I guess I'm an idiot when working in Windows, but a few simple
questions:
1. How can I make sure that the i-beam cursor is visible in a text
field? I am tweaking a windows version of a Mac app, and sometimes
the i-beam is there and sometimes it isn't. I compared the fields in
question and they seem identical - focusable, auto hilite text,
traversal on, share text, etc. The cursor changes to an i-beam when
it passes over the field, but is invisible when inserted, but i can
type and select - seems weird without that blinking i-beam, which a
user would definitely expect to see.
2. Is there anything special about "move" in Windows - I have some
scripts that moveobjects, and sometimes they work, albeit it a little
bit jerky, sometimes they don't happen at all and other times the
object just shows up at the destination with no mevement in between.
3. What up with visual effects in Windows? OK, I admit I am doing
something that isn't mentioned at all in the docs, and that is
showing groups on a card with effects like wipe, scroll and reveal
(the docs only mention transitions between cards and stacks.) but
they work on the Mac. At first I thought maybe that's just a little
bonus on the Mac, but then I saw that in a couple of instances they
DO happen in Windows! Similar groups, same effect, sometimes it
works, sometimes it doesn't. Some built in effects don't seem to
work at all. This is a childrens progam, and the cheesy motion
effects are important.
At first I thought it might be the fact that this is a cheap machine
with a Celeron processor, but some things work, others don't. A lot
of you must have had these problems and found solutions, right?
I am not ragging on Windows, - heck! - a previous problem of mine,
namely inserting a field and wanting the keyboard map to switch to
Russian in the case of a Russian text field, and to Estonian in the
case of an Estonian field works automatically in Windows, but not at
all on the Mac. By the way, does anyone know why this is and how to
fix it on the Mac?
Cheers,
Lars
