Hi HeX0R and BarryG!

Thank you for your explainations.
Now it works as it should.

Hi! With PBv6.10 you can set the alignment for each column in a ListIconGadget. Question: What is the recommendet value for "Item" in SetGadgetItemAttribute()? Is it #PB_Ignore, #PB_Any or what? "Item" seems to have no relevance. You can only set alignement for the header. How do...

Hi!

Can we get a nativ #PB_ScrollArea_ClipMouse for ScrollAreaGadget() as
a demonstrated here:
https://www.purebasic.fr/english/viewtopic.php?t=83683 ?

It is helpfull if a canvas in a scrollarea is larger than scrollarea itself.

Code: Select all

        GetWindowRect_(GadgetID(0),r.RECT)
        r\bottom - 20
        r\right - 20
        ClipCursor_(r)

That is a really nice, elegant and short solution.
Thank you for your always inspiring coding examples.

Hi Rashad! Thanks again for your (always) tips and tricks. I use your SetRect_(r,GadgetX(0,#PB_Gadget_ScreenCoordinate),GadgetY(0,#PB_Gadget_ScreenCoordinate),GadgetX(0,#PB_Gadget_ScreenCoordinate)+GadgetWidth(0),GadgetY(0,#PB_Gadget_ScreenCoordinate)+GadgetHeight(0)) to limit the mouse inside scrol...

Hi Rashad!

Your example works great.
I've inserted it in my code without any trouble.
Thank you for your help.

Hi, its me again with a question related to the problem above.

Is there a way to create a "ScrollAreaClipMouse" or would
this be a feature request?

Hi Olli, hi Rashad! If you activate the canvas, what does it happen ? SetActiveGadget(2) That's not the problem. :oops: Hi PB 6.04 x86 Windows 11 x64 OpenWindow(1, 10, 10, 1024, 768, "", #PB_Window_SystemMenu) ScrollAreaGadget(1, 0, 0, WindowWidth(1), WindowHeight(1), WindowWidth(1), Windo...

Hi! Just a simple question: What is missing in my code snippet to get the mouse stopping at canvas/scrollarea border? OpenWindow(1, 10, 10, 1024, 768, "", #PB_Window_SystemMenu) ScrollAreaGadget(1, 0, 0, WindowWidth(1), WindowHeight(1), 0, 0, 100) CanvasGadget(2, 0, 0, WindowWidth(1), Wind...

Hi Piero! Thank you for looking into the problem. Your simpleShell() doesn't work as wanted/expected. Runnig the procedure with "to close window 1" doesn't close the just opened "preview"-window. Subsequent opening next picture(s) opens another "preview" and so on. Runn...

Hi infratec! Btw.: 'open' is a filename. ('type open' in a terminal and it shows you the location of it) It is like 'cmd' to start something in a windows shell. It is a program which decides what to do with the given file. In Linux you use 'xdg-open' to achieve the same. Thank you for your explanati...

It is working! Kind of...

What did I do?
I enclosed the filename including the path in double quotes
(most of PDF-filenames included spaces, pics don't have).
And I removed the Killprogram() part. So the Pic/PDF has to
be closed manually.

Thanks for helping!
