Hi Kev,

I know your email is a little bit dodgey so posted here too...

The Mixed Gui doesn't appear to work too well. Cannot get the keyboard or menu to work in mixed mode...

Any thoughts?


Kev(Posted 2004) [#3]
Boiled Sweets, yes im aware theres problems with mixed 3d/gui events.

ive not attemped to fix these while most of my spare time being used on the new version that works under debug mode this fixes all events.

a possable fix for these missing events might be to setup a type then add the winproc events to it, process the event from the type and delete it. WinProcReturn bank contains the winproc data.

let me know how you get on, like i said it would be a waste of my time to fix this when ive work to do on the fixed hooked version.

Erm so are you saying that the new unreleased version works 100% in debug mode and you are trying to get it working 100% in release mode at the moment?

If so I;ll wait till you have finished. Please let me know.


Kev(Posted 2004) [#5]
Boiled Sweets, the new unreleased version works 100% in debug mode and release mode.

im rewriting to handle the events better, im using the types for holding events and removing them after there processed. im also working on the docs.
