Re: Rev 3.0 crashing on OS X too (as well as Vista and Linux)
I started up 2.8.1 on OS X (the last version that wasn't crashing regularly). My general habit is to do a totally new install for each release (rather than relying on Rev's update feature), in order to have completely separate environments. It's a bit confusing now because of the way Rev is using shared locations for things (e.g. like plugins, preferences), because the 2.8.1 environment hasn't been used in about 6 months, yet it has just started up with the latest current beta of GLX2 (installed in 3.0, not in 2.8.1). Luckily, I run revNavigator from the old bunkered plugins folders. So I am at least able to confirm that I was not running the 3.0 beta of revNavigator, because 2.8.1's plugins folder contains the 2.5 version of revNavigator. However, I can see that I've done some customization of that old version of revNavigator so I must have used it a little back then. I'm still going to run without it for a week to see what happens. And I'll run without GLX2 also (I've always been very conservative about plugins, and didn't run any until earlier this year). Anyway, if that doesn't turn out to be the cause of the instability I'm stuffed. Bernard On Wed, Oct 15, 2008 at 1:19 AM, J.

Re: Gradient GUI tool?
I'm not quite sure what you mean. One of the new simple projects I was working on had a gradient graphic in it. Inside the colored rectangle was a right angle of 'points'. These points could be picked up and moved about, and as I did so the qualities of the gradient changed before my eyes. I have to assume you are referring to something other than that.

Re-4: persistent objects in runrev (howto)
Hello Richard, Thank you for your comments! You wrote: If you're copying objects, you may find it both more secure and more convenient to maintain to have as few handlers as possible in those objects, which merely call handlers in a central library or your app's mainstack to do the real work, I did this as you suggests, but since 2 weeks I do it in a more extremistic way: I (almost) do NOT HAVE ANY script in such objects I want to copy from stack to tempstack and back. I use the event hierarchy for solving this. In the stackscript (or cardscript if appropriate), which gets any event from such objects with empty scripts, I have sth like: on mouseDown if the short name of the owner of the target = content then -- there is only one group content grab me select the target -- etc. else ... end if This has the result that you can move around only the selected object within the group content, copy the group content from the stack to the tempstack and back - without disturbing the other objects in the card. And it allows easily changing the handlers in later versions using the same group content edited by previous versions. Since a) I embed the important (password protected and some not protected) stacks into the standalone and b) as Chipp pointed out the standalone binary cannot be decompiled as easy as in 2.2.1 and c) I can load my own encrypted stacks by decrypt stackbinary; go stack stackbinary and d) I even can use the passkey syntax for opening extern protected stacks from a .rev file by a routine in the standalone which knows the passkey for these external stacks I can live with the password mechanisms of runrev.

I agree about the independent column alignment. You would always have to justify a whole column instead of 1 item. And every time you resized the column it would need to justify it the column again which would lead to big problems. But it could be used in special cases where the programmer does not want the user to be allowed to resize coiumns or the rows are limited. Another quick solution might be justify only what is visible on screen and a little bit past or just use a paging system instead of scrolling. But some of the other options would work real good for a lot of people and the whole concept of making each item become as many different buttons as you want will work too. These things could open the doors to fields in new ways. It needs to all be done by the Rev team with preferences that can be turned on and off like other field preferences but it shows what Rev needs for the next Revolution in programming and many parts can be worked in pretty easy. -=JB=- ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution

Thanks to all who patiently answered my question as though it was from a sane person. Very gracious of you. :) Sure enough, once I re-read the docs to learn that gradients are only available for graphic objects, I was able to find Rev's Gradient tool easily. It's a nice one. This raises a question, though: Why are gradients limited to graphics? I can think of a million places I'd like to use subtle gradients as the background fill for buttons and even a few fields. All objects in Rev share the same appearance properties: backgroundPattern, backgroundColor, etc. Except now, with gradients. So now we have another sometimes rule, one more exception for newcomers to learn. And we have no gradients for buttons and fields.

I'd like to make some of them more opaque. It shouldn't be hard to create a simple tool which creates a gradient and applies it as the bgPattern of a field or other object-- of course it wouldn't scale correctly with the object, but it's a start.

Buttons, of course, almost always have a subtle gradient these days (Aqua, Glass, Gnome, et al). Until we get the sort of consistency I'm asking for, it's not hard to just keep doing what we've always done - making images and using the backgroundPattern. devolution's had gradient-making tool for years for that reason, though it's not as nice as Rossi's. :) But it does mean that if you decide to change the size of your buttons, you need to go back to whatever editor you used to also revise the images.

I understand about 'rules,' but it's a plain fact different objects have different properties, not only in Rev but also most all other OOP environments. Of course a button isn't a field, but there's an orthogonality in the rest of the color/pattern properties that not only aids learnability but general usefulness as well. True, it's rare that a field would need a gradient, but if you think of a field as a text display are I think you'll find many examples where subtle gradients are used. Buttons, of course, almost always have a subtle gradient these days (Aqua, Glass, Gnome, et al). Until we get the sort of consistency I'm asking for, it's not hard to just keep doing what we've always done - making images and using the backgroundPattern. devolution's had gradient-making tool for years for that reason, though it's not as nice as Rossi's. :) But it does mean that if you decide to change the size of your buttons, you need to go back to whatever editor you used to also revise the images. Not a deal-breaker, but a handy nice-to-have if we could avoid those extra steps. I'd rather have separate blendlevels for controls outside the stack blendlevel-- as it stands now, if you create a stack which is partially transparent, all the controls on it are also partially transparent.

It may seem this should be limited to buttons but when it comes to Rev taking a stand and creating a new Revolution of programming by providing a flexible dynamic table control Richard is right on the money about adding this option sometime. Imagine if you have a table field and you are using numerous button like scripts for each item. It would be nice to have the option to make each cell have the ability to change its appearance for each button like script that is selected. So if you were doing a data base you could have the buttons change when you have the sort option selected and if you selected the search the cells would change for the appearance you set. Little visual effects like that can make the user experience more enjoyable and it would be one more thing that makes your program stand out from the competition.

You should hear a beep every time you leave or come back to Rev. - make a new stack, either a mainStack or a subStack. - test again, no beeps :-( BUT, if you then switch to the browse tool, toggle tools ending on browse, then the beeps start again.

I do not have a PC here (must get to the other dang island where I have one) to test. But if IE works then I'm most of the way there as the company only has Windows poker games at this time. But I'll need it for OS X soon. Thanks again, sims Jim Sims wrote: I'd like to use revbrowser to access a web based chat.
