Re: Mac Scrolling
Today a breakthrough! I had what I thought was a vanilla version of Snow Leopard on a second partition on my MBP. Installation stripped of all optionals (printers, fonts, etc.). A few Apple updates to 10.6.2, a couple of 3rd party apps, and standard changes to system prefs. When I loaded rev I had the same scrolling problems as before! Erased and loaded 10.6.0 from my MBP install disks, again stripping all optionals. Made no changes at all, and loaded rev. SINGLE CLICK IN CHANNEL WORKS! Jump to here still doesn't, but I think we are agreed that would need scripting. Hopefully I only have to explore the add-ons of the previous vanilla (if I can remember them all) to isolate the cause of the problem.___ 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

Re: Mac Scrolling
It appears that the problem lies between rev and the trackpad of my 17 unibody MBP. Because I am so used to tap-click, I didn't think to use physical-click in rev. It turns out that single-physical-click works at all times, irrespective of the trackpad setting. The vanilla setting for trackpad is NO tap-click. When I started the new installation I used physical-click without realising the implications. If tap-click is set without dragging (probably an unusual setting) then no combination of taps works for scrolling in rev. If tap-click is set with dragging (my usual setting) then single-tap does nothing in rev, double-tap works like a single-click. Can someone test rev scrolling on a laptop with tap facilities. If it is not just my MBP then rev will need to look at this.___ 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

Re: [ANN] MS Word Import Mac/Win: WordLib 1.3
Howdy Folks, I happy to announce WordLib 1.3, a comprehensive solution for MS Word and OpenOffice document import. With a single command you can import a document to a field. (And there are more options under the hood for advanced users.) You can also store documents inside stacks. This is the real thing--text borders, highlights, images, links, footnotes, tables--it's all there! (Even down to the Roman numerals for notes.) The high-quality file translation for modern document formats is written in pure native RunRev scripting code for maximum power and compatibility. Very nice... and your timing is great also! I'm just about ready to start the documentation process for an almost finished project and will give this a try for sure. If all goes well, I'll gladly register. :-) I very briefly scanned the documentation, but might as well ask here in my reply: When saving an app that uses WordLib as a standalone, is there a requirement to distribute the library as a support file or will it automatically be included in the executable file?

If it is not just my MBP then rev will need to look at this. Confirmed here: Finder and Firefox both respond to the first tap, but in Rev the first tap is lost in the scrollbars for both fields and groups, requiring either a second tap or a physical click instead. I've noticed mixed behavior with tap vs click in other apps too, though offhand I can't recall what they are. Do any of you have examples of taps and clicks being handled differently by other apps? What's especially weird here is that I had previously thought that the tap triggered the same event record as is generated for a click when that option is turned on. But since Rev and at least a few other apps treat some taps different than clicks, it would seem the event record or some other aspect of the communication between the OS and the app is indeed different for taps than clicks. -- Richard Gaskin Fourth World Rev training and consulting: http://www.fourthworld.com Webzine for Rev developers: http://www.revjournal.com revJournal blog: http://revjournal.com/blog.irv ___ 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

[Datagrid] How to manage the empty area outside the selectable lines?
Hi all, I'm actually working with datagrids. First of all, I think that I have to explain my question, so: Basically a datagrid is divide in 4 parts: - headers - scroll bars - lines of data (that I call the selectable lines) - area with no data (that I call the empty area outside the selectable lines) I would like to manage this empty area. I planned to add a new line when an user double click in it. For doing that, I created this code in the datagrid script: on mouseDoubleUp If ((the dgHeader of the target is empty) and \ (the short name of the mouseControl is not dgCornerPiece)) then dg_AddNewLine long id of me,last,true --C put the dgNumberOfLines of me into tCurrentRow set the dgHilitedLines of me to tCurrentRow dispatch EditCell to me with line 2 of the cColumnNames of me,\ tCurrentRow end if end mouseDoubleUp I have difficulties with the scroll bars. When they exists but are not active (because the list is too small), they traps the double click and performs the creation of the new line. What is my best alternative if I assume that I have seen nothing in the API to manage this empty area? No doubt someone has already doing that. ;) I have already give a try to the mouseControl function but it not returns the scrollbar control because the datagrid bg objects rides the scrollbar. About this, by testing this solution, I seen an odd behavior with inactive horizontal scrollbars. When you click on the scrollbar and have lines in the datagrid, you select the corresponding line. Is it totally normal?

Re: Re :Mac Scrolling
It appears that the problem lies between rev and the trackpad of my 17 unibody MBP. Because I am so used to tap-click, I didn't think to use physical-click in rev. It turns out that single-physical-click works at all times, irrespective of the trackpad setting. The vanilla setting for trackpad is NO tap-click. When I started the new installation I used physical-click without realising the implications. If tap-click is set without dragging (probably an unusual setting) then no combination of taps works for scrolling in rev. If tap-click is set with dragging (my usual setting) then single-tap does nothing in rev, double-tap works like a single-click. Can someone test rev scrolling on a laptop with tap facilities. If it is not just my MBP then rev will need to look at this. Confirmed here: Finder and Firefox both respond to the first tap, but in Rev the first tap is lost in the scrollbars for both fields and groups, requiring either a second tap or a physical click instead. I've noticed mixed behavior with tap vs click in other apps too, though offhand I can't recall what they are. Do any of you have examples of taps and clicks being handled differently by other apps? What's especially weird here is that I had previously thought that the tap triggered the same event record as is generated for a click when that option is turned on. But since Rev and at least a few other apps treat some taps different than clicks, it would seem the event record or some other aspect of the communication between the OS and the app is indeed different for taps than clicks. I have an Apple Magic Mouse and I use the BetterTouchTool utility to allow me to tap instead of clicking. I always scroll by swiping, so I hadn't noticed the scroll bar problem, but I can see it now I test for it. I don't have any problem clicking a button with just a mouseUp handler, but if I have a mouseDown handler that does something, then a lot of the time it will miss the mouseUp message. I wonder is this what is happening in the scroll bars too? Cheers, Sarah P.S.

Quite nice. I'd looked into writing such a think myself at one time, but Curry's focused on this with an unusual diligence and passion that goes much farther than I would have been able to put into it myself. His library is perhaps the most complete interpretation of Word files possible in Rev, including just about everything Rev fields support - all the way down to images, tables, and more. In fact, his lib seems to render Word files with greater fidelity than even Apple's Text Edit app with the files I've been working with. Of course Rev fields don't do everything Work does, but what they do is handled here well and and in a form that's a breeze to work with, with most operations being simple one-liners. Malte-quality API design. :) Extra bonus points: not only does this lib support the latext Docx XML-based format, but also two earlier Word formats and the Open Office format. I'm about to make one of my clients very happy.
