  • Worked on switching over "Search" to become "Quick Entry". This involved resurecting Darshana's code and adding her attribute editor to the toolbar. It wasn't too hard to get the toolbar to be able to contain an attribute editor.
  • I ran into a interesting snag with the attribute editor's list box that displays matching commands: On Macintosh the list box comes up behind the toolbar. I spent several days trying out various approaches to fix the problem. Finally after delving into the source of the problem, deep inside wx, I came up with a solution using the native carbon HIView APIs that allowed me to place the list box above the toolbar.
  • I still need to verify that the proposed Macintosh solution to the list box problem is compatible with a related requirement to work with buffered windows.
