- I need to make a 'Panel Text Field' highlighted. I.e., selected. The
- environment I am using is OpenWindows 2 and XView. Could someone point me
- to some sample code to do this? If I have to fake mouse events to a text
- field that is okay with me, but I really don't want to re-invent this if I
- don't have to. I have a copy of the O'Reilly XView Manual, which describes
- how to do this with text sub-windows, but that's not what I want. I know
- that I can set the PANEL_CARET_ITEM, but that's just too subtle for the
- user audience for the application I work on.
-
- If this is solved simply in OpenWindows 3, I might just use that ...
-
-
- yes it's solved in V3, and you are correct that calling it's
- event handler with the correct actions will work as well.
