Is this the right way to turn off row headers? table.rowHeaderMode = LAYOUT_FIX_WIDTH table.rowHeaderWidth = 0 -- vjoel : Joel VanderWerf : path berkeley edu : 510 665 3407

Is there a way to make an FXTable''s column widths (and row heights) unchangeable by the user? By experimentation it looks to me like leaving out TABLE_COL_SIZABLE and TABLE_ROW_SIZABLE from the options field in FXTable.new() has no effect. I can still drag the intersection between two column heading buttons to change the column width. The code I''m using to test this is

How can I get a FXMDIChild to shrinkwrap to its content? Here''s what I''m doing now: def create(*) self.height = maxChildHeight + 30 self.width = maxChildWidth + 10 super end This works, but I''m not crazy about manually adjusting for (apparently) frame and title bar sizes. -- vjoel : Joel VanderWerf : path berkeley edu : 510 665 3407

When I empty and refill an FXTable multiple times with a large data set (10,000 rows x 1 column in the example below, around 1000 rows x 6 columns in a more complicated app), the application eventually fails with a segmentation fault. The number of repetitions required to produce the segfault is rather random, ranging from just a couple reps to 15 or 20 in some trials. The program disappears

Why is the width of an FXSplitter equal to 1 before the FXSplitter#create method is called? My splitter is configured to have LAYOUT_FILL_X, so wouldn''t its width be determined before its children were created? It''s not really a big deal, but I was configuring the split based on a preferences file during initialize, and couldn''t make it work properly. Doing it in

I have an fxRuby GUI app that I am having problems with. I want to bring up a help window from the main window when someone selects a help/help from the help menu. I have created a helpWindow that inherits from FXDialogBox. It has an FXMenuBar, FXStatusBar, and an FXtext which gets filled with help text from a file. When the help/help menu is selected from the main window, I make a new helpWindow,

Hello, Here''s the context: I read a number either pure integer or float with eventually up to 12 digits after the decimal point from a YAML file. The number is injected into a FXTextField with the following code: @value_sel = FXDataTarget.new(@value.to_s) @value_value = FXTextField.new(@matrix_mem_value, 20, at value_sel, :opts =>TEXTFIELD_NORMAL|JUSTIFY_RIGHT,

Hello, I am a new user to Ruby and I installed the Windows Ruby Installer. When I try to run some tutorial examples I get errors. More specifically the one I remember is with FXToolTip. which throws an error saying: uninitialized constant FXTooltip (NameError) It seems that some of the controls cannot be loaded. Could you please guide me on the subject? Thanks Nick Tzanos

Okay, I may have some questions about fxruby and probably the easiest way to ask them is by after I show a program. Plus I am eager to show how much fun I''ve been having... this is still not fully done to call it a v1.0 release, but it is already tons of fun. Please visit the download section of: http://rubyforge.org/projects/ifmapper/ There you will find the following: IFMapper by

I just noticed that MDIClient windows do not automatically become current when they receive a mouse click, but only do so if the click happens inside of an enabled widget. This may very well be correct, but if so then what is the right way to handle it, if you want a more familiar window-manager behavior (click to focus)? For example, if you change the mditest.rb example like so... ---

Hi all. I tried to subclass FXSettings in order to add some functionality to it but I ran into the following problem. The code which shall be executed looks like this: def test reg = Registry.new("test.reg") reg.Parse end The Registry class basically looks this way: require "fox12" include Fox class Registry < FXSettings
