If you modify/redistribute any of the Pivot source code, you'll need to retain the ASL header. > Basically, I run the org.apache.pivot.wtk.ScriptApplication class with the > parameter -src=path/to/text/text_inputs.bxml with the classpath set to the > runtime classpath (the same used to run the pure class files) and the > resource files (BXML and others) copied at the same place. > > But the ScriptApplication fails to find the BXML file. ... > With an absolute path, I get an error like: ... Try using a path on the classpath, not a file system path. For example, --src=/com/foo/bar/my_file.bxml. OTOH, you may want to simply implement the Application interface yourself rather than using ScriptApplication. For what you are trying to do, I think it might be a better approach anyways. > Oh, on an unrelated note: in the past, I had no problems to run Pivot demos > (on XP), it loaded fast and was displayed nicely. > I wanted to follow the tutorial online, and the Sample Application demo shown > the Java wait logo for quite some time (several minutes, I would say), then a > black area where the applet should be.

Try setting -Dorg.apache.pivot.wtk.disablevolatilebuffer=false when you start your app. > Mmm, tried again while writing this mail.

Spinners are not currently editable, though there is a JIRA ticket for this. Stepping through the values reloads the entire sample UI, so it can be slow. G
