Hi, I've made a couple of hacks to to scrollbar & scrollpane widgets, such that you can now assign a start & end image to the trough.
I say 'hacks' because I havent created a new 'theme', I just hacked the old one. And I didnt modify the 'theme' inside the scrollbar, because I wasnt sure what might happen if someone used the expanded 'theme' with another widget other than the scrollpane.
Anyway, attached are the modified files .. they work for ME, but as usual - your mileage may vary!
Coming soon: (as soon as I tidy up the code a bit)
1. FastList - a slimmed-down version of the list-class that makes long list create MUCH faster (can you say >60sec down to less than 4secs on a PII 233 w 256MB RAM)
2. NudgePanel - a variation on the PushPanel that uses the position of the mouse cursor to define the speed of the scroll, currently a bit stuttery but I havent tried it since I installed the 2.53 release.
3. SlidePanel - not even started yet, but a bit like the Nudge/PushPanels except moving the cursor scrolls the window ... having trouble working out how I'm going to deal with the mouse leaving the widget ... capturing mouse-events from the document does NOT sound like a good idea. (Suggestions would be welcome)
Thx,
Al.
PS: sorry about mailing out an attachment, but I wasnt sure how else to send the files, and its only 10K so I thought ... what the heck!
PPS: these files are based on the 2.53 release of DynAPI
