I wish to use a ToolBarDropdownImageButtonEx as part of a checkgroup in my toolbarEX(). While it does technicaly work, the dropdown arrow isn't rendered, any solution?

I am even being spammed via PM.

Yeah me too

Somebody communicates with the developer? Bought a license online. and the key did not come

I don't think anyone has a way to personally get in touch with him.. If you read this thread you will see that he apparently has a very stressful daytime job, which he needs to make a living. Although I would have hoped he'd have the foresight to turn off new-orders until he was able to come back to ProGUI and develop it. This will just create more headaches for him.

Hi guys, sorry about the spam just found out about it and had to delete the forums
slagusev: Apologies, your keys have been emailed.

Yup as Zach said I have a lot on my plate at the moment and won't be able to actively develop for a while

Chris.

How can I resize or move a TextControlEx()?
ResizeGadget() seems not to work.

Thanks, I will add it to my Resizing-Modul

Does Standard Full Version of ProGUI compile statically with PB under Windows (XP and higher) or its .dll should be distributed, too?

If you copy the user library to your "PureBasic\PureLibraries\UserLibraries" folder and the ProGUI.res file to your "PureBasic\Residents" folder you don't have to distribute the dll.

GoodNPlenty,
thank you for making this clear. Two more questions, however, after reading this thread — 1) does purchasing ProGUI Standard via its home site today guarantees that I get my copy and keys without delay, or it is all but forlorn? 2) does this static linking functionality work with PB5.2 or I need to use some minor version of PB for full compatability with ProGUI?

Personally, I wouldn't gamble with making a purchase until / if Chris comes back. He's been gone a long time now.

It's a real shame he couldn't continue working on it because it was shaping up to be such a great, easy to use library.

He had a great development roadmap with great features planned, I think it would even have become cross platform eventually; working with ProGUI can be so much easier than OS API. I'm betting custom skinning he had planned would have made it a lot easier to make a consistent GUI-look across all platforms too.. Its too bad his financial situation forced him to look for real employment and he couldn't work on it full time.

You'd need to use an older version of PB built for ProGUI's static libraries. Otherwise you'd have to purchase a source code license so you could modify it so it worked with newer versions of PB.
