Re: Display manager component usage
Hello,
The display manager is a bit under development and improvement but the basic functionality can be seen here.
Please note in putting this example together I have found and fixed some problems and these have been pushed to the Help -> Library update system.
I'm not too happy with it yet so if you have any ideas or suggestions then that would be appreciated. A simple improvement might be to have the textfield object be bounded and multiline like the textfield component.
There is also the question of bg/fg colour and clearing of the display, at the moment this is handled by the user to make things as flexible as possible but the component could perhaps be doing more.

Re: Display manager component usage
Hi Ben
I see you updated the WiKi and it does contain the info needed to create an object, but it seems a little over complicated compared to other Macro's. Would it be possible to just enter a byte value to indicate the type (e.g. 3 = Type_Rectangle) with perhaps the tool tip informing what the byte signifies?
Just a thought.

Hello,
Yes good suggestion I'll add the numeric values too and update the tooltip.

Hi Ben,
I have reviewed the example and took a look in the wiki, now is more clear for me how could be use this component. I really appreciate your effort. Thanks a lot
Now I will try to do some programs using the Display Manager, then I think I'd back with some suggestions.
