History of changes since Stdemo Player 1.0
1. The amount of text you can place into the text box
depends on the current display mode ( VGA, SVGA,
etc. ) and fonts supported by your current display
driver. This creates a problem: the text you placed
into the box might not fit when you run your demo on
a different system. In order to make sure, that it
will not happen, Stdemo Player checks if the whole
text fits into the box, and if not - it is trying to
reduce the font size, until the whole text fits. If
the system doesn't have a small enough font - the
scroll bar will be added to the text field, so that
user can read the whole text by scrolling it.
2. I found and fixed several places where some "housekeeping"
has not been properly done: some properties, assigned to
some windows were not deleted, and something else, I already
forgot what exactly.
3. :O command now allows to use absolute coordinates instead
of virtual. It means that if absolute coordinates are used,
all subsequent coordinates will be treated "as is", without
adjusting them to the current virtual screen/window size.
4. :< command allows to find and activate already running
application.
5. :+X command allows to set the special timer which will affect
interaction breakes (TEXT, MENU and INPUT). Setting the value
of this timer somewhere in a script means that for all subsequent
communication breaks (dialog boxes) the "continue" button
will be "pressed" automatically after X seconds since
this dialog box was initially shown. :+0 disables this feature.
6. :R command disables/enables 3-D effect for interaction breaks.
7. :X command disables/enables/hides/shows the "Stop" button on
interaction breaks.
8. :Y command disables/enables/hides/shows the "Continue" button on
interaction breaks.
9. :F command allows to set the minimal font (in point sizes)
to be used when all text doesn't fit into a text box. If it
is impossible to fit all text using the font bigger than
minimal - the defaul font will be used with the scrollbar
enabled. (Default is :F8).
10. :b command allows to change the background color for text,
menu and input fields (default is blue).
11. :f command allows to change the foreground color for text,
menu and input fields (default is black).
12. :< command has been extended and now allows to find already running
application and hide or destroy it.
13. Script will jump to the special label "__STOP__" when STOP button
pressed on any interaction break box. If there is no such label in
the script - STOP will cause just usual termination.
14. :Wx command delays script execution for x seconds.
15. :A, :U and :~ commands allow to create scheduled events.
16. :Z command terminates script execution.
17. :V command allows to branch execution of a script depending on a current
video resolution.
18. :c command allows to disable the default check on active window
after the :( command.
19. :< command now allows to find the window using "partial" caption string,
i.e. if the last symbol of the search string is "*" - any window with
the caption which matches the "wildcarded" search string fits the search
condition.
20. :? command allows to branch the script execution based on a condition
of window existance.
21. :d command allows to set the default font (in point sizes)
to be used in all text boxes. (StDemo's default is :d8).
