I am trying to figure out how to work with a multiple-column listbox.
The doco clearly shows how to create the Listbox as multi-colum:
-multicolumn => 0/1 (default 0)
but it says nothing about how to add/insert multicolumn items. Also, the
Win32::GUI::Listbox::Item documentation is, shall we
ave an event trigger so I could fetch the requested
information.
Is this possible? Should I be (ab)using a ListView for this?

What??! You mean you couldn't understand the crystal-clear Win32::GUI
docs? What's wrong with you?
Just kidding. The Win32::GUI docs are awful.
On that page, [X,Y]+ refers to a set of points (one point for each
vertex of the polygon). You pass the points as X, Y
coordinates in one long list
For what it's worth, I have always been unclear on what the Win32::GUI
doco means by "the event is not passed to the default event processor".
Any clarification, anywhere, would be useful.

Say I create a dll containing a library of custom controls (written in
C++, C#, whatever). How can I use these controls in a Win32::GUI
program?
Thanks in advance,

How do I compute the size (amount of screen real-estate) that a given
chunk of text will be, in a given font?
The reason I ask is that I am trying to change the text of a label, and
using the Text or Change methods do not resize the control; the control
stays at its original size and truncates any
I have the taskbar docked along the left side of the desktop. When I
start Win32::GUI programs that do not explicitly position their main
window, the main window generally starts way over on the left side of
the screen, obscured by the taskbar. I then have to move it to the
right in order to use

Upon further experimentation, there is something not quite right with
that. The width it returns is too wide. There seems to be some sort
of per-character skew -- short strings are very accurate; longer

I just spent the past few hours debugging this. I have narrowed down
the problem to the scope of the font object.
Here are two simple, complete test programs.
example 1
use Win32::GUI;
my $main = Win32::GUI::Window->new
(
-name => 'Main',
-width => 350,
-height =>
When some of my Win32::GUI programs exit, I get the above error
message. Trapping the error (via %SIG) gives no useful information,
as caller() reports that the error occurred at "main.pl, line 0".
Searching the web, I found a tantalizing almost-solution in this thread:
