2422.0. "Notification PM customization : Static or Dynamic?" by TAEC::HAYES (Tu quoque mi fili ! C.Hayes SVP TBG @VBE 828-6201) Wed Feb 26 1992 05:26

Hello,


I am using DECmcc T1.2.5

Could someone tell me if the following behaviour is correct or incorrect
as nothing exists in the documentation on this point :

I am using the Notification PM from the application menu .

When I execute the Customize General Notification, I get up the window.
Then, I click on the Bottom Row Button.

When I execute Apply or OK, nothing happens.
However, when I close the window and take it up again, it appears as
expected.

As an APPLY button exist in this window (with the OK button)
I would think this modification could be applied dynamically ?



Best regards

2422.1Bottom Row Buttons not implemented in EFT kitTOOK::CALLANDERMCC = My Constant CompanionWed Feb 26 1992 08:1518
    
    Hi Catherine,
    
    Sorry about some of that confusion. Anything not documented in the
    EFT book, isn't done yet. That function is now complete and when the
    update goes out you will have it.
    
    What the buttom row buttons function does, is it removes the buttons
    from the bottom of the notification window. This gives you more on
    screen realestate for displaying notifications without having to
    increase the size of the window. Any function in a button is also in
    the pull-down menus.
    
    jill
    
    (BTW: there are also a number  of other features in the notification
    update; take a look when you get it and let us know what you think.)
    
2422.2STATIC or DYNAMIC ??TAEC::HAYESTu quoque mi fili ! C.Hayes SVP @VBEWed Feb 26 1992 12:0836
    
    
    
    	Hi Jill,
    
    
    	"What the buttom row buttons function does, is it removes the  
         buttons from the bottom of the notification window." 
    
    My concern is :
    
    Should it remove the buttons DYNAMICALLY, i.e on the already active 
    window (refreshed) without having to restart the Notification PM 
    (and in this case this is not the observed behaviour).
    
    or
    
    Does it remove those buttons STATICALLY i.e next time I start
    the notification PM, the buttons will be removed as it seems to
    react now ?
                                              
        I understand this is a minor detail point but my customer
    	thinks this is confusing, if the mofification is STATIC,
        he thinks the button APPLY should not be in 
        the window but only the OK button.
       
        I explained him the same sort of behaviour is used for
    	other customize operations, but...
    
    
    		Thanks for your help

2422.3thanks for the feedbackTOOK::CALLANDERMCC = My Constant CompanionTue Mar 31 1992 16:164
    thanks for the input, it does is statically. You are modifying
    the customization of the window for the next restart. We will
    put this item on the list to be corrected.
