David Cuny's GUI (again)

new topic     » topic index » view thread      » older message » newer message

hey i posted about a week ago asking about how i could constantly update
a dialog for a progress indicator thing, and david's response worked
pretty well...  thx a lot :)

now i have two more questions :)

1.  how come when i repeatedly do an edit_dialog() the cancel button on
the dialog flickers?  can i stop this?  (remember i just changed the
watch_keys() routine so that if a WAIT_FOR_KEY was set to 0, it would
just return -1 instead of waiting for a key press)  everything else
about it works perfectly!!

2.  how can i make/use a control without creating a dialog for it.  i
realise this is what you (david cuny) did to make ee, and i looked
through ee.ex and many of the gui libraries but i still can't figure out
how you did it!!  so far what i have is (something like) this:

sequence mle

mle = new_control(MLE)
mle[TITLE] = "Blah"
-- set many different attributes for the MLE here

except now i have no idea how to display the mle, or how to redraw it if
another dialog is put on top of it, etc.

help me plz?? :)  thx
