I have no idea what you're talking about?!? I have never encountered any
|
|
'stretched' menus.

I did some more testing. I did the following things:
|
|
-I inserted a Wait Key before the Igadget Read$ command: flip back to
|
|
Amos to press the key and: error 8000 000B.
|
|
-I inserted an Iwait Key before Igadget Read$: error 8000 0004.
|
|
-I made a minimal program. See below for the pseudo code version. Result:
|
|
error 8000 0004.
|
|
' Iscreen open
|
|
Reserve Igadget 1
|
|
Set Igadget String 1
|
|
Repeat Until Igadget Read$ = "Quit" '
|

-I noticed on the "Set Screen Title" page a link to "=Iscreen Title
|
|
Height" that is not on the "Screen Commands" page. What does it do
|
|
anyway. Can't you just use something like Text Height (or whatever the
|
|
command is) to determine how high the titlebar will be?
|
|
-I tried to test the new commands, but the tokeniser decided against it.
|
|
Set Iscreen Title becomes Set Iscreen TITLE
|
|
=Iscreen Title Height becomes =Iscreen TITLE HEIGHT
|
|
Set Iwindow Title becomes Set Iwindow TITLE
|
|

|
Although I was looking for bugs, I did not use any system in looking. I
|
|
currently have not got much time on my hands (not entirely true, as I am
|
|
trying to learn E at the same time). I suggest that you put some old
|
|
betatesters back to work, considering the ease I stumble across these
|
|
bugs (even though most of them are small).
