No Visual Designer in PureBasic for Linux!!!!

but very beautiful indeed... Just played with PB on SUSE.

Guess I'll use PureVisionXP for the GUI.

PureVisionXP would be a good product if the license would not expire
as it stands it's useless.

Yup.
Reason is the toolbar used a windows lib toolbar pro from Danilo.

This is now already rewritten in plain PB code....

It's far from useless, all you have to do is send Paul a mail and he'll send you a new license. Usually doesn't take very long.

and you dont even have to pay!
its just for keeping away crackers..

Is anybody out there secretly working on a Linux designer? I guess it won't be a secret if you tell. I thought I remembered someone working on one last year but I'm to lazy to search for it...

then i guess most of us are to lazy to answer... sheez...

Gee- I thought you were doing that Beach.

Actually, I have considered making a Glade-to-PB converter, but it would still be essentially a Linux only tool, since Glade contains many Linux only components, i.e. the Gnome toolbar. It should be possible since Glade layouts are stored in XML.

But I still have the issue that many events that should work in Linux PB don't, such as no events on the ImageGadget.

uhh, nope... Can't reach that high, to far to fall...

Something simple would do, it would not need to be elaborate like PureVision.

Que? My license hasn't expire... I just mail for a new one when I have to install on a new machine.

I think it is a very good product!

No, the license usually arrives in a couple of hours. Very good support!

BTW, well, apart of the title of this thread , is this Offtopic

you can still design your forms on windows and uses them on linux (if you don't do a linux only program).

Yeah, that's what I will do - but I'll use PureVisionXP for now. The "switch Development Platform" is a very nice feature.

(and I've paid for it, so I'll better use it... )
