hbox fails inside frame

Hi,
I don't know if this is a bug or I'm doing something wrong. It worked before (<6.10 Beta 7, so I think this is a bug. If so, please move to bug section.
Modified example from the help:
Code: Select all
#Dialog = 0
#Xml = 0
XML$ = "<window id='#PB_Any' name='test' text='test' minwidth='auto' minheight='auto' flags='#PB_Window_ScreenCentered | #PB_Window_SystemMenu | #PB_Window_SizeGadget'>" +
" <frame text='Export'>" +
" <hbox>" +
" </hbox>" +
" </frame>" +
"</window>"
If ParseXML(#Xml, XML$) And XMLStatus(#Xml) = #PB_XML_Success
If CreateDialog(#Dialog) And OpenXMLDialog(#Dialog, #Xml, "test")
Repeat
Event = WaitWindowEvent()
Until Event = #PB_Event_CloseWindow
Else
Debug "Dialog error: " + DialogError(#Dialog)
EndIf
Else
Debug "XML error: " + XMLError(#Xml) + " (Line: " + XMLErrorLine(#Xml) + ")"
EndIf
this code fails, when I put a hbox (or maybe other elements) into a frame. Tested with Windows 10/both backends/x86 and x64.

AH, I oversaw that. Seems like I need to wait for Beta 8. Thanks, mk-soft!

I stopped using the dialog library because I found a bug that prevented me from doing what I needed, some time later I started it again and another bug prevented me from continuing, since then I no longer use it and I make my UIs with IceDesign.

As good as IceDesign is (and it's really good), I now prefer dialogs, because some thing happen here automatically. But I agree, that I'd love to see an overhaul, because you need some tricks to certain stuff (like gadgets with additional windows flags and such).

If you refer to things like: Hbox, Vbox... IceDesign and her proportional relative to parent can do (almost) most of them.
But... yeah anyone should use the most interesting to him

Automatic resizing/rearranging too?

Yes! well, not full rearanging, you must try to know if it works for you
