"Yet Another" or "Just Another"? :D

Seems solid, a few possible improvements:

* Descriptions of each gadget as you keep the cursor over each gadget button

* When a certain gadget is selected (e.g. ComboBox) keep the button held down

* The text that say "ID" next to the window ID text box seems to overlap the text box itself, placing an ugly grey square over it

* If the grid is enabled, but you minimize the window that youre working on, when you maximise it the grid is gone even though its selected

Overall though, seems solid :)

Looks like you off to a good start, great job zikitrake. Are you working on more features?

(More gadgets and now you can modify propierties in the propierties panel)

I am having problems with the spingadget, someone knows because there happens what happens?



Thank you For comment

Very nice!

Toggling the grid hides the gadgets and generating the source crashes the program (Win XP SP 2) but it looks like a nice program :D

yaPBVD does lock after generating the code (which I am able to use) - it's as if a dialog window is open but I do not see one. I have to use the task manager to close yaPBVD.

I am using Windows XP with SP1

Also, It would be cool if there was an option to include a loop, not a big deal but it would be nice.

No issues here now, it just keeps getting better and better. :) Its going to be hard to switch from PureVision, however, I will probably use yaPBVD for doing quick apps.

Good work man!

It's looking great! If you click on the close button of a window is it possible to open the window again? Does Ventano mean window and i assume Propiedades means properties?

With a few more features it'll catch up with Visual Designer very soon :-D

I do not claim that you change :D

Not for now :?, In the next versions I expect to include this option.

bye

Would it be possible to test the form compiling "on the fly" the source and executing it directly from your editor?

Good job, love free software :)

I remain with your idea for a future version.

Just thought I would add to the wish list...

Now that you have the ability to save the project files, it would be nice to be able to associate the ".yav" files to the app so one could just double click the project file to bring up the project. I do this now with the "programparameter()" function.

Oh, and it would be nice to have a repeat loop option with all the gadgets for lazy folks like me... :)

Thanks!
