Hi Richmond,
The working screenRect for Windows XP tells me that the XP taskBar is 30 pixels
fat:
put ((item 4 of the working screenRect) - (item 4 of the screenRect)) into
fatness
and that for Windows ME, 98 and 95 it is 28 pixels.
I don't have access to Windows Vista or 7: would be most grateful if someone
could
let me know the fatness of their respective taskbars.
since the user can resize even the taskbar, and I have seen many people do this,
these info might be not too helpful.
Best will still be the way you currently calculate it!
Probably; but then one ends up in geometry manager land, a place I have
no intention to go to.
"Bog standard users" (the install and get on with it lot) probably won't
have taken the trouble to
muck around with their taskbar much.
======================
I notice, oddly enough,
put the working screenRect
on my Mac Mini gives me 0,22,1680,1004
and
put the screenRect gives me 0,0,1680,1050
now I know the fatness of the mac menubar is 22; so how that gets into item 2,
and what 1004 means
I just don't know.
Do you have a "Dock"? :-)
This does also have a "height" (usually something around 50 pixels), even when
not visible (autohide)
Unless one goes to quite some lengths the standard Mac OS X dock is present.
What I am unaware of is if there is a way if the end-user has there Dock
set up so that it is always
visible for Livecode to force it to autohide for the duration of a
standalone being used.
Richmond.
Best
Klaus
