MDI – Woohoo!
The MDI (Multiple Document Interface) is very useful. For those who don’t know, it is where you can make windows, maximize, minimize, tile, cascade, arrange icons and all that in several programs. This allows for editing multiple files at once.
This feature of the Win32 API has been added to Campaign-Dev. This is a professional technique, so I’m suprised it actually works. It still has some quirks, but thats like any program. The cascade, tile (vertically and horizontally) all work perfectly. Now, there is a lot to be done. I kind of hacked up the New.. menu selection, so that’ll have to be fixed.
But for now, without going into too much detail (perhaps later, need to go paint somemore), all I can say is go look at the code. Mainly the mdi.c/h files.
