Re: Continues flds
Hey, Jim, Thanks for stepping in and clearing up Hershel's probable intent. Too much for me as well. Unless he is actually trying to emulate a Layout Program such as Quark, he'd probably be better off revising his objective. If so, maybe someone else has an idea.

Bonjour Hershel, Le 8 mai 08 à 00:53, Hershel Fisch a écrit : I'm trying to have text in a field and in the next page (like a book) or card it should start where the previous page left off. Hershel Two years ago I did it in a kind of 'book' layout: see the LAMM project at http://www.sosmartsoftware.com/?r=logicielsl=en As the user could change the text size, I had to reorganize it on - the-fly and calculate 'text flow'. The only thing I remember well is that was tricky ;-) I ended by having a single card with one (or two) field containing the whole text (without scroll bar) and just set the scroll programmatically combined with a visual effect to 'fake' pages turning. So I did not use what you call 'flds continuing' but two fields only even if a wipe left/right let the user think the 'card' has changed. May be a clue for you?

If you had text continue, book like, onto the next card, the field that it continues in would probably want to be the same background field. This was a question I've had too, how do you drag a field onto the card, make a new card, and still see the field you just made (because it's a background field)? I don't mean a shared text one either, that's easy to do if you can get the basic background field going. Even doing a set the editbackground of this stack to true is not enough to let you make a background field. ___ 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: Continues flds
Unlike HC, Rev doesn't use the background concept. So, to do what you want: 1. Create a New Mainstack 2. Drag a scrollable (or non-scrollable) field from the Tools palette onto the stack. It only has one card at this time. 3. Select that field 4. Click on the Group Button in the Tool Bar 5. If you don't see the Object Inspector for that field double click on the field using the Edit Pointer Tool 6. Set the check-box for Behave like a Background - at the bottom of the Object Inspector Window. You now have a field that will appear on all of the new cards that you create. If you want it to share text, you'll have to set that property as well; otherwise each card can have unique text.

Re: Continues flds
Colin, I understand. Nothing in Rev is quite as simple as it was with HC. I think you'll find that it is best/easiest to set up all of the so- called background objects on the first card of the stack, since I think it gets even more complicated if you want to create background objects once you have a whole bunch of cards. And it would be a good idea to set all of the Objects' properties at that time as well. So try to plan ahead if you can.

Re: Continues flds
OK this is what I did as a VERY BASIC test to create a field that once you 'fill a field up' it will automatically take you to the 'Next Card' which has the same field and allows you to just keep typing. New stack. New plain field 'Field1' Make it a group and give it backgroundBehavior Make a New Card and check that 'Field1' is automatically copied across. In the group script put this 11 line script. 1 ON rawKeyDown pKeyCode 2 IF ((the formattedheight of field Field1) (the height of field Field1)) THEN 3 go to card (the number of this card + 1) 4 put char -1 field Field1 of card (the number of this card - 1) into field Field1 5 delete char -1 of field Field1 of card (the number of this card - 1) 6 select after field Field1 7 pass rawKeyDown pKeyCode 8 ELSE 9 pass rawKeyDown pKeyCode 10END IF 11 END rawKeyDown Notes: 1) Unlike the documentation that say its important to 'pass rawKeyDown' and then give an example without the the actual key code to pass, it's imperative to include this vital parameter. 2) You need to play with formattedHeight and height because in this basic version the text will skip to the next field when their is still quite a margin left - I assume it has something to do with margins so maybe formattedHeight (height + margin) or margin/2? 3) You'll need to be check that a Next Card exists or create one if doesn't. 4) Haven't though too much about Pasting text in - I imagine you'd need some kind of 'Repeat for each' loop to simulate typing the text in. It's a very basic start, but it's possible. ___ 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
