Bugs: [perl-win32-gui-hackers] CVS Commit

[Steve P. <st...@ba...>]

Hello.

I'm going to look into this list of bugs to see what I can fix, but I'm =
quite sure none of them are to do with my patches :) and maybe you have =
some answers:

1. Default DialogBox background is white on Windows 2000, rather than =
the correct colour for a buttonface/3dface. I assume this is known =
because it's blatantly obvious.

2. NEM event onResize seems to be called in the constructor for Windows =
and possibly all other widgets. This is very frustrating because if you =
use onResize to handle your scaling, then often it tries to scale =
widgets that have not yet been defined, causing an error.=20

3. Timers no longer seem to work as documented. In fact they don't work =
at all (for me). This could be something that only manifests itself when =
the NEM is used, but I haven't tested that.

4. NEM events seem to be triggered tons of times. For example when I =
click a mouse button I get about 60 onMouseDown calls.

5. There are times when -style is appropriate. I admit that -style =
SHOULD be deprecated, but there should be a new argument such as =
-forcestyle for when you know what you're doing. I can see that default =
styles could be changed in future, and hardcoding -popstyle for each =
default style seems rather crude to me.
