if and when you happen to have the time and mood, could you try to
mock a slider that has this dot-y handle knob, but also slides in a
"pit" like the original? i kinda-sorta realize that would make it look
dangerously close to a scroll bar, but i'm curious how that would turn
out or whether or not it could be somehow made to work.
I think it will look too much like a scrollbar, but I may give it a try later.
and here's a question as well. does wings support some sort of layout
management stuff? this measure-everything-by-the-pixel way that wprefs
is written in is a pita, very unflexible and it's sort of granted that
the places where pixels are stolen from neighbour elements, first
translation will break them.
anything there to help with that? i'm not expecting swing or qt, just
maybe percentages that adjust themselves on resize (no, i haven't yet
looked at any docuwhat).
I have not seen anything like a layout manager in WINGs. To be fair, I have
only been digging around in the low level drawing code. If you wanted to add
this, I would suggest adding the functionality in W_MoveView and W_ResizeView,
which is what most of the widgets use to position themselves.
