Feed Description: Pollock - the next VW GUI
I've been a bit heads down these last few days. During that time, I have finished and published a new version of Pollock to the public repository: Version 5.24
From this point forward, we'll need to use this new version of Pollock for our How To series. This is because I have changed some things, and added others. First, I have fixed our Scrollbar problems where it wasn't re-painting properly. Also, I fixed the problem that Vassili's parallel project found where the text was all bold. Finally, I fixed the problem that kept me from adding a horizontal scrollbar to the TextEdit, where it wasn't updating when the text size changed.
Changes include the renaming of the #advanced window opening type to #custom. Also, the #selectionListChanged and #selectionListChanging events have been renamed to the more succinct #listChanged and #listChanging, respectively. Finally, the primary FractionalFrame creator has been changed from #fractionTop:right:bottom:left: to #fractonLeft:top:right:bottom:.
What's new is the TabControl is now fully finished for all looks. Also, there are some other things that we'll get to later in this series. These things, related to Forms, we'll just pretend the features were there from the start as we move along.
Of course, all of these changes break both my and Vassili's work. So, I've taken the liberty of publishing a new version of each that works with the new version of Pollock. From now on, we'll be working with 5.24 of Pollock and the new examples. While I was at it, I added the horizontal scrollbar to the TextEdit, which I wanted to do last time.
Both are published on the Cincom public repository as versions 1.13
