Exactly.  Currently the height of the window is fixed to the number of pixels you specify when you create it.  I want to create a PanelBar, set its content to an arbitrary amount of text, and have the window automatically size itself to fit the text.

My main issue with PanelBar as it stands is that it does not allow subclassing because its constructor fails when invoked with no arguments.

I've attached an example of what I wanted, along with a slightly modified version of panelbar.js.  I hope you'll be able to see what I'm talking about.

Re: [Dynapi-Help] scrollbar inside layer

[Bruce T. <blu...@ya...>]

I think the snap shot scripts are out of date, or a tag has not been applied or something.
 
Many of the new examples are not in the snap shot, but I see them from the web sites cvs browser.

Re: [Dynapi-Help] New FileReader Class

[Bruce T. <blu...@ya...>]

Did this ever make it into cvs?  I grabbed the snapshot for 3.0.x from Oct 6 and I don't seem to see it.

Raymond Irving <xw...@ya...> wrote:Hello Everyone,

With the new dynapi.util.FileReader class it's now
easier to read the content of any file on the server
with just a few lines of codes:

var fl = new FileReader(init);
function init(){

var str = fl.read(url);
alert(str);

That it! See the dynapi.util.filereader.html example

Check out CVS or wait for the nightly snapshot

[Dynapi-Help] How to assign LoadPanel() content to a form element?

[Yanglong Z. <yz...@ou...>]

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to load content to a form dynamically with LoadPanel(); So 
far I can only LoadPanel() as an independent element as on the 3.x demo 
page. Although I could add stuff inside the loadpanel, I can't find a 
way to add the loaded content into a form element. I tried use innerHTML 
and document.getElementById(). I actually can get the id, but 
document.getElementById() yields null. I believe there is a DynAPI 
native way to do this. I DynAPI does have internal getInnerHTML() 
methods. But I don't know how to use that kind function my self.

Please help.

Re: [Dynapi-Help] scrollbar inside layer

[Leif W <war...@us...>]

If you are using DynAPI 3, you might want to look at the ViewPane example.

dynapi3x/examples/dynapi.gui.viewpane.html

If you're using the older DynAPI 2, try looking at the ScrollPane example.

[Dynapi-Help] New fixes and updates

[Raymond I. <xw...@ya...>]

Hi Everyone,

[+] Add disableContextMenu() to MouseEvent class - see
quickref.mouseevent.html
[-] Fix dragevent bug with boundary when child layer
is larger than it's parent

Opera is now set to use mouse_ie.js instead of
mouse_dom.js since opera. This works in my mouse
testings. Please test also and give a confirmation.

New updates are now inside CVS

Re: [Dynapi-Help] Where does this need to be poted?

[Raymond I. <xw...@ya...>]

Hello Everyone,

Modify dragevents.js starting at line 107 to reflect
the following:

// Respect boundary, if any
if (lyr._dragBoundary) {
	var dB = lyr._dragBoundary;
	var t = dB.top;
	var r = dB.right;
	var b = dB.bottom;
	var l = dB.left;
	// prevent choppy dragging if child is greater than
parent
	var pw = (lyr.parent.w>lyr.w)?
lyr.parent.w-lyr.w:lyr.x;
	var ph = (lyr.parent.h>lyr.h)?
lyr.parent.h-lyr.h:lyr.y;
	if (x<l) x = l;
	else if (x>pw-r) x = pw-r;
	if (y<t) y = t;
	else if (y>ph-b) y = ph-b;
}

Please see the attacted file for testing the new code.
If it now works as if should then please let me know.


PS. Please note that DynLayer.setDragMode will be
changed to DynLayer.setDragEnabled(d,useIcon)

RE: [Dynapi-Help] New List, Label and Window Widgets

[Raymond I. <xw...@ya...>]

Yep. I think saving the window state is up to the
developer. The developer could use the DynAPI Cookie
object for storing information. It's very powerfull
and easy to use (not to mention cross-browser).

Re: [Dynapi-Help] New List, Label and Window Widgets

[Arijit D. <ad...@pr...>]

Wow, I had been working on something like stacker.js, but using inline 
layers.  I had to put in on hold because things came up.

I'm not too good at making widgets, in fact I suck.  When I finish the 
sample page, maybe someone would be interested in taking the code and 
trying to make a widget out of it for everybody to use?

I'll post a link to the sample page as soon as it's ready.

BTW, big ups to all the developers!  DynApi 3 is looking great.

Thanks,
Arijit

Hi Andrew!

I have looked throught your code and i will make the changes to the
stacker, and aswell the ";" to the window :)

However i dont really understand the change you did to the window. Do
you want the content layer to set the size of the window? Or am i out of
the game?

Daniel

Hi Daniel,

I have been looking at your stacker and window widgets, and I also think
they are excellent.

I have a couple of very minor issues that you may like to look at:

- stacker.js has various methods that use the variable 'i' for a loop
counter without declaring the variable to be local.  I had some very
strange side-effects when I used a for-loop with iterator 'i' to add
windows to the stacker.  I think that the remove(), move(), and
generate() methods all need a "var i;" declaration.

- I have made a sub-class of Window that sets the height of the content
layer to the natural height of content HTML.  But to do this, I had to
make a couple of minor tweaks to  the Window constructor.  A "diff" for
my changes is below.

  Firstly, I put most of the constructor code into an
"if(arguments.length>0)" block.  This allows the constructor to be
called without any arguments, which is necessary if you want to set
Window as the prototype of a sub-class.
  Next, I added an "if(this.h)" test before the line that sets the
content height.  This is purely for my purposes as I didn't want to
explicitly set the height of the content layer.
  Finally, I added a semi-colon on line 27 to keep the compressor happy
:)

I hope you don't mind me posting these changes.  If you would like to

Hi Brian!

I like the idee, but i think its more up to the site developer to use
those functions than to add it to the widget. I will use it myself, but
i will keep track of these things on the server, and use the minimized
option in the constructor instead.

Regards
Daniel

I also have a question or a comment....

Being that the window widget simulates something that you would see on
your PC, would it not make sense to have this widget remember state of a
window? Similar to a PC's windows? I would imagine using cookies would
do the trick.

Food for thought..

RE: [Dynapi-Help] Where does this need to be poted?

[Brian H. <bg...@ke...>]

Raymond, I noticed your code looks different than mine... Try this. And you
should see what I am talking about.  

var container = new DynLayer(null,0,0,200,200,"e0e0e0");
var insideObj = new DynLayer("Inside",0,0,400,400, "blue"); // larger than
our container...
container.addChild(insideObj);

DragEvent.setDragBoundary(insideObj, {left:0, right:0, top:0, bottom:0});
DragEvent.enableDragEvents(insideObj)
dynapi.document.addChild(container);

Hi,

I'm unable to reproduct the choppy behaviour. Here's the code I'm using:

var container = new
DynLayer(null,0,0,200,200,"e0e0e0");
var insideObj = new DynLayer("Inside",0,0,400,400, "blue"); // larger than

DragEvent.enableDragEvents(container,insideObj)
dynapi.document.addChild(container);

Could you provide an online demo of this error?

RE: [Dynapi-Help] Where does this need to be poted?

[Raymond I. <xw...@ya...>]

Hi,

I'm unable to reproduct the choppy behaviour. Here's
the code I'm using:

var container = new
DynLayer(null,0,0,200,200,"e0e0e0");
var insideObj = new DynLayer("Inside",0,0,400,400,
"blue"); // larger than our container...
container.addChild(insideObj);

DragEvent.enableDragEvents(container,insideObj)
dynapi.document.addChild(container);

Could you provide an online demo of this error?
