Nice utility - one minor issue - the Language menu item check mark is reversed - Italian is checked when English is displayed and visa versa.

thanks for the response -- but my problem was not an actual code problem. - perhaps I'm in the wrong place with my questions - I was trying to get answers to the specific questions in my post.

Be gentle with me :) - this is my first PB excursion into the world of Win32 API and DLLs. I'm confused about calling the Win32 API and other DLLs. In the two examples below I'm calling two different DLLs neither of which has constants that PB recognizes - My first question is why not? Does this ...

Seymour,

Another source - Pick up a copy of 'The Javascript Anthology' ISBN 0-9752402-6-9 in chapter 18 they give a a very detailed description and sample code for creating editable elements. After a quick read it appears to address most of your points and then some.

Don't have a lot of time right know but this might point you in the right direction - you seemed anxious. You can edit the text but then you must change focus for onChange to fire - for example click outside the text area

Thanks to you both Derek and #Null - exactly what I was missing - I looked at every other file related command except the obvious

JElliott

I'm trying to figure out to change the default directory for OpenFileRequester to point to the directory of the previously opened file (assuming there has been a previously opened file). This is a fairly common behavior and saves a great deal time when loading several files. I can't figure out how ...

@JElliott : would you mind testing the new version I've uploaded? Thanks.

Works great - Thanks this will be very useful.

srod - great little resize lib - I did find something that might be a bug. If you take your example and resize it so just the title bar remains then expand it again the button appears to loose track of it's bottom position relative to the container.

Thanks,

Jeff

JElliott

Thanks - I will upgrade

Is there and official drag and drop library for PB? I was trying to use srod's EasyVENT- v3 event handler library and it will not compile for me because of #PB_Event_GadgetDrop not found error. If someone could point me the library I would certainly appreciate it. I have seached the forum, but not ...

Sparkie - you aren't missing anything, this is precisely what I wanted to do - I have inserted it in my code and it works great!

My ignorance of the breadth of the available commands is my biggest hindrance right now. I want to thank both you and Derek for your quick responses.

I was wondering if it is possible to create a FIFO view using the editorGadget? What I want to do is display the last "n" entries made into the gadget in a FIFO fashion. This is for a serial port monitor/logger. Each line sent gets displayed in an editorGadget then logged to a file - line by line ...

I could not find #PB_Event_Gadget in the help file at all - looked at history, changes and searched. Looks like most of the difference is an underscore after the Event_ but wondered if there is a definitive list somewhere?
Tools -> Structure Viewer -> Constants

Thanks - again very helpful.

Thanks to both of you for your quick and very helpful replies - I actually got several samples to compile correctly now. Is there a list of constants some where? I have found some of them listed with specific commands but not #PB_Event_Gadget.

I could not find #PB_Event_Gadget in the help file at ...
