Not so simple ;-(

OK, to give the position in label (not change the position of song) while
moving the trackbar + button still clicked.

But I would like, when the button is released, that the position of the song
changes on that new value (uos_seek()).

How to know that the button was released and assign something at that
moment?

Thanks.

Huh, this mail was about StrumPract and Tslider, not about ideU project
(that does not uses, afaik, any Tslider).

But maybe I do not catch something.

PS: About StrumPract and Tslider, yes, I have to do code (asap).  But
without code, like it is now, it is not so bad.
It is more like "scratching" or fast forward-review but it works too.

It probably happened by wrong conversion of ttabwidget.captionframe_*, should 
be fixed now.
You still need to reset files_tab.tab_frame.framei_* and to set 
files_tab.tab_frametab.framei_* manually because of the failed conversion.

ideU does not compile with original MSEgui. Can you provide a simple testcase

The definition of the tab padding has been changed. From VERSION.TXT:
"
MSEide+MSEgui breaking changes version history
**
2017-09-14
 Definition of the inner active area of buttons is made with
 the new tframe property frameo_* instead of framei_*,
 framei_* is used in order to adjust the caption rect.
 ttabs.captionframe_* replaced by tframe.framei_*.

Did you have special settings? In principle it should be converted

There is a problem with last commit and ttabwidget.

I did recompile ideU with last commit and the height of tabs is not correct

Small tip:
  NEVER use JPG format for screenshots. It generates way to much
  compression noise in the image. Use preferably PNG or GIF. If
  PNG images seem to large, switch them to Indexed PNG's (limited to
  a 256 color palette based on the colors of the image). The GIMP is
  you friend. ;-)  Any good screenshot tool worth buying would also
  support Indexed PNG's as well as RGB/normal based PNG's.

The size of the added image must be 4x4 pixels. Better to use png instead jpg 
because of the needed pixel precision.

Well, I deleted all the 4x4 pixels pictures where some blank pixels were

And recreate new from scratch.

Now, all is ok. (see picture)
 

Sorry for the noise (but strange that those white pixels were added).

In the picture tabframe.jpg each tab has on right-top a part of line white.
I suppose it is for the lightning effect.
But is it possible to have all the line in black, without that white part

OK, I will do a nice video of MSE-dock in action.

OK, done but... what is it for? I do not see any change in hint of grip
panel I want to write in the hint of the grip what you explain just
before. But only in the hint of the grip, not change the caption of the
tabs.

>>The main form stay tabbed ;-(

Excellent, it works like charms.

> dragdock.onlayoutchanged will be called too,
> dragdock.activewidget returns the active docked widget, it can be nil. 

Perfect, I get what I want.

Other thing.
I try to customize the tabs of the main dock form.
For this I did:

---> basedock.drackdock.tab.frame.tframecomp1

where tframecomp1 has rounded corner in parameters (like in ideU-tabs).

But the tabs do not become rounded ;-(

It could be that tframecomp1 is not ok, but I checked and it has the same
parameters than ideU-tabs.

It is like it apply round corner for the main frame, not the tabs.

Also, this is ok for changing the height but the faceactivetab does not
change the color of tab: --->

procedure tmainfo.onchangelayout(const sender: tdockcontroller);
begin
if (basedock.dragdock.currentsplitdir = sd_tabed) and
(basedock.dragdock.activewidget <> nil) then 
begin
if basedock.dragdock.activewidget = drumsfo then 
begin
height := 275;
basedock.dragdock.tab_faceactivetab := drumsfo.tfacedrums
end else
if basedock.dragdock.activewidget = guitarsfo then 
begin
height := 105;
basedock.dragdock.tab_faceactivetab := guitarsfo.tfaceguitars;
end else
...
etc...

end;

Thanks.

You know that it is possible to switch to tabs by dragging the grip to the 
center of the window? Switching back to split mode happens by dragging the 
grip to the bottom or the left border of the window.

Split caption can be activated by .frame.grip_options 
go_showsplitcaption.

You probably need to check "currentsplitdir" in mainfo.updatelayout() and act 
accordingly.

"onshow" of the selected docked form will be called. 
.dragdock.onlayoutchanged will be called too, dragdock.activewidget 
returns the active docked widget, it can be nil.

Re: [MSEide-MSEgui-talk] MSE and docking.

[fredvs]

Hello Martin.

Im deep in mse dock.

OK, "simple" main dock form is working impressive perfectly.

Floated forms the same.

Now time to jump into "tabed" main dock form.

This to give 3 layout options in main menu (Dock, Tab, Float).

Maybe you remember when I was taking about the hint of the grip for docked
forms that does not appear like wanted.
What I did understand is to use for changing the hint of grip panel:

---> dragdock.caption := ' Use this to Drag Drop the Song Player window '

But for me it does not appear in grip-panel, in place the title of the form
appears as hint when moving mouse on grip panel.

But now I know where he is! 

This reveals where it was hidden:

--->  basedock.dragdock.currentsplitdir:= sd_tabed; 

See picture:
 

Could it be that it was inverted (the caption of the tab should be the title
of the form and reverse for the grip-panel) ?

Or maybe I am mixing things.

Anyway, I did change dragdock.caption to have correct tab title.
(Of course, if tab-layout is choosed, main-menu should have less items, but
that is for tonigth...).

See picture2.
 

Other thing.
When doing this:
--> basedock.dragdock.currentsplitdir:= sd_tabed;
OK, main form becomes tabbed.

But how to come back with a no-tabbed main dock form ?
This does not do the trick:
--> basedock.dragdock.currentsplitdir:= sd_none;

The main form stay tabbed ;-(

Other thing:
When selecting a tab, the heigth of main form is changed, how to keep or
change by code the size of main form when a tab is selected ?

And how to play with the tabs, how to know what tab was selected and assign
a method for each tab selected ?

The goal is to have auto-size of main form when a tab is selected to keep
the same size as the original size of the form selected by the tab.

OK, I stop for now.

Many thanks.

Fre;D

Re-hello Martin.

Your patch is lovely.

I did only a little change:

procedure tmainfo.oncreatedform(const sender: TObject);
begin
if not fileexists(tstatfile1.filename) then ondockall(sender);
end;

This to have all the forms docked for first run.

Thanks.

WOW.  And this is exactly what I wanted since th beginning (but was not able
to do).

And it can save/retrieve  mix of floated and docked windows --> perfect.

OK, time to study what you changed.

Many thanks.

The git-patch feature is very impressive.
Thanks to have used the last strumpact commit for statfile.patch.

For first layout.patch, I did modification in code after last commit.
So I did a regression to be able to apply the patch (the patch was refused).
And after manually add the previous modifications.

But maye it is possible to apply a patch even if code was changed ?

Anyway layout.patch and statfile.patch where perfectly apply.
And I have exactly what I wanted.

OK, I will play with it, thanks.

About status.sta and strumpract:

procedure tmainfo.oncreatedform(const sender: TObject);
begin
ondockall(sender);
end;

I would like to not use ondockall(sender) at creation and use instead
status.sta for form position to save/load last layout.
 
Sadly, when doing this (after assigned status.sta for each form), after
closing + reloading the application, the layout is not the same.

Please use MSEgui current git master version, I broke tabbed docking recently 
while trying to make docking more robust for your application, sorry.

Ok done. Perfect, have test, no more problems, many thanks.

Huh,.., about "Tabbed dock" forms, is it possible to do it by code too

With what propreties must I play ?

Set the statfile properties of the widgets/components which should store the

Why do you store layout information in statfile although you set the position, 
size and dock parent in code? Please clear the statfile property of the forms 
other than mainfo.

Re-re-re hello Martin.

Aaargh, I monopolize you forum, sorry.

About problem of previous mail (load strumpract with a status.sta).

After some more test, no good news.  It still appends, even after reboot,
let say 1 times on 3.

To resume if open strumpract and close it, and reopen it, 1 time on 3, the
docking is not ok.

Re-re hello Martin.

About problem of previous mail (load strumpract with a status.sta), it

Now, after reboot, it is ok every time.  So sorry for the noise (but maybe
you are a idea why sometimes it appends).

Thanks.

I think so too. I source of the problem is FPC, and that is where the

I do applaud Fred for his efforts and energy to come up with something

Huh, it seems to be.

OK, thanks.

Other thing.

I was successfully able to translate PThread.h into pascal dynamic loading
header: --->

https://github.com/fredvs/dynx

It works perfectly for fpGUI (with MSE, I have to adapt code, but sure you
will do it better than me ;-)).

So the question:

Do you thing it could be possible to also dynamic load libdl.so (the library
for dynamically load libraries) ?
I did the translation of dl.h  into pascal dynamic loading header but was
not able to do it work.

But maybe it is normal that it does not work because libdl.so needs ...
libdl.so to dynamic load it self.
And so maybe the only working way is to do static linking for libdl.so.

(Once again, something difficult to explain, I hope you did understand).

Thanks.

Fre;D

The size of the main form must be adjusted to the minimal sizes of the docked
