Harmonica Widget for Windows

In both web and Windows applications you see harmonica's in use.
Uniface does not have a special widget for this, but you can program simular functionality yourself.
I have made a small sample that you can download.

Recycle Uniface icons

In Uniface small pictures, icons etc are called glyphs.
When an application  is deployed the glyphs are in a .dol file.
And since the Uniface product is also a Uniface application, it comes with a .dol file.

Yesterday I wanted to reuse some Uniface icons in my own application.
I got carried away with it a bit and made a Glyph Browser.
It finds the usys.dol file that you are using, and shows all the glyphs that are in it.
You can click on a glyph to see it bigger.

Full documentation is in the Execute trigger of the Form GLYPHBROWSER.

The Uniface Lab is looking for six software engineers

Uniface is developed in Amsterdam by the Uniface Lab. We have a long track-record of delivery on demand through incremental software updates, deploying a proven mechanism of continuous integration, and automated environments for building and regression testing.
We are organized around five disciplines: Product Management, Customer Support, Product Development, Quality Assurance, and Technical Communication. We use the agile Scrum methodology to manage and control our product development. We work in multi-disciplinary Scrum teams, each team responsible for both product enhancement and maintenance.

For the Uniface Lab, we are looking for six software engineers: four will focus on product development and two on release engineering. We expect positive and assertive team players who have a strong desire to succeed in a team- and customer-oriented environment. 

4x Software Engineer/Developer        Product Development
1x Software Engineer                            Release Engineering (Build)
1x Software Engineer                            Release Engineering (Test)


Please keep in mind that these positions are about developing the Uniface product, not about developing applications with Uniface!
