Nomads / Re: change caption using titlebars
« on: November 02, 2018, 06:54:49 AM »
I'm sorry to bother you again with this.
As the captions of some of my titlebars are still not changed, I took a deeper look. It turns out, that the px_titlebar_caption control is not changed during the post display logic. It is only changed during event logics. In case of a *nomads class the caption is never changed. Neither in postLoad(), nor in an event logic.
Can you reproduce this with PxPlus V14?

Thank you Jane. Now it works.
I didn't notice to name the control "px_titlebar_caption". I only aasigned that variable as an expression.

Yes, that still changes the window title, but it is not visible any more using titlebars.
I just did a quick test with PxPlus V14:
Button 1 does: print 'caption'(dte(0:"%Hz%mz%sz")),
Button 2 does: multi_line read 0,_$;msgbox _$, px_titlebar_caption$

While the window title is technically changed, the associated variable px_titlebar_caption$ remains the unchanged. That requires own logic for the visibility of the title change.
Is this the intended behavior?

Nomads / change caption using titlebars
« on: October 29, 2018, 05:57:56 AM »
I encounter issues when changing the window caption while using titlebars.
As a fonted text with =px_titlebar_caption$ cannot be changed afterwards, I tried many different attribute settings with a multiline control. So far I could not find a satisfying solution. A multiline control always becomes visible if the user clicks and drags into it. The window cannot be moved, if the user clicks on the multiline control.
What is the best practice to change the window caption using titlebars?

Nomads / Re: dropbox style
« on: October 25, 2018, 10:37:43 AM »
I understand what you mean. But currently PxPlus unnecessarily introduces yet another look for a dropbox. That dropbox uses the same hover colors as the system dropbox (file open dialog, system apps). That's why we would like to see the entire system look.

This happens, if you hit the query key but there is no query logic defined. You can avoid this by setting %nomads_no_qry_msg=1 or %nomads'no_qry_msg=1

Nomads / dropbox style
« on: October 18, 2018, 09:15:00 AM »
After moving to Win10 I see the look of dropboxes differ between PxPlus V14 and Win10. Is there a way to make the PxPlus dropboxes look like Win10 dropboxes?

Programming / Re: slow msgbox

prm('MX') returns zero in our environment, so msgbox triggers the system component.
I started explorer and tried to delete a file. The confirmation dialog takes round about 1 second to appear here too.
Looks to be system issue.
Thank you all. Thread closed  :)

I tried WindX and a local installation. Both behave in the same manner.

I'm on Win10 Pro 64 bit with PxPlus V14.
The delay is significant on all clients.

Programming / slow msgbox
« on: October 10, 2018, 09:02:34 AM »
After moving several client machines to Win10 we see slow message boxes on all these clients. It turns out that all types of msgbox are drawn instantly as long as no title text is used. The delay is round about 1 second.

instant draw
msgbox "A"
msgbox "A","","?,YESNO",a$

slow draw
msgbox "A","A"
msgbox "A","A","?,YESNO",a$

By the way, LET a,b,c=0 would be nice as well.

Programming / Re: provide many PNGs to WindX
« on: October 08, 2018, 06:57:33 AM »
The last time I tried the dynamic download, it didn't work for us, because we use the PNGs for buttons and the dynamic download only works for the 'PICTURE' mnemonic.
Hiding the numerous PNGs shall also be achieved. I've built a DLL consisting of those PNGs with *plus/dll/maint, but couldn't make it work. As it is possible to use the old icons with setdev (0) set "RESOURCELIB" to "oldimages.dll", there should be a way, but I cannot figure it out.

Programming / provide many PNGs to WindX
« on: October 05, 2018, 10:24:22 AM »
We're going to redesign the front ends of our applications, which will require many PNGs. In order to reduce network traffic I'm looking for a way to put these files into a container file (DLL, ZIP or whatsoever), copy it to the client and use them from within that container.
I tried *plus/dll/maint without avail. As this tool cannot open oldimages.dll, I have doubts whether that will work.

What options are available with SCS and PxPlus V14?

Programming / error 17 with empty json objects
« on: August 31, 2018, 04:34:39 AM »
A customer received an empty json object from a web service.
It is easy to reproduce the error:
Code: [Select]
json$="{'address':{}}"; rem RFC compliant
json$=sub(json$,"'",quo)
dim load arr$[all]=json$
Error #17: Invalid file type or contents
