I for one have gotten a lot out of your tutorials. If not from actual tutorial itself, in the creative inspiration. Trying to rack my brain for suggestion but, since I'm fooling around with xpath and CDO that's a little beyond what you're trying to accomplish. PS. I hope they don't ship ya parcel post? <

As I use Tombalachi's Hiding Menu Script quite a bit I've revised and cut 20 lines of code. Since his email seems to be dead I thought I'd post my revised script here. My suggestion is to download his original in order to understand this a bit better. [code="vbscript"]'--Note the With Statement is only used where the savings are obvious '----------CUSTOMIZE HERE--------
Don't see any limo or helicopter pad...kind of disappointed? Hard to miss your car when it's the only one in the parking lot, now get out there and enjoy the long weekend!
This would be more useful if you could choose a specific category. Maybe you can? Have to play around with it some more. Upcoming TV expose here in Oz.....Who's watching while you Google? From what I can gather from the previews, it's about the large numbers of corporations/people who can gain access to the huge data banks of search & personal information Google mines & stores. That's nothing new though. The old TV shows like Rockford file *cou
also to be fair how many of those were actual searches for Window Blinds? it's fun but, seriously not sure of it's real accuracy?
Guess, I would've figured this out sooner if I actually looked at every widget/object's code. RomanDA, damn you and your tutorials making me too lazy! Edit: Haven't gotten Nested With Statements to work like in my old modules but, it works fine with the "DesktopX" namespace [code="vbscript"] Const lLeft="objLeft",lMid="objMid",lRight="objRight",Label="txtLabel" Fun
The other thing to keep in mind when dealing with objects is that you can only reference one object using the With Statement but, they can be nested like if statements. If possible I'd reference the external object using this method. For Example: This code uses the with statement for the external object. [code="vbscript"] '--position/aligned based on the main object Function posObject With DesktopX.Object("ExternalObject") .Left= Object.Right + 1
Using With Statement Example: [code="vbscript"]Set myform = DesktopX.CreateForm With myform .AddPreference "title" .Preference("title").Type = "Text" .Preference("title").DefaultValue = "Title" .Preference("title").Caption = "Title" .AddPreference "title" .Preference("title").Type = "Text" .Preference("title").DefaultValue = "Title" .Preference("title").Caption = "Title" .AddPreference "tit
IMO it's mostly an aesthetics thing but, it will save some bytes or more to your script. Since I'm lazy I'll just use the forms example difference using five settings. Normal Example: [code="vbscript"]Set myform = DesktopX.CreateForm myform.AddPreference "title" myform.Preference("title").Type = "Text" myform.Preference("title").DefaultValue = "Title" myform.Preference("title").Caption = "Title" myform.AddPrefer
That's why I like throwing things out there. Because you never the uses someone will come up with. On a simple object it's probably not that useful but, maybe would save a few bytes in the script. On a large script I'm wondering if it might slow things down slightly?
No problem. Glad you found a solution. I have a nagging feeling that it's something simple that we're missing.
It seems to work with forms as well. Now that's where I can see it being really useful. [code="vbscript"] Set frmfeed = DesktopX.CreateForm With frmfeed .AddPreference "title" .Preference("title").Type = "Text" .Preference("title").DefaultValue = "Title" .Preference("title").Caption = "Title" End With [/code]
Thanks. Don't know why I didn't check that out as I always use the big WSH Help file which contains everything. hmm.... The code feature didn't keep my linebreaks. had to go back and insert BR tags manually... ...and no colouring? Noticed this the other day. Hope it gets fixed soon as it's a nice feature. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/wc/smiles/Hmm.gif" bo
So, I'm browsing through the MS Scripting Help file and stumble upon a statement I forgot about completely... from back in my Access days. I opened up Builder and found the With Statement works really well in DesktopX. I'm not using the vbscript tags because the seemed be striping the formatting. With object statements End With Using it from within an object: Sub MySub '--Changes object size With Object .Height = 128
If you copy & pasted that code directly then the answer lies within in the code. It appears it's possibly a simple spelling mistake "FisrtY"? Edit: If "Grid" has Parent & Group already set then you don't need these two lines. DesktopX.Object(nameObj).Parent = DesktopX.Object("Browser1") DesktopX.Object(nameObj).Group = "Window" Plus, since you have set the ontop setting to the object being cloned you may not need this line either. DesktopX.Object(nam
Anyway thanks for the replies, I've got a working mock up running, it's just not looking at the network file to get the program list, everything is hardcoded. You're most likely going to have to use WMI for this. It appears to be more functional in regards to network scripting but, their's lot's of resources out there in various programming forums. Haven't done any scripting in that area myself but, have seen many examples out there. Is it as po
IMO, if it's just a matter of an "Ugly Menu", keep in mind that a corporate wallet has no eyes and doesn't care if it's ugly. It works perfectly and gets the job done. Cosmetics will seldom improve the bottom line in a situation like that. Exactly, unless of course it's an executive with limited intelligence than they usually like shiny things. <br/
If the have a parent object then they aren't independent objects. Since you have them grouped make sure the child setting is no within the summary tab. That may do the trick. It's hard to be specific without knowing much about the actual script. I just ran my bar chart script which clones a group (all are child objects) plus they reference & update a hidden object on mouse over and the mouse over event works fine. I'm using the onstatechange(state) because I'm referencing functions in
Lot's of ideas but, then your question can be interpreted a number of ways. If the script is in the object that is being cloned then it should be working unless the mouse-enter event is referencing another cloned object? For example this script would work in the cloned object the same as the base object. [code="vbscript"] 'Called on mouse over object Sub Object_OnMouseEnter Object.Left + 10 Object.Top + 10 End Sub [/code] Edit: Oh grea
DesktopX is the program. Actually this forum is a sub-forum for that program.
Until then try Yod'm 3D
Ok, I read that specific case on the drudge report. Actually the powers that be made a decision based on specific laws within that state. Keep in mind that all the information out there so far is only the one side. If the information is 100% accurate in the affidavit then she has a strong case because of no prior warnings. People need to think twice not just online but, also in the real world. Something stupid you do at a party(or anywhere) can easily end up on the net with all the came
Hope you just decide to take a break also. You've contributed a lot and certainly have a great deal more to offer. Some people don't think before they post and then there are always those who just like to be asinine for no good reason. Simply sad. Anyway Best wishes.
Hey, I take a peek-a-boo every once and a while and have to agree with that observation. Now that that's said I can only offer some business observations. First, Stardock Design is relatively a new business even though it contains the Stardock name people need to realize this. Second, the main business is offering services on the corporate aka big money side of things. Not to mention that they're currently in a significant growth phase. Can that area be improved, most definite
