Re: Various smaller bugs

I am actually using a square pixel mode, usually 1920x1080. That was kind of my point - it is a square pixel mode, but as far as AmigaOS is concerned, you're using a square monitor. Therefore the horizontal resolution is bigger than the vertical resolution, and the pixels are "tall" ( as ...

Re: Various smaller bugs

- When using a 16:9 resolution, the color chooser is not drawn as a proper circle. This is a colorwheel.gadget issue. I can hazard a guess as to why it happens: In the DisplayInfo database, AmigaOS does not differentiate between normal (4:3) and widescreen (16:9) displays (or, technically, does not...

Bug in scrollergclass

When scrollergclass is attached to a window border, manually resizing it with RefreshGadgetAttrs on IDCMP_NEWSIZE does not work as expected, if IDCMP_SIZEVERIFY is also being used. The size seems to get stuck on the previous size set, as adjusting the window again by 1 pixel changes the gadget to th...

Re: MultiView / AmigaGuide.library Bugs (1 minor, 2 grave)

I think the entire datatypes system is in for a revamp. For instance, it would be great to have a document.datatype superclass that would display text document files with basic formatting and text styles. I believe the existing one is already capable of this, otherwise AmigaGuide documents wouldn't...

Re: MultiView / AmigaGuide.library Bugs (1 minor, 2 grave)

The common problem is even with the small gif anim, the CPU usage on my SAM440ep is 100% :-\ The problem is the animation.datatype superclass is rather outdated and not terribly efficient. It needs updating to support truecolour formats, which should improve the efficiency of the entire thing strai...

Re: AmigaOS Suggestions in particular, AmiDock, Push4Dock +

And just to add about prefs reorganisation: Imho prefs:gui should be integrated together with prefs:workbench, as well, as some of the other prefs too, to have just one "prefs:workbench" preference, in whcih everything workbench-settings related will be placed via tabs. Fonts prefs ought ...

AddAppIcon() AutoDoc

There is a minor issue with the AddAppIcon AutoDoc. In the "Inputs" section, the order of the values passed to the function is different to how it is in the function definition. The message port and lock are transposed under Inputs. This is a problem if, like me, you completely ignore the ...

Re: popupmenu causes intuition freeze

Thanks. I might wait until Update 3 just in case that fixes it, and then implement a task as per your suggestion if not. Something I have just remembered - on the Amiga side it gives me Guru Meditation 80000003 which is apparently a CPU unaligned access error. Is it possible there is some alignment ...

[FIXED] popupmenu causes intuition freeze

Can anybody explain what is happening here? After opening a popupmenu.class object using PM_OPEN, I get the following crash and Intuition freezes (mouse and keyboard still work, but you can't do anything). When this first started occuring I hadn't changed my popupmenu code, so I suspect memory is ge...
