How about this....

QuotePS where U can find Infos about Control wrapper functions for Afx?

Check out all of the *.inc files in the \inc\Afx folder. Specifically, for ListView, look at AfxCtl.inc.

I have Made Yesterday this example too you can load and save a File  did AS Basis an example from this Board some years ago (only save Dialog worked at that time)

PS where U can find Infos about Control wrapper functions for Afx?

Many thanks Paul !

QuoteI fixed your code. Hopefully it is easy to understand.

I See all Changes and understand new Afx Features... I am Glad its working

Thats my First gui SDK example with AFx beside openGl and I Like the WinFBE Editor too ITS a great Job and hard Work I can Imagine...

Nice Weekend Bye
, frank

Hi Frank,

I fixed your code. Hopefully it is easy to understand.

QuoteBtw: its possible to Change the font Size of the WinFBE Editor?

"File", "Preferences", "Environment Setup"  (or simply press F7)
Select "Themes and Fonts"

You can change the font, font size, and the spacing between the lines.

Btw: its possible to Change the font Size of the WinFBE Editor?

Quote from: José Roca on March 14, 2024, 02:40:12 PMIt should be WSTRING * instead of STRING *

Thank-you.  Ok, I conclude that our string*n endeavour will not adversely affect WinFBE (WinFBX).

Quote from: philbar on March 14, 2024, 03:23:16 AMIncidentally, I've been following the discussion of this on the FB forum.

ah nice!, excellent to hear.  Our goal is to keep the development discussions out in the open as much as possible and let everyone know what is going on even if at times it is full of a bunch of technical details.

> It sounded so easy at first...

I find that there are many concerns that in isolation would be easy (simple) and then when investigating how they interact with other concerns become hard (complicated).  I think 'easy' or 'hard' is convenient for generalizing and summing up but really doesn't capture the nuances of the challenge.

Great stuff everyone.

That Dll also looks great.
Just so I dont destroy stuff, in WINFBX how do  I do that -l libcli.dll??
I know there is a way with the Dll's but I am not so skilled on them.

-Thanks a million.

Here's one more with keycode to ascii Convert and to unicodechar
Same example AS above


CASE WM_KEYDOWN
        ' // Process keystrokes
          ' shows all keyboard codes :-)
            wkeystate = wParam AND &HFF ' Extract the key code
           
          print "1) Last key pressed: 0x"; HEX(wkeystate)

            'convert the keycode to ASCII
            dim keyAscii as integer = Asc(chr(wkeystate))
            'convert ascii to hex value
            dim keyhex as string = Hex$(keyAscii)
            'print hex value
           
            print "2) last character hex value: 0x";keyHex
     
    case WM_CHAR
        dim uniCodeChar as integer
        unicodechar = wParam
        dim keyhex as string = hex$(unicodechar)
       
          print "3) Unicode: Last character hex value: 0x";keyhex
