Hello again,
With PB 6.30 B1, this code no longer work :
Code: Select all
If OpenWindow(0, 0, 0, 322, 205, "StringGadget BUG !", #PB_Window_SystemMenu | #PB_Window_ScreenCentered)
StringGadget(0, 10, 10, 200, 150, "aaaaaaa ",#ES_MULTILINE|#WS_BORDER|#WS_VSCROLL|#ES_AUTOVSCROLL|#PB_String_ReadOnly|#ES_WANTRETURN|#ESB_DISABLE_BOTH)
SetGadgetText(0,"absvdhfdhfh")
Repeat : Until WaitWindowEvent() = #PB_Event_CloseWindow
EndIf

What are all these Constants?
Only PB constants are officially supported!

For multi line output, you can try to use the EditorGadget()

The right way to do that is to use SetWindowLongPtr_() with the style flag

Hello Fred,
The #es_multiline style dont work with Setwindowlongptr_().
See windows api doc here :
https://learn.microsoft.com/fr-fr/windo ... rol-styles
The stringgadget multiline is usefull because of contextmenu with clipboard functions.
I need to create the control and this is not easy (for me, simple and old coder).
Code: Select all
hInstance = GetModuleHandle_(0)
HwndEditText = CreateWindowEx_(#WS_EX_STATICEDGE,"EDIT","",#WS_VISIBLE | #WS_CHILDWINDOW |#ES_MULTILINE|#WS_BORDER|#WS_VSCROLL|#ES_AUTOVSCROLL|#PB_String_ReadOnly|#ES_WANTRETURN|#ESB_DISABLE_BOTH, 10,10,280,120,WindowID(0),200,hInstance,0)
SendMessage_(HwndEditText,#EM_REPLACESEL,0,"Hello"+#CRLF$+"aaaaaa")
Again, PB update break working apps...

May be if you used the commands as documented, it wouldn't break ? Just an idea.

I will revert the change as it can't be modified after creation with SetWindowLongPtr()
