This is my first usage of aiss images, and it's almost working as expected.
I have a horizonital layout group of five Buttons. Before now they used GA_Text labels and looked normal. To add images I replaced each GA_Text tag with the following:
There was a thread on UtilityBase (I think) about how to display bitmap images that are embedded in the executable. Sadly, the site has been dead as a dodo for more than a year now.
I have a small problem(hopefully).
I've got a list in my listbrowser which the user can dele 1 entry from. But at that same time, i have another struct list which only holds filenames. That i want to delete the same entry from. This means that when the node has been deleted from the listbrowser list i need to get the node from the other struct list and use that to delete a local file and then just remove that line from the list.
Finding and removing the node from the listbrowser list is easy, the problem is the other list.
I've been trying out GAHintInfo on some program gadgets and it is very nice.
One thing I've seen is that sometimes the hint text background is yellow (as I expected), and other times it will be grey. Any idea what I might have done or not done? The background seems to stay the same color for all gadgets for any one program run.
Other question: for multiple Reaction windows, do I want to try out Intuition HELPGROUP handling or better to stick with just using WINDOW_GadgetHelp individually for each window?
I am trying to put together a program for Amiga OS4 using Reaction that I once had on my Palm PDA. It was called BeSafe and it used the RIJNDAEL encoding method to store "safe" passwords on the Palm so that only the proper password would allow access to the data.
I have set up a reaction interface with a few tabs, each holding it own custom listbrowser. Right now I am just populating the data with arrays of hard coded strings.
Here are my questions:
I tried the new ReAction coding style using the Class pointers of every GUI thingie I want to use. Doing this, I experienced a very strange thing. Its not possible to add more layouts to the root layout!
Edit: Ok, got it. "done" was initialized differently by gcc, when there was code added. Im used to compilers with a defined initializing behaviour ;) If "done" is initialized explicitely, the code works as expected.
If I use Reaction for a GUI to my program, am I by definition using hardware compositing, assuming I have a compositing supported graphics card? or do I need to do something else to get hardware compositing?
And when Mesa becomes available, will Reaction transparently support whatever added benefits offered by Mesa compared to current hardware compositing? Or will something special need to be done for a Reaction GUI to benefit from the appearance of Mesa?
Does/will mesa have any further benefits beyond current compositing for a GUI and other 2d graphics stuff?
