ButtonImageGadget disappears

Posted: Sun Apr 14, 2013 10:05 am

Hello everyone!

I just stumbled over this:
I've got 2 Button in a ToolBar. One ButtonGadget and one
ImageButtonGadget.

If I leave the window, enter it again an press one of the
following buttons, the ButtonImageGadget disappears:
TAB, SHIFT left, CTRL left, ALT,
ALT Gr, CTRL right, SHIFT right

The button reappears, if I hoover over the button.

Why disappears the ImageButton and how can I prevent
this?

Code: Select all

EnableExplicit

Enumeration
  #MainWindow
EndEnumeration

Enumeration
  #Toolbar
EndEnumeration

Enumeration
  #myImgButton
  #myNrmButton
EndEnumeration

Define Quit.i, Event.i

OpenWindow(#MainWindow, 10, 10, 300, 300, "Test")

CreateToolBar(#Toolbar, WindowID(#MainWindow))

ButtonImageGadget(#myImgButton, WindowWidth(#MainWindow)-30, 1, 24, 24, 0, #PB_Button_Toggle)
SetParent_(GadgetID(#myImgButton), ToolBarID(#Toolbar))

ButtonGadget(#myNrmButton, WindowWidth(#MainWindow)-60, 1, 24, 24, "", #PB_Button_Toggle)
SetParent_(GadgetID(#myNrmButton), ToolBarID(#Toolbar))


Quit=0

Repeat
Event=WaitWindowEvent()
Select Event
    Case #PB_Event_CloseWindow
      Quit=#True
  EndSelect
Until Quit

End

I did some more testing.

It seems, that there has been something changed since PB v5.0,
which causes the above mentioned disappearing of the gadget.

I tested versions 4.51, 4.60, 4.61, 5.0 and 5.11. All with x86 and
x64.

The ButtonImageGadget stays stable with versions 4.51 to 4.61.
In 5.0 and 5.11 (I didn't test 5.1) the gadget disappears.

My system is a Win7, x64 machine.

So the question is wether this is a bug or not. Any recommendations?

confirmed.

Test1:

* Starting your snippet
* Pressing <Tab>
-> The second buttons doesn't disappears.

Test2:

* Starting your snippet
* Moving the window to the center of my screen
* Pressing <Tab>
-> The second buttons disappears.
* Pressing <Tab> again
-> The second buttons reappears (and stays).

curious...

@ Kiffi
Thanks for your confirmation.

@ Rashad
Thanks for your workaround.
But this doesn't work. At least fo me. The gadget still disappears.

@ all
I did another test in a vmware XP environmet.
I run the exe from my PB v5.11, Win7 system.
There the gadget does not disappear.

So it has to do something with Win7 in conjuction with PB v5.xx.

Can I consider this a bug?

No, because the team has said in the past that overlapping items are not supported. You're putting buttons over a toolbar. This should be mentioned in the manual, though, so you don't have to find out in the forum like this.

Hi,

it's not only a Win7 problem.
I can confirm this behaviour for Win XP 32bit.

If it is a bug or not ....
I think only Fred, who knows the internals, can decide if it is a bug or not.

Use ToolBarImageButton() with the toggle flag, it's supported and will work.

I know. But how can I place the button to the far right
and keep it there when resizing the window?

Workaround:
Use a ContainerGadget and no Toolbar. Add your buttons with:

but Toogle is not supported!

Hi rrpl!

Thanks for your reply.

With your snippet the button stays on the window. Thats right.

But the problem was a ButtonImageGadget on a toolbar.
I already tried a ContainerGadget:
EnableExplicit

Enumeration
#myWindow
EndEnumeration

Enumeration
#myToolbar
EndEnumeration

Enumeration
#myContainer
#myButton1
#myButton2
EndEnumeration

Define Quit.i, Event.i


OpenWindow(#myWindow, 0, 0, 600, 400, "", #PB_Window_SystemMenu|#PB_Window_SizeGadget)
CreateToolBar(#myToolbar, WindowID(#myWindow))
ToolBarStandardButton(#myToolbar,#PB_ToolBarIcon_New)
ContainerGadget(#myContainer,WindowWidth(#myWindow)-60, 0, 60, 25)
ButtonImageGadget(#myButton1, 0, 1, 24, 24, 0,#PB_Button_Toggle)
ButtonImageGadget(#myButton2, 30, 1, 24, 24, 0,#PB_Button_Toggle)
CloseGadgetList()
SetParent_(GadgetID(#myContainer), ToolBarID(#myToolbar))


Quit=0

Repeat
Event=WaitWindowEvent()
Select Event
Case #PB_Event_SizeWindow
ResizeGadget(#myContainer,WindowWidth(#myWindow)-60,#PB_Ignore,#PB_Ignore,#PB_Ignore)
Case #PB_Event_CloseWindow
Quit=#True
EndSelect
Until Quit

End
I think, I have to fall back to PB v4.61. Even if I loose PostEvent() :( , but
get also rid of autocasting :D .

You could make the rest of the toolbar out of gadgets also, but only if it suits your purpose.

Code: Select all

EnableExplicit

Enumeration
#myWindow
EndEnumeration

Enumeration
#myContainer
#myButton0
#myButton1
#myButton2
EndEnumeration

Define Quit.i, Event.i

OpenWindow(#myWindow, 0, 0, 600, 400, "", #PB_Window_SystemMenu|#PB_Window_SizeGadget)
ButtonImageGadget(#myButton0, 1, 1, 24, 24, 0,#PB_Button_Toggle)
ContainerGadget(#myContainer,WindowWidth(#myWindow)-60, 0, 60, 25)
ButtonImageGadget(#myButton1, 0, 1, 24, 24, 0,#PB_Button_Toggle)
ButtonImageGadget(#myButton2, 30, 1, 24, 24, 0,#PB_Button_Toggle)
CloseGadgetList()


Quit=0

Repeat
Event=WaitWindowEvent()
Select Event
Case #PB_Event_SizeWindow
  ResizeGadget(#myContainer,WindowWidth(#myWindow)-60,#PB_Ignore,#PB_Ignore,#PB_Ignore)
Case #PB_Event_CloseWindow
Quit=#True
  
EndSelect
Until Quit

End
Must admit I have used the same toolbar/gadgets combination before in my own apps, so its a shame if it no longer works properly.

That would be a almost a complete rewrite of a grown program.
And toggle ist a must. Thanks anyway.

Thanks for your recommendations, but I think I will stick
with PB v4.61 for this program. And yes, it is a shame,
also because a "normal" ButtonGadget still works that way.

This works for me, as it did before PB v5.x.
The only(?) annoyance is the 'flash' of the main window,
when the button is pressed.
