The "custom gadget" is broken on this release but already fixed for next version.

Okay, a Template-File, good idea!

Much more easier to update

You have to restart FD so that the language is fully updated (I should add a message telling that).
(Language will work only if you put the executable in the purebasic package as I didn't include the catalog files in this intermediate release)
I changed the combobox height to 30 in next version, can't remember the height in this version.

I can't select any language other than english. Catalogfiles are on the right place, like on windows.
I have replaced the englishfile with german language, but no changes at all. I don't think the linux version make
any usage of the languagefile.
I think you have a path or a name (linux is casesensitiv) problem!
// edit
I have found the problem. You can't use GetCurrentDirectory or anythink, the path is not set, if i load the formdesigner
from the IDE! Use a Path based on "GetPathPart(ProgramFilename())"

Can't be case sensitive problem as the directories are dynamically parsed. I'll have a look!

Still a few bugs like reported before.
Sliding the properties slider all the way to the left causes 100% cpu.
The form properties is padding the window Width and Height by 2 when it shouldn't be (if you started the grid at the top left corner then you would have to be padded 1-2 px to get a proportionate window).
Also looks like the resize function for resizing the window inside the designer eats 100% cpu when resizing the window. Might need a Delay(1) in there somewhere to keep it from eating so much resources.

Is that important? It's using the available resources.

Can you be a little bit clearer or give an example as I can't see what you mean
Thanks for testing!

As you can see based on how you setup your grid you don't need to add the extra 2 pixels to the width and height. All that is doing is making the window too wide and tall by 2 pixels.

So the problem is only the grid not drawn correctly?
Because the actual gadgets both in the FD and in your compiled example looks correctly positionned.
The grid drawing should be fixed for next version (only happened on the Windows skin)

Weird, as the error line is in a drawing procedure.
I really need to get a setup of leopard working quickly

Wow, just had a look to the german forums, thankfully I can't read German, as all I could see through google translation was thoughtless non constructive comments about my app.
Unbelievable to have that kind of feedback for a free software.

Yes, that's it.
But Polo, don't think too much about comments of people, which are frustrated (for different reasons), haven't installed the right version and so mixed up the old VD with your new FormDesigner, etc.
One reason (beside my limited time), that I don't post on german forum most of the time...
Many people, even if they don't post any comments on the forum, are happy to see that the "official" GUI designer is developing...
