Generate Event loop missing in preferences

[jph]

Hello,

I have only 4 checkbox in preferences -> Form.
The "Generate event loop" checkbox is missing but I have the "Generate event procedure" one.
How can I have the 5 checkbox like we can see in the Purebasic.pdf page 112 of the english version?
Thanks.

For the gadget you must first write the event procedures yourself in an extra file.
Then you can select them in the form editor

Or have a look at my EventDesignerV4 (Signatur).

MyEvents.pb

Code: Select all

Procedure EventButton(EventType)
  Select EventType
    Case #PB_EventType_LeftClick
      ;TODO
      
  EndSelect
EndProcedure

Procedure EventEdit(EventType)
  Select EventType
    Case #PB_EventType_Focus
      ;TODO
    Case #PB_EventType_LostFocus
      ;TODO
    Case #PB_EventType_Change
      ;TODO
      
  EndSelect
EndProcedure

All right. I am going to take a look at your work. And I will try to understand it. But it is the 3.15.5 in your one drive. There is no V4.

But I don't know why I haven't the Generate event loop checkbox in my preferences?

Thank you for your answer.

It was removed in Version 5.42 LTS. If I recall correctly this was because the code generated wasn't multi form aware and wouldn't work properly in projects with more than one form designer originated form. Two (or more) competing event loops would be created rather than a single harmonious one. This was, understandably, causing some confusion for form designer users, particularly new ones. The removal is mentioned in the historical change list but the documentation doesn't appear to have been updated fully to reflect this.

Thank you. I won't search no more.

Oops:
Event Designer v3.15.4 is right

Form Options:
- #PB_Any OFF
- Event Procedures OFF
