RE: OK... I know what the problem was
i have reported the same kind of problems using metaframe (8bit color) when transfering the stacks developped with my NT4 workstation (24 bit color). My problem was the shading of the fields would go away. The only solution was to change the field's style from Scrolling to Rect and back to Scrolling and then it would be OK... so developping first for a lower grade pc is the best way to go in these cases... not normal but we have to deal with it... Im 100% sure that Macs shouldn't be affected with this, it seems more like a windows feature - like the 16 color lousy icons. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Monte Goulding Sent: Sunday, December 10, 2000 6:15 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: OK... I know what the problem was Whew... he says as he wipes the sweat from his brow ;-\ The problem was that I had developed the program in true 16 bit or 32 bit color and the laptop was set to 256 colors. Has anyone got a workaround for this problem or do you just specify that the program needs 16 bit color? Why where images visible but button icons not? Seems a bit strange to me.

I wish I had the skill that so many of you show in your knowledge and programing. There are a few example stacks scattered here and there on the net for which we should be very grateful to the authors. I would like to offer a site where all MC related internet conectivity stacks can be centralized for downloading by neophytes like myself. Anyone with anything they are willing to offer the community at large can place them there for free access. Is this redundant? Unneccessary? If folks are interested I'd be happy to set it up and post the links around. Let me know. Peter We host such a site: just email in a stack and we'll post it. We will shortly be upgrading our facilities to offer ftp upload and download (thats not quite there yet). So I think adding another site would be redundant. Or is there something our site doesn't / won't do that you are looking for? Perhaps we could add that?
