While I was connected to send e-mail, I downloaded the latest CVS.
(took about 20 min. I live out in the boonies, and barely have phone
service, so my connection is pretty slow.)

I'll re-post my diffs (tomorrow) against the 'latest' CVS.

That's exactly what I did. (See below) "When the link is tapped, it
shows the table the same way we do large images."

I medeled the code after the large image stuff, so, it a large image
uses your whole screen, tables will too.

CVS, but, my copy may be a week or two old.

Interesting, nonetheless. I take it there is no horizontal scrollbar :)
How do people see the data on the side?

I suppose one way to do this may be a 'pendown and drag' style. That
might work. Ofcourse, that might be difficult :)

As long as you didn't hardcode any values anywhere and used the
proper functions, that should be sufficient. 

Question though, to apply this patch, did you base it off of the CVS
code in unstable, or the 1.2 branch?

Opps!

I exceeded the 40k limit for messages. So here's one screenshot from
my IIIx. I may be the only person on the web without a homepage, so, I
have nowhere to post them.

It won't (so far) work any different on a hires device. It needs to be
smart enough to inline tables if it can. It just adds a link to the table
in the page. When the link is tapped, it shows the table the same way we
do large images. It displays MaxExtentX() x MaxExtentY() scrollable.

I'm curious to try this out on some hires devices. Do you have any
screenshots on this actually working?

I'll definatly have a look at this and try it out. Won't have a chance
to until next week though.

Tables!!!

2002-11-28 Thread Chris Hawks
Guys,

From the suggestions (and prodding ) by Blake .et .al, here's the
first working (!!) version of table support in Plucker.

It does (a lot) of the parsing on the palm, but, it's not t slow.
It takes a few seconds to render each of the tables from:
"http://printer.wunderground.com/cgi-bin/findweather/getForecast?queryF552";
so it doesn't seen too bad.

It supports font-size, cell-alignment, colspan, images, and borders.
Still to come are border and font color, but, I can't really test them as
well as rowspan.

Attached are the table.[ch] files and diffs for the hooks and parser
files. Comments, testing, and suggestions welcome...

JPluck beta 3 prerelease 2

2002-11-28 Thread Laurens M. Fridael
Hi,


I just released JPluck beta 3 PR2. It includes a number of fixes and
additions from PR1. The source is available in the Developer
package.

Download it here:
http://jpluck.sourceforge.net/download.html

Change list
http://jpluck.sourceforge.net/changes.html

For those who don't know yet: JPluck is a Java-based toolkit for creating
Plucker documents. It includes the JPluck X GUI for managing and downloading
documents. JPluck requires Java 1.4 or higher.

I must say that it runs really well on my Linux installation with JDK 1.4.1.
I now had the chance to sit down and test it for a while under Redhat 8.0
and I can say that Linux is now a viable platform for Java Swing
applications. (Pre-JDK 1.4 performance was too slow to be really usable.)

Let me know what you think.


Thanks
-Laurens

I posted this message two days ago. It didn't get through to the list and I
got this reply instead:

"Your mail to 'plucker-dev' with the subject

Re: JPluck beta 3 prerelease

The reason it is being held:

Post by non-member to a members-only list

Either the message will get posted to the list, or you will receive

Error in the listserver?
