Deep copy instead of shallow copy?

Hello, Let's say I have a class array called Pets. Let's say Pets is the end-result of a huge, CPU-intensive sort that I'd rather not have to perform again, when I can simply cherry-pick what I need from the already-sorted Pets array. So I create another class array of the same type, called Pets_Rep...

Re: The new Gambas AppImage - can it run on Android?

As I continue to read the Gambas AppImage threads on the mailing list, (if I understand them correctly, all the MVPs are over my head) Benoit had the brilliant idea of giving Gambas the option to export programs not into compiled executables, but to their own stand-alone AppImages. Fabien replied th...

Re: Listbox advice

Hello Andy, The problem you're having with the display of the text in your second image is: the text string that's been scanned into your ListBox contains an ASCII code for either a carriage return (gb.Cr) or a line feed (gb.Lf). Perhaps even both (gb.CrLf). This crams two lines of text into a verti...

The new Gambas AppImage - can it run on Android?

Hello all, I recently discovered from the Gambas mailing list that a working Gambas AppImage has finally been created. Fabien Bodard deserves a round of applause! I think its an incredible accomplishment, and its clearly the end-result of a great labor of love and dedication. From what I understand,...

Re: TextArea, managing buffer size, scrolling

Aah , i feel i have both taught something and learned something here , thank you. :) I was having a similar issue that i'd tracked down to the problem being the textarea was completely erasing and refilling again. Will look into the Insert() way instead. You're welcome and thank you :) BruceS Hey B...

Re: TextArea, managing buffer size, scrolling

Bruce and Cogier, thank you both for your replies. I tried Bruce's suggestion of including Wait 0.2. This didn't fix my scrolling problem. But it did unexpectedly make the TextArea flicker or flash, as status updates were added. On closer examination, I discovered that the flicker/flash was the Text...

TextArea, managing buffer size, scrolling

Hello everyone, I use a TextArea in one of my Gambas applications (QT). As my program operates, it periodically adds lines of status updates to the bottom of the TextArea. These updates contain various information such results of tests, sizes of files, the time operations have taken. etc. As the pro...

Re: Any issues upgrading to Gambas 3.15 stable in Mint 19.3?

Thanks for the upgrade info; I tried it again your way and I am happy so far, except for a warning similar to yours --Steve S (GambasGuiGeneric:56871): Gtk-WARNING **: 17:03:30.481: for_size smaller than min-size (16 < 17) while measuring gadget (node button , owner GtkScrollbar) (GambasGuiGeneric:...

Re: Any issues upgrading to Gambas 3.15 stable in Mint 19.3?

Taking into consideration the replies to this thread, I decided to test one of my old computers running Mint 19.3 and Gambas 3.14. Since I needed to do a complete removal of Gambas 3.14 anyway, to do a clean upgrade to 3.15, I decided I'd just go ahead and upgrade the computer to Mint 20 and after d...

Any issues upgrading to Gambas 3.15 stable in Mint 19.3?

I haven't upgraded to Mint 20 yet, after I heard it has issues with the new version of Gambas. I don't think I need Mint 20 that badly. But is the install of Gambas 3.15 stable painless and problem-free on Mint 19.3? If so, would then upgrading to Mint 20 bork an otherwise clean-running install of G...
