Re: User Interface Question

Yes there is a header. I tried hiding the header by setting the show header property to false, but it still is displayed. Beginning to suspect that I have some sort of corruption in the datagrid. Pete Molly's Revenge On Sun, Jul 31, 2011 at 11:40 AM, Shao Sean

Is there a header on the datagrid? Does the same issue happen without a header? ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev

Re: User Interface Question

Thanks to all for the advice. I've tried all the suggestions but I still have the same problem. The cursor changes to the hand correctly when I hover over the datagrid. If I move the mouse off the datagrid in any direction except upwards, the cursor changes back to what it should be. If I move

Re: User Interface Question

And it's much better not to lock the cursor and then change it. Locked cursors have a way of sticking if the handler to unlock the cursor somehow misses. instead, don't lock anything, just set the defaultcursor to hand, then set it to empty when done. I usually have this in my stack script: on

Re: User Interface Question

Hi Pete, Never offer a popup menu as the only way to access a feature. Put your popup menu into the menubar and enable the menu items in those situations when the user might as well click on the objects to show the popup menu. Show the same menu, or the essential menu items of it, in the option

I tried that - didn't make any difference. The cursor returns to arrow automatically with the code I have, except when I move the mouse above the datagrid. Pete Molly's Revenge On Sat, Jul 30, 2011 at 1:05 PM, William de Smet wrote: > Hi Pete, > > After unlock y

Re: User Interface Question

Thanks Jeff. I'm trying to implement the cursor change and running into some weirdness. In the script of the datagrid, I have these two handlers: *on* mouseEnter *lock* cursor *set* the cursor to hand *end* mouseEnter *on* mouseLeave *unlock* cursor *end* mouseLeave This cha

Re: User Interface Question

For dragging, I'd go with "handles" on the left side of the datagrid that have hand icon when you hover over them. They've become pretty ubiquitous on webpages. For an example of what I mean: http://jqueryui.com/demos/sortable/ As for a context menu, you be okay with just a tool-tip. People gener
