And I'm waiting for yor replys


VERY AWESOME - tlsuess - 05-14-2005

Very awesome GUI! I've seen some GUIs for SVGA, but this one has to be one of the better ones.

I'll see if I can make a review at QBasicGUI.us.tt for CycloNe.

Regards,
Todd Suess

That is not all
Now I am writing a new one.
It will be built on Future Library.
And it will work with types as contanirs for controlls.
Looks like visual basic !
....
Dim Shared MyForm as FORM
....
Myform.Visible=True
Myform.TColor=CBlack
Myform.BColor=CGray
....
Here you can download that Demo

Hi,

I must say that your gui looks really impressice as it is -however unfortunaly I was able to run it onlt @ 320x200


Irrelevant Question - tlsuess - 05-14-2005

Hey VonGodric or anyone reading this,

I know this is irrelevant to the topic, but I am trying to take screenshots of SVGA programs, but I can't sadly. I tried ScreenThief, but my graphics don't turn out the way they're supposed to.

How did you (VonGodric) take screenshots of WizGui?

Thanks,
Todd

tlsuess
most of libraryes have its own instruments for taking screen shots.
they save screen ot part of it to BMP usually.

VanGodrik
Some people can't run it in resolutions higher than 320x200 (testing shows)
That is why i am writing it for Future Lib.


New GUI for QBasic!!! - Z!re - 05-14-2005

Zero_Divide, even if you write it in FL, you wont be abe to go above 320x240x8bit on most modern cards.

VESA is almost dead. Sad and true.


New GUI for QBasic!!! - TheBigBasicQ - 05-14-2005

Zero_Divide, nice gui. IMHO Future.Lib is compatible with most cards even those which have poor implementations of VESA. I would recommend using FB with Vongodric's Future.Lib wrapper if you're keen on using Future.Lib.


New GUI for QBasic!!! - Zero_Divide - 05-15-2005

Well............
I guess/hope that rewriting it for FB will be easySmile
Unfortunately FB doesn't have a debugger.
What a pain, I spend lots of time in itSmile

If I might dare give a plug to another BASIC, BBC BASIC for Windows gives instructions in the Help file under Contents/Accessing the Windows API as to how to create a Screen Saver with any program created with this software. This software has a wide variety of functions not found on other Basics. You can get the Shareware version from the first link below and try out over 250 old and new programs from my site the second link below:-
