• wxruby - Set max length of ComboBox

  - by Jonas Söderström

  Is is possible to set the Max length of a ComboBox in wxruby? I have looked in the documentation but find nothing http://wxruby.rubyforge.org/doc/combobox.html But if i do my_combobox.methods.sort I get set_max_size and set_min_size in the list. But When I call it my_combobox.set_max_length(100) I only get undefined method 'set_max_length' for #<Wx::ComboBox:0x4d4a914> I've also tried to call it as a private method def my_combobox.max(i) set_max_length(i) end my_combobox.max(100) But with the same result. The issue I want to avoid is that if somebody pastes 6000+ characters in my Combobox the text becomes white.

• Ruby GUI (non-complex layouts)

  - by Ruby Novice

  I've done quite a bit of research on Ruby GUI design, and it appears to be the one area where Ruby tends to be behind the curve. I've explored the options of MonkeyBars, wxRuby, fxRuby, Shoes, etc. and was just wanted to get some input from the Ruby community. While they're definitely usable, the development on each seems to have fallen off. There is not a great deal of useful documentation or user bases that I could find on any (minus the fxRuby book). I'm just looking to make a simple GUI, so I don't really want to spend hundreds of hours learning the intricacies of the more complex tools or attempt to use something that is no longer even being developed (Shoes is the type of application I'm looking for, but it's extremely buggy and not being actively developed.) Out of all of the options, which would you guys recommend as being the quickest to pick up and that still has some sort of development base? Thanks!

• Is there anyway to enable MultiSelect in the StyledTextCtrl

  - by John Baker

  I've noticed that the StyledTextControl (Scintilla basically) in wxWidgets has a great feature that allows multi-selections of text, just like TextMate. However wxRuby doesn't seem to have the function calls to support that feature. I'm wonder if there is a way to enable it or if there might be a way I could rewrite that wrapper to include that function. It seems strange that they would purposely omit that since they are seemingly pretty exhaustive on most functions calls. Any insight on this would be greatly appreciated. I'm trying to write an open source TextMate clone in Ruby and it's gonna be pretty hard without MultiSelect, I could probably hack something together but it'd be ugly. Thanks ahead of time.

• How to make a control invisible?

  - by Nakilon

  I've made several TextCtrls and Button, but currently users of my application don't want to see them. So I have to hide them temporary (for current build). Here they are: class MainFrame < Wx::Frame def initialize (parent = nil) super nil,:title=>"sometitle",:size=>[600,600] set_sizer Wx::BoxSizer.new Wx::VERTICAL @tag1 = Wx::TextCtrl.new self sizer.add_item @tag1,:flag=>Wx::RIGHT|Wx::EXPAND @tag1.set_value 'property' @tag1title = Wx::TextCtrl.new self sizer.add_item @tag1title,:flag=>Wx::RIGHT|Wx::EXPAND @tag1title.set_value 'title' @tag2 = Wx::TextCtrl.new self sizer.add_item @tag2,:flag=>Wx::RIGHT|Wx::EXPAND @tag2.set_value 'description' @tag2title = Wx::TextCtrl.new self sizer.add_item @tag2title,:flag=>Wx::RIGHT|Wx::EXPAND @tag2title.set_value '' @button_parse = Wx::Button.new self sizer.add_item @button_parse @button_parse.label = "Parse XML" evt_button @button_parse, :click_parse # ...... end # ...... end I see nothing about it in docs and Google is also not a friend for me today.

• Using a Windows Form with Ruby

  - by Gil Milow

  Is it possible to create a form on Windows using Ruby? I have a Ruby script and I would like to have an input form to ask for a user's password, then use this in the rest of my script. update: I have successfully done this with wxRuby, although it looks ugly. Shoes looks promising, I might look into that if I need to do this again..

• Ruby Canvas (GUI)

  - by Eugene

  Hi dear community! I need draw some lines/circles/rect/etc from ruby into something like canvas. I tried wxRuby and fxRuby but they are have no good examples to draw simple lines. Just tried to install qtruby on Windows and its fall cause of some number of errors. So: 1) Which API for ruby to draw on canvas I need? 2) Give me a little sample of it (full code please)? Sincerely Eugene
