Thanks Sarah,
(sorry for the lost "h" in the last post;))
turn off 3D does not help, because its should be like it is because 
that works fine in WIN and OS9.
I saw this in a MC 2,5 build too.
So.., it seems a bug in the engine...
Can I do anything in this case..?

I had this problem, too, and discovered that the icon library must be
checked before building the distribution.  (I'm still on RR1.1.1 and OS
9.2).  Might that be the problem?

Hi list, RR team
There is still in the 2.0.1 my good old borderColor fellow...
We (I think Sara to..) have described it some times ago. But I will do 
it again..
Yes, I have mentioned this before.

open stack
make textfield
all 4 border are grey
the top border has a shadow (double line)
tool palette
change to colors and patterns
select the textfield
click on btn borderColor
(here rev crashes if you try to drag the color from the OSX Color 
palette to the btn borderColor
hanging until you close the OSX palette, but thats another thing..)
select a color lets say green, click ok
Than: the border looks like double colored grey and yellow (border 
with 2)
change that to border with 1 and the green color is gone...
But the line on the top looks only grey, because its double or shadowed
if you set the border with > than 2 than it becomes green to...

Once I got an effect where all 3 lines changed to the color green only 
(no grey shadow)
only the one on the top was grey
But I cant reproduce that...
You can change most of the borders if you set the shadow color, but as 
you say, the extra thickness at the top stays grey no matter what you 
do. The only other option is to turn off 3D. Then the borders show the 
border color, not the shadow color, but still with a weird grey line at 
the top.

My major problem was with the focus color being dark grey but now it is 
the standard OS X aqua, which is fine by me although I would have 
thought that setting the focus color in Revolution should have 
over-ridden this.

Sarah

Hi Paul,

In OSX the background should have a subtle stripe, but it is plain 
white even though the tab panel has the stripe. I tried adding a 
stripe from the standard icons to the background, but in the built 
application it is still blank. If I add the stripe to the foreground 
then everything turns an ugly gray.
The stripe only appears if your stacks are set to a mode other than 
topLevel i.e. modal, modeless or palette. The way I got round this was 
by setting the mode to one with stripes and snapshotting a small 
square. When I want stripes, I now import that image into my stack and 
set the backgroundpattern to it.

In addition to that, I cannot seem to add an icon to finished 
application during the build process. When I select an image file, the 
compiled application shows a generic application icon for OSX and if I 
do not select an image file I get the revolution icon.
I haven't managed this either, but IconComposer that comes with the 
developer Tools has been recommended.

Also, my project is 100k, but the application is 3MB, is this normal.
This is normal. The standalone includes the complete Revolution engine 
plus any library stacks you may have chosen to include: printing, 
internet, geometry, cursors, icons etc.

Cheers,
Sarah

The striped background won't appear on a stack that is set to topLevel. 
It has to be modeless, modal, or palette (and the background pattern must 
be set to empty).

I have the same experience, but I just take my icon file (which has the 
icon as *its* icon), open it in Get Info, select the icon, choose Copy 
from the Edit menu, open my rev app, select it's icon, and choose paste. 
This sets the application icon to my icon.

>Also, my project is 100k, but the application is 3MB, is this normal.

I think the runtime engine is about 2.4 megs. Do you have extra items 
included that you don't need in your app (printing, internet, icons, 
dialog boxes, etc.)?

I am just trying to build my first app and was wondering whether I was 
doing something wrong.

In OSX the background should have a subtle stripe, but it is plain 
white even though the tab panel has the stripe. I tried adding a stripe 
from the standard icons to the background, but in the built application 
it is still blank. If I add the stripe to the foreground then

do not select an image file I get the revolution icon.

What am I doing wrong?

Also, my project is 100k, but the application is 3MB, is this normal.

Ive noticed that with a standalone under OSX, the border colors are
completely transparent, so that the underlying card shows through. Thus
there is a 1-pixel black border, and anything else (i.e. border 
width=5),
which should be a border color, is transparent.

It has made my help screens for my current application look very bad.

Textfield BorderColor bug..?

2003-06-10 Thread Wolfgang M. Bereuter
Hi list, RR team

it again...
FOA this happens only on OSX. There is no such an effect on WIN.X or 
OS9. (I did not check it on Linux)
It happens even if you open a 1.1.1 stack with text fields or a new 
stack and make a new textfield

open stack
make textfield
all 4 border are grey
the top border has a shadow (double line)
open tool palette
basic properties
checked: visible, share text, opaque, focusable, focus border, show 
border, auto hilite, fixed line height
(no matter what you change the problem remains)

tool palette
change to colors and patterns
select the textfield
click on btn borderColor
(here rev crashes if you try to drag the color from the OSX Color 
palette to the btn borderColor
hanging until you close the OSX palette, but thats another thing..)
select a color lets say green, click ok
Than: the border looks like double colored grey and yellow (border with 
2)
change that to border with 1 and the green color is gone...
But the line on the top looks only grey, because its double or shadowed
if you set the border with > than 2 than it becomes green to...

Once I got an effect where all 3 lines changed to the color green only 
(no grey shadow)
only the one on the top was grey
But I cant reproduce that...

RR Team,
I m waiting so long now for the fix of this bug.
Pls have a look at this. Its not only very ugly, the borderColor is 
really important...

If anybody on the list has any idea what this can be (a bug in the 
engine, or...?)
any info is welcome...
Thanks in advance...
