TextGadget(0,10,10,200,20,"THIS & THAT & NOTHING") ; <-- Gives "THIS  THAT _NOTHING"

Why?

the & in gadget's texts on Windows-OS is for marking the Letter for the Shortcut...

try && for a single ampersand...

You could also use :

Code: Select all

TextGadget(0,10,10,200,20,"THIS & THAT & NOTHING", #SS_NOPREFIX)

(windows only).

Maybe even the PureBasic IDE will use this flag also (let's wait for version 6.0), then you wont see "xx" but the correct "x&x" in the file tab for a loaded file "x&x.pb"
