Hello,
I've made my own very functional application within R:Base (V8) over the
past few months, but I've been bugged by all the dead space within the
application window. I've seen that I can set up gradients and use
background images, but that doesn't really appeal to me. When I first
started using the application designer, I assumed that application
components (forms, report previews, etc.) would perhaps be contained
within the initial menu window, utilizing that dead space. Is this
possible? It could even be a full-screen application with some form of a
taskbar to manage R:Base windows. (Maybe with the ability to snap
commonly used components into place within the application window?)
I've looked at the sample application that is part of the Tutorial which
came with Turbo V-8, and it is basically similar to what I have created:
a plain-jane white box with a few menu choices at the top, and windows
that pop up external to the application. For a good example, imagine
R:Base, which has its own internal taskbar.
Does anyone have an example of a self-contained application they've
created, or perhaps a suggestion for a different direction I should aim?
Thanks,
