This is a very interesting proof of concept, but the widget is still a long way from being a fully usable product.

On the Macintosh, I've had several problems with it, and I've had to make minor changes to get the text in the js window to show. Also, when I change the js window size by dragging it from the bottom-right corner, the scroll bar becomes detached and half of the js window becomes "see through".

I also get errors in the debug window, if I turn debug on. This happe…ns mostly when I open the Properties or Advanced Properties of, for example, an image.

I would really like to see this widget progress and wonder whether you might make faster progress if you used the code which generates forms in my Widget Maker widget. I agree with Daniel Dickison that it would be nicer to have property windows, but there is an awful lot of work in doing that, and you could start with forms and move to property windows later.

Like Daniel, I am also not convinced that More

Could you be a little more specific? How is it crashing, and what are you doing when it does? The jump will likely go away in a future version. The javascript window scrolls fine on mine, are you using Mac or PC? The javascript window is a TextArea object, so I can't take credit for the scrolling and the tabs. Thanks for the input.

I appreciate the work and the idea, but this widget crashes a lot here. Also, when dragging images, the 'jump' under the cursor, making it virtually impossible to place small images. The JS window is also not veru usefull, you can't scroll properly and the tabs are a bit big.

2 stars for the effort, but keep it up, maybe the end result will be worth it.

I assume you are asking where you enter javascript. Clicking on the "js" in the titlebar should show a javascript window. If your preferences are set to have the javascript window docked, it will just be an overlay in the main WidgetBench window. Let me know if this is not what you were asking.

Thanks,

Um. how do you add this to the script?
