Abstract of INFO-MAC archived encoded Mac binary file 'nwt/protore-size-box.hqx' Uploaded 02/27/1998 30432 bytes From: cft1@pop.pitt.edu Subject: Newton - protoResizeBox ResizeBox ET 1.0 by E. Jeremy Tira-Thompson 663 Mount Hope Rd South Fork, PA 15956 cft1@pop.pitt.edu http://www.pitt.edu/~cft1/Jeremy/Jeremy.html This is a NewtonScript proto that allows programmers an easy way to create views that can be intuitively resized by the user. I have included a sample package which uses several resize boxes in different ways. In this way, you can easily see how the protoResizeBox feels & reacts with different settings, and the different design issues to be considered. (clipping problems in particular - a good scrolling setup would usually be an ideal solution) The demo program is a simple little thing that allows you to add polygons to a main view & then move them around. The views include a protoResizeBox, and some have multiple protoResizeBoxes. This shows how the different justifications of the protoResizeBox change its behavior. [... clip ...] Requirements: Any 2.0 Newton system should be capable of running the demo package, and protoResizeBox may be capable of running on older systems with some modification. I want to move on to other projects. Disclaimer: It's not my fault if anything goes wrong! Tell me about it though, I will try to keep it from happening again. I hereby release this proto as freeware. As long as I get due credit for the proto, I will be happy. Please inform me of inclusion on any CDs or other mass distribution.
