Error completely bombs out of Gambas

Post by SPC »

VB6 fugitive experimenting with Gambas.

I was disappointed to experience an opaque error message when playing with the GUI this morning. Something to the effect that I had text error 671 (I'll record the exact message next time!). After the error message there was no opportunity to recover. The whole Gambas program simple terminated.

Also, some specific questions: Is is possible to colour individual buttons, text boxes and so on? I can colour the form (background). Also, how can I permanently show the toolbox (ie properties) in the IDE?

BTW, I am using Raspberry Pi

The back ground and foreground colors can be selected for buttons.

They can also be set and changed in you code.

Label4.Foreground = Color.Red ' will set the text color
