Widget.About

Does it work?

Wednesday, October 12, 2005 by rabidrobot | Discussion: DesktopX

I'd like to put a button on my gadget-to-be that will bring up the about box. I thought Widget.About was the way to do this, but it does not seem to work. Widget.Close and Widget.Minimize both work as one would expect, but not Widget.About.

When a button is set to Widget.About on LButtonUp it will return an error when clicked if running as an object in builder. When running as a widget, it does nothing.

Widget.Close and Widget.Minimize do nothing when running as an object, but work when running as a widget.

What gives? How do you use Widget.About?

Right on. I never know if it's something that needs to be fixed or if I'm doing/using it wrong!
