Tested on Windows 11:
Code: Select all
#WINDOW_MAIN=1
#WINDOW_ADD_EDIT=2
#WINDOW_FLAGS_DESCRIPTION=3
OpenWindow(#WINDOW_MAIN,0,0,100,100,"Main window",#PB_Window_WindowCentered)
w=(1024-800)+(800-640)+640-10
h=200-50-20-20+100+100+200-30-30-30+10+120+10
OpenWindow(#WINDOW_ADD_EDIT,0,0,w,h,"Add a word",#PB_Window_WindowCentered,WindowID(#WINDOW_MAIN))
DisableWindow(#WINDOW_MAIN,#True)
w=WindowWidth(#WINDOW_ADD_EDIT)/2
h=WindowHeight(#WINDOW_ADD_EDIT)
x=WindowX(#WINDOW_ADD_EDIT)+w
y=WindowY(#WINDOW_ADD_EDIT)
OpenWindow(#WINDOW_FLAGS_DESCRIPTION,x,y,w,h,"Display flags description",WindowID(#WINDOW_ADD_EDIT))
Delay(10000)

Confirmed here on Win 11, too. It's because of the ParentID() flag, because if you remove it then you get no horizontal scroll bar (see below).
BTW, I'm using 6.10 so it's not a new 6.30 beta bug.
Code: Select all
#WINDOW_MAIN=1
#WINDOW_ADD_EDIT=2
#WINDOW_FLAGS_DESCRIPTION=3
OpenWindow(#WINDOW_MAIN,0,0,100,100,"Main window",#PB_Window_WindowCentered)
w=(1024-800)+(800-640)+640-10
h=200-50-20-20+100+100+200-30-30-30+10+120+10
OpenWindow(#WINDOW_ADD_EDIT,0,0,w,h,"Add a word",#PB_Window_WindowCentered,WindowID(#WINDOW_MAIN))
DisableWindow(#WINDOW_MAIN,#True)
w=WindowWidth(#WINDOW_ADD_EDIT)/2
h=WindowHeight(#WINDOW_ADD_EDIT)
x=WindowX(#WINDOW_ADD_EDIT)+w
y=WindowY(#WINDOW_ADD_EDIT)
OpenWindow(#WINDOW_FLAGS_DESCRIPTION,x,y,w,h,"Display flags description");,WindowID(#WINDOW_ADD_EDIT))
Repeat : Until WaitWindowEvent()=#PB_Event_CloseWindow

Buaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
and if I:
Code: Select all
; The editor gadget
EditorGadget(#WINDOW_FLAGS_DESCRIPTION_EDITOR_GADGET,10,10,100,100,#PB_Editor_ReadOnly)
It opens in the parent window and not in the window I have just opened.
I am so sad.

If it is a bug, could a moderator move the post to the bugs section?
Thanks!

Hi marcoagpinto,
Sometimes you just need to slow down, take a breath and review your code.
You're missing the
Flags parameter before the
ParentID parameter.
• Also resolves your EditorGadget hiccup; don't be sad
Code: Select all
#WINDOW_MAIN=1
#WINDOW_ADD_EDIT=2
#WINDOW_FLAGS_DESCRIPTION=3
#WINDOW_FLAGS_DESCRIPTION_EDITOR_GADGET=4
OpenWindow(#WINDOW_MAIN,0,0,100,100,"Main window",#PB_Window_SystemMenu|#PB_Window_WindowCentered)
w=(1024-800)+(800-640)+640-10
h=200-50-20-20+100+100+200-30-30-30+10+120+10
OpenWindow(#WINDOW_ADD_EDIT,0,0,w,h,"Add a word",#PB_Window_SystemMenu|#PB_Window_WindowCentered,WindowID(#WINDOW_MAIN))
w=WindowWidth(#WINDOW_ADD_EDIT)/2
h=WindowHeight(#WINDOW_ADD_EDIT)
x=WindowX(#WINDOW_ADD_EDIT)+w
y=WindowY(#WINDOW_ADD_EDIT)
OpenWindow(#WINDOW_FLAGS_DESCRIPTION,x,y,w,h,"Display flags description",#PB_Window_SystemMenu,WindowID(#WINDOW_ADD_EDIT))
OldGadgetList = UseGadgetList(WindowID(#WINDOW_FLAGS_DESCRIPTION))
EditorGadget(#WINDOW_FLAGS_DESCRIPTION_EDITOR_GADGET,10,10,100,100,#PB_Editor_ReadOnly)
UseGadgetList(OldGadgetList)
Repeat
Event = WaitWindowEvent()
Select Event
Case #PB_Event_CloseWindow
Select EventWindow()
Case #WINDOW_MAIN : Break
Case #WINDOW_ADD_EDIT : CloseWindow(#WINDOW_ADD_EDIT)
Case #WINDOW_FLAGS_DESCRIPTION : CloseWindow(#WINDOW_FLAGS_DESCRIPTION)
EndSelect
EndSelect
ForEver
