Hi

The SIL Editor downloaded a new update today, to v5.0.0.8. Is there somewhere we can see a list of what has changed in each version please?

Many thanks,
Jason.

Hi,

- Fixed bug with exporting SIB to XML
- Fixed conflict in "Auto-reopen last edited" and file in command-line
- Fixed missing images in Verify SIL file form
- Internal changes

Thanks Igor. Perhaps a change log through all versions would be useful so we can see what has been fixed so that we don't raise old issues with you.

While I'm here, is there any chance of a future enchancement to using the COM features of the SIL Editor? Could it be made to run invisibly (or minimized at least) so that users don't see the editor flashing up and giving them the potential to click on it and cause some problems?

Thanks
Jason.

We will try to add this.

Igor,

Our users are constantly complaining about seeing the SIL Editor flashing up when we use COM to apply the translations. Do you have any news on when this minimized/hidden option could be included?

Also, would there be the option to prevent the SILEditor from "Checking for updates" when it runs for the first time each day? Or could I update the setting manually? When I untick "Automatically notify about updates" in the SIL Editor, where is this setting saved? The users think this is our software offering to download the latest update, not the SIL Editor.

I appreciate your time and help.

Jason.

I think I've found the answer to the second part, correct me if I'm wrong.

In the registry, under:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SiComponents\TsiLang Editor\Options.siOptions1_Options

Item20_BoolValue is True if UpdaterAuto is on, False if UpdaterAuto is off.

Can it be guaranteed that this option will always be in this location and always be Item20, or is there a better way?

Thanks,
J.

1 - it is not yet ready.

2 - yes, you're right. The location is correct and it is fixed.

Same request as the original post - the SIL Editor downloaded a new update today, to v5.0.0.9. What has changed please? Have you thought any more about a change log for each update?

Thanks,
J.

Hi Igor

Can you please let us know what has changed between SILEditor v5.0.0.8 and 5.0.0.10?

EDIT: Sorry, just spotted change_log.txt - thank you!

Thanks,

OLE Server Visible property

Hi Igor

I have just downloaded the update of the SIL Editor, v5.0.0.12. The change_log.txt includes:
Version: 5.0.0.11
+ Added Visible property to OLE Server
Could you please let me know how this is used? Has the Visible parameter been added to the EditFile function? If so, would it be called like this:

Current:

Code: Select all

FIntf.EditFile(sEditFileName, 'Captions', False);
New:

Code: Select all

FIntf.EditFile(sEditFileName, 'Captions', False, False);
Many thanks for this feature,
Jason.

Hi,

Just:

Code: Select all

FIntf.Visible := True [False];
to Show [Hide] the editor.
