yad list dialog question

[Wendell MacKenzie]

Hi:

   Have a yad list of filenames which get sent via a pipe to the yad executable.  Have a button defined to Select-All items in the list.  Is there a way to have yad

reflect the update list of selected items vs having to exit and re-run the command

to relist them as being selected?

thx.

OK....found a solution.  I added the --listen option.  Setup a pipe that I could read/write on.  Fired up yad to get its input off this pipe.

Then I fed the data to populate the list into the pipe.  I created a button to select all with a command script that gets invoked when

clicked.  in this script, it selectively will initialize the contents of the list and re-populate it depending on whether I want to toggle

the values ON / OFF.  Much faster than reloading the whole display.
