PureBasic Forums - English

Is anyone actually using this? I ask because I'm considering a modification or two and if nobody is really using it I can skip it.

I wrote this years ago and when I went to search for it on the forums it can't be found. So here it is again, a tool for customizing a messagebox with colors, images and timeout. You can choose the screen position too.

So I have a productive Linux environment now. I'll let you in on a couple of problems I ran into:

1. My bootable media wouldn't boot. It always booted to the hard disk and wouldn't boot from my usb thumbdrive. I went into BIOS and chose "USB Key" as the first boot, no luck. "USB Floppy" didn't work ...

Still playing with it, I'd like to get something that just installs without tweaks. I'm dropping Cinnamon and trying XFCE.

I eventually found the solution. The OS doesn't have the right driver for my 31" Samsung monitor and so it refused to create a desktop on it. The fix was to edit the grub menu and change "quiet splash" to "quiet splash nomodeset". Now I have a good working gui and a couple of apps working and I'm ...

It seems to work fine if I boot from the usb key and select compatibility mode. But if I install mint it doesn't use the compatibility mode and nothing shows on my desktop.

It's looking a bit better now. I had to boot Mint into compatibility mode and all looks much better.

I installed Mint but all I get is a splash screen and no apps or anything. How do I find apps and get them installed in Mint? How do I get to a gui? I selected the Cinnamon desktop but I don't really get a desktop. Any suggestions would be welcome as I've never used Linux before.

YIPPEEE!! Been waiting 20 years for this!

Sprites are much faster. There is no scenario where what you want drawn can't be drawn to a sprite first and then displayed. Maximum speed.

You could use an index for the list that would consist of a Map() that would contain all current row IDs and nothing else.
NewMap keys.i()

x = 1
keys(Str(x)) = 0 ; Do this before adding the element to the list

If FindMapElement(keys(), Str(x))
Debug "Key "+Str(x) +" exists"
Else
Debug "Key ...

The problem as stated cannot be solved. There are just too many reasons this would happen. Try to put together a snippet where it's happening and post that.

Nothing to it. Just recreate the image as transparent:

Declare ButtonHandler_1()

CreateImage(0,320,240,32,#PB_Image_Transparent)
StartVectorDrawing(ImageVectorOutput(0))
VectorSourceColor(RGBA(0,0,255,255))
FillVectorOutput()
StopVectorDrawing()

OpenWindow(0,0,0,320,270,"",#PB_Window ...

#width=1000
#height=1000
alp=1

OpenWindow(0,100,0,#width,#height,"Window")
CreateImage(0,#width,#height)
ImageGadget(0,0,0,#width,#height,ImageID(0))

SetGadgetState(0,ImageID(0))
AddWindowTimer(0,1,40)

Repeat
Event = WaitWindowEvent()
Select Event
Case #PB_Event_Timer
alp+1
If alp>=255 ...
