Re: [perl-win32-gui] problem with list box #2

[fvittori]

Aldo,

I'm not sure what -text     => ('Please provide the following information', 2),
means.    Another developer started writing the script and I "inherited" his
work.      I will look that up and get back to you.

I beg your pardon, but what is:

    -text     => ('Please provide the following information', 2),

supposed to mean?

it is an error, that actually prevents Win32::GUI to interpret your
-style option; your code is seen as:

    # OPTION   VALUE
    -height,   200,
    -text,     'Please provide ... information',
    2,         -style,
    WS_BORDER | WS_CAPTION,

of course, 2 is not a valid option, neither WS_BORDER|WS_CAPTION, so
they're simply ignored.

tell us what did you intend with your code, if it's a missing feature
we can manage to add it ;-)
