[Pythoncard-users] updated resourceEditor

[Kevin A. <al...@se...>]

The resourceEditor now has an Edit menu that lets you Add widgets as well as
Delete the currently selected widget. There is no Undo/Redo capability and
probably won't be for a while. This is one reason you still can't save your
results, it is just too dangerous right now.

You don't have to open an existing .rsrc.py file in order to start creating
widgets.

Since I updated the StaticLine, StaticText, and Image events earlier today,
you can now select those widget types.

When you create a new widget a text entry dialog pops up with some default
values that you can edit before creating the widget. I realize the text is
both small and difficult to edit in the dialog, but this is only temporary
and over the next few weeks will be cleaned up.

Remember, to enable the Property Editor (-p on the command-line) in order to
edit all widget properties. In order to select a disabled or invisible
widget, you must first enable it and make it visible using the Property
Editor window.

Note that currently there is a bug in the way the Property Editor works so
that it doesn't update its list of available widgets as new ones are added
or deleted. I will try and fix this tomorrow. I want to get out a
prototype-daily release tonight.

All feedback is appreciated.
