Hi,

I tried googling this and couldn't find anything. Is there something I can do to stop this?

Hi Strube, hmm I have not seen that before myself. Right now I don't know what would solve it.

Is the bottom button positioned in such a way that the menu would go off the right hand side of the screen if it was where it was supposed to be?

No, it happens for the ones on the left side as well. (I'm running standard Ubuntu 14.04 lts with standard PlayOnLinux and standard wine 1.4.1 btw)



And it happens for this shortcut, too:

code:var cb = moi.ui.getUIPanel('moi://ui/CommandBar.htm'); moi.ui.showMenu( 'ObjectSnapMenu.htm', cb.document.body.lastChild.lastChild, 2, 0 );

More or less every second time the menu is opened at the center of the screen.

But it is the only bug I have seen so far. So, all in all it works perfect.

Hi Strube, sorry I have no idea why that would happen, it's especially weird that it would happen inconsistently.

The main solution right now for you to get more reliable operation would be to run it on a Windows machine rather than under Linux.

Hi,

I am using moi with the latest wine (currently 1.7.34 ) on Ubuntu 14.04 and I don't see that problem.

Cheers,

Mark

That sounds great, Mark. I use 1.4.1, because Michael suggests using it and I had problems with the latest stable and some older dev version.

Do you have any other problems? Like strange bold fonts or so?

Hi,

No I don't have any other problems. For certain font sizes, the gui font appears weird but for the size I normally use it looks fine. I am a moi newbie so I have not used all the program's capabilities but all the basic stuff works great.

Cheers,

Mark

Thanks, Mark. Right now even 1.7.37 is the latest dev version and I couldn't see any bold fonts at all.

Also, this is fast now:
code:
var sp = moi.ui.getUIPanel('moi://ui/SidePane.htm');
var st = sp.document.body.style;
if (!st.display || st.display == 'block') {
    st.display = 'none';
} else {
    st.display = 'block';
}
moi.ui.mainWindow.contentChanged();

(Under 1.4.1 this looked like running on a Pentium 2 or so.)

Hi ttype,

Err, forgive my ignorance, what does that snippet of code do and how do you run it?

Cheers,

Mark

You could run it as a keyboard shortcut, it toggles the visibility of the side panel on and off.

But I just mentioned that, because Michael probably reads it. And now he knows, that not just the font thing is better in 1.7.37.

Hi Strube, that's great news that there are other improvements in the latest dev version!
