Well, I will continue to include those things, but not put much work into them.

[MBS] OverlayMBS and 32-bit pictures on Win32?
Hi Christian, When I try to use OverlayMBS with 32-bit pictures on Win32 builds with GDI+ enabled, nothing is showing. Could you see about fixing that?

Hello, What is the preferred way, under Cocoa, to show a custom “NavigationDialog” (I mean, for example, for hiding the navigation popup menu, showing a custom controls area or otherwise having events while the list is filtered (in other words, what NavigationDialog did in your plugin))? And, if we continue to use a RB version like 2011, where Cocoa is in beta, will your plugin stop supporting this version (since you deprecate Carbon classes)? ___ Mbsplugins_monkeybreadsoftware.info mailing list mbsplugins@monkeybreadsoftware.info https://ml01.ispgateway.de/mailman/listinfo/mbsplugins_monkeybreadsoftware.info
[MBS] How to Print NSTextStorageMBS to a printer
Christian Why not simply use NSViewMBS of Textarea? Because I am trying to print a combination of graphics and text from multiple objects over multiple pages. I can’t do that within TextArea. Essentially I have a database of RTF fields, that need printing in a prescribed layout combined with graphics.

Hi, * Updated adaptor.appendPicture to work with transparency. * Marked NavigationDialogMBS, HIViewMBS, MenubarMBS, MenuMBS and StandardAlertMBS classes as deprecated. Those are only for Carbon and should be replaced when you move projects to Cocoa. * Fixed bug in CTParagraphStyleSettingMBS class. * Most deprecated things in plugin now list replacement. * Upgraded OS Version query on Mac to work better on Mac OS X 10.10 * Updated DynaPDF library to version 3.0.33.95.

Christian I tried this but it sticks where indicated: //create a new view dim v as new NSViewMBS (0,0, 400, 600) //create the graphics associated with the view dim nsg as NSGraphicsMBS = NSGraphicsMBS.graphicsContextWithNSView(v) //<< Routine stops here and returns if nsg = nil then break //<< routine doesn’t get this far. //get the text dim t as NSTextStorageMBS = textView.textStorage //put the text into the graphics nsg.drawInRect( t, new NSRectMBS(0,0, 200, 100) ) //print out dim o as NSPrintOperationMBS = NSPrintOperationMBS.printOperationWithView(v) o.showsPrintPanel = true o.runOperationModalForWindow(self) o = nil Am I missing something in creating the NSView or NSGraphics?

Re: [MBS] PictureMBS.ScaleMT on Win32 with New-Style pictures?
Hi Christian, Any update on PictureMBS with 32-bit pictures under Win32? I'm testing the latest Xojo beta with 14.2 pr10 and seeing this: dim p as new picture(256,256) dim pmbs as new PictureMBS(p,p.hasAlphaChannel) // on Cocoa, pmbs.valid = true // on Win32, pmbs.valid = false It would be great if you could get this working... any ideas? if this is a Xojo bug, has it been reported to them yet?
