It is recommended that PB will no longer post the beta version. For example, full version 6.20, 6.30, indicating that the official ourselves have a bigger more rigorous improvement.
full version 6.3 * represents small improvements. When users have small requirements and expectations, you can choose it.

I doubt that Mr. gurj knows what a beta version is ...

I think you're right, they seemed to be referring to minor versions, like 6.21, 6.22, etc...
For what reason? I do not know.

I tested several source codes with PB 6.21 beta 7 (x64) on Windows 11, and did not encounter any problems.

Many thanks

Thanks. My codes compile and work with beta 7.

I've compiled multiple large applications that use many internal PB libraries, as well as many API calls with beta7 on both Windows 10/11 IoT LTSC and macOS 15

No issues.

I just noticed the icons displayed with MenuItemImage are no longer a set size. Menubar dropdowns are showing varying size icons. Documentation still says the icons should be 16 x 16. I gather this is a new change.
The icon images in my programs are loaded with

Code: Select all

	Manualsicon:
	IncludeBinary "Stock\book-ico.ico"

and displayed with (example)

Code: Select all

If CreateImageMenu(0,WindowID(MainMenu))
	MenuTitle("File")
	MenuItem(31000,"Circulation",ImageID(Manualsicon))
	MenuItem(31001,"Search",ImageID(searchicon))
	MenuBar()
	MenuItem(#EXITBUTTON,"Close",ImageID(exiticon))
	MenuTitle("Edit")
	MenuItemImage(9272,"Backup",?mainmenubackupicon)
	MenuTitle("View")
	;MenuItemImage(9266,"Help desk message",?mainmenunotepadicon)
EndIf

Most of the icons are ico type. I tried ResizeImage but it returns an error saying the image type cannot be resized.
Is there any way to fix the icon size to 16x16?

Thank you Fred... and Chapeau !

I truly admire and appreciate your determination to quash those bugs.

It's getting harder and harder for them to hide...

Keep it up.

Thanks, Fred! I, too, find your bug squatting frenzy quite impressive lately, well done!
