Hi,
I've just recently started trying to program in CLIM(v2.0) under
Sun OpenLook, and I'm experiencing some teething troubles that I was wondering
if anybody could help me with.
Basically I would like to know how to
a) specify exactly the coordinates of a button, textfield etc.,
without having to use "horizontally" and "vertically" functs.
b) Be able to read, from any point in the program, at any time,
the current value of a text-field, list, menu, etc.
Or to put it in context, I want my program to
put textfield A, at X1,Y1, textfield B at X2,Y2, button C, at X3,Y3,
button D at X4,Y4, etc.. When button C is pressed the current values
of A and B are passed to function F1.
I've had a look at the manual and it is not very clear how to do it. So if
anybody could help I would be most grateful.
Thanks in advance,
Fraser
