Would like something like PrintRequester(Title.s,ButtonCaption.s). Having "Print" for both the Requester Title and ButtonCaption indicates to the user that it will be used to print straight away , whereas, I would like to use the requester so the user can select a different printer from my own print ...

The world is changing fast but it still takes a long time to get there! I'm still using Windows XP on most of my computers with no complaints.
And those that are too old now to use it functionally (internet and stuff) are still running fine on versions of Linux. I don't like the current direction ...

Thanks for the answers @idle, @luis and @boristheold.
I'm not very good at understanding pointers, so thanks for the info.
Seems like I should still with the "@" just to be on the safe side

From the PB help file under pointers in relation to Addresses of variables it says;

"To find the address of a variable in your code, you use the at symbol (@). A common reason for using this is when you want to pass a structured type variable to a procedure. You must pass a pointer to this variable ...

On mine it displays the window with text gadgets for 5 seconds then ends as expected [Purebasic version 5.11 on WindowsXP(SP3)].

You could make the rest of the toolbar out of gadgets also, but only if it suits your purpose.

I know. But how can I place the button to the far right
and keep it there when resizing the window?

Yeah it does, but can't tell you where you when wrong without the other code.
Quickly made some up just to test, see below (note: right mouse click on help);

Yes you can trigger a popup menu from a status bar.
Have a look at the windows callback used in the purebasic code archive V4: - a file called "statusbar_events.pb" or the file "menuhelp_in_statusbar.pb". The basic principles in these examples will work once updated and adapted to your needs.

First I might start by saying I don't program for a living, which is why I'm not often on this forum.
However, I think motivation is a common thread in most industries. In my industry we create motivation by setting a sense of urgency. We first do this by planning what needs to be done. We then ...

The question is.... What do you want exactly ??
Yeah what he said!

An example of what I said;


Procedure.s MouseLoc() ; a procedure to get mouse location in window
Protected.s LocText
x = WindowMouseX(0)
y = WindowMouseY(0)
LocText = "Mouse Located at X="+Str(x)+" Y="+Str(y ...

Do you mean for monitoring the mouse button in an window event loop?

Case #WM_LBUTTONDOWN :MessageRequester("Test Left Click","")
Case #WM_RBUTTONDOWN :MessageRequester("Test Right Click","")
Case #WM_MBUTTONDOWN :MessageRequester("Test Middle Click","")

I'm developing a simple application to download some videos and / or audio files from the web.


I can confirm same result as you, the *.mp4 's don't load for some reason. Yet I have the correct codec loaded for DirectShow (on Windows). Other programs using Directshow load mp4's OK, but PB for ...

I don't write games so I don't pay too much attention to posts about the gaming libraries but when I do read them it doesn't seem like anyone is ever happy with their implementation, so why bother? Maybe it's time to deprecate those libraries. Personally I think Fred's time would be better spent ...

You can also use HideGadget() once full progress is reached, if you intend to re-use the progress bar again.
