PureBasic Forums - English

Looks cool, am glad to see you guys taking future-proof steps.

Thing is now you are making it increasingly difficult not to buy Purebasic...I didn't say it was a problem.

Good luck, can't wait for *actual* release.

I just added Delay(20) after your repeat and it sped up and was fine. I have to do this with all my window apps so far.

I didn't realize there was a free version. I seen the paperback version but wasn't ready to put out money for it yet until I was sure or comfortable with PureBASIC.

Will look for the book thank you for the suggestion.

Promise to be my last post for awhile, I just really like this language and since there is such a wealth of info from people much more experienced than I.........Yea yea shut up and get to the point right..

I am drawing a selection box for a simple start of a strategy game now I have read through ...

Ah....yes I just finished reading that in the help file

Thank you for the quick response.

If I change it to:

InitSprite()
InitKeyboard()
UsePNGImageDecoder()

MySprite = LoadSprite(#PB_Any,"./Media/Devil.png")
;LoadSprite(0,"./Media/Devil.png")
OpenScreen(800,600,32,"Something...",#PB_Screen_SmartSynchronization)

X.w = 0
Y.w = 0
ClearScreen(RGB(0,0,0))
For c = 1 To 1000
X = Random ...

I was just testing out code speed with images and sprites. The code with the images works fine, when I change it to sprites all I get is white blocks. I am assuming it's a fail on my part not a bug.

With Image:
InitSprite()
InitKeyboard()
UsePNGImageDecoder()

MyImage = LoadImage(#PB_Any, "./Media ...

Ok, I am convinced. I am definitley going with the windowed screens, PureBASIC is sooo cool! Off-Topic: I was searching the forums about the visual designer and came across the C.Boss post........wow what a read....I feel dumber now for putting myself through it. lol.

Thanks VB! I hope to make a run with this and if things look good after a bit I am going to purchase the full version.

@BasicallyPure: I pretty much edited your procedure the same as what you got there to make it work, thats too bad about it being buggy. Are windowed screens quicker/slower/same as ...

Thanks, again. The backspace and return keys don't work, is it the wrong keycode??....Guess not the table those codes. I am using Linux if that makes a difference? I will fool around with it, much appreciated.

Awesome, thanks for the code, the cursor is handy. Your code, looks much more eloquent, will use as an example.

Well it is in a procedure to be included in a program, like entering name for high score. It needs to return a string and the loop break is when the user hits enter. I guess I should put that info in the code.


....There edited so it will display a message saying what to do and how to exit.

Hey Pure-world!
This is my virgin post lol. Anyways I am fairly new to programming, and just curious if my following code is the only way/correct way to recieve user input while in a fullscreen enviroment. The code is the KeyboardInkey() help code modified. The original did not allow for CAPS. It ...
