|
|
We're glad to announce the release of version 2.3!
New fetures:
- Support for AsPack and UPX packed executables.
- Preview panel for selected resource item.
- Visual DFM preview and testing. Only Delphi™ 6-7 and C++Builder™ 6 are supported.
- Handling #include files.
- Direct working with RES files. Now you can work with RES files the same way as with RC.
- Configurable style of generated RC files. C style and Pascal.
- Dialog Editor: moving and resizing controls by using arrow keys with CTRL and SHIFT pressed.
- Other minor improvements and several bug fixes.
New version is available to download from http://www.sicomponents.com/download.html

Please provide a quick fix for my current development is practically at a standstil because of this.

Could you please try to re-run Update Manager or download full install package from our site and install it? Because we're unable to reproduce the error mentioned using latest builds. It looks like rb_core.dll wasn't updated to latest version during update. Lates version numbers:
Resource Builder: 2.3.0.1
Compiler: 5.3.0.37
Linker: 1.0.0.26
Please let us know about the results. |

Runtime error 2 at 00403F6F
and it stops.

Really strange. Please download full package from our web site and run install. This will install latest version to your PC. Please let me know if this helps. |

Apparently, downloading the full trial version and reinstalling resource builder, it recognized my licence and resource builder works again. I'll now try and update my portable's version of resource builder and see if I experience the same problem. I'll let you know.
Thanks.

Posted: Sat Mar 19, 2005 10:37 am Post subject: Tabbed dialogs |
|
|
Creating tabbed dialogs are practically impossible. First you create a dialog with a tab-control on it, then you create child dialogs to be put into this control. The child dialogs should have the following form:
DLG_FICHEA DIALOGEX 6, 18, 471, 222
STYLE WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE
EXSTYLE WS_EX_NOPARENTNOTIFY | WS_EX_CONTROLPARENT
FONT 8, "MS Sans Serif"
BEGIN
...
END
OK, resource builder does it in a slightly different manner, but important is that the child window does not have the WS_CAPTION flag. Though the graphical edit modus shows that this flag is set to false, the text edit modus shows the WS_CAPTION flag and so my tabbed dialog looks bad.
Also - when I change from graphical to text edit mode I get an "Access violation in Resbldr2.exe: read of address FFFFFF". The second time I click the toolbar icon to go to text-edit mode, it works.
Hope you can fix this.

Thanks for details! When you set WS_CAPTION flag to "false" then you must delete the Caption property value too. Because otherwise Resource Builder "thinks" that in case there was used Caption value then it is needed to use WS_CAPTION flag too.
The problem with "Access violation..." will be fixed today. |

Perhaps I overlooked but it would be a nice feature to be able to select multiple objects and then give them the same size horizontally, vertically or both.

1. Select controls in Dialog Editor (multiple selection available using SHIFT key pressed + click or by mouse down and move to select rectangle)
2. Right click and in popup-menu select Position -> Size |

|
|
I tried resizing group boxes to make them the same size, the way you told me to but alas, it did not work. The properties, as well as the text version tell me that they are still different in size (vertical). Could this be because of the small difference (only one pixel) ??

Strange, can you send us sample RC and tell the size you want to setup? We've tried to reproduce this but group boxes always resize to same value. |

|

Yesterday and today I got the message that there was an upgrade available, but it did not download. Some moments ago I was able to upgrade from 2.3.0.1 to 2.3.0.5 and now the resizing works fine. Thanks anyway. But now in both versions I found another problem. When I try to edit my menu it works fine in plain text mode but changing to graphical mode I get the error:
'List index out of bounds (0)'
This is the menu resource....

Strange again but we're unable to reproduce this problem. Resource Builder able to edit menu from provided RC script just find Is this the only resource in your RC may be the error is reproduced under some special situation.
Also one small note: when creating menus using "\t" instead og space (" ") to separate shortcuts from menu text is better and will make your menu look like all standard menus. Just use Code: | MENUITEM "Aanmelden...\tCTRL+O", 100 | instead of Code: | MENUITEM "Aanmelden... CTRL+O", 100 |
