MDI Forms

Karbon · Post by **Karbon** » Mon Jun 02, 2003 3:22 pm

I know it's been brought up before as I've read some of the previous posts but I'd like some new(er) input..

apparently PB doesn't really support MDI forms out of the box but it seems there are other external libraries for such a thing.. http://www.hellobasic.com/pbsgplib.htm that's one that I've found but I'm unsure about it's use really.

Can anyone make any suggestions about doing (or not doing) an MDI app in PB?

Yes, I know VB does MDI apps pretty easily but I'd rather avoid VB if at all possible.

Thanks!

You may always discuss features of my code and/or products.

If you ever would be interested i can prepare an example for PureBasic.

Saves you the trouble of managing forms and childforms.
But you can always use plain API to do the same of course.

Edwin,

Hey Edwin, I'd love to see a quick example of how your libs make it easier to work with an MDI app.. If it does I'll have no problem forking over the $30ish!

Thanks!

It's $39 actually

Soon there will be a bonus part to this lib, a complete printpreview.
There is a beta with it available, see my forum..

I'll see about the MDI thing ok?

Fred, maybe you and El_Choni could take the code, tweak it here and there, make a library out of it and than sell it for $38

After that you can spend a nice weekend at the french coast with El_Choni on your side, and drink a nice beer

I think Fred has other priorities (or I hope so

As for me, I've been coding such a lib for six months (yes, very discontinued, I also had other priorities). But I don't have the guts to sell my buggy code, so I'll send it to Paul as usual when it's done.

And, about the coast, we have a nice one here, too. You choose, Fred XD (BTW, I'll visit Bretagne this summer).
