It's only crashing if there is no entry in the grid control.
Fixed, thanks!

If you edit the Variable for ButtonImage Gadgets, it is not retained.

EDIT: ...Same if you edit the Variable for a copied gadget. For example, I draw a StringGadget, call it #Str01. Copy paste it four times, edit the copies to be #Str02, #Str03, #Str04, #Str05. The #Str01 var is retained but the copies "lose" their new names.

Can't reproduce this? Have you pressed Enter after editing?

Bug: When editing values inside the preferences box, and then clicking on the form changes are discarded. The only way you can edit preferences of a control is to hit enter at the end or clicking on another preference. And these areas need to scroll with the scroll bars (something that a fix should be already in the works).

I'll try to see if I can do something about it.

For the scrollbars, if you talk about the live scrolling, this is a Purebasic issue I'm afraid, I cannot make an easy fix.

Few glitch I have found :

In Preference setting Window : The ComboxGadget() used to select the panel position, the skin to use, and the Language should have the height set to 30. With the current height the current ComboBox content are not fully visible, we can only guess.

Linux Mint 13 + Gnome-Shell

Best regards

That's a distro specific problem. With the combobox set to 30 it now looks extremely unprofessional for all of the other OS's. You shouldn't be having Polo padd his box to solve this problem, you should be contacting the maintainers of the distro you use and report the bug. If it happens on all Gnome Shell then report the bug to gnome so it can be fixed right. If you take a second to look, you will realize your text in your combobox text is being padded at the top. Just look at all of the white space above your text inside the control. Its pretty obvious the text in your control does fit into the combobox, its just not aligned properly. So it is not a bug with the visual designer. I suggest the combobox go back to the default 20px before release (think about it 20px control, 12px text...).

Certainly have - but after restarting Form Designer, new file, it seems to be working fine.

"Duplicate" could do with a different icon and perhaps should not be next to "Paste" since, traditionally, "Copy" is next to "Paste".

......when I save file, why is the only option *.*?

If I save "MyFile.pb" I get "MyFile.pb.pbf"?

Massive job you have undertaken Polo, it's looking good.

No idea about the saving issue (regarding *.*), though the extension must be .pbf to avoid confusion (and also to avoid opening proper .pb files which could lead to loss of data).

The Duplicate toolbar button is likely to be removed when integrated in the IDE so I won't change it, it'll end up somewhere in the Edit menu I guess ;)

I think it's planned for the version that will come after 5.0 (or at least work is planned to start after 5.0 is released)

Hi Gaetan,
what's de difference between FormDesigner supplied with PB beta 4, and the one on your site ?
Both are entitled "FormDesigner 5.00 beta 3", but they don't have the same size...
Which one is the last version ?

Thanks

PS : I'm talking about the Mac OS X version
MacBook Pro 16" M4 Pro - 24 Gb - MacOS 15.4.1 - Iphone 15 Pro Max - iPad at home
...and unfortunately... Windows at work...
