Question regarding a window shape for a stack in Windows

2011-06-30 Thread Jonathan Lynch
Hi Everyone, I am using Rev 4.0. When I set the window shape of a stack, thus removing the system frame from the stack, I encounter a problem. The stack takes on its new shape without difficulty, but it is no longer visible in the menu that arises when I use alt+tab to switch between

Hi Jonathan: The only way I've ever been able to get around this in my projects is to use an additional normal topLevel stack that appears offscreen and acts as a proxy for the application. Maybe there's another option but I've never seen one. If you really want to be thorough, you should know

Hi Scott, thanks for your reply. It makes sense, and I might do this. It seems so lame to me that we would be forced into doing this. It works fine with 2.6.1, so it should work fine with later versions. I'll play around with it and see if I can come up with a solution similar to what you

Just started using these beasts and not getting very far. The dictionary entry for combobox says Using the text box at the top of the combo box, the user can specify a state that is not in the menu's list of states. What text box does that refer to? How do I type a new value into a combobox?

OK, thanks for pointing me in the right direction, I have everything working now. There doesn't appear to be very much documentation on this, so in case it helps other combobox neophytes, here's a summary of what I found. The menuPick message can be processed just like any other menuPick

Pete, I gave up on comboboxes for a different reason--they don't have the unicodeText property, being half-buttons, half fields. I ended up emulating a combobox by putting two fields on the card--a one-line text input field, and below it, a list field. The list field is locked and initially

Jonathan, are you able to minimize the stack from the taskbar? In my QD limited testing here, minimizing doesn't seem to work unless it's done from a script in the stack, and even then, the stack just hides. But it does get listed in the taskbar, which is good. Regards, Scott Rossi Creative
