Is there any way to make the menu check marks and sub menu arrows DPI aware without drawing my own? This is what it looks like when desktop scaling is set to 150%. It gets worse as the scaling goes up.

Hi

Thanks for the great DLL files but I have a bit of an issue. I'm writing a downloader for Amiga WHDLoad files and if I try to download the following file , ReceiveFTPFileEx give me nothing.

I'm pretty sure it's the 'å' that is ...

Try a virtual listicon. I can load 38000 items in 27ms. It does add some complications programatically that need to be worked around but it's worth it if you need speed.

Here's an example

#ItemCount = 5000
#LVSICF_NOINVALIDATEALL = 1
#LVN_ODCACHEHINT = #LVN_FIRST - 13

Global Dim myItems.s ...

Assuming that the command line works from a DOS prompt, you'd need to format it like this

param$="-m "+#DOUBLEQUOTE$+"|sox sound1.wav -p -v 1.00"+#DOUBLEQUOTE$+" "+#DOUBLEQUOTE$+"|sox sound2.wav -p -v 0.50"+#DOUBLEQUOTE$+" "+#DOUBLEQUOTE$+"P:\sox_exper\mix.wav"+#DOUBLEQUOTE$

This gives me ...

If you go to Preferences - Coloring and scroll down a bit, there is an option for "Mark mismatched Braces and Keywords". Make sure that is ticked and a colour is set. If you tick the option above "Mark matching Braces and Keywords" it's easier to see when you are writing the command.

I use a virtual listicon gadget in a Mame frontend I wrote, which can display 43000 text lines pretty much instantly. Might be worth a search on the forums.

You could simplifly your code and speed it up by using select..case rather than if..elseif..endif. e.g.

Result = Random(12,1) ; change 12 to 13 later - have no explosive users yet!

Select Result

It looks similar, but it isn't. MAMEUI is slow, clunky and bloated compared to vanilla MAME. This program is portable, small in size and allows multiple configs per machine. This is great for me as I mostly use the command line for running MAME. As I said, it's not a replacement for a frontend, it's ...

I've uploaded an alpha version of a frontend that I have been working on to my EasyEmu site. It's called Simple FE and is designed to be a fast, lightweight launcher for MAME. Be aware that SFE is not designed to be a replacement for the lovely graphical frontends, it is very plain in comparison and ...

If you just have a statusbar and a menu use...

Sorry Me Again!

Looks like something broke on the scroll bars with the new update. The scrollbar button scrolls at a different speed to the mouse. It does it on the example if you add a few more lines. I checked on different DPI's and it's not related.

Thanks Thorsten!

Works absolutely perfectly now!

Only had to comment out a debug.

Great Work!

I think its a DPI issue. My display is normally set to 125% scaling. If I turn scaling to 100%, the header and column problems go away.

If I run this code at 100% scaling, the gadgets are perfect.

I'm trying to use the ListEx gadget in a splitter gadget. If I run this code, there seems to be a problem with the auto resize. Am I doing something wrong?

Fixed it!

Changed...

If ListEx()\ScrollBar\Item()\Thumb\Size < dpiY(6) : ListEx()\ScrollBar\Item()\Thumb\Size = dpiY(6) : EndIf

to

If ListEx()\ScrollBar\Item()\Thumb\Size < dpiY(20) : ListEx()\ScrollBar\Item()\Thumb\Size = dpiY(20) : EndIf

in the procedure CalcScrollBarThumb_
