RE: Widget questions

[Timothy Penner via 4D_Tech]

Hi Piotr,

> I meant : When the mouse is over the 3D buttons the scrollbar doesn't respond 
> when using the SCROLL WHEEL

Although I don't recall trying with a 3D Button, I am aware of the following 
bug that I filed for a v16 case:

ACI0096405  [135202] Scrolling a subform stops when the mouse is above an 
enterable object

Basically, if you had a scrollable subform, and you scrolled it using the mouse 
wheel, it would stop scrolling when the mouse gets positioned above an 
enterable object. This behavior was seen in both v15.x and v16.x plus v13.6 and 
v14.6 (I didn't test v12 or older versions) so the behavior has existed for at 
least 4 major versions (13-16).

The bug is listed as in progress.

Hope this helps!

-Tim

Hi David,

Thanks for the additional thoughts.

NO! I plan to keep it as smart as you have made it and see how that works. I 
not interested in optimizing for speed unless it’s demonstrably slower - which 
it doesn’t appear to be.

Simple is better now!

Appreciate, as always,
John…

Sorry,

Widget questions

[Piotr Chabot Stadhouders via 4D_Tech]

Hi Miyako,

Since I discovered you are a widget expert (in fact I believe you are an expert 
on everything concerning 4D) I hope you can answer some other questions 

I am developing another widget based on a subform with a vertical scrollbar 
(i.e. a calendar with 12 vertical months). On this subform I have 3D checkboxes
- When the mouse is over the 3D buttons the scrollbar doesn't respond when 
using the scrollbar. Do you have an answer / solution?
- When selecting a date by programming, 5 october for example, I want to scroll 
down to that date, but I can't find how I can scroll on a input subform by 
programing. Do you know how this can be done?

Do you know of problems when using widgets on pages > 1? Or should there be no 
problems?

Gr,

Piotr

Re: 4dmethod.com - Publish/Subscribe Component for 4D, David Adams

[Brent Raymond via 4D_Tech]

OK.  The demo video and code are up :)
https://4dmethod.com/2017/09/01/worker-job-monitor/

Let me know if anything is unclear.  It is a very low brow approach, but it
is better than nothing!

Re: TEXT TO DOCUMENT With Special Characters

[Cannon Smith via 4D_Tech]

I just tried receiving it as an object, but that didn’t work either.

It’s okay, I have a workaround created now. Thanks.

Re: Widget performance

[Keisuke Miyako via 4D_Tech]

Hello,

that widget is one of my own favourites,
especially how it manages focus with gaussian blur.

you might want to make sure your images are Retina ready on v14 or above,
but otherwise not much has changes since v13 (which added OBJECT GET SUBFORM 
CONTAINER SIZE and FORM GOTO PAGE *)
