- CodeWarrior Colorfix Patch 1.0.2
- Created by Chris K. Thomas <thunderone@delphi.com>
-
- ======= What It Is
- The CodeWarrior development enviroment has a few aesthetic defects (one is
- a bug). These have been present since DR/1, but have yet to be fixed. The
- enviroment engineers have better things to do, of course, so I solved the
- problems myself [and created new ones, which 1.0.1 solves].
-
- The defects in question:
- Metrowerks' PopUp MDEF does not display correctly if one has custom
- menu colors (through Greg's Buttons or a handmade 'mctb' or whatever).
- + The standard MDEF is replaced with one of my own devising.
- Projector & Locked-disk indicators are only in B&W.
- + These are replaced with appropriate color versions.
-
- CodeWarrior Colorfix Patch been tested with CW/4 and CW/4.5 only, but
- should work with all previous versions of the enviroment (though I
- don't recommend using earlier versions). The Patch should only be
- applied to a copy of the CodeWarrior enviroment(s).
-
- Bugs, comments, suggestions, questions are welcome and encouraged.
-
- ======= Installation
- 1. Open the "CodeWarrior Colorfix" file in a resource editor.
- 2. Select All.
- 3. Copy. Close the "CodeWarrior Colorfix" file.
- 4. Open the CodeWarrior enviroment (MW C/C++, Pascal, Debugger) in a
- resource editor. Do *not* use ResEdit 2.1.2. Use 2.1.1 or 2.1.3
- if you must. ResEdit 2.1.2 has a "feature" which will corrupt
- the CodeWarrior resource file. 2.1.3 fixes this.
- 5. Paste. Yes, replace the previously existing resources.
- 6. Save. You're done.
-
- ======= History
- 1.0 - Mid-August:
- First release.
-
- 1.0.1 - A few days later (Released Sept 7):
-
- + General Improvements
- * Removed text resource which wouldn't paste appropriately into Pascal
- and C/C++ PPC and the Debugger.
-
- + MDEF Improvements
- * Much faster.
- * Heavily tested in daily use.
- * Items now display and hilite correctly in B&W.
- * Fixed "pseudogray pattern sometimes fills seperator" bug.
- * Fixed "crashes @ bSetup0+xx when too many menu items are present" bug -
- bSetup0 appears to be a low-level, undocumented Menu Manager trap, one of
- a series.
-
- 1.0.2 - Oct 1 or 2:
- + Fixed bug where MDEF displays wild colors if there was no default
- 'mctb'. I seem to have lost the address of the gentleman who reported
- this, so if you're him, please let me know so I can credit you!
-
- - Known Problem
- If the screen depth is set to black and white, seperator lines don't
- appear.
