- Some miscellaneous issues...
-
- (1) FW_CView::DoActivateEvent
-
- Q: Is every view always guaranteed to receive one of these for each
- change in the activation state?
-
- Suggestion: an fActive flag for FW_CView, automagically maintained
- by DoActivateEvent. Many views and frames could use that
- constant in drawing, as opposed to maintaining their own.
-
- (2) Menus - command key equivalents
-
- Q: Somehow, I've got my editor in a state where it continually
- executes command-key equivalents until I release the keys.
- I think command-key menu equivalents are supposed to be
- a one-shot mechanism, right? Any idea what I might have done?
-
- (3) More menus
-
- Suggestion: There needs to be a method in FW_CMenuBar to set the
- command key equivalent for an existing item. Feedback I
- got about a toggle item from an early tester was that the
- toggle item stunk cuz there was no balloon help (OpenDoc
- problem) and there was no way to tell that it was a toggle
- item. So, I've made it two items, with a checkmark indicating
- which is active. However, to get the command key to switch
- between the two requires a direct call to the Mac's Menu
- Manager.
-
- (4) Strike out text
-
- Bug?: When drawing strike-out text with large fonts (>14 point)
- using a FW_CTextBoxShape shape, the strike out line is too high.
- Sorry, I haven't had a chance to see if FW_CTextShape does the
- same thing. Haven't had any sleep since Sunday morning at 5:00
- am either :-).
