OK thanks Larry, I will try setting up a modified defaults flag as a constant, and use that wherever I have a control that should be not visible initially. I know is not as easy to code as simply using setVisible(control,0) but I feel its a bit lame to define something only to immediately change it again before you have even used it.
Actually, I find it quite common to "create" a control on one line, then "set it up" on several more. Seems to me that there are sections to a program: include, create, initialize, events, and finally, run.
-- include include Win32Lib.ew without warning -- create constant Window1 = create( Window, "TextBox", 0, Default, Default, 400, 300, 0 ) constant LText1 = create( LText, "Enter your text here:", Window1, 10, 10, 370, 20, 0 ) constant RichEdit1 = create( RichEdit, "", Window1, 10, 30, 370, 230, 0 ) -- initialize addStyle( Window1, {0,WS_EX_CLIENTEDGE} ) setTextColor( LText1, BrightRed ) setFont( RichEdit1, "Courier New", 10, Normal ) -- events --(none) -- run WinMain( Window1, Normal )
