This can be done much simpler:
Procedure GadgetFit (gadget.i)
Protected.i w_req, h_req
w_req = GadgetWidth (gadget, #PB_Gadget_RequiredSize)
h_req = GadgetHeight(gadget, #PB_Gadget_RequiredSize)
If w_req <> GadgetWidth(gadget) Or h_req <> GadgetHeight(gadget)
ResizeGadget(gadget, #PB ...

Re: PB IDE font setup ...
I have a similar problem: my computer doesn't run on steam power. It seems I have to use electricity.marc_256 wrote: Sat Sep 27, 2025 3:57 pm Hi Demivec,
I did this already, but then I lose all my graphic characters (Page437).
only when I use the OEM-US character set I can use the Page437 character set.

That's not what he reported as a bug.mk-soft wrote: Wed Sep 17, 2025 8:17 am but a rule in the programming that no special characters may be used (ÄÖÜ, etc)
This is not only the case with PureBasic
The reported bug is the faulty error message.

[Done] UncompressPackFile() should preserve modification times
When I recently used PB's built-in packer lib for the first time, I was flabbergasted to see that after unpacking files from an archive, all file modification times are set to the current time.
