4th week
Even with Micah out the entire week, Matt and I were able to accomplish a lot in the class. Rather than making robocode, we decided to work on our projects instead and we got a lot of things done. First, we were able to retrieve the lost code (make a new code) for making the screen fullscreen. Then we made the background black, and the font green. We were also able to figure out how to adjust the font and font size of the text that goes into the text area. Then, we were able to come up with the margins so the text doesn't go all the way to the edges of the screen. We made a scroll pane, that includes the scroll bar, which allows the user to go up and down freely through the text editor. The more button functionality we worked on was the cut/cope/paste button which all work appropriately when pressed (control + x/c/v). The two major problems we had was having it to do those 3 conditions when a button is clicked, but we came to a consensus that when in fullscreen mode, the user will be using keyboard shortcuts, not the buttons in the file menubar. Thus, it makes no real difference. Another problem was the border of the fullscreen page was white, but we were able to make it black also. The still occuring issue is making the scroll bar not appear because its very distracting and doesn't match write-room.
