@Muttonhead:

Did you consider to generate the documentation by fb-doc and Doxygen, yet?
  • Single source (documentation in source code files).
  • High quality output in different formats (html, pdf, chm, ...)
  • Auto-creation of useful information (ie. links between text, graphs and source listings, or graphs for includes and caller / callees).
And more...

Comments:
a) Last sentence from 1-th page of QuickReference ( about custom backgrouncolor ) is unclear, because it has more solutions/sences.More detailed explanation needed here, IMHO.
Having trouble with that for dynamic subwindow/widget creation.
I used non elegant solution - one unused videopage colorized as background.

b) missing important warning about using 'fullscreen' flag.
The best way for developing/debugging app with sGUI used inside is 'windowed' mode;
and only after getting perfect funcionality of sGUI controls it's recommended switching to 'fullscreen' mode.
(Due loosing control over app, if wrong relations enabled.)

- dynamic subwindow/widget creation - Fixed finally

@petan
aahhh... too many errors...
my last english lesson was in 1986
i am sad :/
Having trouble with that for dynamic subwindow/widget creation.
what is the problem?


@TJF:
powerful, i like it.
the output looks great, Doxy is a little bit tricky to config, dont get the cool graphics at moment...
my personal problem is: all looks "dot-c-ized".
but this is more a question of taste

Yes, the configuration of Doxygen is overhelming at the beginning. Most options aren't helpful for my projects and it still takes some time to test out what and how to customize. But the output is great and usable. I often use the caller / callee graphs to get some overview about the internal interactions.

Did you create / generate /use the file fb-doc.lfn?
Muttonhead wrote:my personal problem is: all looks "dot-c-ized".
It started with C++ (and is written in C++ as well) and then further programming languages were added.

BTW:
I'm using an advanced version of fb-doc that can generate FB source listings with correct syntax highlighting (including links to the text / graphs like in that page of the libpruio documentation). It's unpublished yet because the documentation isn't finished (and the command line options changed a lot to simplify operations). Perhaps you're interested in beta testing?

Here is "Demo-activation2.bas" with gold dynamic widget and 3 videopages.
Trouble of dynamic widget creation is that I don't know size of all single gadgets sooner, prior using Add.. routine,
for drawing golden square widget background.
Only after that I can use Add... routines.So missing me group of routines like 'GetGadgetSize.Add...()' with the same header as 'Add...()' routine has.
Pseudocode wil looks like

Code: Select all

...
wigetSize=(0,0)			'widget size is empty
wigetSize+=GetGadgetSize.Add...gadgetA()	'gadget size is - widget size  will be
wigetSize+=GetGadgetSize.Add...gadgetB()	'gadget size is - widget size  will be
wigetSize+=GetGadgetSize.Add...gadgetC()	'gadget size is - widget size  will be
wigetSize+=GetGadgetSize.Add...gadgetD()	'gadget size is - widget size  will be
'widget size known
get ...					'store screen background
line ...,cGold,BF			'draw widget golden background
Add...gadgetA()		'create all gadgets
Add...gadgetB()
Add...gadgetC()
Add...gadgetD()
GadgetOn(A,D)
...
GadgetOff(A,D)
put ...				'restore screen background
edit:
- dynamic widgets building OK now

I do not know if I am good as a beta tester ... I'm not very deep into the matter.
And, the most important thing: my wife complains already: I sit too long in front of the screen :D

founded next tuning ;)

I am not alone I think, who hate writing on white background.This is done by default in routines
'AddMultiLineEditBox'+'AddComboBox'+'AddListBox' and 'AddStringGadget' by using line 'ClearBox...,white' in related gadget files.
So, solution was easy - added global variable 'GadgetTextBackgroundColor' and changed line 'ClearBox...,GadgetTextBackgroundColor' in all touched files related to mentioned gadgets
("ComboBox_Basis.bas","ListBox_Basis.bas","MultiLineEditBox_Basis.bas","sGUI.bas","sGUI_Drawing.bas")
- GadgetTextBackgroundColor =&HFFC880 'added into 'InitGFX' routine in "sGUI.bas"
- dim shared as uinteger GadgetTextBackgroundColor 'added into "sGUI_Drawing.bas"
Usage:
Changing this variable somewhere prior calling 'GadgetOn(...)' leads to new text background color in ALL text gadgets activated.

Usable for both static&dynamic gadget's usage style.
(Top solution is unique Color style for every text gadget, but this is not 'Question of the Day' for me, actually.
sGUI(tuned) become to stay very interesting, putting it into my another app).
Screenshot placed on previous page #2 bottom - background color is like a dust sand

@ Muttonhead

YESS ! That's it !
Exactly done, Muttonhead; THANK YOU !!

Code example:

Code: Select all

#include "sGUI\sGUI.bas"
#include once "sGUI\SimpleGadget.bas"
using sGUI
screen 17,32
InitGFX
 bload "BMPs\stives.bmp",0

dim as EventHandle ptr event=new EventHandle
dim as integer x,y,w,h
dim as integer y2,y1,x2,x1,gX,gY,ramikX,ramikY,widzetW,widzetH
dim as Gadget ptr button1,button2
button1= AddSimpleGadget(event,100,250,200,20,"upper left")
button2= AddSimpleGadget(event,430,330,200,20,"bottom right")

ramikX=20	'frame
ramikY=10
CalcMinBBox (event,x,y,w,h)
x1=x-ramikX
y1=y-ramikY
x2=x+ramikX+w
y2=y+ramikY+h

'? "x1,x2  y1,y2";x1,x2,y1,y2
widzetW=x2-x1+1		'widget size (for image saving)
widzetH=y2-y1+1

line (x1,y1)-(x2,y2),&HFF8800,BF     'widget drawn
SetNewBackGround (event)
GadgetOn(button1,button2)

do
  event->xSleep(1)
  if KEY<>"" then event->EXITEVENT=1
loop until event->EXITEVENT
? "is out.."
delete event
sleep
end

Setting/changing numerical values, or interval ??

Hmm, what is core routine for displaying/setting numerical value (or interval) ?
After trying I solved/enabled this with 'AddStringGadget' - see snippet (incr/decr with step 0.1)
Is that one and only possible way ? (conversion any numerical type to string after INCR/DECRementing) + displaying new string ?

Code: Select all

'changes/adds in "Demo_ActivationTest2.bas"
'...
dim as single kolik		'=1
dim as string someText="3",someText2=""
'...
dim as Gadget ptr bmpplus,bmpminus,label,label2,label3,label4,bmpPMvalue
'...
bmpPMvalue=AddStringGadget(event,80,330,10,someText)
bmpPMvalue->caption=someText

'...
      case bmpplus
		bmpPMvalue->caption=str(val(bmpPMvalue->caption)+0.1)
		kolik=val(bmpPMvalue->caption)
		bmpPMvalue->caption=str(kolik)
		SetString (bmpPMvalue,bmpPMvalue->caption)	  
		UpdateGadget(bmpPMvalue)	  
'		kolik=val(bmpPMvalue->caption)
		 locate 21,40:? using "###.#";kolik

'additional job - changing text contents in 'stringer' gadget	 		
		someText2="second"
		SetString (stringer,someText2)	  
		UpdateGadget(stringer)	  
	  case bmpminus
		bmpPMvalue->caption=str(val(bmpPMvalue->caption)-0.1)
		kolik=val(bmpPMvalue->caption)
		bmpPMvalue->caption=str(kolik)		
		SetString (bmpPMvalue,bmpPMvalue->caption)	  
		UpdateGadget(bmpPMvalue)	  
'		kolik=val(bmpPMvalue->caption)
		 locate 21,40:? using "###.#";kolik

'additional job - changing text contents in 'stringer' gadget
		someText2="third"
		SetString (stringer,someText2)	  		
		UpdateGadget(stringer)	  		
    end select
  end if
loop until event->EXITEVENT

Its SetString(). No update needed.
But a Stringgadget use a TextObject to handle the String.(in the first row of a TO)
So you can use TO_routines. if you modifiy the string via this way you need an update

Short: YES you have to convert every number. A StringGadget can handle a string only

After long tryings+searching in files to get working countdown/up by pressed and holded mouse button I found this:

a) missing in "QuickReference..pdf"
- detailed 'xSleep' parameter explanation + examples
What exactly does xSleep(1),xSleep(0),xSleep(-1) and its double parameter specification, e.g.(-1,0)??
On page 2 founded written only

Code: Select all

event->xSleep(1)   'methode of EventHandle, program waits here for an event, (this behavior is optional)
- detailed 'GadgetControl' explanation + examples

b) for correctly working continual countdown/up of numerical value is needed this code "Demo_ActivationTest2.bas"

Code: Select all

'...	
do
  event->xSleep(0)	'CHANGE !!!
'...	
'...	
  if event->GADGETMESSAGE then
    select case event->GADGETMESSAGE  
'...	
'...	
    end select
  end if  
	if bmpminus->over and LMB=HOLD then  
  		bmpPMvalue->caption=str(val(bmpPMvalue->caption)-0.1)
		kolik=val(bmpPMvalue->caption)	'fix rounding issue
		bmpPMvalue->caption=str(kolik)	'fix rounding issue		
		SetString (bmpPMvalue,bmpPMvalue->caption)	  
		UpdateGadget(bmpPMvalue)	  
		 locate 21,40:? using "###.#";kolik
	end if		 
	if bmpplus->over and LMB=HOLD then  
		bmpPMvalue->caption=str(val(bmpPMvalue->caption)+0.1)
		kolik=val(bmpPMvalue->caption)	'fix rounding issue
		bmpPMvalue->caption=str(kolik)	'fix rounding issue
		SetString (bmpPMvalue,bmpPMvalue->caption)	  
		UpdateGadget(bmpPMvalue)	  
		 locate 21,40:? using "###.#";kolik
	end if
loop until event->EXITEVENT
This is temporary solution yet, I think better would be to write new routines for setting numeric values/intervals
such as e.g. 'AddSetNumeroValueGadget()', 'AddSetNumeroIntervalGadget()'

If you want action while holding a button then take a look in the Code of an arrowbutton( see in "action routine"). SimpleGadgets and BMPGadgets dont trigger, but its possible to change this behavior. Modify their "action routine".
