PureBasic Forums - English

Thank you @ChrisR for your updates to IceDesign, which I'm enjoying a lot.

I'm wondering if there is a way to set the tab order of controls. I'm not meaning tabs on the PanelGadget, I'm meaning the tab order of gadgets like ButtonGadget and StringGadget etc on a window .

Thanks in advance for any ...

Thank you mk-soft. That helps me nicely with the datetime function.

Thank you tua.

I'm now using:


readDate = GetDatabaseLong(sqliteNo, 1)


when I loop through reading the SQLite data file and:


AddGadgetItem(ligFrmMain, 0, readID + Chr(10) + FormatDate("%yyyy/%mm/%dd %hh:%ii", readDate))


to populate the ListIconGadget. It seems to be working correctly to ...

Thank you to all that responded.

Following your advice, I've changed the SQLite Date field to INTEGER and modified the code to:


OpenDatabase(sqliteNo, "mySQLiteFile.db", "", "")
SetDatabaseLong(sqliteNo, 0, GetGadgetState(myCalendar))
SetDatabaseString(sqliteNo, 1, GetGadgetText(strField1 ...

Hello everyone,

In my project, the user will click the "Save" button on a form which writes the record to the SQLite record id determined previously by last_insert_rowid.

A DateGadget is placed on the form with the code below that the user should be able to modify if required:


myCalendar ...

Hi Chris, this is wonderful, thank you!

I'm wondering if it is possible to do multiline button text? My test (below) didn't work so maybe I'm doing something wrong?


OpenWindow(0, 20, 20, 800, 600, "Ice Button Testing")
SetWindowColor(0, $FFD7C9)
ButtonGadget(1, 20, 20, 100, 50, "This is a multi ...

Thank you mk-soft, I appreciate your help.

Hello infratec and thank you. I struggled with this for ages and you've just solved it. Much appreciated!

Hello everyone,

I've just started learning about SQLite. I've written PureBasic code that successfully reads an SQLite file from disk and displays the records in a ListIconGadget with the record ID in the first column followed by other fields in additional columns. That part works well but I'm ...

Hello all,

Thank you ChrisR for the latest update.

After adding my code to an IceDesign form to use as a single form application, I usually need to modify the form in IceDesign and then of course I'm back to square one with adding my own code code to the new IceDesign generated code.

So far, I'm ...

Hi ChrisR,

Thank you for explaining about the font disappearing. I thought it was probably in your design.

This might be another silly question but is it possible/logical to have #SS_CenterImage for the StringGadget too, especially for a single line? It would make my form look even better .

Hi ChrisR,

I'm enjoying this update, thank you.

I've been having an issue where the gadget font setting disappears and I don't know if it is a bug or feature. It is still the same in version 1.8.2 so I thought I'd ask.

1. I add a TextGadget to a form, although it could be any gadget that will ...

Hello TI-994A and yes, I've already been using your excellent SQLite tutorial, thank you. It is another of your tutorials that made it possible for me to get going with PureBasic.

My ambitions with PureBasic have escalated much faster than my learning and I'm very pleased with my IceDesign purchase ...

Hi there Yogi Yang, I have looked at Twinbasic previously and it looks to have great potential but I wouldn't enter into the subscription model.

Thanks the.weavster for your skeleton code, it is very useful for me, thank you.

Caronte3D, I also enjoyed Delphi. I think from memory, I paid about US ...

Hello Phil, Xojo is still a good option but I wasn't so keen on the price increases. I purchased Pro in the past but in my case the Lite version is sufficient as I'm primarily using SQLite. I also found the built-in help frustrating to use as it lost the simplicity of what it used to be.

Thank you ...
