I have just posted two source programs. One is the source for a file name requester that looks like the one used in Deluxe Paint. The other is an example on how to use the requester. To see the requester in action do the following: 1) You must use CLI to run the example. 2) bring up the example driver program by typing "screen". 3) Pull down the "Project" menu and select the "Load" or "Save" item. 4) The requester will be displayed. The requester contains the following gadgets: 1) 8 boolean file selection gadgets. Each gadget contains the name of a file or directory entry in the current directory. 2) 2 boolean gadgets for scrolling up and down in the list of names displayed in the file selection gadgets. 3) A potentiometer gadget for scrolling up and down in the list of file selection gadgets. 4) 2 string gadgets. One for Drawer (directory) names, and the other for file names. 5) 2 boolean gadgets. One is Cancel, the other is Load (Save). These gadgets end the requester. If you selected the Load gadget, the driver will print your file name on the workbench screen. if you selected the Cancel gadget, the driver will print "You punted" on the workbench screen. The screen program allows you to see the requester used in different screen formats. You can change the ViewModes (High Resloution, Interlace, Dual PlayFields...) and the number of bit planes. Use the "Edit" menu to change the settings. Use the "Project" menu's "Use" item to use the new settings. Once you have a new screen ViewMode, or a new number of bit planes, use the "Project" menu's "Load" or "Save" item to redisplay the requester. There is a requester.doc file that shows you the software interface to the requester. It uses the documentation format used in the Amiga Intuition Reference manual. Both programs compile with Manx and work fine under 1.1. They don't seem to work under 1.2 beta6 (anyone want to look into this one?). I haven't compiled them under Lattice. What's next? Well, I thought I'd go on to add the 'zz' baloon anytime a directory is being listed. Also thinking about scolling the names as the potentiometer gadget moves. This should be a performance wonder! Anyone got any other ideas or enhancements? Of course there is the question as to why it doesn't work with 1.2..... Any volunteers? Anyone want to help?
