Lots of problems I had been struggling with have become clear to me and my apps have a much more solid foundation now. All of the subjects which involve the code that 'surrounds' my own specific code have been covered in my view and by using the free 'GLX Application Framework' I have the foundation that I need for my apps. Trevor explains really well and there is plenty of room to ask questions, also afterwards by mail. For me it was worth every dollar.

Re : set the textStyle not to bold
Richard wrote : I've tried using graphics for things like that. Seems like fun at first, until you need to wrap across different lines. Then you need to handle different textHeights. Then you pull out all your hair. ;) One of the cool things about htmlText is that it's designed as the one way to have complete fidelity for reproducing a field's contents, style runs and all. So conceivably you could add in tags for backgroundcolor of the text runs you want visually distinct. It can take a bit of clever parsing to get it right, but check out the optional third param for the offset function in the dictionary - it's a godsend for parsing tasks like this. To see the format of htmlText, style some text in a field how you want it and run put the htmlText of fld 1 in the Message Box. Everything you can do with a field can be represented in htmlText, so conversely you can do anything to htmlText that you can do to a field. Thanks Richard, you're right. I had come across it last night when I was trying it with a graphic. I will dive into the html and use it's tags for changing the backColor.

Re: Rev app 'not responding' under Vista, but fine in XP
Thanks to Richard, Phil Jacqueline, the 'wait 0' does the trick, with or without messages. I just put it as the first line in my repeat loop. This is what I've found for those who are interested in Vista behaviour - a stack is more predisposed to become 'not responding' in the IDE than as a standalone. As a standalone it does not usually become non-responsive unless there is a lot of other stuff going on; however if windows task manager is open, my app is almost guaranteed to become 'non-responsive' during one particular large repeat loop. However adding a wait 0 at the start of the loop seems to do the trick (without speed impact), I haven't been able to make it go non-responsive with that line in there. regards Martin ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution

Menus
Slowly getting menus to work. In a large HC stack of mine, the menuItems of a single menu called doStuff changes depending on which card I am on. Same name, different menuItems. In practice, as I navigate, I could delete and recreate the menu and its menuItems, or I could simply change the menuItems themselves (and of course their menuMessages). In Rev, is there a preferred way to do this? Do you make a new group for each card, and set the menuBar property?

Have a mouseDown handler in the menubar group itself (there is a button in the Menu manager to edit this script), and in that handler, work out what card you are on and change the menuItems accordingly. Remember that menus are really only buttons and the menuItems are the contents of that button, so you just need to say: put newItems into btn doStuff You could have a custom property with the same name on each card that contains the list of menuItems, so then you would not need to even check which card you were on, but just have: put the cMenuContents of this card into btn doStuff The script of the doStuff menu button will have to have the code to handle all the possible options.

Using a player instead of an image
As has been discussed before, there is a problem with image objects on OS X if the image they are trying to display is wider than about 4000 pixels. BUT a player object will display these wide images without any problems. So is there anything I should know before I change to using players instead of images? They seems to respond in the same way to clicks, I can get the formatted height width, and if I don't show the controller, then the players look just like images.

Re: Using a player instead of an image
Hi Sarah, Formattedheight and -width don't work correctly if the player is hidden or if a stack is being opened and the players is being loaded before the stack window is visible. There are problems with visual effects. There are lots of problems with putting objects over player objects. MouseClicks may not work. Usually, if you try to solve one of these problems, another problem arises. I hate your idea.

Applying the concept of Images libraries (vector and bitmaps )

Notice that Graphics software, like Adobe Ilustrator, Flash and Xara have implemented this concept: http://www.jnack.com/adobe/flash/symbols.html How could we implement this concept with our stacks, so there is not need to import the same bitmaps or vector graphics to apply different effects or dimensions in different cards?

Recently, capellan wrote: How do you handle the particular case, where the same image is used in different cards using varied ink effects and sizes? I haven't had to do this. If you need to scale/affect an instance of the image, I suppose you could follow the method of the graphic symbol hack: use a source image and an instance image, and manually script something like put img mySource into img myInstance. This way you can tweak the instance image separately from the source image. As soon as you run the previous script, though, the instance will take on the characteristics of the source, but if the instance is locked, it will stay scaled. Why is important sub-pixel positioning and imge distortions? Sub-pixel positioning will improve the results of object rotation and movement because currently these actions are somewhat coarse -- rotating a dial, for example, jumps around because the 1 pixel resolution in Rev is not fine enough to produce smooth rotation. Irregular image distortion would us to better create effects like page turns, cover flow/carousel effects, and simulate 3D manipulation of images. There is currently no way to create these kind of effects natively within Rev -- you need to create a series of frame images outside of Rev that are pre-distorted.
