multiple selection:
I am using the FD version one which came with PB 5.00 final (but FD still reports as "Purebasic Form Designer 5.0 beta 3"), I don't know if there is a more recent version.
When I try to select gadgets with CTRL key pressed, I see a menu with delete, copy... allign etc but nothing is selected.

toggle button:
I think that a second line is required to insert a new image for the pressed state; here is a toggle button as appeared when created with PureForm:

Code: Select all

    ButtonImageGadget(#ButtonImage_KEY, 9, 345, 67, 50, CatchImage(#Image_ButtonImage_187, ?Image_ButtonImage_187), #PB_Button_Toggle)
    SetGadgetAttribute(#ButtonImage_KEY, #PB_Button_PressedImage, CatchImage(#Image_ButtonImage_187_Pressed, ?Image_ButtonImage_187_Pressed))

Oh ok, sorry I fixed that but not in the version shipped with PB, will work on next version!

I see what you mean for ButtonImage now, thanks!

Where are the latest version? PB shipped only beta 2 on linux and the download on your site doesn't work.

The latest version should be shipped with Purebasic (though it should say beta 3 in the title bar).

The last SVN update might not have been used when compiling 5.00 final I guess, sorry! :oops:

Sounds like it. Will be solved in the next major release.

It starts to load then hangs up, with a Not Responding Error. I get the status bar button showing the program has started, but it never appears because of the Not Responding Error. Older versions of the Form Designer work fine. Even Pure Form works fine other then using the colors for buttons and such. I have tried to track down anything that has anything to do with the Form Designer to no avail.
The fact PureForm works has nothing to do with my app.
What statusbar are you talking about? There are none in the Form Designer. Are you launching the executable directly?
My error, I meant button on the taskbar. I have tried to start the form designer from both from the IDE and directly. How ever like I said, all the older versions work fine. Version 5 worked for a few times until I changed a few settings in the preferences. After that it has refused to run. If you have any suggestions I would be great full.

I think the Form Designer should launch from the IDE. Currently, PureForm gets launched on my PC instead. I want to retain PureForm for legacy forms, but surely Form Designer should have the launch 'bragging rights', or at least we should be able to choose which designer is launched.

If it sounds simple, you have not grasped the complexity.

Just go into the preferences and change which form editor you want the IDE to load. Just click on File, Preferences, and under the general tab you'll see the visual designer load. Just change it to what ever your prefer.

As Cage said you can change it in your IDE preferences :)

Does anyone else think the numeric fields would be better as spin gadgets?

...also, shouldn't this post be moved to the Visual Designer section?

Sorry, but where can I get the version with the latest changes. Guess I missed the according post.

@Polo maybe you can add this info in the first post? There I can only find the link to your website which has the beta3 for download.

Thanks
Bye Karl
