I'm trying to wrap my head around Ruby, FXRuby, etc., getting back into
programming after 15+ years away.
Went through the Pragmatic Programmer tutorial chapters, now trying to
justify a label in a simple main window. I'm obviously missing something basic.
code is here:
require 'fox16'
include Fox
class Marlene1 < FXMainWindow
def initialize(app)
super(app, "Second window", :width=>600, :height=>400)
label_icon = FXJPGIcon.new(app, File.open("mlp.jpg", "rb").read)
label = FXLabel.new(self, "This is a label", :icon => label_icon,
:opts => JUSTIFY_RIGHT|JUSTIFY_BOTTOM|ICON_BEFORE_TEXT)
label2 = FXLabel.new(self, "sunken label", :opts => JUSTIFY_BOTTOM)
show(PLACEMENT_SCREEN)
end
end
if __FILE__ == $0
FXApp.new do |app|
Marlene1.new(app)
app.create
app.run
end
end
No matter what I do, I can't get the label to the bottom of the window
(or any kind of justification, for that matter.) I put the icon in so I
could play with moving the label around. I tried
changing the height and width of the label, no luck. I tried creating
the label in an FXMatrix child window, and that was even worse - the
labels and icons
disappeared altogether until I resized the main window - then all of a
sudden they all appeared again, but still not justified.
What am I missing here? I'd sure appreciate help.
Thanks!
Marlene Phillips
