[comp.sys.amiga.tech] PropGadgets and Followmouse

hobie@sq.uucp (Hobie Orris) (05/28/88)

	I have tried to do a colour selector using RGB sliders.  What I 
haven't been able to figure out is how to get movement messages (not button
clicks) so I can change the colour as the knob is slid around.  I have set
REPORTMOUSE in the Flags field of the window, FOLLOWMOUSE set in the gadget
structure's Flags field, then I wait for MOUSEMOVE events.  None come in.
Did I leave something out?  Will the HorizPot field be updated for me when and
if I do get a MOUSEMOVE?  Burning questions, indeed.

The `PopColours' program (source and docs) can be found on Fish Disk #43.
It uses sliders, etc. to alter screen colors in real time and appears to
be exactly what you are seeking.  Source + docs = 21K, so is a bit much to
post here.  If you cannot find Fish #43, lemme know and I'll email you a
shar of PopColours.

There are two Palette.c's on the Fish Disks - Charlie Heath's and mine.
Mine may also be in comp.sources.amiga.
These will give you some additional implementations to examine.
