Re: Window cycling test, curious results

Wow, them's some wild button's you got there, Fer! Nice app. I'm no clearer about why my Use win #next loop doesn't show the windows I expect. Sure, I expect 'the unexpected' so to speak, like the Program Manager (yeah, I know that one's the desktop) but among the list I expect to see the names of the windows I'm currently using. Instead I got output of a lot of '' for the $$win.text. It's not something I need to solve just now, just a bit of a curiosity to me. I might have to rip off your button-design technique. What a great idea making them images and I guess you're using the Normal-Selected option on the mouseover (haven't really studied it yet). There are so many different ways to do things like that in gui4cli. On the program I'm writing at the moment I just decided I'd try having xI
 cons instead of buttons on toolbars, and that's turned out rather nice. Thanks. John.
