Re: Gambas project class files always "read only"

Try creating a new class, copy and paste all the code from the old class to the new class then delete the old class. If this does not work please post the program, and we can have a look.

Re: Get build data

OK there is a few things here. 1/. When posting code use the 'gb' button, it's much nicer :D 2/. &/ is a powerful command that sorts out if you need, or don't need, a slash in the path. The following will work sPath = "/usr/" &/ "/bin/" &/ "/amidi" 3/. Dim s...

Re: Get build data

Re: Making custom controls

How to get the control to display properly in the IDE without a proper install into gambas Or even if it's possible. You were so nearly there, it's just the name of the icon that's wrong. You need the class name. In .hidden/control you need tickboxim.png , and then it works. https://www.cogier.com/...

Re: Start up program with variables in line
