form designer not there?

Post by Randy Walker »

I just installed PB v6.20 and was checking it out for the first time.
I clicked [Tools] >[Form Designer] and nothing happened.
Is that normal?
Am I missing something?
I'm on fully updated Windows 11 Pro 23H2

Right, menu and shortcut won't open, as won't creating a new .pbf file
Workaround: open/reopen an already existing .pbf file.

Any idea where I find one of those?

This is normal, Tools > Form Designer is used to activate/show tab 'Form' (in the ToolsPanel)

To create new form do: Form > New Form

Details :wink:

Thanks Marc56us That clarifies it all perfectly. I've always had the frame on the right squeezed closed so my code has more real estate and that form tab was just never visible.
