- Here are some controls I'd like to see in ODF (so much so I'll probably end
- up
- writing them). If they exist already, I have not seen them.
-
- 1) invisible button - simple button that inverts its background (in case we
- have a bitmap background with special areas aside for buttons)
- 2) bitmap button - a button that has two bitmaps for up/down state
- 3) combo box - I am sure you'll have this for Windows :-) but it would be
- nice to have one for Macintosh too
- 4) slider -
- 5) level - (i.e. % done)
-
- B.
-
- p.s.
- Another cool button... once upon a time I wrote a MacOS control (CDEF)
- which hooked back into the calling application for its functionality. This
- allowed me to have a somewhat generic wrapper for an OS control, and
- implement anything I wanted underneath. Just a thought. Probably overkill
- if I derive from FW_CControl.
