Beta 1 - here they are!
« on: March 08, 2007, 07:09:35 PM »
All these forms were created - from scratch - in the new OpenDCL Beta 1 program!! :lol: :-o :-D :-) :wink:

This tool "reads" the available door styles in the active drawing.
Form: modeless
Controls: treeview, textbox, blockview, graphic button
problems: none



This tool "reads" the available ADT styles in the active drawing.  (now if we could get Owen to give us the option of getting rid of the window header this would act just like an un-docked toolbar.  In VBA it's thru the API: .ShowCaption = False)

Form: modeless
Controls: combobox, graphic button
problems: none



Controls the display of Layers based on Layer States defined in an external standards file.
Form: modeless
Controls: listbox, graphic button, vertical splitter
problems: none



Collection of View tools - great for working with the PN.
Form: modeless
Controls: listbox, graphic button, textbox
problems: none



If you press the Import View button this is what you get - imports multiple views.
Form: modeless
Controls: listbox, graphic button
problems: none



Imports Layers from that standards file I was talking about earlier.  Uses the Layers filters defined in that drawing to set up the tree view.
Form: modeless
Controls: treeview, listbox, graphic button, vertical splitter
problems: none



appends text to dims.
Form: modal
Controls: textbox, graphic button
problems: none



Keynoting form.  The keynotes are dynamically linked to the file.
Form: modeless
Controls: listbox, graphic button, horiz. splitter, uses the label control for the preview
problems: the splitter is between the listbox and the preview (label control). Everything works as expected until the splitter is moved: then the splitter jumps to the bottom of the form, making the height of the preview 0.  I've tried several different configs.



If anyone wants the ODC and LISP files for these projects let me know.  Some of them are hooked into ADT so beware.  Most are pretty benign . . ..   :wink:

Very nice James. Please check the latest beta, and if you still see the splitter problem, email me the ODC file so I can take a look. And of course, submit your window title feature request on the SourceForge project's feature request tracker page. :)

Owen,

Words cannot convey the appreciation the few here can offer.  When it comes to AutoCAD, I can't see a more powerful combination.  AutoLISP is just sooo hooked into AutoCAD (if NOT the verticals!)

The titlebar request has been logged in the Tracker section of sourceforge under the title of "No Title Bar":http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1674373&group_id=187950&atid=923366

I'd also like to request the scrollbars in the listbox control: why can't they be like the MS forms listbox where they dissapear when not needed?

Again, thankyou for taking this huge undertaking all by yourself - I wish I knew more C++!

Hey, what ever happened to SharpLISP?  Now that would be huge . . ..

I think the splitter issue was fixed in B2.

Nice work Kerry.
How are you doing that insertion point pick?
BlockView & draw a rec. where you pick...

Also, what's "Borders Buppy"?  :lol:

Ahhhh very observant.
A "Borders Buppy" is a document management package I'm developing that controls drawing variations and reads/writes to an Access database .. all in Vlisp with an ODCL front end.
"Borders Buppy" translates to "Border Updater" in babble speak

The green square on the Piccy is related to a data file that I have for each slide. The pick point is intercepted as a percentage of the Piccy size {allows for different res monitors } and the closest point from the file is calculated to identify which reference point to use to draw the steel.

I'll isolate it once the smoke clears and share it as a sample. Pretty clever if I do say so myself ;-)

So do you have 1 slide with every possible ins. point combination, or is the rec. drawn on top of the slide control?
Nice work.

I have one slide for each object class with the circles on the slide. The green Square is add dynamically to the circle nearest to the picked point .. 

with something like this     
Code: [Select]
   
    (odcl_slideview_fillimage CTA17-Steel_MainForm_Piccy
                              (list (list gb:nx gb:ny 16 16 3))
    )

A little  question : Which software do you use to create your animated gifs?
