I need your help.. as you may know I am learning to develop programs on amiga os.. Honestly it is a bit frustating because it is not easy to find some updated example (the examples inside sdk use old reaction macros that are deprecated) and some kind of basic tutorial that teach you the basic operations and I am talking about the gui (that imho is the hardest part),.. by the way, sorry for the outburst, now the question:
I use this code to get the interface of a ClassLibrary and I have a warning during compiling time.. I'd like to know why, so I can fix it and learn how to proceed..
I am here because I need your help. I am studying AmigaOS4.1 SDK and I have read a lot about it on the AmigaOS Wikipage (Dev Section) and I read one good tutorial here about the best practice on what to do and what to do not..
Now I am able to manually open libraries, get the base library pointer, get interface and use functions inside a library. I am also able to create a window object and put inside of it a button object. So far so good (thanks to wikipage and the tutorial of OS4Coding.net).
Am I missing something or is it not possible to have a regular menu strip and use popup menus? WA_RMBTrap,TRUE, has to be used from I have gathered so far.
Is it not possible to open popup menu when in the body of the window, and open regular menu when mouse is over screen title bar?
Is the new Intuition Popup Menus still on the way to go along with the new Intuition regular menus?
I have seen some posts from people asking how to set what the 3rd and 4th mouse buttons do. I am assuming this is mouse specific via it's driver. I don't see any mention of them in the SDK.
Could anyone possibly share a piece of code for reading the system gui.prefs? I specifically need to obtain the "System requester opening position" and "Evenly sized system requester buttons" settings from the Options tab in GUI preferences. Any help greatly appreciated!
Hi,
Is somebody could give me advices about the following question ?
I don't have problem to detect a dropped icon on my window with WINDOW_AppMsgHook but I
would like to detect when a icon is dragging over my window (without to be dropped).
Is it possible ?
I tried to use a DropZone but as soon that I add a WBDZA_Hook, OS freezes when a icon is dragged in my window.
DropZone is well created but certainly that I misuse it...
When looping through windows on a screen with the code below, and searching for a non-existing windowtitle, i get a crash? No problem when the title exists (CS)
