Re: Bug in string.gadget/label.image



Personally I would not use a label for displaying dynamic content.


Alright, good point.

Do you think it's worth a try using two different sting gadgets, each with its own static label, and only displaying one of them while removing the other?

Thanks,
Tom

Re: Bug in string.gadget/label.image



This is correct behaviour.


If this is true, it is bad and unintuitive design. A call to SetAttrs should always set the new value of the given attibute, replacing the old one.

If you want SetAttrs to append text to the label, then you should introduce a new tag which tells the developer what ...

Re: Bug in string.gadget/label.image


What I do:
Call SetAttrs() for a label gadget with tag LABEL_Text = a new string (in this example "String _3").

What I'd expect:
The label changes from whatever it was before to "String _3".


This is correct behaviour. You build up the lines of a label by adding multiple LABEL_Text call, each ...

Re: Bug in FE Update 2 Date Command


I was hoping that with this update I could fix my issue, but it doesn't. Indeed, each time I return from my Linux environment (Fienix) to the Amiga environment, the time goes back two hours :? . When I start on the Amiga environment, the corrected time is saved.


Yes I've had that issue in the ...

I created an enhancement request for a dedicated CURSORPEN, BZ 10326 can't give any guarantees as to it's adoption though :-)

Re: TextEditor & StringGadget Cursor colour Tags?

A quick test confirms that the cursor background is taken from the shine colour in GUI prefs. There doesn't appear to be a distinct cursor colour pen ID.

I'm not sure that seperate tags to allow setting the cursor colour would be useful as every app would need to be updated to make any use of them ...

Re: How to set hostname on DHCP client?

I'm not sure if you can set your hostname on the network with DHCP none of my machines ever show up with name on the routers I've used (though loonix and windozes ones can do it).

To get past this I used to use static IP on my old network setup.

On the new setup, since moving there are many ...

Re: Messed up my Fienix

The upper right panel has two of those monitor screen icons, plus two arrows one up one down, each.
Those 'monitors' look like stylized Ethernet sockets to me :-)

I'm not loonix expert but I seem to remeber right clicking on a "panel" will bring up a menu including an edit option?
