I will have to give it a try for real, but Fallthrough by it's name suggests inheritance is lost.

I wish I discovered the strength that using value pairs brought to the mui.Set function much sooner as this is a nifty little feature. Whilst using this I raised an eyebrow over the use of Whitespace and the splitting of code in general over multiple lines, given this code works compiles and runs fi...

@JPV, the contains of the msg object will contain the properties of the final expression.

Question for Thore really I suppose, I guess the answer might be 'it's historical'. I've always wondered why the property Sleep of the Application class is stackable? How can this behaviour be useful? In fact I created my own base function in Hollywood to prevent the stacking nature of this property...

The new FallThrough() statement enables fall through it doesn't exhibit the same behaviour I am discussing. I am looking for "OR' logic.

msg.id would not contain a matching expression, just the last one it finds.

I wish this DRY code was possible with the Switch-Case statement: Switch msg.id Case "listtree-draganddrop" Case "listtree-sorthook" Case "pageview-pagemode" Case "group-orientation" layout:SaveUserData( MidStr(msg.id,0, FindStr(msg.id,"-"))) EndSwit...

If the optional argument casesen is set to False, the strings do not have to match in case. The optional encoding par...

(OP Edit time elapsed: code corrections) Attempting to make the following code valid: ;base:FuncOnField(msg.id,"contents","LowerStr") Function base:FuncOnField(obj, field, func) mui.Set(obj.id, field, func(obj.triggervalue)) EndFunction I am trying to avoid the verbose old skool ...

Hi Andreas, I am trying to dramatically reduce lines of code in my program and I would like to know if it is possible to perform string interpolation in Hollywood? Take the following code which I am attempting to make valid: Function base:FuncOnField(id, field, func) mui.Set(id, mui.Get(id, field), ...

Specifies a context sensitive popup menu for the current object. For MUI, popup menus are nothing else but standard intuition menus, so you must specify the id of a MUI menustrip object here. Whenever the user hits the RMB and the mouse is above the parent object, MUI will present the popup menu in...
