DESCRIPTION
Source code for MoreReq. MoreReq is:
A small linkable library that makes it easy to make popup gadgets like
those seen in Windows 3.1 and requesters in which the user may select
from a variety of items.
MoreReq opens a window with one listview and from zero to unlimited number
of buttons below the listview. The user may select an item from the list and
perform various actions on that item (by pressing one of the buttons below).
The requester will return the number of the gadget pressed or 0 if the
requester was cancelled. The user may also doubleclick directly on the items
in the listview to select an item.
MoreReq features many tags which can be used to customize the requester.
One very important tag is MRLV_DropDown which makes the requesters look
like a MS-Windows dropdown menu. Other tags worth mentioning are tags to
centre the requester horizontally and vertically on screen, height and
width can be given in percent of the screen's dimensions, tag to put the
parent window to sleep etc etc.
MoreReq also features an extension to gadtools.library's CreateGadgetA which
allows easy creation of a pop up gadget.
MoreReq is very easy to use as its functions are similar to those found in
asl.library (mrAllocRequest, mrRequest, mrFreeRequest etc).
All functions are well documented in the MoreReq.autodoc and a small example
program with source is also included to show how the functions are used.
REQUIREMENTS
OS 2.04 or higher. The library will take advantage of Kickstart 3.0 and
68020+ processors if found if found.
