    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (SPOILERS)

    Though I admit, seeing the Enterprise duking it out against a star destroyer would be pretty awesome. Of course Enterprise would win easily.

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (SPOILERS)

    As you can probably tell from the chatbox I FREAKING LOVED IT! I feel that this topped both 7 and Rogue One! I have to say, that hyperspeed destruction scene is easily my favorite scene in the entire franchise!

    PID derivative value oddity

    But how would that work for a directionally-dependent system like setting thrusters to hold a heading? Let's say my target is 90 and I'm at 89 which makes my error 1, I should thrust right. But if it overshoots and gets to 91, my error as absolute value would still be 1, so how would I know to...

    PID derivative value oddity

    I'm working on tuning an autopilot for a launcher in Orbiter, and I'm breaking out the data into a table to see what effects the variable changes are having. One thing I noticed though when the vehicle approaches the setpoint, the error rate remains the same. Here's the data...

    News Raspberry Pi computer, is it rational?

    And for me, I was planning to use one to stream SDR radio from a receiver. Not sure though if the bottleneck was RAM or CPU.

    Orbiter Truss System for Orbiter 2010 2017-09-04

    This is the main release of Zatnikitelman's Orbiter Truss System for Orbiter 2010. It is designed to represent a generic truss structure for space stations similar to the ISS's integrated truss structure. Principally, this release adds four new pallets, and scenario editor pages over v0.7. This...

    Tablet case dilemma

    Except there's no other case out there for the Surface Pro 3 that has the rotating handle in the rear. ---------- Post added at 20:21 ---------- Previous post was at 06:19 ---------- I weighed the pros and cons and the cost, and went with the Dremel. I was able to get the plastic ground down...

    Tablet case dilemma

    What good would showing it to them do? Especially to a smaller dealer (which don't exist for this BTW). Regardless, my choice seems to be return both and get a refund, or try to make a minor modification and risk being out $40.

    Tablet case dilemma

    So, I bought an Incipio Capture case for my Surface Pro 3 tablet from Amazon. It comes in two parts, a plastic inner shell, and rubbery outer skin. The plastic shell includes cut outs for all the ports and buttons, the skin contains "doors" and its own buttons (think the button pad on a TV...

    Problem SetWindowText on edit box closes window

    Now I'm a little confused, Martin. So I'm definitely not editing anything from ScnEditor itself. But I'm not really sure how to setup a button with its own value other than manually editing it once I've added it in the dialog designer. But now it sounds like IDC_BACK always needs to have an ID...

    Problem SetWindowText on edit box closes window

    I'll tentatively say that that may be it, for both problems, orb. I manually edited the resource.h to swap the values of IDC_EDIT2 and IDC_BACK and now both issues seem to be working. I've only poked at it a few minutes so I'm not ready to confirm it, but so far so good. Thanks everyone for the...

    Problem SetWindowText on edit box closes window

    Here's the definition for that editor page: IDD_DIALOG1 DIALOGEX 0, 0, 309, 177 STYLE DS_SETFONT | DS_FIXEDSYS | WS_CHILD FONT 8, "MS Shell Dlg", 400, 0, 0x1 BEGIN EDITTEXT IDC_EDIT1,7,7,40,14,ES_AUTOHSCROLL CONTROL "STS",IDC_CHECK1,"Button",BS_AUTOCHECKBOX |...

    Problem SetWindowText on edit box closes window

    Yes, I boiled it down to just that line, and the page won't even open as expected. It flashes briefly, but since the first message is WM_INITDIALOG, it promptly closes since it's executing the method causing this issue without any guard conditions. Boiling it down (back up? :P) to just a case...

    Problem SetWindowText on edit box closes window

    Yep, did that too. With the only line being SetWindowText(GetDlgItem(hTab, IDC_EDIT2), "0.001"); it still dies.

    Problem SetWindowText on edit box closes window

    Did all of that, have the debug stuff down in ovcInit including that extra flag value, but it's still showing the bad behavior.

    Problem SetWindowText on edit box closes window

    I did, the value is indeed the correct string, on the first press it's "1.000" and so on.

    Problem SetWindowText on edit box closes window

    I hit a strange problem writing a scenario editor page. It seems that a call to SetDialogText for one specific Edit Control I have is causing the window to close, and I'm at a loss as to why. Here's a chunk of my message handler method: case WM_NOTIFY: if (((NMHDR*)lParam)->code ==...
