jwmickelson Posted August 14, 2001 Posted August 14, 2001 I've played with the trial version of 5.5. and I have one important question. I saw that one of the primary claims to fame for the new version was the ability to have resizable and positionable message windows when the Show Message script step is used. When I used the Trail version I found that when I, as the developer, entered a 6 line message for example, when the user got the message it still defaulted to the old/stupid 4 line message window. Whats worse was there was NO notification that there was more text that was not being displayed. Now, it's true if the user 'knew' there was more text they could resize the window and viola the message would appear in it's entirety, but we all know that relying upon the user to "know" that they should do this is not realistic. I would have expected the message window to appear displaying all the text entered by the developer. Please, tell me I'm wrong and it was just a Trial version issue and the full version impliments this feature as it should have! Thanks, Jonathan
Vaughan Posted August 14, 2001 Posted August 14, 2001 I know that FMP5.5 has resizable *dialogs* that remember their previous size and position. But we're talking the Define Fields and define Scripts dialog boxes, not Show Message. I could be wrong.
