Hi All,

The documentation is (perhaps) the most 'weak' thing on MiniGUI library.

There is a reason for that:

- 3 Window types
- 34 Controls
- 133 Properties
- 29 events
- 26 methods
- 56 Functions
- 33 Commands
- And LOTS of other things

As you can imagine it is very time consuming to create a professional grade reference for all library elements.

I've decided to invest all of my available time to complete the documentation, at least, in its basic form, and I've finished it.

I'll include in the next HMG full release.

Meanwhile, I'm attaching it to this message for testing.

Please, If you find some missing or erroneous thing, let me know to correct it prior the release.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Roberto.

Excelente Roberto,
muchas gracias.

Thanks a lot Roberto!

We really need it

If I am not wrong, I found \HMG\DOC folder already contains some documentation.

I was trying to find some information about GetTextWidth() function. But, I didn't find it in my first search.

There is a ".chm" help for hmg, created by Rathinagiri (which is really helpful to me). So, can we expect your documentation will be merged with Rathi's chm file?

With best regards.

Yes, but it was not finished.

This is an internal function (it returns the size in pixels of a string).

It requires low level knowledge to be used, since you must pass it the font handle besides the string.

Thank´s master Roberto for this documentation.

I believe that was for sure hard work. Thank´s a lot

When the documentation be completely finished and revised it could be easily converted to any format (chm, pdf, etc).

Roberto.

And yes. It could easily merged, since Rathinagiri had left blanks for non documented things

I hope that he can do that soon.

Roberto.

Roberto,

Thank you very much.

Yes, the previous documentation was semi-finished. And now it is very good

Actually, I saw some reference of GetTextWidth() function in Rathinagiri's Grid2Print utility and tried to find it out in the help. Thank you very much for the information about this function. Sorry to bother you. I didn't know it's a low level function.

Documentation is a very hard work, but it is very essential both for novice user (like me) and experienced user.

Thank you again for such "hard work" for us

With best regards.
