Need to fix warning message concerning handler definition

[RitchieF]

Hi Larry,

I have a feature wish :

either an adjustable grid with snapping which could help positiong of controls with out having to look at the numeric values

or

putting a colored rectangle around all controls at design time, whether they are selected or not to support positioning.

Or perhaps both

Thanks,

Richard

EDIT: Both wishes are done and will be in next release

[LarryMc]

thanks Richard
I will look into both when I go back to revisit IWB+.

[RitchieF]

Please have a look at the Auto Indent routines ot the code editor, too.

Doesn't work here.

Thanks

Richard

EDIT: Auto Indent and AutoComplete are done and will be in next release

Thanks for the feedback

I'll make the grid an option so those who don't want controls to snap to the grid alignment don't have to use it.
Also, people who want to use it will have different ideas about how big the grid dimensions will be so that value will have to be an option

Leads to a question:
Should only the upper left corner snap to a grid coordinate and the height/width of the control stay the same or should the lower right corner also snap to grid?

I'd say only the upper left and let the width/height stay what the user has set to the default preference and/or what the user has set them to.

Need ya'lls opinion.

[RitchieF]

I'd say only the upper left and let the width/height stay what the user has set to the default preference and/or what the user has set them to.

In my opinion this would be okay

All previous wishes prior to this date and posted in this thread are done and will be in the next release

The release will be made as soon as the documents are updated.

Hi Larry,

what about a menu entry and button to open the IWBasic help file ?

Thanks

Somebody  (I don't know who ) needs to read the IWB+ Help File (or at least look at
the IWB+ main menu Editors/Help Menu and Editors/Tools Menu.)

Maybe reading the features list here
will provide insight.

Sorry, I know I'm being tacky but I just couldn't resist!! 
Today I've been married 46 years and I've been full of it all day.

LarryMc,

Congratulations on such a long, and hopefully, happy marriage.
Kinda wish I could say the same. Been at it five times in 66 years.

May you have 46 more.

Bill

P.S. Thanks for 1.04

RitchieF has reported a bug that causes IWB+ to crash.
I've duplicated the problem and as soon as I get it fixed I will be releasing a new version.

[RitchieF]

Thanks for V1.05 !

Works fine here

Larry,

Love your avatar - a very distinguished gentleman .. 

I've put mine up for a while - I think I prefer Pooh Bear 

Best wishes,

Graham

[LarryMc]

I think you need to leave your picture up, instead of pooh bear.

If I select from the menu 'Save Project as' or from the toolbar 'Copy Current Project' IWB+ loads the project again using the new name of the project.
But in the Code Editor the listbox shows now some  *.IWB files with the first 3 characters of the filename missing so you can't load them again.

Please have a look

Larry,
I was attempting to create a dialog window last night, and when I pressed the "Test" button,
it showed my dialog as a full window, with no borders, and no titlebar. Is this normal behaviour?

Depends..
What boxes, if any, did you have checked in the properties dialog?

[RitchieF]

Larry,

clicking the - sign in front of SUB to fold the code folds the code but complete from here to the end of the code.

Is this correct ?

folding is controlled by iwb+SciLexer.dll
it is written in c; I don't know c or have a c compiler.
added it to my list of things to do to see if I can make the dll that comes with IWBasic work
thanks for the feedback

UPDATE: After a quick check it appears doable but will be a major programming effort so it won't happen anytime soon.
