[MacPerl] Panes

[Philippe de Rochambeau <pr1@club-internet.fr>]

Matthias,

I have looked at FontList.t, Windows.pm, and Pane.pm and still cannot
figure out how to use panes (although I more or less understand what
they are):

- do panes get automatically created whenever you create MacWindows
(i.e., is a MacWindow with nothing in it a pane?) or are panes different
from windows?

- do panes get automatically created whenever you create window
controls?

- since controls have scripts attached to them, what is the use of
creating a pane attached to a control?

- what are panes used for other than defining a movie controller's
location (as in PlayMacMovie.t)?

- why won't Shuck read Pane.pm?

- why doesn't "$mypane = new Pane($mywin);" work?

- how do you defined a pane's location (e.g. $pane = new Pane(0, 0, 100,
100))?

- could you please provide us with a simple example of how to create a
pane and handle its events? You suggested looking at FontList.t.
However, the word 'pane' does not even appear once in that script
(although lists are sort of panes).

Many thanks.
