Split Window with Brief Emulation
brad:
I Just installed the trial version of slick edit core and I am using Brief emulation.
When I try to split a window with F3 followed by an arrow key all that happens is that the cursor moves.
I installed a trial version of the standalone slick edit and the window splitting works as expected. When you press F3 a message appears at the bottom of the screen that says "point to edge for new window with cursor keys". When you press a cursor key a new window is created.
Both products have F3 mapped to create-tile.
I tried using the command window to execute create-tile. In the standalone version it works. In the core version it displays the message "command is disabled for this object" near the bottom of the screen.
Ryan:
Yea...those commands were previously disabled because we didn't have the capabilities to split windows in Eclipse. See my last post in this thread: http://community.slickedit.com/index.php?topic=5185.0 . Tomorrow I am going to see what I can do to implement support for these in a hotfix. Can't promise anything, but I would check back tomorrow.

Ryan,
Thanks for the quick reply. It will be great if you can get it working. It seems like with the fact that hsplit-window, vsplit-window, move-above, etc are working it should not be too hard. Thanks for your efforts.
I used the original BRIEF back in 1984 and then switched to BRIEF emulation with Codewright. It is great to have BRIEF emulation in a live product again.

Ryan:
This should get you create-tile working. Just save the attached macro file, and load it via Macro > Load Module..., or open it in Eclipse and hit F12 (in most emulations). delete-tile is going to require a bit more work...I'll keep you posted. Let me know if you have any problems with this.

Ryan,
That works. I am looking forward to delete-tile.
Thank you very much.
