I understand that, but if Plucker Desktop is invoking PlkrData, then it knows that something has changed and can just set ITSELF up.
I guess what I'm calling for is for whoever is working on Plucker Desktop (sorry, I don't know who's who yet) to work with you to add your functionality to that program. It seems to me, that would provide the most intuitive user experience. - Tim >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 11/19/02 03:26PM >>> > >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 11/19/02 02:29PM >>> >Since I haven't gotten any more feedback, I finished up icon functionality >my way and have tossed her up on the web. > > http://kittycentral.net/Plucker/PlkrData.html ><snip> >Feedback would be very appreciated. > > -Tony McNamara At 03:09 PM 11/19/2002 -0500, TIM CONSTANTINE wrote: >Great work Tony.

Yes, just one thing... If PlkrData installs a new channel while Plucker Desktop is already running, the less savvy users will wonder why the new channel doesn't appear in Desktop. The reason is that Desktop reads the INI once excepting certain heavy operations; it doesn't expect the INI to suddenly change. So the intra-process communications would be to reduce user annoyance. -Tony McNamara- _______________________________________________ plucker-dev mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.rubberchicken.org/mailman/listinfo/plucker-dev _______________________________________________ plucker-dev mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.rubberchicken.org/mailman/listinfo/plucker-dev
