How do I get AutoResize to work? The example includes the line:
Code: Select all
;TextEx::SetAutoResizeFlags(#Text, TextEx::#MoveY|TextEx::#ResizeWidth)
but if I remove the ; comment marker the results are still the same, with the displayed gadget still being 170 pixels wide.
(Using TextExModule version 19120800 with PB 5.71 LTS 64-bit under Windows 10)

I can't find a problem.

I misunderstood the purpose. I was expecting the gadget to be resized to match the required size, eg to match #PB_Gadget_RequiredSize.
How can I resize the gadget myself? It doesn't seem to have a SetWidth or Resize function (similarly for other modules).

Thanks. I didn't realise these native PB functions would work on the modules, but on checking this I see you use BindGadgetEvent() calls to catch and process these native functions. Brilliant!

@Thorsten1867,
Module TextEx
#Version = 19122900
#ModuleEx = 19112102
I have been using TextEx on my MacBook and have discovered a minor problem with your example:
The box with rounded corners appears to have rectangular box beneath it.
Also I have a question:
Is there some way making the text wrap if it is longer than the box, when #Multiline is specified?

Added: #GadgetColor for SetColor()
The box with rounded corners appears to have rectangular box beneath it.
This will delete the content of the CanvasGadget (= background color), if you have changed the background color, you can adjust it with #GadgetColor.
