Greetings from Newbie.
I downloaded pb. The visual ide is wonderful.
I put a bunch of controls onto the form and tried to compile to see how the code connects to the controls. But nothing.
Is there a real short tutorial or small pgm I can download, & tinker with?
Thanks!

Hi.

I don't use the Visual Designer, but to my knowledge it outputs a code skeleton.

for an impression how the eventloop has to be implemented, you can have a look at the examples in the help,
e.g. in the Paragraph to WaitWindowEvent: http://www.purebasic.com/documentation/ ... event.html

there are also examples all over the forum, i.a. in this discussion: http://www.purebasic.fr/english/viewtopic.php?t=25081

Look for 'Project Options' on the menu bar and click 'include event loop'. This provides a basic loop that will then display your dialog.
