01:07 AM flav0r: yeah JST XH
01:17 AM rue_mohr: arg, I'm so close!!!!!
01:17 AM rue_mohr: apparently when motif layout manager #1 does its positioning, it doesn't set the numbers for layout manager #2 to feed off
01:30 AM flav0r: CAN YOU FEEL IT ?????
01:33 AM rue_mohr: cut me off now!
01:33 AM rue_mohr: I need to get sleep for work tommorow!!!!!
01:33 AM rue_mohr: (but arg)
01:33 AM rue_mohr: I have two rowcol widgets, and I need to get their contents vert. aligned
01:33 AM rue_mohr: they can do that on their own, but they REALLY SUCK at it
01:34 AM rue_mohr: aka, they wont take an items/line limit and they wont resize in the dimension their not building in
01:34 AM rue_mohr: its just broken
01:35 AM flav0r: dude
01:35 AM flav0r: deal with it TOMORROW !
01:45 AM * polprog sneaks in
01:45 AM polprog: check if motif has some sort of a grid layout option
01:46 AM polprog: but get some sleep first :v
01:52 AM rue_mohr2: yes, but then I'd have to write position managers
01:52 AM rue_mohr2: and I'm trying to avoid that

07:41 PM rue_mohr: did z drill his finger?
08:18 PM rue_mohr: well, damnit
08:18 PM rue_mohr: I think I have to use a bulliten board for this
08:18 PM rue_mohr: meaning I ahve to calc all the positioning myself
08:20 PM rue_mohr: using motif is just one step away from implementing my own gui anyhow
08:21 PM rue_mohr: the digression is killing me
08:21 PM Tom_L: naw just slowing ya down
08:21 PM rue_mohr: so, to write my cam program I need to implement a list of numberif params to enter, to do that I had to make my own filter for a text entry field, and to lay them out I have to implement my own layout manager
08:42 PM Tom_L: rue_mohr you _did_ take on quite a project ya know
09:10 PM rue_mohr: a cam program?
09:10 PM rue_mohr: no, the gui library just sucks
09:10 PM rue_mohr: 98% of the code I been fighting is just gui stuff
09:11 PM rue_mohr: I been at it, what 3 weeks?
09:11 PM rue_mohr: well 2 days has been nc generator coding
09:12 PM Tom_L: oh
09:13 PM Tom_L: wrong GUI lib?
09:13 PM rue_mohr: no, it just sucks
09:13 PM rue_mohr: ;)

09:13 PM rue_mohr: I thought you knew
09:13 PM Tom_L: not his keeper
09:14 PM rue_mohr: wait, didn't he say he was going away for a bit?
09:14 PM rue_mohr: I'm sure he did
09:14 PM Tom_L: i didn't catch that
09:14 PM Tom_L: gotta go for a while
09:14 PM rue_mohr: with all the jokes about me not calling the cops?

09:14 PM Tom_L: heh
09:14 PM rue_mohr: l8tr then!
