I need a script that acts as a shortcut for:
making a selection
setting the selection property "Fixed" to value "Aspect ratio"
(that is: proportions of selection should be fixed)
The following line does the selection part:
gimp.pdb.gimp_rect_select(img,20,20,80,80,2,0,0)
But I couldn't find the way to set the selection properties and so it just keep the properties of the last selection done.
Is there a way to accomplish this?
No you can't, because by design the scripts cannot interfere with the UI (and the "Fixed" setting is just a help for us humans, a script can compute this).
But, if what you want to do it have a quick way to make a specific selection, then use the diskette icon at the bottom to save the Tool settings with a name (and, later, the folder icon, to restore it).

In TlistView Dynamic appearance I added a few object appearanced to the item.
I have a TextObjectAppearence and an ImageObjectAppearence.
I want to set the image to be a background for the text meaning the text should be on top of the image.
I tried right-clicking on the image object and selecting SendToBack but it doesn't seem to work.
At run-time, there's also not any way to call ListItemImage.sendtoback etc.
what is the right way of doing it?
I've attached a screenshot of the two items overlapping...
The only way I found is to open fmx file in text mode and to move the various objects in the order needed (first is the deeper)
In a Firemonkey project, I have a TListBox with numerous items. Depending on the state of any given item, I intend to show the Detail as either red or white (on a black background). Of course I need to use the styles to do this.
I right-click one of the TListBoxItem controls and choose "Edit Custom Style...". It's my understanding that it's supposed to produce a new copy of whatever the current style lookup is just for this one control. In my case, I had already set it to listboxitemrightdetail prior to trying to customize it. What I would expect is that when I make a change to the font color in this style and "Apply and Close", that one single list box item should get that change.
However, instead of that one, ALL of the items in this list box got that change. The change I made actually modified the listboxitemrightdetail rather than producing a copy of it just for that one control.
In the end, I intend to have two style lookups, for example listboxitemreddetail and listboxitemwhitedetail which I can toggle on each list item in runtime.
What am I doing wrong, and what's the appropriate way to duplicate a style lookup to have two different versions?
What I'm trying to do is simple: bring a label in front of an image within a subview.
But all of the options for arranging are disabled/un-selectable when my label is selected. I find this happens often.
What could be the reason that I'm almost never allowed to change the z-axis of my objects in the Arrange menu? Is it a better practice to avoid this feature and set the order of views programmatically?
It can depend on how you have selected the label (similar to how the label can only be moved with the keyboard when selected in some ways).
A simple alternative is to look at the list of view in the pane on the left and to drag the views up and down to change the order.
It happens sometimes. In that situation, click the view or image you want to send back then you will see little square box at the edges of image from which you can re size your image, Just click on it once and then go to Editor > Arrange > Choose option according your need.
If I set mycoolbar.fixedorder to true,only the grip on the first band will be hidden.
Well,If you use Delphi 7 to create an VCL Forms application,then put a coolbar on it and create 3 coolbans to hold other controls,only the grip and the top coolbands can be hidden by setting mycoolbar.fixedorder:=true.
I've uploaded a picture to make things clear.
You probably got a FixedOrder property wrong. The fixed property does not allow bands to be rearranged if set to True.
Setting up property of CoolBar to True keep user from changing the bands order at runtime, but the user can still move and resize the bands. I can actually give you advice what you can do, but the actual solution for your problem, well, you will have to wait for another answer.
My advice is to use three CoolBars in a row and setting their "FixedOrder" property to True and BandBorderStyle to bsNone. That way the grip will be hidden on all of them.
About the property, it's not a bug of IDE, it is the actual preference of the property.
I was wondering, if it is somehow possible to add a TextBox in the Application Bar area (the same way the Internet Explorer does), but I didn't find any information source about this. Have you any idea, how to accomplish this task?
You will not be able to add UIElements inside ApplicationBar as it is not derived from UIElement.
Alternatively, you can try adding a Grid at the bottom of the screen and color it similar to the ApplicationBar. Then add a TextBlock inside the Grid. This is just a workaround and not recommended as it is not according to the standards.
