- UseMySQLDatabase() which use the opensource libmariadb.dll (found in purebasic\compilers\ dir) and brings MySQL and MariaDB support natively to PureBasic ! (sponsored by Paul)

@Fred :
It would be nice if, contrary to what you usually do, you'd release an immediate quick fix for the autoCompletion misplaced popup that still remains in the 5.70 beta 2. :(
That particular annoyance really gets in the way of using the IDE, which makes one want NOT to use the beta :? , which is very likely not your objective in releasing beta versions :D

Same here. It makes it too annoying to test at the moment. Sorry, Fred. :(

BTW, it's good to see that sponsoring is having a positive effect. :)

This is great - Thank you Fred!

Also saw the "sponsored by" in release notes. Thank you to the sponsors and to Fred and team for accepting that.

Would be great if we could have requested feature lists and pledges/contributions to help in making those features a reality - sort of like our own Kickstarter :)

very impressed by PureBasic team's focus and dedication through the years.

Someone should sponsor the PB team a 4K monitor :idea:

At the current state, the IDE should not be compiled with the DPI flag.

Thank you, Fred, for the extra effort and time.
Much appreciated.

[Edit : 2018-09-25, late evening in Canada]
Just got the fix (see Fred's message just below[/i])
Works perfectly on Windows 10, dispaly 1920x1080, DPI 125%.
Wonderful !
Also discovered that the Traveling Debug Output window feature ( :shock: ) has been nailed in place, thank goodness !
Is it Christmas already ?

That has to be the quickest PB fix ever !
Again, many thanks, Santa Fred

Thanks for the update. Qt on Linux is working much better.

The autocomplete popup works as expected on macOS High Sierra.

Pb 57b2x64 now works fine on Windows 10 Pro (10.0.17134), and on 2 different DPI's.
2560x1440, 175%
1920x1080, 100%

It now also seems to work well when switching between singel and mult-monitors. :D
The best preparation for tomorrow is doing your best today.
