3 GUI Questions

[Fluid Byte]

1.) How can I change the icon of the MessageRequester dialog to the error or notice symbol like on Windows with the #MB_ICON* constants?

2.) I noticed that while resizing a window it just shows a frame instead of resizing the content in realtime. How do you "fix" this?

3.) On Windows you have #WM_MINMAXINFO but how do you set the min/max size of a window in MacOS X?

Any takers?

I'll try to answer, but I think it's not much.

1.) How can I change the icon of the MessageRequester dialog to the error or notice symbol like on Windows with the #MB_ICON* constants?

I think this is not possible on Mac, because this option with messagerequester is not supported

2.) I noticed that while resizing a window it just shows a frame instead of resizing the content in realtime. How do you "fix" this?

In my opinion this is a problem of "RS_ResizeGadgets_Include.pbi" or similar. But I have not found a solution yet.

3.) On Windows you have #WM_MINMAXINFO but how do you set the min/max size of a window in MacOS X?

"#WM_MINMAXINFO" is a structure in WINDOWS. This is used (and filled) by especially commands. If there is somewhat something similar on Mac, I don't know. May be you will find something in the deep of the developer documentation.
But you can built your own structure like #WM_MINMAXINFO and set the variables with values you need.

I think and know, it's not very helpfully, but...

At last a little question: do you really use the PB version V 4.30 on your Mac :roll:

Not even with MacOS API?

RS_ResizeGadgets_Include.pbi? Never heard of it, could you explain please?

If there is somewhat something similar on Mac, I don't know. May be you will find something in the deep of the developer documentation.

Where do I get this documentation? Is it part of the "Developer Tools" from the MacOS X install cd or is there a specific website?

I own a MacBook Pro with Intel chip so that makes sense, doesn't it?

Of course with Mac Os API
If you find such API's, please tell me the location. May be I am too impatient or not yet the correct search strategy found

RS_ResizeGadgets_Include.pbi? Never heard of it, could you explain please?

It's part of the "Icludepackv1.1.3" by TS-Soft.

I've ported it to Mac.
It's an includefile and you can use it for a good resizing of windows and gadgets.
BTW, sometimes it's named "RS_ResizeGadgets.pbi"

That's correct
The "Developer Tools" is correctly.

OK

But what I told you here is only for PB on PPC-Mac, not Intel-Mac.

And last ignore my bad english.
