Property box
Hi everyone.
I have uploaded a diff to implement a property box in Dr. Genius.
You can find the diff here :
http://www.celorio.com/gnome/property_box.diff
Here are some issues that I need to let you know about :
1) Please keep in mind that this is my first Linux/GNOME/GTK/Dr-GENIUS
code,
( Beer !!!!! ) so any comments will be greatly appreciated. This has
been a
great learning mini-mini-hack for me.
2) Issues when creating the diff
I could not find a way to eliminate the :
"only in .." messages when I created the diff.
I don't know if this will have any effect when you patch
the code. If it does please let me know and I will
make the diff again.
I made a copy of the directory before coding
and the diff command I used was :
"diff -ru dr-genius/ dr-genius.original/ > property_box.diff"
3) I just implemented one option, just in case you think
I need to do something different. After this patch gets
committed to the cvs server I will continue with the other
options. The option was Calculator/set_max_digits
4) The code was included in drgenius_menus.c which I guess is not
the right place to put it. I did not know where this code should be
or if this code should be in a file by itself. Because of that, I
included
the following comments.
/* -------- Property box prototypes ----------*/
/* --------- END property box proto ....
/* -------- Property box variables ----------*/
/* --------- END ....
/* -------- Property box code ----------*/
/* --------- END ....
so that it can be relocated easily.
5) In order for this to work there has to be a Calculator open, is
NOT that it will crash, only that it will not affect the variables.
I will work on this latter.
Thank You
