Hey Robert, thanks for sharing. The second program worked just fine for me, while the first one had some glitches (possibly a clipping bug in McCLIM). Two hints: - you may use named gestures :scroll-up etc, or full spec :pointer-scroll :wheel-up - you may use find-application-frame to automate make-frame + make-process + run-frame Best regards, Daniel -- Daniel Kochmański ;; aka jackdaniel | Przemyśl, Poland TurtleWare - Daniel Kochmański | www.turtleware.eu "Be the change that you wish to see in the world." - Mahatma Gandhi ------- Original Message ------- On Wednesday, July 5th, 2023 at 21:20, Robert Krug <destiny6@mac.com> wrote:
Greetings,
Many thanks for all your work on McClim. I have been enjoying using it while trying to work my way through Tilings and Patterns by Grunbaum and Shepard.
I think I have gotten a workable approach to panning and zooming. Any comments or suggestions would be greatly appreciated, but my main purpose in posting this rather long email is so that future users might save themselves some work. Thanks again.
Robert
