Re: [VW] Widegtry 1.0  documentation

Maarten Mostert-2

Well I was just checking up,...But then just ask my stupid questions ? see the enclosed picture.

 

 

1)   I declared the Window icon as indicated in the hookupWindow method.

 

            self mainWindow artist

                        icon: (Widgetry.DisplayImage image: self class defaultIcon

                                               mask: self class defaultIconMask).

 

As can been seen in the picture the mask is not used ? (The background VW window does it correctly however ?).

 

2)       I tried to give the height of the toolbar and the width to toolItems but that had no effect. I also tried to find the value of 30 which is indicated to be the default somewhere?

 

myToolCollection

                        add: ((Widgetry.ToolItem image: TaskManagerResources chainBrokenIcon

                                               action: self noAction) width: 40).

 

3)       As you can see in the image the fonts are positioned to low and become unreadable when unselected in the ControlTab tabs ?

 

 

Regards,

On a ToolItem, only InputField ToolItems pay attention to the width. Also, the
Toolbar is fixed height.
