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/.

I''ve seen a few e-mails about multithreading with respect to wxruby but nothing recent. Unless I''m mistaken, and that may be, there still appear to be problems. The following code seems to hang my spawned thread in favor of the wxruby event loop: Thread.new do puts "in thread" loop do sleep 5 puts "looping" end end puts "main

Cross-posted to the blog (at http://lylejohnson.name/blog/2010/08/04/moving-on/): When Jamis Buck wrote last year about ceasing development on Capistrano, his post really struck a chord with me. If this post reminds you of that one, it''s because I re-read it before sitting down to compose this one. It was the next best thing to having Jamis on hand to give me a pep talk before I had to

Hi all, How soon can we do our alpha (binary gem) release? 1. I would like to get the samples working a bit better, but am ok simply documenting most of the current problems. Do the samples crash every few minutes for other people? Or is it just me? I would like to have a copyright/license comment at the top of every sample file before the alpha release. 2. I would like to receive and merge a

Hello, Has anyone tested QtRuby? I''m doing a small OpenGL application http://www.discretizer.org and just want to know the arguments for staying with fxruby. This is what I have discovered: Pros: -Fxruby seems to have a very nice OpenGL support (FXGLViewer) which is what I really need. -Nice looks. No unnecessary theming support. -Very fast and light on system resources. Cons: -No

Hello all, Running this on an Intel Mac OSX 10.4.8 ruby 1.8.4 (2005-12-24) [i686-darwin] wxruby2-preview (0.0.37) using zshell I''m having a heck of a time setting up a GUI with a differing number of widgets per row, resulting in a differing number or widgets per column.

Hi All, This is my first post and I am a complete (well almost complete) noob at WxRuby. I have programmed in Ruby for a while, but now I am trying my hand at a GUI base program running on Windows. There is quite a bit of serial communication between the app and a external device. The problem I am facing is a function call that takes a long time to complete before returning to WxRuby.

First, Thank you, thank you, thank you for those who put wxRuby together. I''m thrilled to be able to write GUI code in Ruby! I''m hitting some confusion about how Sizers work. I''ve read the tutorials and the section in the wxWidgets book but I still can''t seem to figure this out. Here''s an example of my code: parent = Wx::Panel.new(frame, -1,

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

Hi Do a search on ''wxruby'' and you''ll see that people''s main gripes are 1) stability 2) development progress 3) documentation and 4) syntax. We''re making great progress on 1-3 so thought it seemed like a good time to start looking at 4). So here''s announcing a first release of WxSugar. It can be downloaded via gems (gem install wx_sugar)

Hey Guys, This just came over the rubytalk list. Does anybody have any Debian experience? BTW, one thing this project *really* could use is people to package wxruby for <your distro here>. You don''t need SWIG/C++ experience for it, and a little work could help a lot of people. Nick -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Re: Help a newbie pick a gui tool kit Date: Sun, 13

I have a WxRuby application that takes a few inputs from the user and uses that information to search through a large file for matches. The application works very well, with one exception. If I click anywhere in the frame while the application is searching through the long file, the application hangs. Has anyone experienced anything similar to this? Any suggestions on how I can fix this? Thanks

I am trying to use a grid widget in my application, but run into a number of issues: -- Can they be placed in a panel? Or better yet, placed in sizer with other controls? I have only been able to place a grid inside a frame. -- Can you designate multiple rows (or columns) as being used for labels? -- Can you create cells that span cols (or rows)? -- What events are available to trigger on? How

I see that GridBagSizer is not yet supported by wxRuby. Is there an alternative to specifying that a widget spans more than one column? I don''t see a way to do that in FlexGridSizer. -- R. Mark Volkmann Partner, Object Computing, Inc.

=begin I am trying to understand how FlexGridSizer works and I have written a small test application using the latest wxRuby 0.4.0 on Win XP (Home). I cannot get static text ''Week'', ''Day'' and ''Date'' line up above the OK button. I have tried all combinations of ALIGN flags, but I either got the text sticking far too close to the left edge of
