I don’t know where I read that interface is for windows only not for other platforms? I will have a look again anyway.

@Luis,
Many thanks for the clarification.
I am really enjoying using PB and have no major issues with it till now. Even without OOP I still can find my way, may be with more effort but still doable.
But if they just add OOP, PB will …. (OMG I am saying it again)
Have a nice day

Very helpful. Thanks for all the replies

I really have no issue with PB and I like it and believe I can achieve what I want to do with it.
I (and I believe any newbie) was trying to find easier way to write my code as my coding time is very limited, that’s it, but seems the issue was raised many times before and I believe this will not be ...

@Tenaja,
I understand that changing to fully OOP is very difficult and may affect the pros of PB like speed, file size, and memory usage. This is why I am asking for semi-OOP with some specific functionality not all of them.

Why only Canvas can detect these events?

What's up. Could not get you

May be the subject is misleading, not necessarily all the procedure to be in one file.
For example, I am trying to simulate MS Access multi-column combo using string, button, and listview gadgets.

Zach,

Yes I can via API but for windows only. What I need is platform independent method

Thanks fsw, this will help a lot.
However if PB consider thinking about adding some (not necessarily all) of the functionalities of the OOP (specially subclassing to add custom properties and methods) will make PB the programming language no 1 in the world.

I have a group of controls that will work together to do a specific function. This group can be repeated in the same application or in other applications and I want them to always act the same way. I put a procedure in a pbi file to create the group, so all what I need is to include this file and ...

Add the possibility to add custom properties to the gadgets or windows? (If custom methods as well would be great). It should be cross platform.

I’ve seen some topics for that but for windows only using API calls. I want to add properties and methods to a gadget or window but should be valid for all supported platforms.

Ok,
Thanks all for the prompt reply

I am new to PB. I am using windows. How to compile my application to a different OS (Mac, Lunix, etc)? I can see in the menus “Default target” and “All targets” but they are not working. And in the compiler options there are Windows, Console, and Dll only and no other OS.
