Yes, unless you see it in mentioned in the release notes, you can assume
it's not implemented.

Hi,


     Using HelpBlocks we have created '.htb' file & in our application(built
using wxwidgets) we are opening that using wxHtmlHelpController. In Windows
there is no problem but in Linux we are getting a dialog with the following
message:

"Failed to display HTML document in ISO-8859-1 encoding"  for all the pages ,
Ofcourse we are able to see the help pages.

IN HelpBlocks:

I've tried setting the HTML encoding to UTF-8 in the project properties
->project(tabs) ->edit encodings option.

& rebuilt the html files using Tools->Rebuild html files then generated wxhtml
help('.htb' file). But still i'm getting the error dialog.


please help to resolve the problem.


Regards,

Rajan.M

Hi,

Maybe you're using ANSI instead of Unicode to build the application?

Subject: Dialog Editor Window Size

Send Email Send Email
 
Hi Julian,

I am using DB 4.39 on WinXP SP3.

How is it possible to increase the size of the Dialog Editor Window beyond the
default created when I start a new project. My panel has more controls than can
fit the default size and I have been unable to find where to change the size.
The Help shows a window with scroll bars but I don't have those either.

I have uploaded a screenshot for your perusal to the files area.

Best regards,

Noel Diviney.

Hi Noel,

You can set the size of the particular window at the top level by
clicking on the size tab in the property editor and entering the width
and height instead of -1, -1. Or, when you add controls, if sizers have
been set up correctly it should resize the window to fit the contents.

Regards,

Julian

Hi Julian,

Thank you for setting me straight.
I have given myself a refresher on sizers and now all is well.

I only get to enjoy using DB every once in a while so I tend to get rusty. I
spend a lot of my time these days on embedded micros.

Thanks again and best regards,

Noel.

I'm a bit confused how this relates to the error and why you're
including the sample helpview file in your application as opposed to
just using the appropriate help controller.

Sorry for the vague explanation of the problem. Detailed explanation as follows.

1.I've installed wxGTK 2.6.3 in my linux machine & built the
samples/html/helpview/ which worked fine.

2.I've my application(has its own makefile & wxGTK libs) which uses the help
controller but with the "Failed to display HTML document in ISO-8859-1 encoding"
error.

so the problem should be in my makefile(or my wxGTK libs) and thought kinda
missing some flags in my makefile and posted the last request message

But after that i digged further,

1.Edited the samples/html/helpview/makefile to use my wxGTk & built the
samples/html/helpview/ which reproduced the same problem.

So, the conclusion is problem with my wxGTK lib. Wondering what might went wrong
with my wxGTK build.

Regards,
Rajan.M

Hi,

wxWidgets 2.6.3 is incredibly ancient - you might want to try again with
2.8.12.

You're building in ANSI mode (probably the default in 2.6.3); you need
to build in Unicode mode (pass --enable-unicode to configure). But I
wouldn't be confident that 2.6.3 doesn't have Unicode bugs. I'd advise
grabbing a copy of the 2.8.12 source and building wxGTK.

Regards,

Julian

Subject: Restricting a window's max size to screen size
saurav_ghosh
Send Email Send Email
 
Hi,

I have a wxDialog derived window, in which I've added a wxGrid inside a
wxCollapsiblePane (in the dialog's vertical boxsizer).  The pane is initially
hidden.  The grid is populated based on user's input and then the pane is
programmatically expanded.  I want the grid to expand vertically to show up as
much of the data as possible without having to scroll.

All this works, but if the grid contains more items than would fit on the screen
vertically, the dialog window becomes larger than the display.  The user has to
collapse the pane to access the Ok/Cancel buttons at the bottom of the dialog. 
Also, the items in the grid beyond the top ~30 are cut off at the bottom edge of
the display, without the scrollbar showing up.

Is there a way I can allow the grid to expand, yet restrict the size of the
containing dialog window to not exceed the display's height and have the
scrollbars show up in the grid instead?

Thanks,
Saurav.

I have uploaded gridpane.cpp to the "Files" area which shows what happens when a

When using the code editor in DialogBlocks I have been noticing some
serious refresh issues where there will be grey "bars" covering most
of a line of text, every three lines.  This is happening constantly
and is making it very difficult to work with DB.  If I highlight a
line of text that has the bars over it, it refreshes that line and the
bars are gone until I scroll the window.

I am running Ubuntu 11.04 32bit (Unity desktop) on a laptop (Gateway
nv53a52u) with the Mobility Radeon HD 4200 graphics chip. I have tried
using both the ATI/AMD and open source drivers with the same results.

This is the first time I have used DB on this laptop since I installed
Ubuntu 11.04 so I cannot say if it ever worked previously on this
platform.

Has there been an official launchpad bug report for this?

Hi,

Allegedly this has been fixed:

http://markmail.org/message/a2s7kzmkjsmvh72v

but I don't know when this will turn up in Ubuntu. Hopefully the next
release.

Thanks for the links.  They claim its fixed in package
"overlay-scrollbar (0.1.12-0ubuntu1)" but I have the version of the
package specified and the bug (the exact one you linked to) still
exists.  I hope they fix it soon, but that's their issue, not DB's.

Bother!

Yes, I hope it appears in a sufficient number of other apps... but they
did rather rush things with the latest Ubuntu I think. The new
scrollbars are pretty annoying. Still, so long as they look trendy...

If I'm interpreting their changelog correctly, this isn't a reeal fix.
They merely added codeblocks (and a few others) into some blacklist. So
I assume, that blacklist don't match *every* wxWidgets based app but
just the mentioned ones ...

Further down in the bug report, there's also a hint that if you set
LIBOVERLAY_SCROLLBAR=0 in your environment, you can manually disable it.
So here's what I would do:

1. Verify the environment thingy by running:

env LIBOVERLAY_SCROLLBAR=0 dialogblocks

2. If the above works, Julian should probably add
    ::wxSetEnv(wxT("LIBOVERLAY_SCROLLBAR"), wxT("0"));
in dialogblocks wxApp constructor.

Hi Fritz,

I can confirm your fix works for reverting to normal scrollbars for
DialogBlocks. It was necessary to put the wxSetEnv call in the
constructor, as you suggested; putting it in OnInit didn't seem to work
(I guess libraries have been loaded by then).

Thanks,

Julian

Hi Julian, and others,

I'm bringing up the above topic that I previously raised on wx-users
towards the end of March.  (W/ the same subject line.)

I'm re-raising it here because I'd appreciate a sanity check that there
is a wxWidgets issue here - specifically w/ 2.9.1 - rather than
something that I'm doing incorrectly, or w/ DialogBlocks.

My original wx-users message, slightly edited, was:

"
Hi,

I've experienced a couple of problems as described below.  These do not
occur when I've built and run the code on W7,  using VC++ 10.0; but do
appear when I port it to Ubuntu 10.4, building a GTK2 version there.

The problems are:

1)  The tabs of a wxNotebook remain hidden, until the enclosing frame is
collapsed to pretty much cover the notebook content.  See attached
images.
(Also, FWIW, in another notebook in the project (which has two currently
invalid images in the tabs) once again the tabs do not display.)

2) ... <snip> second problem related to display of images, resolved.
</sniip?
...
"

It is also true that reorienting the notebook (inverting it, or, IIRC w/
tabs on the left) does not display this problem.

A copy of the DialogBlocks (4.39/4.40) project file used on Linux is
attached.
TIA

apply72000
Send Email Send Email
 
Hi Julian,

I have been using DB with great satisfaction on a project for a long
time.  I was recently surprised to note the differences between the
macro, and function name generated for a grid cell changed event.  I.e.
the generated code uses EVT_GRID_CELL_CHANGED ... ::OnCellChange.
Adding to the possible confusion here, of course, is the possibility of
three similar but differently  named events: Grid Cell Change, ..
Changed, and Changing, which to me argues for the function names to
relate even more closely to their corresponding events.  Is the choice
of name deliberate here, perhaps to avoid changes (in DB and client
code) in migration between 2.8 and 2.9 (Changed and Changing)?

Regards,

Alec

Hi Alec,

That's obviously a bug, I'll fix it to use different names in the next
release. Meanwhile you can change the names manually.

Hi Alec,

I tried with latest wxWidgets 2.9 SVN on Debian Etch, changed to GCC
Unicode Debug, built wxWidgets and your sample, and it ran fine without
tab problems.

Perhaps you can try it with latest SVN.

Subject: DB: wxGrids on wxNotebook pages - event handler generation
apply72000
Send Email Send Email
 
Hi Julian,

I'd like to ask a question on DB code generation for wxGrids on
different wxNotebook pages.

In the past I experienced some problems w/ two grids on different
notebook pages.  My recollection was that some events on the grid on one
page were dealt with by handlers for a grid on the following page.

To investigate this, today I created a simple project w/ 4.40 on Ubuntu,
w/ a two page notebook, each page having a wxGrid.  The generated IDs
(ID_GRID, and ID_GRID1) are shown on the project window, and in the .h
file.  Yet when I try add a left click event to each grid, only one
handler was generated (for ID_GRID).  Is this a bug?

(This is not exactly the problem as I recalled it - but it may or may
not be worth trying to see if it is still an issue.)

Best Regards,

Alec

It may be that the id/function names are too similar and are confusing
DB if one is a substring of the other; or maybe you're not using the
..._CMD_... versions of the event handlers. A bit hard to say in the
abstract.

Thanks for this.  I'd planned to re-test w/ 2.9.2, but wondered if there
were something somehow problematic in the project file.
