PureFORM 1.99 (yet another FORM designer)

[gnozal]

Update (build 398)

Changes :
- improved splittergadget management and code generation

[Kurzer]

Yeah, it was a hard work, wasn't it?

But the 'gruesome' Kurzer is back... with a minor issue in his luggage.

If you change the current selected entry in the gadgetlist (Integrator) by cursor up/own, then the gadget properties will not be refreshed (at the bottom of the Integrator).
Only when you activate an entry by mouseclick, then the properties will be refreshed.
(I think if I were you, I would have killed the silly green frog already)

ciao, Kurzer

Btw: The new PureFORM.flag feature works great!

Fixed in build 399.

Thank you gnozal - this works great now.

But I would not called Kurzer, if I had no new bug for you.

Gadgetproperties -> Extra -> Font
It seems your generated values for the font style are not longer valid.
You should generate the constance instead (#PB_Font_Bold, #PB_Font_Italic, #PB_Font_Underline, #PB_Font_StrikeOut, #PB_Font_HighQuality)

Bye Kurzer (never getting bored with Kurzer)

... You should generate the constance instead (#PB_Font_Bold, #PB_Font_Italic, #PB_Font_Underline, #PB_Font_StrikeOut, #PB_Font_HighQuality)

Added #PB_Font_* flags in generated code in build 400.

Hi gnozal.

A little issue in PureFORM.

When I use "Save as code..." from "Project" menu, two types of file are available : "pb" and "pbi".

I choose "pbi", I use PureFORM and when I want to update code in source, the following error message appears : "Could not read file D:\Developpement\Projets\PureBasic\400\TestPureForm.pb".

PureFORM wants a "pb" file, despite the fact I choosed a "pbi" file for saving the code.

Actually, PureFORM saves this information in the PBF file ('SaveAsCode' field), but for some reason I forgot to use this information in the 'Update code in source' function.
This should be fixed in build 402.

Thanks, it works.

Another issue : the "Update window / gadget props in source" option in the "Project" menu does not work with a "pbi" file (this works with a "pb" file).

Same issue.
Should be fixed in build 403.

Adresses of icons in Tab gadget doesn't work with absolute path
There the generated code for 3 Tab icons well selected with PureForm selector but not recognized when compiling and running (F6):

Code: Select all

   ; ORIGINAL FILE NOT FOUND : "D:\Data\Programmation\PureBasic\Musique\Lecture\02\shell32_engrenage.ico"
  IncludeBinary "D:\Data\Programmation\PureBasic\Musique\Lecture\02\shell32_engrenage.ico"

Adresses of icons in Tab gadget doesn't work with absolute path

I can't reproduce the issue.
Could you test the latest PureFORM build (404) and post your form ?

[DoMi]

Thanks for your reply
1) I just downloaded and intalled the latest build (404)
2) I delete the 3 references to the icon files in the tab gadget
3) I reload the same references
4) It works now!

However I'm not sure of what corrected the issue!?
- new build
- resetting the icon files adresses in the PureForm editor...
... sorry

Thanks a lot

P.S.: do you consider a x64 version of JaPPe?
I do appreciate your helpfull tools for PB!

[gnozal]

However I'm not sure of what corrected the issue!?

Neither do I.

P.S.: do you consider a x64 version of JaPBe?

Not at the moment, because : jaPBe is written in PB3.94, I don't have a Processor / 64bit OS, not too much time for this ....

Hi, I'm new on PB but i come from VB6, using this Form designer i found a BUG when translate from source.

My source are using Multi Language support and all Gadget are show like 'Language$(x)'.

Another thing is Font size, my source have some predefined Fonts and PureFORM ignore all.

Great job, keep working.
Thank you in advance.

[gnozal]

Hi Vitor_Boss®,
as stated in the help file, the 'Translate from source' feature is incomplete, it only imports windows and gadgets (missing : statusbar / menu / tooltips / etc...) .
It may be improved, but it will never be perfect, as PureFORM handles some data it's own way.
