[Fxruby-users] reparent/linkAfter in FXFileSelector widget

[Rich <ri...@li...>]

I'm trying to insert my own FXTextField right after the directory drop =
down in the first FXHorizontalFrame... but I've only found the =
'children()' method as the way to navigate through the existing =
structure... and that returns an FXWindow... reparent and linkAfter =
require an FXComposite type as the parameter...

Here's the two different NON-working code attempts:

localVF=3DFXVerticalFrame.new(contentHF,LAYOUT_FILL_X|LAYOUT_FILL_Y)
lfs=3DFXFileSelector.new(localVF,nil,0,LAYOUT_FILL_X|LAYOUT_FILL_Y)
ldTF=3DFXTextField.new(localVF,20,nil,0,LAYOUT_FILL_X)
ldTF.reparent(lfs.children()[0])

...and a different approach...

localVF=3DFXVerticalFrame.new(contentHF,LAYOUT_FILL_X|LAYOUT_FILL_Y)
lfs=3DFXFileSelector.new(localVF,nil,0,LAYOUT_FILL_X|LAYOUT_FILL_Y)
ldTF=3DFXTextField.new(lfs.children()[0],20,nil,0,LAYOUT_FILL_X)
ldTF.linkAfter(lfs.children()[0].children()[3])

What are my options? Is there an easy/easier way to 'insert' something =
into an existing widget like the FXFileSelector?
