PureFORM 1.99 (yet another FORM designer)

Lostdragon · Post by **Lostdragon** » Wed Dec 19, 2007 2:05 am

That last test you posted seems to have done the trick.

In case you are interested:

I did experience a crashing / weird issue with the "purecolor / pb4" function, but I haven't figured out a way to make the crash appear on command. That also happens in the test you sent, but I had similar issues with the regular version, so I don't think it is new. If I figure out how to make the crash appear predictably then I will post again.

I also notice if you select the "..." tool and then select a color from the palette, the luminosity is set to 0 no matter what color you pick. If you tell it to add a custom color at that point, then it adds black. If you raise the value manually, then you can pick a color normally and add it to the palette.

I am using XP by the way. I should have mentioned that before. I am also using the latest release version of PB that I know of - 4.10.

Anyway, thanks for the fix! Pureform is a great tool. I use it exclusively now.

Fixed default color (the color initially selected when the color requester is displayed) for next release : based on previously selected color or system color if none.
Note that if the default color is black, the luminosity is (obviously) set to 0, and you may indeed have to raise it manually.

hi gnozal
i test your last update but it seems there is a little problem !
when i create a menu using an icon and compile the code, the compiler send me an error message "CreateImageMenu isn't a fonction, macro or....".
PS: But i have the PureCOLOR library
PB 4.1

Edit
Sorry gnozal i see the option now. This option is locate to the configuration window

gnozal,

Would it be fairly easy to make an option to always highlight text gadgets within the designer? This would make it much easier when placing the other gadgets because then you could see a kind of border around the text gadget rather than just the text itself. This is different than enabling the standard border flag as that changes the appearance. I was hoping for something that looks like when you've selected the text gadget itself.

Thanks!

Update

Changes :
- new option : 'Show gadget limits for Text/CheckBox/Option' ; if checked, the text/checkbox/option gadgets are highlighted, i.e. there is a border around the gadget rather than just the text itself, showing it's dimensions. This may be handy for an accurate gadget placement.

I have a prob with PureFORM.
If i open the Configuration and close it with the button OK PureFORM Crashs.
It shows the Message at the image:

I have test it more times and every time a have the same prob and crash.

My System:
Windows XP Pro (all updates)
PB 4.02 with jaPBe

regards,
Nico

[EDIT]
I have found the prob.
At the next image you can see the Option wat makes the crash. (in the red rectangle).
If i set this option and close the configuration window, PureFORM crashs.

This option is only available if Scintilla is enabled.
I have uploaded a new version with an additional check, so you can't select this option if scintilla is disabled.

I don't understand your problem ?
- to add a new tab : right-click on panelgadget [client area, not tab] and select 'New tab' or 'Insert tab'.
- to select a panelgadget tab : left-click on panelgadget tab.

Could you post this project ? [Edit -> Copy project to clipboard, then paste into code tags in a new post]
