HMG 2.8.1? ... Yes! ... well... maybe :)

[Roberto Lopez]

Hi All,

Well... I'm trying to not make the same mistake twice, so, prior to publish a 2.8.1 full release, I've decided to publish the sources here.

Please, test it!

I've rewrote all 'by cell' thing from the scratch, so, if you find bugs, I'm sure that (at least) will be different ones

You should merge the attached files with your existing HMG installation and create the library (\hmg\sources\makehmg.bat). Please backup your current HMG first)

Here is the provisional changelog:

///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
- Harbour MiniGUI 2.8.1 Changelog:

English:

-Fixed: Window not accepting keystrkes on program start. Introduced in 2.7.0. Reported by RalphMDS.

- Modified: GRID control. Navigation is 'by cell' from this version. To enable or disable it, you must use:

SET CELLNAVIGATION ON | OFF

Sample: \hmg\samples\grid_21

Thanks a lot Roberto. Will revert back.

BTW, Set CellNavigation On|Off is nice.

Yes. I've wonder that there is situations that you want that the user select an entire row and not only an individual cell. Besides that, backwards compatibility should be preserved, so, 'original' grid code is untouched. Your application uses a different path to handle grid, based upon 'CellNavigation' flag.

Please, test and report any problem you found.

TIA.

Regards,

Roberto.

Hi Roberto ,

Hi All,
...
Please, test it!

Tested :

- Solved : Focus status of main window at startup;
- Solved : Problem when GRID is in a CHILD form and closed ;
- Changed : Row / Cell colors changing when GRID lost focus ( Now does not change and IMHO this is better ).

Result : everything is okay for me

Also SET CELLNAVIGATION is a very handy feature.

Thank a lot

Best Regards

If all goes fine I'll do a full release.
