Re: How do I control a Java applet in my browser from Rev?

2005-12-14 Thread Thomas McGrath III
Dennis, I would see if the streaming stock app is Applescript-able. If it is then REV can do this for you using Applescript. The newest version of Applescript has a lot of new features including clicking at a buttons location and support for apps that do not have much applescript support.

If you mean it moves the menuBar to center screen and the toolbar to screencenter, well it does do that BUT that is not moving them back to where they were at all and most people do not know how to move the menuBar to its original position. Tom On Dec 14, 2005, at 1:07 PM, Mathewson

Richmond, You have the script set to (item 3 of screenRect)which is 1600/2=800 which is at the center of my screen. That is where the revMenuBar gets put after running your script in Tool Bars. This may work on your screen due to your screen size but that won't work on other screens.

Hello all listers, I had an experience with a sample stack that at first threw me off and I may have responded to the what the stack did harshly. I'm not sure. But it brought up a point for me. Is it considered good form to point out how someone's hard worked stack performs if it does so
