Re: Input of floating point numeric number in a window

The first thing to remember is that data entered into an Editbox is text only. When you enter a number it is simply the characters that you are entering. To use the entry numerically, it must be restricted to numerical characters 0 to 9 and - and . (or , if you use , as the decimal point). You must ...

2: It came up blank when I went into the Win32 tool selection and searched for SendMessage, so bottom line is this is not very useful, BUT thanks for the effort. :)


I've just tried to find SendMessage and it came up with the SendMessage specification. Tried random others and they also come ...

Re: GridGadget

A very interesting way to develop a Grid.

What would be really useful would be if there was also a way of adding rows independent of an increased number of columns. There does not appear to be a AddGadgetRow() to complement AddGadgetColumn().

I've answered my own question. REM out the ...

Re: Resizing rows and columns in a grid.

I was thinking of a grid comprised of StringGadgets, but I'm not sure if this will work, I.e. allowing resizing by dragging borders.

Resizing rows and columns in a grid.

How do I go about resizing the size of rows and columns in say a 4 col x 3 row grid by dragging the cell borders?

Re: PBEdit - a Canvas-based Texteditor

ChrisR
Thank you for your help. I've tried both methods, placing the code at the head of the program, but I couldn't get either to work.

I guess I'll stick with either your designer or the Purebasic editor for the present.

Re: PBEdit - a Canvas-based Texteditor


ToolBarStandardButton() is obsolete now since v6.0, the toolbar was ugly in high resolution after adding DPI support.
Replace them by using ToolBarImageButton()
However, ToolBarStandardButton() is still in the help without any explanation.

Personally I use version 1.10 and I like it. I have some ...

Unfortunately, I get an error "Line 11372 ToolBarStandardButton() is not a function, array, list, map or macro".

I am using Purebasic 6.00 LTS(x64) and Windows 11.

I have been using HelpNDoc for some time. A free download is available - it just includes a single line advert. The Standard Edition, if you want to buy is 99Euros, but to try out the free version is fine. It's very easy to use and you can import a .chm file.

It outputs to many different formats ...
