v1.99 build 312

Crash:
The "ListIconGadget" must have one or more flags to be checked, or it will be crashed.
("#PB_ListIcon_MultiSelect" especially)

v1.99 build 312

Problem: "StringGadget".
I try to turn all flags on, then turn them off.
The PureFORM can't refresh correctly, and it start to waste the cpu resource.

Update (build 314)

Changes :
- fixed bug in gadget flags selection

Thanks for your help...PureFORM works very well now.

Cannot wait to see what PureForm 2.0 would look like...

Hey I have a question about adding gadgets to a panel. I Have a window with a panel gadget in it that has 5 tabs. I originally added gadgets in each tab as I created them and it worked perfectly. After doing a bunch of coding, I added a couple of text gadgets after going to the tab in the panel I wanted them in, but PureForm seems to only add them to the Window. I tried doing the "temp copy" procedure in the help, but it always seems to add the gadgets to the Window instead of the panel. If you add the gadgets right when you create the panel, however, it works fine. Is there another procedure to get the gadgets to be added "under" the specific tab in the panel?

And forgive me if this has been answered, but the search function simply brings up the entire thread.

Sounds like a parent gadget / window issue.

No, simply switch to the desired tab and draw the new gadgets on the tab client area.
Did you try using the context menu (add gadget) on the panel gadget client area instead of using the gadget bar ?
This may be a bug, but I can only help if you post / send me your project (PBF file or copy your project to clipboard and paste it between code tags into forum).

Okay, I know I'm not going nuts but I just tried it to confirm and it worked? I spent about 20 minutes trying a few days ago and I know that everytime I went to add a gadget on the tab it would add it, but when I'd look at other tabs it was there as well. I'll try to retrace all of my steps though.

Using the menu doesn't seem to work at all. I tried adding text and button gadgets thru the "Add gadget" menu on the tab, but nothing seems to happen when I do.

Seems to be working for what I need to do, although the add gadget part thru the menu isn't working. Thanks for the reply.

Just tried out "Translate from source" and it imported almost everything perfectly from my huge Address book project. Will you be adding translating menus, statusbars and adding of columns to listicongadgets as well from the source in the future?

This could save heaps more time for me.

No context menu when right-clicking on the panel gadget client area (not on the tab itself!) ?
From this menu you only select the gadget class, you still need to draw the gadget.

I am not sure... much work !

/me bows to Gnozal, the coding machine. Thank you for what you have done so far!!

Update (build 316)

Changes :
- fixed broken support for PB4.20 menu icons in generated code (was only working with PureCOLOR)
- fixed seldom random crash after adding a new gadget (I hope)

hi gnozal,

there's a small bug when moving a gadget which is inside a panelgadget. seems that 'non' parent window are not repainted.

Yes, I know about this. To avoid flickering, the 'non' parent window is only redrawn when you release the gadget. Maybe I find a way to do better.
But it's just a cosmetic issue.
