[Fxruby-users] Creating new frames

[Phil S. <ps...@oz...>]

I want to create different entry fields depending upon which button is
selected. I would like to do this by calling a function (see example
below, pressing <Add> should create one label and one text entry box).

This does not work and I thought it was because it was created but hidden,
however adding a .show had no effect. If someone could enlighten me I
would appreciate it.



#!/usr/bin/env ruby

require 'fox'

include Fox

class Test < FXMainWindow
  def initialize(app)
    super(app, "Test", nil, nil, DECOR_ALL, 0, 0, 640, 480, 0, 0)


   body = FXHorizontalFrame.new(self,
LAYOUT_SIDE_TOP|FRAME_RAISED|LAYOUT_FILL_X|LAYOUT_FILL_Y|PACK_UNIFORM_WIDTH )


    topbuttons=FXHorizontalFrame.new(body,
LAYOUT_SIDE_TOP|FRAME_RAISED|LAYOUT_FILL_X|PACK_UNIFORM_WIDTH, 0, 0, 0, 0,
20, 20, 20, 20)



    FXButton.new(topbuttons, "Add").connect(SEL_COMMAND) {add(body) }

    FXButton.new(topbuttons, "&Quit", nil, app, FXApp::ID_QUIT)

    end


 def add(body)

   FXLabel.new(body,"text 1")

   FXTextField.new(body,numcolumns=20)

   body.show

   end



  def create
    super
    show(PLACEMENT_SCREEN)
  end
end


application = FXApp.new("Test", "FoxTest")
Test.new(application)
application.create
application.run
