Re: I have detected a minor bug in the Gambas IDE version 3.15.2

Coding your gui by hand and using the ide are different. You can't expect gambas to handle every mistake you make. Gambas "Form designer" designs the form and checks your naming against other names in the form designer. (Not your class) If you think it's a bug you should get on the gambas ...

Re: Problems with Message and the window that creates it

No that's your coding.
Nothing should hide form automatically.

If form hides it's your code.

Post an example program.

Re: Problems with Message and the window that creates it

I assume you are using the message command in the form.open event? That won't work as the form.must open first. Best way is to create a timer and start it in the form open event. Have the timer event use the message command and form.open can continue to work Private hTimer as Timer Public sub Form_O...

Re: Adding keyboard shortcuts to menu items

It's a bug in the gtk toolkit.
You must change your system font size.
If you up your font size a bit the key selector next to the modifier key options will appear. Try upping 1 PT so if 10 try 11

Or run gambas with the qt toolkit not gtk.
env GB_GUI=gb.qt5 gambas3

Re: I have detected a minor bug in the Gambas IDE version 3.15.2

When you change a name of an object in the ide it auto changes instances of the object name in your code, this is a feature not a bug.

Plus 3.15 is old so no bugs will get fixed. Bugs only get fixed in the latest version.

Re: Creating a library

Aah hang on. i think i understand. It's probably an issue with a QT only system.
you probably need to use gb.gui.qt not gb.gui or something.

The other bruce will know about these problems better as he also uses a QT only system.
