Re: New Pointer Environment

I tend to agree, Marcel. It's a documented feature after all, even if it's not worked as it should for some time. Thank you Dilwyn for your agreement. If the feature reaches the get ready state one day, I may supply some user guide notes and sample examples, avoiding Norman doing the penible work ;...

Re: New Pointer Environment

I wonder how QSpread fixed this problem when implementing the index items. For a QPTR version of SuQcess I also tried to use the index item, only to find out later it didn't work at all. In the end I stuck to the old way of using extra AWs, that need to be moved in sync with the main AW by the prog...

Re: New Pointer Environment

I guess it's a documented feature (QPTR guide etc), so purely in that respect it should be included. But I do take the point that it's rarely if ever been used. Alain, do you have a specific need for it in software, or is it just that you have spotted the problem and wish to get it fixed? As far as...

Re: New Pointer Environment

We have one pending submission from HAOUI for WMAN that actually fully implements the WM.INDEX call. I'm of two hearts on this one, on one hand I'm really grateful that somebody other than Wolfgang or me submits code for the PE, on the other hand there is currently no use case for it. ... To be hon...

Re: So I bought some QL scrap

BTW, what's that time/date setting utility? Nice clean, bold yet simple display layout on it, with good use of colour. As I can remember, the time/date utility comes from a QDOS Classic utilities package. Choosen for TDI because it could be started easily on freshly rebooted QL with no need for any...

Bottom case

Hi all,
I am looking for a bottom case of a BBQL (only the base case, empty) in order to rebuild mine.
If anyone has a broken machine, I'd delighted to buy this part and pay all fees (to be sent to Paris).
Regards,
Alain

The setting is in User Control Panel -> Board Preferences tab -> Edit Notification Options in the left sidebar, the final entry in that screen has a tick box for both Email and Notifications check boxes for "Someone sends you a private message". That said, I've also noticed I no longer ge...
