Changing the background of a title

Hi

a lot of panes in CAPI inherit from the TITLE-OBJECT mixin.  This makes 
it easy to change the font of the title.

I use the :title slot of a pane quite a lot, however, I'd also like to 
change the background of the title as well instead of the regular grey 
or whitish.

It there a simple way to do so?

Thanks

RE: Changing the background of a title

Try this:

(capi:contain 
	(make-instance 'capi:text-input-pane 
		:title "test" 
		:title-args '(:background :red)))

Re: Changing the background of a title

Thank you.

Almost there.  Unfortunately it looks like the title "pane" does not 
stretch for the whole width of the actual pane.  So the title 
background covers only the actual background of the title text.

Cheers

RE: Changing the background of a title

Not sure of what your construction is.
However, here is another example:

(capi:define-interface test ()
   ()
   (:panes
      (title1 capi:title-pane :text "short" :background :red
:visible-max-width nil)
      (title2 capi:title-pane :text "this is a longer title" :background
:red)
      (pane1 capi:text-input-pane)
      (pane2 capi:text-input-pane)
      )
   (:layouts
      (main capi:grid-layout
         '(title1 pane1 title2 pane2)
         :columns 2
         )))

(capi:contain (make-instance 'test))


So :visible-max-width nil is your friend here.
Cheers,
Sebastien.

Thanks a lot.  That really does it and it looks beautiful!

Re: Changing the background of a title

One more question:

Each title is printed with one character underlined (I suppose to get 
navigations effects)

How do you turn off this feature?

Thanks

RE: Changing the background of a title

Hi Marco,
use :mnemonic-text or :mnemonic-title

examples:

(capi:contain (make-instance 'capi:text-input-pane :mnemonic-title "This is
a test"))
(capi:contain (make-instance 'capi:text-input-pane :mnemonic-title "&This is
a test"))
(capi:contain (make-instance 'capi:push-button  :mnemonic-text "&Test"))
(capi:contain (make-instance 'capi:push-button  :mnemonic-text "Test"))

This is also very useful when you want to force specifics keys to be
shortcuts for the same actions across your application (ex: OK & Cancel
buttons).

Cheers,
Sebastien.
