option to close the compiler window by default.

If there is an option for it; I've missed it.
The problem (if you can call it that) is that the compiler is sometimes too fast, I don't have enough time to check off "Close if no errors"

So the request is:
Keep the checkbox visible always, or allow it to be set thru preferences.

I don't understant the request

I think, he will some of the global debugger preferences adding to compiler-options, per file.

When I compile a small program the compiler shows a dialog window - in the lower left corner is a checkbox "Close if successful" (or words to that effect)

Since it compiles faster than I can move the mouse to thecheck box, I always have to close the window -- I'd like it so that checkbox always remains visible, so even when compilation is complete, I can check it OR have a global IDE preference "Close compiler window if successful"

[Fred]

Could you post a screenshot ?

While compilation is in progress, there is a checkbox in the lower left...
As near as I can tell; that's the only way to set that option...

Actually, having it always visible only solves half the problem: Then you can easily check the box, but you cannot unckeck it again because the window will close before you can hit it next time

The box was actually designed with larger projects in mind where this would not be an issue. The PB compiler is simply to fast!

I will look for a better place to put the setting in the next version. In the meantime, you can edit your project file with a text editor (while it is closed) and put the following into the "config" section:

Code: Select all

<buildwindow autoclose="1"/>
