Custom dialog boxes examples?
« on: August 01, 2006, 05:13:22 PM »
Does anyone have any simple/complex dialog boxes that they have created that they would be willing to share?  I have only found one page on the net so far, and am still looking, that shows how to create your own dialog box.  If you don't have any, and know of a good resource I can learn from, I'm all for that also.

Thanks in advance.

The lab's?  :)

Just remember about doclocking and you will be fine.

No, the IDE.  Didn't see the Design button right there, that allows me to design the dialog like VBA.  That was bad.

Thanks for the heads up about doclocking.  I will have to look into that, as I don't know what that is right now.

I don't feel to bad though.  I'm coming from a lisping background.  We have to type out all our dialog boxes, so I'm not used it these new fancy IDE helpers.  Yea, that should work.  They will believe that.

I'm just a Cad guy, that likes to program stuff I can use. :-)  Never needed anything bigger than what I could write in lisp, but now that I know, I want more.  So him I am, trying to learn .Net. :angel:
And it looks like a long journey.  Good thing people here like to help people who want to learn. :wink:

Thats the same excuse I use, and no-one has challenged it yet, so it should work for you as well ... :lol:

Thats the one thing about DCL it will always be here when you need it most :lmao: (I hope)

I try to develop all my dialog in dcl, I haven't had to go third party yet.  It amazes me what you can do with the image /  image button tiles. 8-)

DCL is what made me learn VBA.

Tim:

 One good source is The AutoLisp Tutorials DCL-Dialog Control Language by Kenny Rammage @ www.afralisp.com
