I tried to implement a save-as-ftp button in Rebol embedded editor. Implementation of the save-as-button is this:
save-as-ftp: has [file-content][
file-content: t1/text
prefs-file: rejoin [_self-path %ftp.preferences.txt]
either exists? prefs-file [
prefs-ftp: construct load prefs-file; see article application configuration file
user: prefs-ftp/user
password: prefs-ftp/password
server-path: prefs-ftp/server-path
][
user: ask "User: "
password: ask/hide "Password: "
server-path: ask "Server-Path: "
]
view ftp-view: layout [
origin 10x10 space 8x4
style btn btn 140
ftp-field: text bold "" 140 center
pad 0x4
btn-enter 140 "Save" #"s" [hide-popup result: ftp-field/text]
btn red + 50 "Quit - No Save" [hide-popup quit-now]
]
file-target: result
ftp-target: rejoin [ftp:// user ":" password "#" server-path file-target]
write ftp-target file-content
print ["uploaded" file-target "to" rejoin [ftp:// "XXXXXXX" ":" "XXXXXXX" "#" server-path]]
true
]
My problem is with view ftp-view : I cannot even type in ftp-field text box as the popup window loses focus.
hide-popup is used to close a modal window.
A modal window is opened by using 'inform
I don't see any modal windows here.
Oh .. this is a button or something that you are attaching to the rebol editor?
I modified mine some years ago to edit ftp files ... I'll have to see if I can find what I did.

I don't understand: why is close sent immediately: that's not what I want and I would expect it to be sent when I click on Window close
query-on-close: func[face event][
print "query-on-close"
remove-event-func :query-on-close
RETURN event
]
view layout [
do [ insert-event-func :query-on-close ]
]
rebol []
query-on-close: func [face event][
prin event/type prin " "
either 'close = event/type [
print "^/query-on-close handler now removed. Next close will now close this window"
remove-event-func :f
return none
][
RETURN event
]
]
f: insert-event-func :query-on-close
view layout [
title "Test screen"
]
As written the first event you receive will print the message, and then remove the handler. You need to test specifically for the CLOSE event.
I am trying following code where user enters 2 numbers and on clicking calculate button, answer should be shown. There are also buttons for clearing fields and for exiting.
REBOL[]
fields: [f-ht f-wt ans]
reset-fields: does [
unfocus
f-ht/text: " " ; Changing this to "ENTER NUMBER HERE" does not help
f-wt/text: " "
focus f-ht
]
oncalc: does [
ans/text: (to integer! f-wt/text) / ((100 * to integer! f-ht/text) * (100 * to integer! f-ht/text))
show fields
]
lo: layout [
style tx label 200x24 center
style fld field 200x24 center
style btn button 200x24 center
tx "First Number:"
f-ht: fld
tx "Second Number:"
f-wt: fld
btn "Calculate" [oncalc]
ans: tx "Answer"
btn "Clear" [reset-fields show fields] ; NOT WORKING- NOTHING HAPPENS
btn "Exit" escape [unview/only lo]
]
reset-fields
view center-face lo
The GUI is showing all right. However, there are following problems:
On clear button clicking, nothing is happening.
There are no changes on GUI and no errors are being reported. Where is the problem and how can this be solved? Thanks for your help.
Clear the fields instead of setting to new strings
reset-fields: does [
unfocus
clear f-ht/text
clear f-wt/text
focus f-ht
]
Using the REBOL/View 2.7.8 Core, I would like to prepare a view layout beforehand by automatically assigning words to various layout items, as in the following example.
Instead of
prepared-view: [across
cb1: check
label "Checkbox 1"
cb2: check
label "Checkbox 2"
cb3: check
label "Checkbox 3"
cb4: check
label "Checkbox 4"
]
view layout prepared-view
I would thus like the words cb1 thru cb5 to be created automatically, e.g.:
prepared-view2: [ across ]
for i 1 4 1 [
cbi: join "cb" i
cbi: join cbi ":"
cbi: join cbi " check"
append prepared-view2 to-block cbi
append prepared-view2 [
label ]
append prepared-view2 to-string join "Checkbox " i
]
view layout prepared-view2
However, while difference prepared-view prepared-view2 shows no differences in the block being parsed (== []), the second script leads to an error:
** Script Error: cb1 word has no context
** Where: forever
** Near: new/var: bind to-word :var :var
I've spent hours trying to understand why, and I think somehow the new words need to be bound to the specific context, but I have not yet found any solution to the problem.
What do I need to do?
bind prepared-view2 'view
view layout prepared-view2
creates the correct bindings.
And here's another way to dynamically create layouts
>> l: [ across ]
== [across]
>> append l to-set-word 'check
== [across check:]
>> append l 'check
== [across check: check]
>> append l "test"
== [across check: check "test"]
>> view layout l
And then you can use loops to create different variables to add to your layout.
When you use TO-BLOCK to convert a string to a block, that's a low-level operation that doesn't go through the "ordinary" binding to "default" contexts. All words will be unbound:
>> x: 10
== 10
>> code: to-block "print [x]"
== [print [x]]
>> do code
** Script Error: print word has no context
** Where: halt-view
** Near: print [x]
So when you want to build code from raw strings at runtime whose lookups will work, one option is to use LOAD and it will do something default-ish, and that might work for some code (the loader is how the bindings were made for the code you're running that came from source):
>> x: 10
== 10
>> code: load "print [x]"
== [print [x]]
>> do code
10
Or you can name the contexts/objects explicitly (or by way of an exemplar word bound into that context) and use BIND.
Followed the below steps to save a file in desired location:
Step1: Save As window getting opened(with the default downloads location, with file name as DOC)
Step2: entering the file name as "D:\temp\sample.pdf" (which is getting entered in the edit bar)
Step3: clicking the save button (button clicked, file downloaded in the default location rather than the "D:\temp" location)
I have created an .exe with the below .au3 script
WinWait("[CLASS:#32770]","",10)
Sleep(2000)
ControlSetText("Save As", "", "Edit1", $CmdLine[1])
Sleep(5000)
ControlClick("Save As", "", "Button1");
Sleep(5000)
On clicking save, it is getting saved in the default location rather than the specified location.
The below code, executing the script.
IO.popen('autoit_script.exe D:\temp') #Ruby Code
Is there a way to sort it out?
It depends on the software you are trying to automate but usually this happens because the software is not recognizing there is a change in the file save path box. The problem is in how ControlSetText works. Try using ControlSend with some error checking to make sure the file path you are try to set is getting put in right. Sometimes you have to play with a few different variations to see what works with the software you are automating. Here are two examples you can try:
Example one:
WinWait("[CLASS:#32770]", "", 10)
If Not #error Then ;make sure the window was found
$hWin = WinGetHandle("[CLASS:#32770]") ;get window handle
ControlSetText($hWin, "", "Edit1", $CmdLine[1]) ;set text
ControlFocus($hWin, "", "Edit1") ;just to make sure we have focus
ControlSend($hWin, "", "Edit1", "{ENTER}")) ;should work like click button 1 but you will have to check
;better then a sleep
$hTimer = TimerInit() ; Begin the timer and store the handle in a variable.
Do
Until WinExists($hWin) = 0 Or TimerDiff($hTimer) >= 10000
EndIf
Example two:
WinWait("[CLASS:#32770]", "", 10)
If Not #error Then ;make sure the window was found
$hWin = WinGetHandle("[CLASS:#32770]") ;get window handle
While 1
ControlSetText($hWin, "", "Edit1", "") ;just makes sure there is no text in the control text
ControlFocus($hWin, "", "Edit1") ;just to make sure we have focus
ControlSend($hWin, "", "Edit1", $CmdLine[1])) ;set text using ControlSend
If ControlGetText($hWin, "", "Edit1") = $CmdLine[1] Then ExitLoop ;makes sure that the control got ALL of the text before exiting loop
WEnd
ControlClick($hWin, "", "Button1");
;better then a sleep
$hTimer = TimerInit() ; Begin the timer and store the handle in a variable.
Do
Until WinExists($hWin) = 0 Or TimerDiff($hTimer) >= 10000
EndIf

I currently trying to redo a small app I made in Delphi.
This application displays a background image among n and a text among n, but I cannot change the image or the text, the change of image and text is done by the button >>.
This is the simplified code without the random part because I found out about it:
Rebol[
Title: "You have a message !"
Version: 1.0.0
Needs: [1.2.115]
]
the-imag1: load %"/C/MyFile/Cours CD/Affiche/Images/Vague9.jpg"
the-imag2: load %"/C/MyFile/Cours CD/Affiche/Images/Vague3.jpg"
the-image: the-imag1
text1: "Your banner text here"
view xx1: layout [
size the-image/size
b1: backdrop the-image
at b1/offset + 110x120
box 350x150 font-size 20 font-color black [align: 'center] text1
at b1/offset + 530x370
btn ">>" [the-image: the-imag2 ; new image
text1: "Hello" ; new text
show xx1] effect [multiply 90]
]
You are redefining the face, not just the content. Just redefine the field you need. Try this:
Rebol[
Title: "You have a message !"
Version: 1.0.0
Needs: [1.2.115]
]
the-imag1: load %"/C/MyFile/Cours CD/Affiche/Images/Vague9.jpg"
the-imag2: load %"/C/MyFile/Cours CD/Affiche/Images/Vague3.jpg"
the-image: the-imag1
text1: "Your banner text here"
view xx1: layout [
size the-image/size
b1: backdrop the-image
at b1/offset + 110x120
t1: text text1
at b1/offset + 530x370
btn ">>" [
b1/image: the-imag2 ; new image
t1/text: "Hello" ; new text
show xx1
] effect [multiply 90]
]
