Form Designer 5.10

[Shardik]

Gaetan,

I have downloaded your modified Mac version. After starting "Form Designer.app" the following information is displayed:

PureBasic

The language 'Deutsch' cannot be found"
The default language will be used.

After clicking on OK and scrolling the wheel of my mouse the following error is displayed:

Code: Select all

A program error was detected:

Error Message:   Trace trap
Error Code:     5
Code Address:   -1870357961
Sourcecode line: 92
Sourcecode file: /Users/gaetandupont-panon/

The language warning is normal, I didnt include language files.
The error is on the WaitWindowEvent line - is the scrollwheel on that mouse working on other canvas gadgets?

You are right. It's not an error in your code but in the CanvasGadget. I will post a bug report in "Bugs - Mac OSX". Thank you for your ultra fast response, Gaetan!

Thanks! I was a bit worried to have a bug on the Mac, I've spent ages debugging the app on this OS

As a reminder:

For those who experience errors on windows can you do the same with this exe?

I downloaded the new Form Designer, and it worked as the previous one.
I replied just to inform you of a repeatable crash with this pbf file; setting splitter too small or too large (0 or 1000) causes a crash.
Is there any difference from the one which came with PB, that we should test?

Code: Select all

Enumeration #PB_Compiler_EnumerationValue
  #Window_0
EndEnumeration

Enumeration #PB_Compiler_EnumerationValue
  #Canvas_0
  #Canvas_1
  #Splitter_0
EndEnumeration

Procedure InitWindow_0()
  OpenWindow(#Window_0, 0, 0, 600, 400, "", #PB_Window_SystemMenu)
  CanvasGadget(#Canvas_0, 220, 60, 100, 200)
  CanvasGadget(#Canvas_1, 329, 60, 151, 200)
  SplitterGadget(#Splitter_0, 220, 60, 260, 200, #Canvas_0, #Canvas_1, #PB_Splitter_Vertical | #PB_Splitter_Separator)
  SetGadgetState(#Splitter_0, 100)
EndProcedure

Procedure Window_0_Events(event)
  Select event
    Case #PB_Event_CloseWindow
      ProcedureReturn #False

    Case #PB_Event_Menu
      Select EventMenu()
      EndSelect

    Case #PB_Event_Gadget
      Select EventGadget()
      EndSelect
  EndSelect
  ProcedureReturn #True
EndProcedure

InitWindow_0()

Repeat
  event = WaitWindowEvent()
Until Window_0_Events(event) = #False

No no difference, just compiled with OnError enabled basically!
I'll check the splitter problem soon, thanks for reporting!

Luciano, does this crash happen on Windows or Mac? I don't have it on OSX.
I'm adding a check so that you won't be able to set a splitter size that goes beyond the actual gadget size.

Well I have updated to the new PB5.0 and so far the IDE and Compiler work great on all my projects. How ever I still can not get the Form Designer to work. It starts to load then hangs up, with a Not Responding Error. I get the status bar button showing the program has started, but it never appears because of the Not Responding Error. Older versions of the Form Designer work fine. Even Pure Form works fine other then using the colors for buttons and such. I have tried to track down anything that has anything to do with the Form Designer to no avail.

It crashed under windows xp, I had no time to test with other systems.

Here is something from the Error Message:

Error message: Invalid memory access

Thanks Luciano, should be fixed!

The fact PureForm works has nothing to do with my app.
What statusbar are you talking about? There are none in the Form Designer. Are you launching the executable directly?

One thing that I really miss in the new form designer is support for tooltips.

Maybe I missed it, but if not this is really something essential!!

You're right, I'll put it on my todo list.

Gaetan,
something more for the todo list
multiple selection of gadgets (If I remember correctly, it worked in some older release);
buttonimage has the option for toggle, but the set gadget attribute line is not inserted;
and, last but not least, FD should have its own thread in the purebasic forum, now that it is the official designer for PureBasic.

[Polo]

Thanks, added to the todo list, hope i'll have the time to work on it this week!

Added Tooltip support for next version.

multiple selection of gadgets (If I remember correctly, it worked in some older release);

It seems to work here?

buttonimage has the option for toggle, but the set gadget attribute line is not inserted;

Is that line required?
