Thanks! My last two projects were done with PureFORM and it performed well.

Thank you

Hello:

I just downloaded your PureBasic Form Editor and after to execute it, it just got frozen.

When run, it shows a window telling that there is no preferences, I just click OK and then all got opened, but ...

- The only Windows able to do something are the Gadget Group Window, that only permit create groups and the Window_0 window, that only permit move it all around.

- The rest of Windows when you click on them, simply does anything and nothing inside them can be selected, moved, clicked or whatever. Also, no one of these windows can be moved to another place.

- To quit the PForm editor, the only way I have is go to the Task Manager and eliminate the process there.

I would like to know if I am doing something bad, or is just my computer, XP or something.

Thanks and keep the good work.

I sounds like something in your computer is simulating key presses ...!?
The Gadget Group Window only opens if you select it in the main menu or if you press F9. And as this window is modal, you can't do anything with the others windows until you exit the Gadget Group Window with the close button.
A user had a similar issue with an antivirus software.
Try do disable some of your other running software to see if it helps.
Sorry I can't help more.

You were right

F9 was the culprit. Some coffee was there.

That things happens when you are a cofffee addict. :D

Many thanks for your help.
Now I will begin to enjoy it

Regards!!

Hi gnozal,
could you please allow PureFORM to save a project without a Gadget?
I sometimes build a form with just a menu and a toolbar on it, and then I have
to create a dummy button just to save it :roll:
Thanks

Done (download updated).

Thank you gnozal...
(You should probably open a new thread for PF, this one gets a bit "overloaded" )

Hi Big G

Will you be adding support for the 4.1 drag and drop library anytime soon ?



Edit: and I know I asked before... but I cannot remember if there was an answer.... and I can't find it..... I must be getting OLD

anyway.... what was I talking about ?!

Oh, yes, any chance of supporting EasyVENT ?!

You mean the new events in the generated code?
Or something else ...?
Note that PureFORM source code is still PB3.94 !

Hmm, I don't use it myself, and I find it difficult to generate code for a library / include I am not familiar with.
But maybe sometime ...

So much to do, and so little (spare) time

hi gnozal
i try to use the multilanguage support in pureForm but when i select "Procedure" Option, PureForm can't generate LanguageItem procedure in the source code.
and LanguageItem is not PB function/macro or array message error appear
PS: Whith "array" no problem

Ahhh, I forgot that

Yes, I'd like the drag and drop functionality in PureFORM, but I guess we'll have to wait for you to move the source to PB4!

It's just a 'very nice event system' TM and makes life a lot easier for simple people like me

Hello Micko,

Gnozal built in the procedure-methode of the multilanguage support on my request (thank's again, Gnozal). He did this very quick, so there is no functionallity yet which generates a associated language procedure. You have to write such a procedure yourself. Maybe you have a look into the thread in the german forum (the important parts are written in english)
click me and see the last two post in the thread

@Gnozal: The last few days I had not much time for my project (we had a water damage in our house and my father suffered a stroklet - it was a badly week ), but when I finished creating a fast procedure for the new multilanguage support you will get the source.
I will try to use "FindString", "StringField" and an Array to replace the slowly loop in my first suggestion (see german board)

[Edit] One further suggestion for PureFORM: What do you think about a "[x] Do not generate eventloop code for this gadget"-option in the gadget properties window? Sometimes I have gadgets in my app, which are only intended for displaying values. No event interpretation is necessary. This option would make the eventloop more compact and may save some bytes in the resulting exe.

[Edit #2] I don't know if I remember correct, but was there an option "Do not generate event loop-code" in previous versions of PureFORM? I miss such a function yet.

Good idea, on the todo list.

There never was, but it's easy to add. On the todo list.

Yes, with the procedure option, you have to create your own function.
Note that PureFORM generates a 'dummy' function if you press the CodeView 'Complete code' button. This dummy procedure is only for form testing purpose (F6/F7 functions) ; it is not exported by the 'Save as code' function.
