MorphOS: Alpha-Version von MUI 4
Stefan Stuntz has released an alpha version of MUI 4.0. The author describes this version as "not ready for a while yet" and speaks of "various rough edges."
Changes in this version:
For users:
- All mui programs react in realtime on prefs changes.
- New and much improved background & frame requesters.
- New color requester with many options, fancy triangle, old-fashioned
wheel, linked gradients, etc.
- New image browser.
- Complete asl replacement, fancy file & font requesters.
- New pubscreen manager with skin preview.
- Dont forget to try context menus on all new elements!
- ...
For programmers:
- List class changed completely (subclass of group now), has nice columns, handles scrollbars etc by itself, no more ugly listview->list construct needed. this "list being subclass of group" might be the main reason for incompatibilities, especially with the way older apps use the notify system. Listview.mui is obsolete and mainly an empty shell now.
- MUI finally has a proper multiline text entry class: Textinput.mcc was
built in as "String.mui". an empty Textinput.mcc is supplied as well to
map older apps to the new internal string class. Support in the main
prefs program is still missing, use Textinput.mcp for now.
- You can embed a filerequester if you like, use "Filepanel.mui" and
control with the usual ASLFR_ tags.
- New class for easy sub-process handling.
- ...
The corresponding developer documents (Autodocs) are included in the archive.
