RE: Symbol Print SDK
u need to have ptdynlib.prc and printcap.pdb on ur unit. -Original Message- From: Richard.Johnstone [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, August 17, 2000 12:00 PM To: Palm Developer Forum Subject: RE: Symbol Print SDK Did you ever try the sample print program?? I can't seem to open the printer let alone try any of the other fun stuff. It just complains that the printer I specify in the open command cannot be found in the printcap database. I can't find any reference for the data structure for this so I presume it is in the library. Is there anything else I need?? This is the command status = ptOpenPrinter("Postscript",PTIr,psettings); -Original Message- From: Dave Lippincott [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, August 17, 2000 2:47 PM To: Palm Developer Forum Subject: Re: Symbol Print SDK Yes and Yes.

RE: Question on Launching Network prefrences from my application - Bug in buttons panel?
Thanks for the reply. Looks like I was using incorrect type and creator. It works once I changed these values. However, I noticed that the 'Done' button does not appear when I use this to launch the buttons panel (sysFileTPanel type and sysFileCButtons creator). Any idea why?

PrefSetPreference questions
Has anybody used PrefSetPreference extensively. Appreciate your help and time. Here are a few issues that I can't seem to figure out: (i) Where are the possible values for the arguement value for each of the choice type for the function below defined? PrefSetPreference(SystemSetPreferencesChoice choice, UInt32 value) value = 64; PrefSetPreference(prefSysSoundVolume, value); - this sets the sound to high. This is OK. value = 9; PrefSetPreference(prefSysSoundVolume, value); - this sets it to Medium. value = 1; PrefSetPreference(prefAlarmSoundVolume, value); - this also sets it to Medium value = 0; PrefSetPreference(prefAutoOffDuration, value); - this sets it to Off. This also is OK. (ii) How do you set the Overall Sound preference as seen on the "Prefs - General" screen. (iv) Why doesn't this function call seem to succeed? (atleast on Emulator - I know it doesn't have an IR beam but I can set it manually) UInt32 value = true; PrefSetPreference(prefBeamReceive, value); So, does this call not work for me. value = 1; PrefSetPreference(prefAutoOffDuration, value); - Srinivas -- For information on using the Palm Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/tech/support/forums/
