menus: menu item numbers?
Is it possible to work with menu items by item number, instead of by name (label)? I would need it - to set the currently selected item (set the menuItem of btn optionmenu to 3) - to find the currently selected item (put the menuItem of btn optionmenu into V) instead of the scripted workarounds: - setting the label myself (set the label of btn optionmenu to line 3 of btn optionmenu) and on menupick pItem - finding the item number myself (put lineoffset(pItem,text of btn optionmenu) into V) Peter ___ use-revolution mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution

Re: report printing advice
I must print the group with headers and footers on each page. It's probably going to be several pages. It seems like the best way to go would be to lock the screen and copy each field onto a blank card, and then use print card [from topleft to rightbottom] [into pageRect] and print break commands to lay out the pages one chunk at a time. Print the headers and footers in a similar manner. This is going to be a problem because I have fields that are side by side columns, that are going to cross page boundaries. Any suggestions? Hi Alex, The only thought that comes to mind is to consolidate the report text into a single field and use the revPrintText command. It gives you headers, footers, and pagination. -- Rob Cozens CCW, Serendipity Software Company http://www.oenolog.com/who.htm And I, which was two fooles, do so grow three; Who are a little wise, the best fooles bee. from The Triple Foole by John Donne (1572-1631) ___ use-revolution mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution

Re: Another 2.0 Question
Monte Goulding writes: Just a stab in the dark but I'd say they are waiting for the engine to be complete. Raney's on Beta 1 so they probably have a few more weeks yet. So how did they think that it was going to ship in November. Well I'd say that the expected date for the engine was about then but a 2 month discussion about the Drag and Drop API on the xTalks list slowed everything down. But it could have been anything. With 2.0 the RunRev team is attempting to close the gap between MC builds and Rev builds. That means there is two development timelines that need to converge. Two lots of testing. A hell of a lot of work to deliver a stable product. If we see it before Jan then it will be a miracle! It will be a great product and well worth the wait.

re: Groups
selectGroupedControls - well, I look at it and see select the entire group. If they wanted it to mean select individual controls within the group it might have been better named selectIndivCntrlInGroup although I can see that the number of letters in the property (and the number of times I cause anyone else to respond to this diatribe) can get out of hand. (*grin*) The important thing is that I am clear on it now. However, it's interesting that selecting the individual controls that have been grouped once permits you to group them yet again. This gives them an additional script (under the new group ID). I don't see a use for this but I'm sure someone will tell me. (*yet another grin*) Seriously: I really do appreciate all the help I've received from the listas. Problems have been resolved and I've been able to get work out the door. So thank you - all of you.

Re: Printing parameters
printPaperSize should give you the info you want, but in Rev 1.1.1 I have found that it sometimes forgets that it is in landscape mode and reports the paper size as if it had been set back to portrait (although the resulting printout is landscape).

You'll probably need to use the binaryDecode function to convert the bits and bytes in the header to a form you can use. It's not hard to do, but can be tedious and you really need to know your way around a binary file editor/viewer so that you can check your script to make sure it's dealing with the right data as it parses through the header.
