Well, to get straight to the point, i've made an lsbox containing the setup panel for the display, my plan was to have a small triangle button at the bottom (pagedown.bmp), to do a [!ShortcutGroupShow #x] [!shortcutgrouphide #x] style thing so clicking the button would go to the second page, dispbg.bmp is the background pic for the first page, and dispbg2.bmp is the second bg pic respectivly, i've torn out the buttons from the below code, but left the background pics and page switch button..

when i try this, no matter how i position the layers, hoving over the normal background switches to the second page then back again when i stop. any ideas guys?

*Shortcut "Switch page" 78 88 "$ThemeDir$box\pagedown.bmp" "$ThemeDir$box\pagedownb.bmp" .none #9 !execute [!ShortcutGroupHide #9] [!ShortcutGroupShow #1]
*Shortcut "" 0 0 "$ThemeDir$box\dispbg.bmp" "$ThemeDir$box\dispbg2.bmp" .none #9 !none

You've got which I believe should be

Note the removal of #

I don't know if this could be the culprit here, but it's worth a shot, innit.

btw, do you know whether it's possible to extract icons and use them as shortcuts with lsbox? I've tried things, but it didn't work.

hmm, cant fix it

if someone feels like giving it a go.

the file is isotanium\box\disp.box

the shortcut group numbers used are 7 and 8, the rest are used up in step.rc

anyone willing to help will earn themself a place in the about window (not amazing, but better then nothing)

thanks guys :)

TucknDar - i've never tried that before, i'll have a sniff around and see if i can do it

I didn't actually look at the file you said, but this is probably the problem:

See? dispbg.bmp is the normal bmp, while is the hovering one, and that means that whenever you hover over dispbg.bmp, you WILL see dispbg2.bmp.

From what I understood of your problem, this would be the problem.

You need two separate shortcuts to do what you want, ie.:

and then the triangle-button would be like this:

You might also wanna make another pagedowngroup for the second page, to do the opposite, but I'll leave that to you ;)

TucknDar: try .extract for the icon thingy

yeah, I've tried that.. I'll do it again, and maybe it was just a stupid mistype, like most of the supposed "feature-limits" are ;)

hmm, i tried how you said and it didnt work :/
for some stupid reason it just wont hide the buggers :/

odd... is it still showing dispbg2.bmp when hovering? Try explaining it one more time, maybe I'm just thick ;)

ok, I'm taking at look at disp.box and the relevant images...

It looks to me like pagedown.bmp doesn't stay on top of dispbgx.bmp, which means that by clicking it, you're actually clicking the background, if you understand what I mean. Maybe it would work if you make the triangle-area of dispbgx.bmp magic pink. I'm not sure, but I think that this will help in keeping pagedown.bmp "on top" so to speak.

ps. by looking at the tooltip while hovering over the triangle, you'll easily find out whether it is actually showing through or not.

try !Execute [!LSBoxGroupShow 9] [!LSBoxGroupHide 1]
