Wimp behaviour when resizing windows

Hmm, Stuart beat me. Spent too long long at the Arthur PRM and marveling at how much hasn’t changed!

As for the use of “TASK”, quick whip through the online docs suggests:

CloseDown (R1, if not paged in (module task))
DragBox (R2 for giving flags in R3)
ForceRedraw (R1 extended for title bar redraw)
GetWindowState (R2 nested Wimp version)
OpenWindow (R2 nested Wimp version)
PlotIcon (a mess, see nemo’s post above)

But you helpfully elaborate; I tend to be overly terse.

Grr.

Also add to your paltry scrawls

• Wimp_GetCaretPosition (in two different flaming registers)
• Wimp_SetCaretPosition (very much ditto)
• Wimp_GetWindowInfo (nesting)
• Wimp_CloseWindow (nesting)

Always do. It’s what makes me so very popular.

Hmmm. I’ve often been asked whether I had ever considered being diplomatic.
To which the answer is “Yes”, because it’s good to consider options. For the appropriate length of time.

“Do you have to be so rude?!”

“No. I choose to in your case.”
