Hi PureBASIC Team,

I found a different behaviour of SetActiveGadget() in Windows and Linux:

In Windows a StringGadget gets only the focus.
In Linux a StringGadget gets the focus and the text is selected.
(Since I can not decide in which OS it is a bug, I placed it here )


For me the last case was good.

But in general the behaviour should be the same in all OSs.
And I think it is a good idea to have an additional parameter at SetActiveGadget() to have the possibility if the text inside the gadget should be selected or not.

Best regards,

Bernd

As an option, yes. But don't select all by default. That's annoying sometimes,
for example when clicking the address bar of a web browser. Very annoying.
