WinFBE on GitHub

... but with SELECT CASE.

The editor crashes if I try to load shobjidl.bi in it. Must be a parsing problem.

Hi Paul,

I've finally tested your very nice editor...
Great Job
I wanted to get it in French, so here my translation as I understood the process

I've noticed few points   

00122:Show left margin   for me it would be >   Show marging Bookmarks
00127:Tab Size:       i don't understand why the ':'  or  that textbox not well positionned  ( and for french  'Taille de tabulation'   does not fit)

[Paul Squires]

Excellent - thanks Marc, really appreciate the French translation. I am adding it to the distribution.

Hi Chris, there is a later version, (dated 25th July) on github. some had problems with the earlier version http://www.planetsquires.com/protect/forum/index.php?topic=4178.0

[Paul Squires]

I will upload a new complete package either tonight (July 27) or tomorrow. Just need to re-engineer the prepares codetips in order to avoid that GPF issue users have been experiencing. In the meantime, simply edit the WinFBE.ini and set codetips = 0

[ChrisC]

thanks all
downloaded the Jul 25 and set codetips=0  and now it is working

Hi Paul, can you put in a txt list of properties you've listed, but not yet implemented for the various designer tools e.g. button textmargin (and I think you need property for button backcolordown.

added - also in edit, selection of copy,cut, paste not working, although cntrl c etc ok.

[ChrisC]

thanks Paul

Your WinFBX is absolutely awesome, hope that you can come up with a similar IDE for Oxygenbasic

the combination of WinFBE and WinFBX is the best combination for FB development in windows environment

[ChrisC]

Maybe add more information on your tooltips for the icon bar

for example  at the Top left button on the icon bar  --> set the tooltips  as  Create  New file using templates (Ctr + N )
                                                                      instead of just  New (Ctr + N )

this is especially true if the user is a beginner like myself

There seems to be something odd with the right mouse button. The copy/paste/etc menu worked earlier today, then I copied some code from notepad, and could not paste using mouse. this was in winfbe32. I opened winfbe64 and right button menu worked fine in there.  I restarted fbe32, still not working, rebooted machine, still not working in winfbe32, but ok in winfbe64.. This is in the so-called operating system known as windows10. This morning, the shortcuts to winfbe had disappeared, and the programs would not run, as in earlier version. I opened the ini file, and it was empty!. In the past, windows updates have removed shortcuts and other stuff, but I don't think that is what has happened in this case. Is there an ini or other setting for the mouse right button?

[Paul Squires]

Hi Ray, that was an error in the code. I have it fixed now. Thanks for pointing out the problem.

I have installed the latest WinFBE suite and tried the visual designer, but when I drag and drop one control, nothing happens and the selection goes to "Pointer".
