[MSW] / 20. Feb 2003:

    % event add <<Banzai>>
    >> mind the lacking association with an actual event-sequence,
    >> i.e. TRUE virtual events.

[DKF] - I thought we supported virtual events without real event sequences backing them up already. In fact, I believe the core already uses quite a few of them for things like delivering modification notifications to text widgets...

MSW: If so, since when (and if so, I'll delete that point of course)?

    % info patchlevel
    8.3.3
    % event add <<Banzai>>
    wrong # args: should be "event add virtual sequence ?sequence ...?"

DKF - I think you can just use the virtual event without having to [[event add]] it first...

[EB]: Yes, no need to add, just generate:

    % info patchlevel
    8.4.1
    % event generate . <<Banzai>>
    % bind . <<Banzai>> {puts "Banzai!"}
    % event generate . <<Banzai>>
    Banzai!

MSW: aha! sorry then, feel free to delete this entry & thanks for the clarification :)

36. [FW]: An ability to set a scrollbar as disabled in Windows (usually represented as the scrollbar being "grayed out"). This is the recommended behavior for scrollbars that are not presently needed on Windows - at the moment, Tk handles this by simply making the elevator occupy the entire scrollbar.

[DKF] - This behaviour might have actually been implemented in 8.4.2 as part of fixing a bug! :^)

FW: Which bug? The one where the scrollbar locks up if you try to grab the elevator on a scrollbar that is not needed? 'Cause that happens for me.

DKF: Yes. That one.

FW: Yep, it is a general bug with Windows XP (unneeded but non-disabled scrollbars lock up when you try to manipulate their elevator), and now the disabling behavior has been implemented for all Windowses. Whee!
