How about getting the windowhandle of the menubar and then using the rect of that? I see it with a windowtitle of "Revolution" and a windowclass of "MCWinClassW". Hey Mark, I want to clearify, I'm trying to get the C++ apps window to stick to rect in the Rev window. I can definitly get the WindowHa...

I have a small application (C++). I don't need to interact with the app, but I would like the applications window to stick to a rect on my Rev stack. Is there anyway to do this?

Hi keyless, Have you reported the bug? Best, Mark I was going to report it but I don't actually own 2.9 or 3.0. Someone who does just reported to me that one of my stacks did that in his IDE. ...Yes the earlier report was for 2.8.1 and I don't have that issue 2.8.1 and that is probably why it went ...

This is not a bug in version 2.8.1, but I think it is in versions 2.9 and 3.0 If you make or have a shaped stack window and put a button on it with script to set Iconic to true, the window doesn't minimize to the taskbar like it did just fine in 2.8.1, rather it just moves the window to just below t...

I am using revBrowser with scrollbars set to false. This works proper when I have it pull up a regular web page on the net, but when I try it with a html page in local file system I get an inactive verticle scrollbar even with scrollbars set to false.

This is in version 2.8.1 on windows XP

I've decided to go with using revbrowser methode it seems to be reliable, looks proper and functions proper. That is except I can't get rid of an inactive verticle scrollbar, but I'm going to ask about this on this forum. Also I do hope they fix revBrowser not working right with shaped window. Thank...

Hi Keyless, I had severall occasions where a WMV file would play fine on one PC and not at all on another. If you don't have a real, plain old MCI file, then don't expect it to play. Since 99.9%* of today's WMV files are not MCI, I'd go with QuickTime. Best, Mark *) I made up this number ;-) MCI is...

No, I know about the dontuseqt property - but it's my bad anyway - I was having a refresh problem with rev and after a few tries it worked after all. On Windows anyway - I don't think it can be done on a mac that doesn't have the wmv library for qt installed. I have too many different codecs instal...

Dear Keyless, Make sure to read this carefully. Best, Mark I read care fully and it doesn't look good for consistant play for 2.9, but the suggested ticket http://quality.runrev.com/qacenter/show_bug.cgi?id=5886 shows completed, Does this mean it works in 3.0? As shaddy as this is looking, has anyo...

Are you saying this from experiance with 2.9 and 3.o, or because you are not aware of the dontuseQT command and how it uses MCI, that can play WMV?

I need to do a splash screen for a install CD that will play a WMV. I have seen much talk of playing WMV in a player, but have also seen that it doesn't seem to work in some versions of REV (I think I tested myself in version 2.8.1 and it didn't work right). So my question is this, does WMV play cor...

figured out what to do.

I found that the maximize causes a stackMove, so I was able to make a handler for that rather than the resizeStack which i could not get to work.

Well I ran some tests like Jan did and now it's looking like the resizeStack handler is getting the message. I put a break point in middle of my script in the handler and found when it stopped at the break point, the maximize of the window had not completed window had moved all the way to the left s...

There is something to this. I have a resizeStack handler that works fine if window is resized in any way, except if Windows Maximize button is used. if the button is used, the window maximizes and I see that the resizeStack message is fired, but handler doesn't run. I have nothing else that traps th...

Hi Keyless, one way to do it is create invisible image "tempImage" set the text of image "TempImage" to the text of image "ResizedImage" export image "tempImage"..... delete image "TempImage" you could also get the width and hight of the resized image and reset the image to the original size and ex...
