- Hello ALL !
- i seem to have found a bug in the old but extremely useful windowdeamon
- the bug occurs when ToolsDeamon (nico francois used to add menus to wb0
- is oporating.The sympotoms follow...
- 1. I open a window with autoclose (midbutton + dbl click)
- the parent window closes.Then i click on the close button
- mid button+close gadget the window fails to reopen.
- 2. When opening a window in the usual fashion (dbl click) then closing
- the window regularily (parent window close button) now if i do a close+
- open parent the window will open!
- It seems that the close+open parent does not work so well maybe you can fix?
- here is an excerpt from toolsdeamon docs maybe it can give ya a lead :
-
- ---------
- ToolsDaemon is no longer a 100% legal program! It patches certain
- Intuition functions to attach menu items to Workbench's menu strip
- (which it shouldn't touch) and redirects Workbench's message port in
- order to trap IDCMP_MENUPICK messages before Workbench sees them.
- Everything has been done as cleanly as possible and should be as
- future compatible as it can be, but there is no real guarantee it
- will still work on future versions of the Amiga operating system. If
- you can't live with this continue to use ToolsDaemon 1.0, but know
- that the features ToolsDaemon offers (multiple menus, submenus and
- keyboard shortcuts) CANNOT be offered in a legal way, simply because
- workbench.library V37 doesn't support them. If a new version of the
- Amiga operating system is released and ToolsDaemon is not compatible
- I will rectify this as soon as possible.
- ---------
- hope you can help!
