Experiment with the RoundWindow WDEF
|
---|
This guy, Mattias Ellert, has a
RoundWindow WDEF
and being the crazy impulsive person I am, I snarfed it down and
plugged it into a couple of my Kaleidoscope schemes. In his
(quite brief) Read Me file, Mattias had already explained that
it wasn't going to work with Kaleidoscope, though not in so many
words:
"Zoom boxes and grow icons are not available for round windows. " The results are less than desired, but still amazed me enough to throw this page together. I've made a series of screenshots that show the RoundWindow WDEF in use as part of a Kaleidoscope scheme. I named the temporary scheme "crashtime" though I didn't crash until I switched to the scheme while already running Netscape and NSCA Telnet! I have not beat on this very hard at all, so I'm sure there's lots of other things that would cause unpleasant crashes which I haven't found yet. I wonder what happens if I turn on the WindowShade extension and try to close one up? If I get brave enough to try it, I'll probably update this page. In the screenshots, you'll see the Kaleidoscope control panel, a Telnet window, a couple of finder windows and a DragThing windoid, which is not round. I should warn you now, these are shots of a 1024x768 screen, you'll need to scroll around a bit. That also means large files, they're between 75K to 80K so you'll want to read the descriptions and then you'll probably only look at the third shot, but what the heck.
