Re: Sleep mode

According to the answer from AI, it is only possible if you turn off hibernation mode.

To force a Windows PC into normal sleep mode (S3) rather than hibernation (S4) using Win32 methods,
you must ensure hibernation is disabled,
as the Win32 SetSuspendState function often defaults to hibernation ...

Re: [Windows] Colorizing things...

If it's just dark mode rather than coloring, you can do it as shown below.

Re: [Windows] DPI awareness Per Monitor v2

This is prototype code for thread-safe.

Compared to thread-unsafe code, it has limitations.
It can only be compiled in PB 6.1x or later versions, and in future PB versions, the code may need to be modified to work.
The MS Detours library is required.

The PB's DesktopScaled/DesktopUnscaled ...

Re: CryptRandomData() Odd behavior

As SMaag's comment pointed out, it's problematic because it may contain invalid character values, and the number of characters read in your code is also incorrect.
However, rather than using PeekS directly, it is recommended to verify that each byte of the data generated by the CryptRandomData ...

Re: Findstring, Is this a bug?


But I would agree that the BOM better should be skipped automatically to make it easier to work with that kind of text files.


There is the #PB_File_BOM flag, but it cannot be used with the #PB_Any value due to an error.

The OpenFile function has the same problem.

Re: [Windows] DPI awareness Per Monitor v2

CAUTION : StartDPIAction and StopDPIAction calls must be paired.

As a side note:
I tested using the PostEvent() and BindEvent() functions, but the custom event only fired when the mouse button was released, making it impossible to change the size of gadgets in real time.

I discovered that when ...
