I posted a message earlier in the week asking about Mutual Exclusion of Boolean Gadgets, and I have received several letters from other users out there (thank guys, for the input!!). Most of those people didn't or couldn't make this "mutual exclusion of gadgets" work.. I know that the old RKM's say that this field in the Gadget structure is ignored, but according to the Workbench 1.3 Assembly Include headers, it makes it sound as if this feature is now working in 1.3! I'm basically asking if this is the case, and if so, how the heck can I get it to work?? Thanks in advance.. =============================================================================== I Thought So...

I believe that the "intro" message that is posted everyonce in a while tells you how to do it. The answer is documented in the 1.2 WB Enhancer manual. Time for posting an "intro" again? -- Marco Papa 'Doc' -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= uucp:...!pollux!papa BIX:papa ARPAnet:pollux!papa@oberon.usc.edu "There's Alpha, Beta, Gamma and Diga!" -- Leo Schwab [quoting Rick Unland] -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

Intuition was basically unchanged for V1.3. Thus the same rules apply for V1.3 as were in effect for V1.2. The V1.2 Enhancer Manual offers a method of managing mutually-excluded gadgets yourself. Briefly, remove the boolean gadget from the window/requester [RemoveGadget() or RemoveGList()], set or clear (as necessary) the gadget's SELECTED flag, add the gadget back to the window/requester [AddGadget() or AddGList()], and, finally, refresh [RefreshGadgets() or RefreshGList()]. A warning from the Enhancer: It is strongly recommended that you play these games only with Boolean gadgets rendered with images and highlighted by complement mode rendering. Further, the Activation Type should be GADGIMMEDIATE (and not RELVERIFY, nor TOGGLESELECT) with your state changes executed upon receiving the GADGETDOWN message. -- Eric Cotton Commodore-Amiga (215) 431-9100 1200 Wilson Drive {uunet|pyramid|rutgers}!cbmvax!eric West Chester, PA 19380 "I don't find this stuff amusing anymore."

Ooppss!!! I goofed! I think that was the ONLY manual that I didn't look in to find answers! I just now turned to page 59 of the 1.2 Enhancer book and saw what you were talking about! you'll have to pardon my numbskull-osciety (:->) =============================================================================== I Thought So...
