[net.micro.mac] Help-- Proble with RMAKER

abbasb@orstcs.UUCP (abbasb) (11/02/85)

I am having a great deal of difficulty to get the Rmaker to work for my
application.  The problem is when I run my resource file I do not get
any error but what happens is the rmaker changes the definition of
some of the resources randomly.  It specially happens around my UserItem
dialog controls.

I could not figure out how I can fix this problem.  I hate to redo the whole
thing by writing a resources creation routine.  It defeats the purpose
of resources if I do so. 

Have you had similar problems? and would you please tell me how
to get aroound it.  I am using the Rmaker which comes with MegaMax
version 2.1

Is Apple out there listening? Maybe you have some solution?

Thanks a lot for any helps.

Last I looked, UserItems were *not* supported by RMaker.  I too had a
similar problem with UserItems in RMaker.  Having MDS I just wrote it
in ASM and patched it in with ResEdit.  The reason I didn't use
ResEdit to do it totally is I don't like the way the new ResEdit
handles Dialogs.  There are times I want to add DLOG and DITL items
textually (and not graphically) and those  capabilities have vanished
with the new versions of ResEdit :-(.
