Infoid 1.1 by Frédéric RINALDI DESCRIPTION Infoid XCMD displays a windoid showing current objects attributes. SYNTAX Infoid [<X>,<Y>] PARAMETERS <X> and <Y> are optional integer, allowing to give coordinates where the window will appear on screen. Using "!" and "?" as parameter will return an online help (resp. copyright and syntax). USING Infoid is stand alone, no linked resource is needed. To activate it, you'll have to put a short handler in your Home stack : on mouseEnter if "Infoid" is in windows() then send "Update" to window "Infoid" end mouseEnter Clicking on the zoom box displays more informations. PROPERTIES Like any XWindow, Infoid has properties that can be get and set thru HyperTalk. “properties of window "Infoid"” will return an item list of all allowed properties. Properties cannot be set. Most usual are Loc and visible. So you can move the windoid on the screen, and make it invisible.
