[Gambas-user] General Input Box

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

Nic,

I don't know how Gambas works internally, but my understanding is that any
such feature would be
a resource hog because it would have to monitor keystrokes and mouse
positions for all controls used
in a form; what would happen if you had arrays of controls or complicated
controls that you had to monitor?

With your generic keystroke and mouse monitor approach there would be cases
where keystrokes coming
from certain controls would have to be prioritized and queued...  that would
create havoc bringing gambas
programs' runtime performance to a slow grind. Yet again as I said before I
don't know how Gambas works
internally so the only person who can answer this for us, is Benoi himself.

Regards,
Dimitris
