DSL Ideas and Suggestions :: Dirty rdesktop.lua 'choose resolution' code
Thanks MakodFilu,
I got it and it will be v3.3RC1.
I have already found a bug in the rightmost frame. Not counting the interface is a downright ugly mess. Eventually I'll dig how to draw nice frames, clean up the magic numbers in the code to draw properly and so on, but I am more on the pragmatic side rather than the fancy graphics one, so if someone wants to reorganize the widgets I'll don't byte either.
I have cleaned, beautified, updated and greatly improved the code and widgets look and feel. Too many differences to post.
Lessons learnt:
1) I should not ashame myself with silly posts.
2) I should not ashame myself posting bad code.
3) Excuses for not doing something are no good for anyone: see point 1.
4) There is no 3rd point without a 4th.
5) Round buttons shall not be used for what a slider is worth.
6) Me think why am I talking like a caveman.
Hey, we all have to start from somewhere.
The fact that you have taken the time to learn Lua and FLtk and contribute is great. Many times, I too, want to rewrite my code and make it better. Some of my first attempts were/are still pretty crude.
But that is called learning and that is both fun and challenging. Keep up the good work.
