Yeh, hopefully it will work... otherwise you'll have to wait until the next release

Do you know what causes this David? I was getting this occationally before I started embedding/sizing every 1/4-a-second on a timer, but that fixed it permenatly for me. Isn't that timer in v2.5 (I know it is since 2.5 embeds sub-windows too)? Mine sometimes looks like that for a split second, but it is always fixed by the 2nd or third call to MoveWindow (which happens every 1/4 second).

Edit: Actually I am using what I sent you just before you released 2.5, but I thought you didn't change anything except fixing some maximize bug??? Did that "fix" cause this bug? I don't get it???

Yeh, the "fix" caused the bug

In order to get iGuidance to embed properly, I end up having to 'nudge' the main iG window to a negative value. This, of course, is something that both David and RPM mentioned as unnecessary. Unfortunately, that's the only way I can get SKINbedder to work.

Any tips?

I broke down and downloaded the latest release and AutoIT. I was having the same issue, and wound up playing with the "EmbedderRefreshInterval" setting; changing it to 300 solved the positioning issue for me.

The only issue I have right now is that the buttons keep flickering every 1.5 - 2 seconds or so.

Oops, I spoke to soon. I have another issue:

edit: i figured it out when I ran sb2.5 in the car. that is being generated by the dropdown menu, which is visible in 2.5, but not in 2.0. Gonna stick with 2.0.

The buttons shouldn't flicker unless they are overlapping eachother. Also, change [Zoom-In], command="Up" (instead of Alt-V,Up,Up,Enter) and then you wont have that other problem. While your at it change Zoom-Out to "Down" and Toggle 3D to "3". I was not aware of the iG hot-keys when I wrote the button commands.

Ol33l: From the activity in that other thread, it seems people would like us to add a magnifier for ETA (as well as other stuff). You got any ideas on that one?

tj!2k4 · 07-19-2005, 06:07 PM

Thanks for the info. Is there a way to display a static image without defining it as abutton? The only way I could display that background mask (the bar) was to define it as a button with no action. Which now explains why the actual buttons flicker.

Check out his post in the other thread. He has a link to an open source magnifier. Perhaps you can use it to integrate. Now, when are we gonna get an updated version of SB. There was mention of a teaser this week, and completion by the weekend. Are you still on schedule?

RPM_VR4 · 07-19-2005, 06:16 PM

TJ: Not in this version but that is already planned. I want it to be able to, for example, hide the main-menu compleatly so you can make your own window (with background and buttons) to replace it.

Wired: I'm still going to try to have someything to relase this weekend. I didn't post a "teaser" with CF 1.3 because TJ beat me to it using the current version

. Now I just need to make TJ's stuff work.

As for the magnifier, I won't have time to look into that right away, but hopfully Ol33l can start working on it and then I can just merge his code with mine.

Wiredwrx · 07-19-2005, 06:20 PM

Thats cool, I got time. (Cause I bill by the hour

)

I'll look into some magnification code tonight
