Well, first if you plan on making _any_ money at all, if you're going to
|
||
|
|
disable screen closing, you should really get rid of the instructions to
|
||
|
|
find the screen base. This works quite well:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|

|
||
|
|
IWindow Open Wb 1,20,20,400,100,"Watch me disappear!"
|
||
|
|
B=Iwindow Base
|
||
|
|
Wait 100
|
||
|
|
_CLOSED=Intcall(-72)
|
||
|
|
Wait 20

Do I get a registered version for that? ;-)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Also, is there any chance of incorporating the Intuition Wait() commands,
|
||
|
|
instead of having to check the menus, all the gadgets etc in the main
|
||
|
|
loop? Something like this:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
EVENT = IWait Event (WINDOWNUMBER)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Even would equal something like:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1 - menu selected
|
||
|
|
2 - gadget clicked
|
||
|
|
3 - Window flags changed (moved etc)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
etc
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
then you could use:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
_DATA = IEvent Data
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
which would be the gadget number that was clicked, the window that was
|
||
|
|
changed, the menu number that was selected, etc.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This would be a lot neater and use less CPU time.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Other than that, this is a great extension and something I really plan on
|
||
|
|
using to write my next (first :) ) "Major" program - a BBS. I especially
|
||
|
|
like the way you can past icons onto Intuition screens, and copy between
|
||
|
|
AMOS and Intuition screens. This easy way of assing graphics could
|
||
|
|
really liven up some programs :)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Anyway, keep it up, it's looking good. I'll do some examples for you :)
