I wanted the images stored in the data section and in PNG format, not ICO. You don't have to convert the images to icons, you can do this instead: hIcon1 = CatchImage(#PB_Any, ?ChkImage) hIcon2 = CatchImage(#PB_Any, ?XImage) SendMessage_(GadgetID(0),#BM_SETIMAGE,#IMAGE_BITMAP,ImageID(hIcon1)) SendM...

I have absolutely no musical talent whatsoever (ask the guy who tried to teach me to play guitar for 3 years :D ), but your Chordian is a lot of fun, a great time waster, and a pretty amazing example of what a talented person can do in PureBasic. So far, everything seems to work fine on my Core i5 W...

Hello HeX0R!

I have an XLSX spreadsheet that causes your code to get stuck in a loop.

Would you be willing to look at this spreadsheet to try to figure out what's going on?
If so, I will send you a PM with a link to download it.

Thank you,
Eric

I just discovered that the problem is with PB 6.04 not with Windows
Tested fine with PB 5.72

That makes sense - I was testing with an older PB version also, so either way works.

I have tried all these examples with Win 11. The TextGadget is never transparent. Has anything changed with Win 11? I need a code to make various text gadgets (and if possible check box gadgets) transparent. That's odd - I'm running Windows 11 Pro and the text gadget is transparent with both #1 and...

You might want to take a look at ChrisR's "IceButtons Windows library" to give you some ideas: viewtopic.php?p=608752

Can't you just add a few leading and/or trailing spaces to each menu title? Like this: OpenWindow(0,0,0,1024,768,"Example Menu",#PB_Window_SystemMenu|#PB_Window_ScreenCentered) CreateMenu(0,WindowID(0)) MenuTitle(" Title 1 ") MenuTitle(" Title 2 ") MenuTitle(" Titl...

Chris,

I'm one of your 'early adopters', i.e., first purchasers of IceDesign.
This is a great addition and lets me add a little more 'bling' to my boring old forms.

Keep up the good work!

Eric

@jacdelad,

Thank you very much!
This is the simplest implementation of this I have seen, and it will come in very handy; actually, it already has

Regards,

Code: Select all

Define d.d = 123.5e-20
Debug Format("%d", @d)

Returns 0.

I assume that you have to specify the number of decimal places for floating point numbers: results in '0.0000000000000000012350'

Another suggestion: use #PB_Any to generate the IDs for the titlebar minimize/restore and close gadgets, rather than using fixed numbers (595, 596).

This should probably also be done for font IDs, image IDs, etc., so that the fixed numbers don't conflict with other gadgets.

@firace, I got your BetterLook source code - thank you!! I started experimenting and noticed that the path to the IncludeFile in the two examples contains an elaborate folder structure. Since I put the PBI file in the same folder, I changed it to: IncludeFile "betterlook.pbi" for convenien...

@wombats,

That's EXCELLENT - thank you!

Hi Fred,

That's pretty close, especially on Windows 11 where the title bar looks like it's the same size.
The close button is a little different, but I can probably live with that.

Thanks!
