Yes.

You can also check the FOX Community Wiki site
(http://www.fifthplanet.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl). This is still a very new
site but already has a lot of useful information. Especially good is its
FAQ, one which is maintained independently of the "official" FAQ on the
FOX home page. The Wiki FAQ tends to have more code examples, etc.

Other than these, your best bet is to subscribe to the foxgui-users
mailing list and ask away. Instructions for how to subscribe are listed
on the FOX home page.

|      1) How do you lock the size of a window?

The answer depends on whether it's a top-level window (like your
application's main window, or a dialog box) or a child window (i.e. most
other widgets).

For top-level windows, you simply don't want to pass in the DECOR_RESIZE
option to the window's constructor. I think most of the example programs
distributed with FXRuby just pass in the DECOR_ALL option (which
includes DECOR_RESIZE) and that's why they're all resizeable.

For child windows, you want to use the LAYOUT_FIX_WIDTH and
LAYOUT_FIX_HEIGHT layout hints. Again, I tend to prefer layouts that
allow the child widgets to grow or shrink as needed and so these may not
show up much in the FXRuby example programs.

|      2) How do you disable the close window "X" (Or
| whatever your window manager uses) in the upper right
| corner (or where ever your window manager puts it).

Don't pass in the DECOR_CLOSE option to the window's constructor. Again,
this option is rolled into the catch-all DECOR_ALL option and that's why
it shows up in all the example programs. It's also important to note
that these decoration options (i.e. the DECOR_xxx flags) are just
*suggestions* to the window manager which it's free to ignore.

|      3) If you are using FXScrollArea or any of it's
| children, like FXTable or FXText, how do you force a
| vertical scrollbar to appear? Even, for example if
| FXText is blank or FXTable only has one row, even
| though it takes up a lage space.

Pass in the VSCROLLER_ALWAYS flag Similarly, pass in the
HSCROLLER_ALWAYS flag to force the horizontal scrollbar to always be
visible.

|      4) How do you lock the size the the fields in an
| FXTable so that the user can't change field sizes?

Don't pass in the TABLE_ROW_SIZABLE or TABLE_COL_SIZABLE flags.

|      5) Can you limit how much text is written in a
| line in FXText and force it to word-wrap at so many
| characters. (i.e. disable the horizontal scrollbar).

Yes, by passing in the TEXT_WORDWRAP flag to FXText's constructor and
then setting the number of columns at which to wrap by calling
FXText#wrapColumns=().

| P.S. On a side note, when my project plate is a little
| more empty, I'm thinking of making a FXRuby GUI-maker
| using FXRuby. Something like Glade, but leaning more
| towards VB. (You click on a button and you get a
| window where you can write your method for that event)
|  That should make life much more simple for me.

That would be cool ;)

| P.P.S Not really an FXRuby thing, but more of an
| observation of Fox itself. Redhat is now pushing for a
| more unified look for desktops. Not starting a KDE vs.
| Gnome debate, I agree with the move. Fox doesn't seem
| to be themeable (except for color) and uses a look for
| the widgets borrowed from Windows 9x. Anyone know if
| this is changing in the future? I would like to have
| my apps running with other RH8 apps (for my cutomers)
| and not have look so jarring. Any comments on this?

Support for themes is definitely planned for a future FOX release, but I
wouldn't expect it anytime soon.
