Re: [WD25] moving a column in a table control - 4 days ago

Hi Stefan, there is my procedure "ResetColumnConfiguration" The global procedure ResetColumnConfiguration() adds a function which is not contained in the AAF-menue of a WINDEV standard Table control. The AAF for a Table control allow for moving, resizing, hiding of shown and showing of hidden columns of the Table control. It even stores the current configuration of the columns! Us

Re: [WD 28] TitleHeader - 13 days ago

Hi Al, thanks a lot for your suggestion with the two header rows!!!! That's a great hint! I'll do a test with it and I'll report the outcome. The project includes about 100 tables on a lot of windows and a single window that enables our customers to tweak each table to the user's needs and taste. Initially, it contained the means to tweak the row's font, fontsize, c

[WD 28] TitleHeader - 14 days ago

Hi, I suspect, I'm stuck on a bug. I'm trying to change properties of the Header of a Table column. The header has a single line. So, the Help System's suggested function to change the text size of a Table's column to 15pt would be: MyTableName.MyColumnName..TitleHeader[1]..FontSize = 15 This is giving an error, saying: 1 is an invalid index The values of the Tabl

Re: Need frank opinion about upgrading to latest version of WX - 6 weeks ago

Hi, I'm using WINDEV v28 since its introduction in 2022 and there have been only a few (3 to 4) unexplainable crashes. I suspect, crashes are caused by not having enough installed memory. Each time, I lost an small amount of code only. A v28 project needs about 700mb while a v26 project only needs about half of that. Crashes happened only when several projects of different WINDEV versions we

Re: Need frank opinion about upgrading to latest version of WX - 7 weeks ago

Hi YogiYang, most new versions do fix problems of the older ones. So, if you found some annoying issues in version 24, it may well be that those issues are gone in v28. Or not. You should do a test ... Most new versions, in your case 25, 26, 27, 28 do offer a bunch of new features. It may be, your programs could look more modern oder more elegant using those features. Think again.

Re: HFSQL scheduled backups v26 - FAILURE - 7 weeks ago

Hi Steve, thank you! I don't believe that they fixed it - because this has been a singular event. I suggest you send a short description to Tech Support anyway and mention that switching from winter time to summer time can't be simulated. In v27, I had a non-demonstratable issue as well, but someone at PC Soft looked at it and fixed it in v28.

Hi, whenever I'm clicking to show a certain procedure all of the procedures of the current Element are shown too. I remember that in previous versions only the clicked procedure was shown.

Re: leave FOR-loop prematurely (like break) - 4 months ago

Hi Peter, yes! Leaving a FOR-TO or a WHILE-END loop prematurely leaves the stack filled without a chance of garbage collection. Result is like a memory leak. Even in programs with the old Microsoft BASIC Compiler one could invite desaster by leaving a loop with a 'GOTO outside' command. I don't know how WLanguage reacts because I never tried to leave a loop by GOTO - I'm using

Re: Price Increase - 4 months ago

Hi, there always has been a price difference between upgrade prices during a certain period after announcement and later. Usually, the difference is even more than 10%. The upgrade period for the French products has ended already!
