Anyway, did you check the custom gadgets feature ? You can easily add the Canvas Gadget...

You can't.
PureFORM only supports the 'Window' library, not the 'Screen' library.

Hello Gnozal,

Pureform offer the possibility to add an icon beside the text on a panel. Is there any possibility to insert larger icons e.g. 32 x 32 ?

kind regards

Michel

I have updated PureFORM.
It is now possible to set a PanelGadget's tab width and height in 'Gadget Properties'.

Hello Gnozal,

INCREDIBLE !!!!

thank you

Hi Gnozal, is possible to add option "WordWrap" for editor gadget?
I add this code manually for enable wordwrap everytime i need it: SendMessage_(GadgetID(#Editor), #EM_SETTARGETDEVICE, #Null, 0)

Thank you

Am I just missing the way to AddKeyboardShortcut() to gadgets in PureForm? It has so many features, I have to believe I'm just not looking in the right place.

Thanks... and thanks for a neat tool!

PureFORM only supports keyboard shortcuts for menus.
For gadget keyboard shortcuts, you may add the code manually using code infusion (Location:Window event, Event: Window creation)

Unfortunately, if you don't have a menu, it will not insert the code infusion for the keyboard shortcuts or menuevents...or maybe I am missing it. I cannot express how much I HATE it when Escape does not close a dialog box or sub-window in a program, so all of my programs have that behavior.

I started using this for my current project, and aside from this, I have only found a few issues that I have yet to find workarounds for:

This current project is for a Preferences tab for another, larger project. It appears that PF is not really set up to accommodate for that, because it is expecting it to be the whole program, rather than just an included procedure. I inserted "Procedure DoPrefs()" in the "Before event loop" code, but there is not "After event loop" place to put an "endprocedure"

The Case statements for the EventGadgets() do not allow inline code, and instead, it calls a separate procedure. This prevents the use of Local variables or Break statements...?

A minor thing is that every text gadget requires a variable or constant name. Sometimes you just want to display some text with #PB_ANY and discard the return value.

[edit] I almost forgot; I regularly experienced crashes when using the keyboard to scroll through the "Object:" listbox in Code infusion.

If I'm missing some workarounds for this, I'd appreciate some tips. If this is open source, I don't mind adding a few features.

Thanks.

You are right, I didn't think of that.
There is no workaround, sorry.

You could change the gadget enumeration template in 'Preferences->Code->Gadget enumeration' to 'WinEnum/Class/Nb' for example.

Gnozal i'm BLIND, i checked preference and not see this option before, sorry, next time i check more accurately, thank you!!!!

Hi gnozal, my question is: is possible in pureform when i create Stringgadget to select max number of char? for example SendMessage_(GadgetID(#String_0), #EM_LIMITTEXT, 5, 0) i limit number of chars for string gadget, you add this option in pureform?
Thank you
