Slides using $I=* , can the view be enlarged?
« on: August 11, 2005, 12:35:32 PM »
Is it possible to have the SLIDE viewer show a larger Picture of the SLIDE?

I am using $I=*  too call up the Slides

ex.


I would like it to operate like this...

when you click on the slide preview it should just give you an enlarged view of that slide maybe 2x or 4x larger then the current view.

I have seen other 3rd party programs that do this but is it possible to code to something to us the $I=* and just add in this feature??

Yes, but you need to modify the ACAD.DCL file.  See this post

EDIT:  Didn't read your post fully, but the info should shed some light on the subject.

ok i get it.

here is what my code looks like now..

Code: [Select]

acad_icon: dialog {
        key = "label";
        initial_focus               = "listbox";
        : row {
            : list_box {
                width               = 30;
                height              = 23;
                fixed_height        = true;
                key                 = "listbox";
                allow_accept        = true;
            }
            : column {
                : row {
                    : icon_image {
                        width       = 75;
                        key         = "icon1";
                    }
                }
/*                : row {
*                    : icon_image {
*                        key         = "icon5";
*                    }
*                    : icon_image {
*                        key         = "icon6";
*                    }
*                    : icon_image {
*                        key         = "icon7";
*                    }
*                    : icon_image {
*                        key         = "icon8";
*                    }
*                }
*                : row {
*                    : icon_image {
*                        key         = "icon9";
*                    }
*                    : icon_image {
*                        key         = "icon10";
*                    }
*                    : icon_image {
*                        key         = "icon11";
*                    }
*                    : icon_image {

*                    }
*                }
*                : row {
*                    : icon_image {
*                        key         = "icon13";
*                    }
*                    : icon_image {
*                        key         = "icon14";
*                    }
*                    : icon_image {
*                        key         = "icon15";
*                    }
*                    : icon_image {
*                        key         = "icon16";
*                    }
*                }
*                : row {

*                    : icon_image {

*                    }
*                   : icon_image {
*                      key         = "icon19";
*                    }
*                    : icon_image {
*                        key         = "icon20";
*                    }
*                }
*
*              : row {
*                  : icon_image {
*                      key         = "icon21";
*                  }
*                  : icon_image {
*                      key         = "icon22";
*                  }
*                  : icon_image {
*                      key         = "icon23";
*                  }
*                  : icon_image {
*                      key         = "icon24";
*                  }
*              }
*/


Here is what it looks like;



It works the right way, But i would like for the image not to get highlighted when scrolling through the image list. Is this possible??

Now this is a perfect example of what could be a simple but very good tutorial.
Just needs fleshing about a bit.

Gentlemen, any volunteers?  :twisted:

I volunteer you...cause I have no idea how to get the image not to become highlighted. But It would be awsome to get this..

OH...

I have tried adding in the

is_enabled = false;
is_tabstop = false;

I also tried changing the...

icon_image    to    image    this made the slide not selectable but when you select the name in the discription box it still highlights.

Is it possible to reference a different dcl file?  I'd like to create my own 'acad.dcl' file that will only have the 'acad_icon' definition.

Ok, it IS possible to prevent the images from being highlighted in the Icon Image dialog .. it will require a bit of editing to your file though ..

Code: [Select]

acad_icon: dialog {
        key = "label";
        initial_focus               = "listbox";
        : row {
            : list_box {
                width               = 30;
                height              = 23;
                fixed_height        = true;
                key                 = "listbox";
                allow_accept        = true;
            }
            : column {
                : row {
                    : image {
                        color                   = 0;
                        width                   = 75;
                        height                  = 20;
                        aspect_ratio            = 0.66;
                        allow_accept            = false;
                        fixed_height            = true;
                        fixed_width             = true;
                        key         = "icon1";
                    }
                }
/*                : row {
*                    : icon_image {
*                        key         = "icon5";
*                    }
*                    : icon_image {
*                        key         = "icon6";

*                        key         = "icon7";
*                    }
*                    : icon_image {
*                        key         = "icon8";
*                    }
*                }
*                : row {
*                    : icon_image {
*                        key         = "icon9";
*                    }
*                    : icon_image {
*                        key         = "icon10";
*                    }
*                    : icon_image {
*                        key         = "icon11";
*                    }
*                    : icon_image {
*                        key         = "icon12";
*                    }
*                }
*                : row {

*                    }
*                    : icon_image {
*                        key         = "icon18";
*                    }
*                   : icon_image {

*                  : icon_image {

*                  }
*                  : icon_image {
*                      key         = "icon24";
*                  }
*              }
*/
           }
      }
}


You need to change the icon_image to just a plain image, then add the attributes you want it to display .. such as the width, height, aspect ratio, etc ...

It seems more logic to me to  change
Code: [Select]
color = 0; to
Code: [Select]
color = graphics_background;

0 generally creates the background color of the graphics window ... but you are correct, it would probably be more appropriate to use graphics_background ...

You have evidently not followed my recommendation as it WILL NOT highlight the item as it will no longer be selectable

a matter of fact I did.

Yes the IMAGE itself is not selectable correct.

YET...

If you scroll through the descriptions the Image does become highlighted.

clicking on the text not the Image

I want it not to become highlighted either way.
