Is there a fix for version 2.0's inability to display some characters when you try to alias to a specific button?
It sure makes it hard to know what command your aliasing to!!

How about using a text-only button label.
Okay, so that was a bit of a flippant answer, how about a real one.
I put ALL of my commands for each device onto a HIDDEN panel called IR under that device. Each button on the IR panel has a text discription. All buttons that reference "alias" other buttons call these buttons.
That way my aliases look like "[B] DVD - IR - PwrOn" or "[B] VCR - IR - Play".
Yes, I'm telling you to re-do your work, but there you go.

There is a fix. The problem is related to the verson of Internet Explore you have. I think this is mentioned in the FAQ.

Would love to try it out but cannot for the life of me (and yes, I am very computer literate) figure out how to use it! What to install, etc.! On 12/21/01 18:05.34, Stewart Allen said...

Speaking of HIDDEN panels... I'm kinda new to this and I am just putting together my ccf. I've downloaded a handful from here.
One ccf I'm using as a basis for my own has every panel listed as "is hidden" if I right click on the panel, plus all panel names are in brackets, signifying hidden I guess.
Exactly what is the panel hidden FROM? Doesn't look hidden to me at all.
Also, what is the "Test IR" button in ProntoEdit supposed to do? It doesn't appear to cause my Pronto to output any IR.

Yes, I have used a hidden panel and placed all my comands there...I still cannot see some of the commands upon the page. I do see the alias to the page in the properties window, but, the problem I have is within the 'button alias selection window' itself, not the name of the page.
And I couldn't find it in the FAQ, I'll try again.

Found it, looks like I'll have to go back to 5.01 instead of 6.0...
Cannot find an older version of comctl32.dll

Kenny,
It's pretty easy. Provided you have a Java2 VM installed (preferrably IBM's), just unzip tonto into some location then double-click the "tonto.jar" file in the bin directory. It will launch and you will find yourself in a familiar-looking program.

Stewart,
your program looks cool...I downloaded ibm-jre-n118 and installed...clicked on the .jar and the open with what dialog poped up, don't see anything java related in the box?
Please help, I'd love to try out your program!

You need the 1.3.0 JRE (Java2). 118 is way too old.

OK I have the correct VM now I believe, now when I try to launch the .jar it says it cannot find the .exe. I try to locate it in the java folders that I previously installed and cannot get it to work.
thanks for all your help.

Mike, "hidden" does not really mean hidden. It just means that you cannot use scrolling to get to it.
