RE: Inverse-colored custom cursor shows up...
Valetia, The best way (albeit a bit awkward) is to use Rev's own image editing tools on a 16x16 image. The reason is that cursors need to be 3 colors (black, white and the transparent color) and this is a real problem for most editing programs (they like to do B/W or 4 color, but 3 color with transparency is difficult). I've been able to create cursors outside of Rev, but they show up properly in OS 9, Windows and OS 10.1.5, but show up inverted in 10.2 or later. I'm in discussions with Scott Raney to see if there's some way to get a recipe for doing this outside of the MC/Rev environment, but so far the best suggestion is to do it in Rev. Don't forget that if you Command-click (control-click in Windows) with the pencil tool, you get a magnify window that you can do pixel editing in. When I have a definitive answer, I'll post it to my site as a Tip and let the list know.

I thought there was a suggestion posted a while back that mentioned the option of creating the image in an image editor, importing it into Rev/MC, and then clicking the image with the paint tool? Supposedly this action forces the image to be Rev/MC compliant and then will work properly.

Can I call a function that is in a different script?
Suppose I have a function defined in some field's script. Can I call it from a handler in another field's script? (I tried finding this in the docs, but no luck. Function doesn't seem to appear in the development guide, at least for as far as I could discern. I couldn't figure out how to search through the development guide.) -- Victor Eijkhout [EMAIL PROTECTED] tel: 865 974 9308 (W), 865 673 6998 (H), 865 974 8296 (F) http://www.cs.utk.edu/~eijkhout/ ___ use-revolution mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution

List View GUI
Is there a preexisting way in Rev to build a list view GUI, with repeating control widgets within a scrollable body? I'm planning on converting some FileMaker databases to mySQL with Rev 1.1.1 as the client front end, and I haven't throught of a graceful way to implement the list views that FileMaker users take for granted. Here are the only ideas I've come up with so far: * a simple text list in a scrolling field with hyperlinked text instead of buttons -- this works but looks primitive. * a group of controls that repeat vertically down the window, with text values populating the fields as the user scrolls. This also looks rather primitive, but to create an effect in which the controls within the list sections actually scrolled visually up and down the screen would be a fairly time-consuming programming project. Rev 2.0 will reputedly have a spreadsheet-like text fields and/or tables, but this doesn't sound like it will include the ability to embed GUI controls (such as buttons) within a scrolling table. Am I wrong about this? Any ideas on this will be appreciated...thanks. ___ use-revolution mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
Goofy button behavior
Howdy, I have a button which is not part of a group, and never was. It shows its own selection handles, not group selection handles, with Select Grouped Controls off, the same as other buttons which are not grouped. If I select buttons which are grouped in that case, it shows the group's selection handles. All OK so far? OK, now watch this (here's the problem): It is executing the script of a group. In fact it is mixing the script of a group to which it does not belong (in fact, it is not grouped at all) with its own script. What's going on and how do I fix it.

Re: Inverse-colored custom cursor shows up...
Scott: Just gave this a try (clicking using a paint tool) and it did indeed begin working properly afterwards. Erik: It appears to actually change the pixel values inside the image. What I did was use the bucket tool and clicked on an existing black pixel in the imported image. Nothing about the image changed visually when I did that (and that would indeed be the expected outcome of such an action), but it fixed the cursor.
