Dialog XML creation - Changes in processing with PB5.40?
Posted: Sun Oct 25, 2015 1:53 pm
by Andre
Did anyone notice the same effect, that XML dialog definitions (and their related GUI created) worked with PB5.31 and don't work properly with PB5.40?
The following XML code is programmatically created by my application and displays well (with all gadgets and images inside the Scrollarea) when compiled with PB5.31. But it only shows the title and the scrollarea border (but not its content) when compiled with PB5.40....
Or could it be my fault, and anyone sees an error in the XML definition?
Thanks for your help!
Code: Select all

Hello Andre,
on Linux Xubuntu 14.04/32:
I added a
'name= ' to
<window id= to work with my routines ???,
but:
on PB5.31 it works
on PB5.40
gtk3: it works, but the gadget distances are huge,
gtk2: no slider is shown and only the following lines are shown:
Internationaler Name:
Zollverein Coal Mine Industrial Complex in Essen
Region:
Europa & Nordamerika
with huge distances, the Rest is missing.
Regards,
Charly

@Oma : Thank you for testing! As you also got different results, it should have something to do with different GUI creation on different systems. So the 'problem' is probably more related to the gadget creation than to the XML definition...!?
Beside that I don't think, that a name for the window is neccessary (instead / beside of using #PB_Any), as the window itself is correctly created everywhere...
Anyone more with Dialog experiences for testing? Thank you!

@Andre,
Tried your code on my MacBook Pro.
1. Flags an error unless the first line of the dialog - "<?xml version='1.0' encoding='ISO-8859-1' ?>" + - is removed.
2. Displayed window does not look right - most of the gadgets are not displayed.
Tried on Windows 7 - does not even display a window!

I had to remove the encoding from the headline,
I had to use unicode, then you can see the 'small' window when you place the mouse over the taskbar icon.
Strange.
I'll investigate this further.

Found it:
You used #PB_Window_WindowCentered
Replace it with #PB_Window_ScreenCentered and you see the window (Win7)
Now to the Gadgets ...

If you remove the ScrollArea you see the gadgets.

@infratec,
Thanks Sherlock!
Nearly went cross-eyed looking for the bug.
Edit: Just saw you last post.
Works fine, now.

Thanks Watson.
The main point is definately the ScrollArea.
Maybe Fred forgot to close the gadgetlist.
Btw. I didn't found any special help about dialogs.
Maybe I'm blind.
At the moment I can only guess about the complete syntax.
Any hints
Bernd

@
infratec,
Should the problem with the ScrollArea gadget be flagged as a bug?
Also on the Mac the ButtonImage gadget has a horizontal-flipped E. Windows 7 shows just a black button as would be expected.
Should this be flagged as a bug?

Thanks guys for your tests and comments.
As I'm currently only on my mobile phone I can't test myself.
But I would classify these problems as bug(s), as
- the gadgets were displayed inside the scrollarea with PB 5.31
- the not working window centering seems to be known, see
here
The other ones I can't say without more testing...

Hi,
window cenetering is working.
But you used WindowCentered without a parent window.
So ScreenCentered would be the right flag.

I reworked my code a bit (removed the Encoding line in XML definition + used encoding settings according to actual help example, removed the '...WindowCentered' flag even if PB5.31 didn't complain) and added example images to illustrate their reserved space better. And most important: deactivated the 'ScrollArea' which really seems to be buggy in PB5.40 (when used in a Dialog), as it worked without any problems with PB5.31 - will make a bug-report about this.... => see here:

The following XML code is programmatically created by my application
Do u have own XML designer? Can u share it?
