[lazarus] Label mystery solved probably...

[Shane Miller]

TApplication should have a Components list or something that keeps track of all components (classees) in the application.  If it is a parent class, it goes into this list.  Each parent class also contains a list of components that it owns in the TComponent class (I think).  That's how everything is initially created.

If I can infact get past this label thing I might just be able to add a few
myself. Speaking of which if I get it working how do you see TApplication
doing a form creation. something like CreateForm(formclass: TForm)  ?  I can
place a reference to the form in a list to track the instances and destroy
when application.halt is called. As for the progress bar I will look at that
I might have to create another control placement method using a vbox or
alignment widget.

I've tried it without using AddControl and it's failed.

I have moved on for now so I would appreciate it if anyone has time if they
could look at the code.  I am on another component for now.

Shane is the alignment widget classified as a container widget. AddControl
will only work against a
Container type widget at the moment.

Question:

Can the gtk widget Statusbar be changed so it is automatically created
inside an alignment widget?  Like the toolbar there shoul be no instance
where it's not either on the right/left/top/bottom/center of a form.

If not, can someone look at the newest code in the CVS?  I have created a
TStatusBar class and I have the user create an alignment widget, then create
a tstatusbar with the alignment as the parent.  When I do this, the
statusbar never shows up!  It's hidden somewhere.

If I create the Statusbar with the form as the parent (the code for that is
in main.pp) then it displays itself but when the form is resized we would
need to find some way of moving it to keep it on the bottom of the form.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.
