[PB 4.30 Final] Visual Designer generates CreateGadgetList()

[Little John]

I wrote it already some time ago in another place, but I suppose it's better to post a note in this sub-forum, too.
In PB 4.30, the Visual Designer shouldn't generate a CreateGadgetList() command any more.

The old VD that is still included wit the current PB versions is EOL
No more changes will be done.

[Rook Zimbabwe]

So are any new versions planned?

So are you going to release it to someone else to maintain? When you first
took it over we expected regular updates, but it's been obvious for some time
that you don't have time for it anymore, and now proved by your above comment.
So the team should release it to somebody else, IMO.

We have plan to update the VD for a next version (crossplatform in mind).

No, Fred has already stated some months ago that he will continue the VD development

[Tipperton]

Delete or comment out two whole lines of generated code to fix it.

I can live with that for now.

@PB-Team:

I think, I´m not the only one, who likes the current VD like it is -> Is it that much work to re-compile the current standard-VD for PB4.40? It also should work on Win 7 and Vista without setting the useraccountsettings to the lowest level....

The VD is just a tool to save time, when creating an app-window...nothing more...so the standard-VD is enough and very good.
...would be great!

thx

PS: I know, you wanna not develop the current VD anymore, but...

Fred could you give us an idea of when we might see a new version of the VD introduced?

[Fred]

It's planned.. But we want to do it right so it will take some time.

[Trond]

Do you plan a way for gadgets to automatically resize (similar to native gtk) or won't this happen?

[Fred]

You will see

If the VD will be enhanced in the future, I'd like to get some additional functions for the output file format, just some ideas here...
• allow adding ;AddGadgetTooltip(#Gadget,...)
• allow relative positions to a master gadget for faster fine tuning (output uses constants for positions)
• allow different auto naming systems for gadget constants (e.g. #Dialogname_Gadgetname, #Gadgetname
