Hi, I can put together GUIs...been doing it in Java, Tk, and using Win32::GUI. One thing I'd be interested in would be how to write a Windows app that has a GUI that responds when you click buttons, but the underlying activities/background processes continue to run. This is doable by using th

2004-11-28 Thread Jez White
I've run into a minor problem, probably just me being dense again... I have a form that you click on a button to open another form. When the second form opens, no field is active until you click on one. How do you set a field to be the default field (in the Loft), or how can you force focus to

Hi, A quick reply - I'll have a proper look tomorrow. This sounds like a scoping issue. Take the line: $ExplorerImageList->Add(new Win32::GUI::Bitmap("file_folder.bmp")); This will add a newly created bitmap to the image list - but the bitmap will be "destroyed" by Perl since it thinks the ob
