Re: Timezone conversion

Is binary port of libtz publically available somewhere? I doubt it. At least for YAM we are building libtz from scratch. It is only a very few files: libtz in YAM And it requires the zoneinfo files for all the different locations on earth, each with its specific rules when DST was active in the the...

Re: Timezone conversion

Unfortunately there is no function (yet) in AmigaOS for this task. This is why YAM is using libtz to do the necessary conversion and to decide wether the given date/time was within DST or not. timezone.library can tell you if DST is active now , but not for an arbitrary date/time in the past or in t...

Re: Optional element in OS4 AnchorPath

We'll wait until the new AnchorPath ap_ExData is reliable before switching. What are you waiting for? It already is reliable. If it is non-NULL then you can use ap_ExData and take all required information from the supplied structure. Otherwise you take all the required information from the old Anch...

Re: MUI 4.0 (20.368) bug: Wrong position of text

Text in wookies text buttons are shifted to the right now. If BZ #8700 was raised by you then I am still waiting for a reply from your side. If BZ #8700 was not raised by you then you can provide the requested screenshots nevertheless, too. I tried WookieChat myself and for me all buttons look corr...

Re: MUI4 screenmode setting lost when saved from OWB

I really ask everybody to report bugs on the new MUI development site http://muidev.de. Get a login there and report all quirks, bugs and enhancement requests. I cannot read every post in all the different fora.

Re: Launch of the new MUI for AmigaOS development site

Can you get rid of that horrid tab highlighting? No other gadget does that, I don't see the need for it here nor any way to switch it off. The topic of this thread should make clear that this forum (or any other forum) is the wrong place for such feature requests from now on. Go figure it out how t...

Re: Launch of the new MUI for AmigaOS development site

However how do I actually use the autoinstall file? Amiupdate does not see it and I can find no way to point Amiupdate to it. It is a simple Shell script. Execute it, i.e. "C:Execute AutoInstall". Additionally I just moved the update to the public AmiUpdate database. Hence it should be av...

Re: Launch of the new MUI for AmigaOS development site

Will this update also be part of an AmiUpdate or do i have to download and install it manually? Until we established an automatic exchange between muidev.de and AmiUpdate you will have download the archives manually. The archive contains the usual AutoInstall script to copy the new libraries and cl...

Re: MUI - Jan. 15th update vs. SimpleMail

This issue is due to a fix I implemented for those people who insisted in using the old ReAction OWB in parallel with Odyssey. Both applications use the same name for their ARexx ports. The next release will revert this change which also fixes this issue.
