Re: EasyPTR MINOB corrupting application window attributes?

Thanks for the response Per.

Yes, that avoids the problem, but I still find it strange that MINOB should impact application window attributes.

Never mind, rather than spending time on something I can avoid, I'll get back to my project...

EasyPTR MINOB corrupting application window attributes?

Hi, While tinkering with a little program, I've noticed strange behaviour with the colour attributes of application windows following the setting of text in an information object. I'm not exactly sure what is going on, but I'm pretty certain that setting an information object using MINOB should not ...

Try this, call with channel and application window number and xsize% and ysize% are returned. Hope that give you what you want. DEFine PROCedure GET_APPW_SIZE(channel,appw_no,xsize%,ysize%) LOCal working_def,ww_nappl,ww_pappl,apw : working_def=MWDEF(#channel) : ww_nappl=PEEK_W(working_def+HEX("...

A bit late with my response, but it would be very good if QTYP could be made available.

Re: New QLiberator v3.37

This is really good work. I've loaded it and given it a quick try and noticed (no criticism implied!): a) Loading takes several seconds (about 5), the previous version was pretty much instant. Is that expected? b) You can move beyond original screen, but the saved position is still within the origin...

Re: Thing Removal

It is in one (or both) of QLE or Black Phoenix. I'm not sure whether it is public domain, but it is there. Unfortunately, I can't check which it is in at the moment.

Re: QLiberator decompiler

After the sources were released I has a very quick look at the "moving beyond original screen" issue. The code appears to have some checks in it, but these on their own are not enough to fix it (as has already been mentioned). I suspect the limit may be checked in QLIB's pointer routines a...

Re: EasyPTR APPMAN help

Well, true to form this was my mistake. $$asmb=name,0,60 does work. As the QLiberator manual clearly states, the extension (in this case APPA0) must be loaded when compiled. However, I had QSAVE'd before loading it and compiling it. I always save code using QSAVE so never use the LIBERATE name, stru...

Thanks, but it works fine if I add the menu to an extension file as per your example.

However, as I always have the extensions loaded, that's adding a large chunk of "duplicate" code so I am trying to create an _app file, with just the menus in.
