Hi Joaquim,
The parameter "pointer" resides in the
graphics section of the diskorc. Please try the value "external". This makes use of the X11 pointer completely disabling the internal one.
As to the layouting. Normally we do all the layouting in the dialog xml files. Using a combination of <hbox>, <vbox> and <gap> elements for the placement. All of our layouting - in our projects - is done using xml-files and the dialog manager.
The widgets have a size attribute. This attribute is used to determine the space needed in a box widget. In an hbox this reflects the width taken by a widget. In a vbox the size attribute reflects the height of the widget.
So layouting 2 Buttons in a xml dialog can look as follows:
QUOTE:
<mainwindow w="320px" h="200px" >
<vbox>
<gap size="10%"/>
<button size="40px"/>
<gap size="10px"/>
<button size="40px"/>
</vbox>
</mainwindow>
That's adding 2 Buttons with some space between them vertically aligned to the window. Yo can nest the <vbox>, <hbox> and <gap> as you please, and thus can reach most of you layouting purposes.
There are lots of attributes that have an impact on this, like alignment, size, margins and so on. The pity is, that we do not have a thorough documentation yet, outlining all of them. The best thing is to have a look to the Morphine.TV source code, as there are lots of dialog files used. In the meantime, just keep asking, and we will help you on the layouting.
Your wishes could certainly be addressed, i will have closer look into it, but it seems that they could be added without too much hassle.
kind regards
Stefan
