1. Re: Month Calendar control: make dates bold? Notification delay in Win32Li
Hi there Jonas,
The following code works for the initial cal settings. The notification
will have to be processed in order to update the calendar once the
months have changed.
atom pDSs
pDSs=allocate(4*12) --allocate space for 12 months
for k=0 to 2 do
poke4(pDSs+k*4,k) --None for leading month, day 1 for present month, etc.
end for
retv=IDSendMessage(MC1,MCM_SETDAYSTATE,3,pDSs) --days get set to bold
Once the cal is displayed the days in the first three months are
affected but you cant see the leading month's first day when only
one cal gets displayed (according to draw space available) but
the present month's first day is bold and the trailing month's
second day is also bold. Once the month is changed via arrowheads
the bold'ness goes away, so the notification message will have to
be processed in order to restore the present month and perhaps set
other months to whatever values the user has stored for them.
Since this kind of change could possibly span years, you'll have to
come up with some arrangement to store values for the user so that
when the cal is changed it can be properly updated.
I was thinking of perhaps a system to store bold dates where something
important is happening on that day (appointments). Linked to a text
editor, this could be a simple appointment book. The required storage
would depend on how far into the future the user wanted to be able
to set appointment dates i guess.
Take care,
Al
And, good luck with your Euphoria programming!
