have an MDI
interface instead of the current one using several windows.
Now, I find the current one much more flexible.
While I added geometry manager support for the cc window
yesterday I found that in end.tcl there's a list of windows
that get iconified/raised automatically onces scid
opens/closes. This is statically coded. Wouldn't it be
better to have it as a list where a window could be just
hooked on? The code in question is
# Now iconify/deiconify all the major Scid windows that exist:
foreach w {.baseWin .glistWin .pgnWin .tourney .maintWin \
.ecograph .crosstabWin .treeWin .analysisWin1 .anslysisWin2 \
.playerInfoWin .commentWin .repWin .statsWin .tbWin \
.sb .sh .sm .noveltyWin .emailWin .oprepWin .plist \
.rgraph .sgraph .importWin .helpWin .tipsWin .ccWindow} {
if {[winfo exists $w]} { catch {wm $type $w} }
}
in line 1696ff. (Took me a while to find it...) Actually,
adding all windows there and using sicds geometry manager
that stores window sizes and positions IMHO we could have
best of both worlds: all windows could be minized wiht just
a mouse click, and still they could freely places on the
desktop.
