goodies are appreciated... Anything you give us as loyal customers is appreciated.

But you have got to work on the core language. Standard controls are a necessity that needs to be addressed. Users shouldn't have to fiddle with the api just to get standard controls like sliders and such.

I'll continue to support PB and talk it up to friends and family and whoever else I think I can get to buy it because I know it's still maturing and right now it's still in it's child stages... But I'm gonna stick with VB and C++ for the time being while these things are ironed out and use PB for little tasks that I can whip together quick and dirty like console apps.

Of course the gadget library will be updated to support sliders, spingadget, RichEdit and more. I try to content everyone and I think than these controls aren't so important to build a good software. Don't forget: a good gui alone is crap software, a bad gui with useful software is a good software. A good gui and an useful software is an excellent software .

number = StringGadget(1, 5, 5, 100, 25, "")
SetWindowLong_(number, #GWL_STYLE, GetWindowLong_(number, #GWL_STYLE)|#ES_NUMBER)

You need to set it to $2000

Code: Select all

#ES_NUMBER = $2000
