Toggling Class Status in Another Window
|
Hi, I have a series of classes in a side window from the main one. I want to be able to enable and disable these classes (in the side window) from the main window. The normal
etc does not work from the main window, because it looks for the class with Classname within the main window.
Are ideas on getting this to work? Thanks in advance! |

That did the trick. It did, however, steal the focus away from the main window and put it on the side window.
In order to restore focus to the main window, I did:
SideWindow:#CLASS Classname 1; MainWindow:#NOOP
Thanks for the help! |

I'm not sure ( not at home so can't test) but I think if you prefix the the whole thing which a colon it doesn't take focus away;
ala
| Code: |
| :windowname:#CLASS Classname 1 |
EDIT:sure enough apparently it does |

Hmm. That works for me with normal text, but not with commands:
Side goes, "blah".
Main goes, "blah".
That doesn't make sense. Ideas? |

Use #SAY. #ECHO goes to the currently active window (usually the main window), #SAY and #SHOW go where you tell it to.
