Eric, Perhaps you could share those direct communications from Aldo with people that maintain Win32::GUI FAQ lists these days? Or the list at large? Perhaps some of it could get incorporated into the FAQ or into some other documentation? Like others, I'm starting to wonder if there is any active development of Win32::GUI happening. As I'm considering doing a fairly major Win32::GUI application soon, I'm a bit nervous about the level of support that might be available, should I run into a serious limitation.

Hello Eric, Problems: 1. Richedit doesn't work in conjunction with Win32::OLE. When my script w= as small Richedit and Win32::OLE worked together. But my script became bigge= r and the dialogs with Richedit didn't work anymore. I refactored my script and it worked fine. But some lines code later it didn't work again. The behaviour was unpredictable. I found out, that the problem was Win32::OLE. But I found no solution and couldn't set up a little script that shows th= e problem. So I replaced Richedit against a textfield with multiple lines. = Not very good. 2. Checkboxes with Listviews. I absolutely need a Listview with checkboxe= s. But I didn't find out how to check it initially. I can read the state but can't set the state. 3. Tabular keystroke for switching between widgets. It did work until I o= nly wanted one window shown in the taskbar. So I used -parent option and this didn't work. These are my greatest problems while developing my app. It is a little workflow management system for ebay sellers. It is german, but the marketplace specific code is external. Regardless there is no english use= r interface or a marketplace module for ebay.com. I am thinking about L10N = and then will search for developers who can convert the marketplace module fr= om eBay.de to eBay.com. (http://sourceforge.net/projects/auctioneer/) My second problem is my biggest these days. I want to use such a checked Listview for displaying installed marketplace modules or auction fees. I can't figure out how to set up a list with some checkboxes checked and others not. Other problems are for example that I use a speedbar and didn't find out = how to use transparent images for it. Another color setting on another system and the app looks bad. Then the bad window management. A message box could be send behind the ap= p, and so on ... I really would appreciate tooltips, but is there active development in th= is project? Thanks for reading :-) Peter, Germany Ulm > -----Urspr=FCngliche Nachricht----- > Von: per...@li... > [mailto:per...@li...]Im Auftrag von > Eric Hansen > Gesendet am: Dienstag, 19.
