Adding Buttons in DOpus... PLZ help.

Claw22000 · 10 March 2009, 04:12

I would like to Add a button to DOpus that will let me pick a bunch of zip files and then extract them to the location of the section of DOpuses window. I can find where to go just don't know how to format it correctly. Thanks

Ok Problem solved on another Forum but...

Whole new DOpus Problem now. I click configure and the DOpus like zooms in. (Best as I can describe what it looks like) I can't see of of the DOpus window any more. I tried to change the screen mode and run DOpus again but it's like it has its own screen mode when its running. Any suggestions. Getting this to do what I need it to would greatly speed up the process of restoring my A1200 to its former greatness

Thanks a lot

@Graham
I'm not sure on version of DOpus as its the one that comes with Bloody Wych's ClassicWBv24. running on OS 3.1 I will check to see if I can find more info about the version. And get back to you.

@Cosmicfrog
Its connected to a 32" NTSC TV. I removed all but NTSC from the devs/Monitors. before I got my ram expansion I really needed the space. If I need to put some of one of those back I will since I have 4 more megs now.

-=EDIT=-
I added an attachment of the version screen in DOpus. If all you need is basic version its 4.16

If it's the one on ClassicWB then zip should already be working

Just highlight all the zip files at once, make sure you have the destination in the right pane and then click on "Arc Ext"

Claw22000 · 11 March 2009, 20:37

Arc will uncompress zip? I'll have to give this a try. Thanks

killergorilla · 12 March 2009, 00:02

In this case "Arc" means "Archive" and "ext" means "Extract".

So yes it'll do zips

ive got dopus set up for unzipping files but the problem is with some of the demos the file names are too long and the file name is cut in the dopus window and dopus dosnt see the file as a zip file ?

Graham Humphrey · 06 June 2009, 14:28

I've had this problem before, all I did was shorten the filename so '.zip' could fit on the end and then it worked fine.

I think youre exactly right there that crossed my mind !
but i did nt want to do any renaming incase it screwed the files for when .dat files are released !
