1. SpinBall...

Tommy, I want to press CTRL to make it affect the z-axis. How
would I go about doing that? I'm having a difficult time
coordinating a CTRL key press with spinning the ball.

You want Ctrl+Spin to rotate a 3rd angle? No problem, I'll implement it as soon
as possible. Other suggestions are also welcome.

BTW: I'd like to know in what kind of application people are using the
SpinBall-control. And if anybody is already using the LayoutPanels.

I'll show you my app pretty soon. Gotta work out some kinks. I'm
losing KeyDown and mouse wheel response in a win32lib app and it
doesn't make sense. Hopefully derek will get back to me on that soon. :)

Spinball doesn't run here, i get this error:

D:\Euphoria\spinball\eucntrls.ew:12
Win32LibVersion has not been declared
if Win32LibVersion[1]=0 and Win32LibVersion[2]<60 then

Perhaps not all the required files are included in the .zip file? (They should 
be, else you have people guessing what to do to make your app run.)

You probably need Win32Lib 0.60.1 or later.

SpinBall needs 1 library: EuControls (eucntrls.ew), which is included.
EuControls needs Win32Lib, which is not included.

I never include Win32Lib in a .zip-file that is for Euphoria-developers. If you
want to use SpinBall, or LayoutPanels or other EuControls, you need Win32Lib.
Look in the Recent User Contributions: the description of SpinBall (and that of
LayoutPanels) clearly says that it "needs EuControls (included) and Win32Lib (not
included)".

> "else you have people guessing what to do to make your app run."
SpinBall is not an application, it's a control. It's meant to be used by
Euphoria-programmer that make Win32Lib-applications.

Is Win32Lib included in EuGrid? No. Is Win32Lib included in EDB? No. Is Win32Lib
included in IDE? No.
Why not? Because they (and I) assume that people using their
tools/controls/applications already have Win32Lib.

Also, Win32Lib is a giant download, and people get grumpy when they have 
to download win32lib many times for each library/application.

Perhaps i should have said the required version of win32lib, and the required 
includes of win32lib. You are right, most of the apps/tools/libs/whatever in 
the user contribs have not included the necessary files to get them to run 
right out of the box. And not all win32lib require the same includes that it 
ships with, so it gets pretty messy sometimes, swapping in all the versions 
from 0.15b onwards into the /include or /bin dir of the applications. Or reading
thru the source code to figure it out. Or firing up the 
application/tool/demos/whatever, and chasing down the files that the 
undeclared vars are declared in, only to find out the win32lib you thought was 
the correct one, isn't.

Kat,
pondering microsoft selling Notepad without the required operating system.
