Re: Wayland and gambas

if I read all that right it sounds like they are saying "tough luck" change to accommodate us. Almost all of my programs will control window placement and it is important. I agree they should think of legacy or grandfathering things but they do not care. Maybe they need a "petition&qu...

Re: Could we PLEASE get implemented the ability to store project on a mounted location?

I think you misunderstood my response. As it happens, I got the fstab working properly. But the issue would still be there if I had not.

I doubt it's possible. you'd need an API into firefox to get it's internal data like that. It does not seem to have one , DBus has an OpenURL method but that's about it. there's some extensions that might help but that'd be "installing something" maybe you could monitor the connection sta...

Inquire firefox

I have been looking for this unsuccessfully for a while. what I am attempting to do is monitor firefox and know what it is displaying.

Re: Printing to a Zebra LAN Printer

I have used cups to send printer data in my POS application. I am sure you can go direct to port but you are limiting yourself to particular printers that way. The problem with zebra (having worked with their stuff) is that they do not have any linux support.

Re: Allow a user to move a control and right click

{Solved} Allow a user to move a control and right click

I have 2 questions...

1.. is it possible to allow a user to drag a control around my program screen and allow the control to be moved there?

2.. If I put a right click or context menu on a group of controls how can I tell which control spawned the right click menu?
