07:26szeng, can you have a look at https://github.com/saphirion/documentation/blob/master/r3/r3-gui/examples/layouts/layout-32.r3 ?

It seems there's some composition bug under Linux.

09:32view layout [
    title "Main Window"
    button "Open New" [
        view/new/offset layout [
            title "Second Window"
        ] 200x200
    ]
]

view [
    vgroup [
        title "Original Window"
        text "What should happen on closing this window?"
        button "Open New" on-action [
            view [
                vgroup [
                    title "New Window"
                    text "This window closes when you close original"
                ]
            ]
        ]
    ]
]

09:33Cyphre .. the first example under R2/VID .. the second window remains open.  In the second example, the child window remains open but the interpreter drops to the CLI.

09:34There should be a 'halt at the end of that to show the console active

09:34Without a halt, both windows close when you close the parent

18:46Graham, I just updated the r3-gui sources at github and synced the LOAD-GUI version to reflect the changes. The issue you reported above should be fixed in this release. Please, give it a try and let me know.

GrahamC

20:49Ok, will try

GrahamC

21:19Has fixed this problem but has broken my other scripts

GrahamC

21:43REBOL []

if not value? 'to-text [ load-gui ]

v: module [
    Version: 0.0.0
    type: module
    exports: [ test ]
][
    test: func [] [
        view [area]
    ]
]

import v

test

21:44This worked before the new r3-gui from today

21:44Now, the module doesn't know about view

21:44Fetching GUI...
** Script error: layout word is not bound to a context
** Where: if view test do either either either -apply-
** Near: if block? window [
    window: layout/background window any ...

GrahamC

22:19Seems it didn't work with old r3-gui.r3 either . must be another issue I'm having

yoffset

22:23I concur the original problem is fixed on 32 bit, and G must have some other problem.

09:09Graham, this is not a problem of R3GUI. If you want to access 'global' words of your script you need to provide the context to the module. Like:

REBOL []

if not value? 'to-text [ load-gui ]

v: module/mixin [
    Version: 0.0.0
    type: module
    exports: [ test ]
][
    test: func [] [
        view [area]
    ]
] self

import v

test

AFAIK By default, the module imports only words defined in LIB context.

09:11R3-GUI is not yet converted to module but once it is done we'll be able to specify something like  needs: [r3gui] in the headers.

Andreas

13:09Hmm, I tried the MODULE/mixin approach yesterday as well, and couldn't get it to work.

Cyphre

13:09Andreas, that example above worked for me.

Andreas

13:10Let me try again.

13:11Nope, same error with the public 32-bit Linux Saphir build.

13:11Ah, but with the Atronix build it works. So I guess that's due to a fix which has been merged since.
