Hi, I''m teaching myself to use wxRuby and DialogBlocks to create a front end for a Ruby program I wrote. And I''m hopelessly stuck! In DialogBlocks (or indeed wxFormBuilder, which gives me the same problem) I can create a widget, give that widget a new id and class name (in the example I created below, text_box1 and CaseChangeTextCtrl1, respectively), and then add a module which

Hello, I''m trying to use a wxMenuBar from XRC built with DialogBlocks on Windows. My first example had the menu being called from the Frame because I couldn''t figure out how to call the menu from my XRC. Shortcuts worked nicely. Example 1: menu.append(Wx::ID_EXIT, "E&xit\tAlt-X", "Quit this program") tool.append(Wx::ID_PHOTO, "&MS Picture

Coinciding with the wxRuby 1.9.2 release, we''ve got a new version of wxSugar to go with it: http://rubyforge.org/frs/?group_id=35 or gem install wx_sugar == WHAT''S NEW == The main exciting new feature in this release is a new tool called "xrcise" to make working with visual GUI designers such as DialogBlocks *much* easier. This tool generates all the code you

I have created a very simple DialogBlocks project that consists of a very simple wxWizard. I have exported the project to XRC and am trying to get XRCise to process it. XRCise produces the message "Cannot create wrapper for subclass of wxWizard". Is this a symptom of the XPath parsing in Ruby 1.8.6 bug? Or am I doing something wrong? My env: ruby 1.8.6 (2007-03-13 patchlevel 0)

Hi all We''ve been a bit quiet for a few weeks, being busy with other things, but now looking at getting some new releases out again. We have lots of nice stuff to get out there: For 1.9.3, we''re looking to target early January. Aside from trying to get a few more bugfixes in, most of the code is now there. As usual, any time you''re able to spend testing SVN trunk

I currently use DialogBlocks to generate my dialogs for wxWidgets apps I write in C++. DialogBlocks has the ability to generate XRC resources which I would like to use with wxRuby, is this possible? I am very new to Ruby and it looks like a great language and with wxRuby it looks like a great solution for quick in house applications. Thanks Sean Long

I''m fairly new to the Ruby world, particularly WxRuby, so please forgive me if this is ground that''s been covered in the past. I''m trying to load a frame from an XRC file (created using DialogBlocks), and I''m having trouble getting an instance of the Gauge object using the Wx::Window.find_window_by_xxx methods. I''m trying this on Windows XP,

I built a Windows GUI using DialogBlocks v4.29, saved the resulting XRC for processing with wxRuby''s xrciser tool. Following Ruby products installed: wxRuby is v 2.0.0 wxSugar is v0.1.22 Ruby is v1.9.1 Rubygems is v1.3.1 Running xrciser on the file gives the following: C:\ruby>xrcise -o toolgui.rb tool.xrc

Ok guys, its official -- wxWindows will become wxWidgets (see below).

Ok, so I''m new to Ruby and wxRuby. I come from a Basic background (RealBasic). Can somebody suggest a decent IDE that is used for wxRuby. Something where I can paste in code examples and then run them immediately. (I''m a Windows Vista user) Any suggestions welcome. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi ! well i''m looking for a wxwidgets programming gui ( such as gtk/glade qt-designer ), which can output ruby code, i found wxglade, and wxdesigner, but both can''t output ruby files ... do you one ? ( which runs on linux ) thanks _______________________________________________ wxruby-users mailing list wxruby-users@rubyforge.org

You had me looking in TreeCtrl at first with the previous subject line :) I too got an error and do not see an obvious reason, Kevin or Roy may have a better idea as they are better with SWIG than I am. You may want to put some printf''s in the generated TextCtrl.cpp file within the SetDefaultStyle method and find where it is crashing. The error in Mac OS X is: test.rb:15:in

Well I''ve made a lot of progress on my app, but I''m stuck on figuring out how to add a bitmap. I have a notebook and a page panel. On this panel I want to put a backdrop image and scale it to the size of the panel. How do I do this? I looked at some of the samples related to bitmaps and I could not see how to apply that to my situation. Thanks, T.

I''ve been trying to figure out the best method for generating GUI''s with Ruby. I ended up using DialogBlock because it seems like the fastest way. But not I have to work backwards and have not done this before. How do I go from the file I generate in DialogBlock to a code in Ruby? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Thank you all for your help with my previous question. Now I have a question on setting the background color of a menu bar: can it be done? I''ve experimented thus: menuBar = Wx::MenuBar.new() menuBar.set_background_color( Wx::WHITE ) But alas, it seems to have no effect. (I''m using wxruby-1.9.0-i386-mswin32 with ruby 1.8.6) Thanks much!

Perhaps a bit off-topic (I asked on the rescue list -- http://web.archiveorange.com/archive/v/OaDWVGdLhxWVWIEabz4F -- and was told to try here), but I am kinda shooting in the dark: I have been finding online scattered and vague info stating that this card can be made to work with a sparc solaris 10 box (http://old.nabble.com/eSATA-or-firewire-in-Solaris-Sparc-system-td27150246.html is the

Following alex advices, i''ve used both "text/textctrl.rb" and "etc/threaded.rb" to build my first wxApp. I''ve changed the Sizer type mainly (from "Wx::BoxSizer" to "Wx::FlexGridSizer"). I didn''t find the way to let @log (Wx::TextCtrl) span 2 columns. At the time of writing it''s growing only vertically. And also how to get
