If a commercial company creates a support forum,
it has nothing to do with democracy. It’s support,
help and discussions for/about the product.If a company bans users who are against the products,
it is not a big problem. The company has to take care
of the interests of the company.Users clearly acting against the company, and trying to
harm the company and it’s products need to leave.It’s that easy.

GUI that looks nearly like native stuff. Like QT, but native MX2.I’m really interested in those stuff, and I think if we have some functions
for getting real screen resolution, real screen DPI, and some system informations,
like system platform (iOS, Android, HTML, Windows, macOS, Linux), it would be
possible to write really platform-independent games and applications with a nice look.I have 9 days time now, starting tomorrow, and I have to study the widgets code (mojox) now.
Would be easier if every class and struct would be documented properly, but unfortunately
that’s not the case. Anyway, I already see good-looking stuff in my virtual eye…January 20, 2017 at 8:21 am in reply to: Maybe we should give up on the BlitzMax crowd and close the forum. #6657That’s correct. Simon Armstrong said he wants to shut down the BlitzBasic forums
for a while, and then make it subscription-based.Take the free stuff people are used to, and you get a war with hateful speeches.
Althought I understand what you are saying, Richard… and I generally agree –
but taking down the Blitz3D/Max forums and changing it to a subscription model
will only increase hate within the community.
Yes, there are persons working against latest BRL stuff, and it would be nice
if this persons would leave… but forcing the leave will create big resistance
and a virtual war.Like I said before: Many people really hate Microsoft for stopping at VB6
and moving on to .NET – but does all those hate help anyone? I don’t think so!Please remember, we are all human beings! Human beings with a lighted candle
within our hearts! Everybody can feel it, if one looks inside him/herself.We should not destroy each other, instead we should help each other!
The only way to live a good life is to help each other and support
mother Nature as good as we can. Respect the green leaves and fruits,
the brown trees, and the water!Human beings should concentrate on working together to archive great things!
“Making money” is a false goal for your life. Just GIVE whatever you can GIVE,
is much better… and makes you really happy and satisfied!Imagine a world without war between people, where everyone can live happily
to full extend and with peace and freedom…!Go into the forest and embrace (give a hug to) a tree. Pure love within your heart…
that’s what human beings need to re-discover!January 19, 2017 at 7:21 pm in reply to: Maybe we should give up on the BlitzMax crowd and close the forum. #6647Remember when Microsoft abandoned VisualBasic 6 and moved on to the .NET platform?
Some guys still hate MS for doing this, even 15 years later.Latest official is version 1.1.20
Where can we download those controls?
Wasn’t it you who also did modify Ted (called ‘Ted21’)?
Is the source for the changes on github?I can’t find the post anymore, but I think it was you who wrote
a post about all your changes and recommendations, but Mark Sibly
refused all your changes to Ted and the MX2 GUI system!?I’m interested in that kind of stuff…
Thanks nerobot, I thought it’s for controlling a console/terminal/cmd-line when writing
console applications.
What’s the name for the console in MX2 when you write a console application?The description for many classes says only “The *** class” – for example:
– The ProgressDialog class.
– The TreeView class.
– The HtmlView class.
– The CheckGroup class.
– The TableView class.Would be nice to have at least a minimal description for what a class or another type
is used for.
For the GUI elements, it would be nice to better see and separate what is a layout element
and what is actually a widget/gadget. Maybe add “(layout)” or something like that in the
short description, so we can see that in the overview.Additional to small examples, I would also add some images to it. A small image of a
button, listbox, scrollbar – maybe with different styles applied.
Adding some visual graphics and screenshots, logos for libs, etc. may make it
a better experience (for the eye), in my opinion.Thanks Xaron, I already installed from github last night. It’s the same version 1.1.02 (master branch)
Don’t worry nerobot. Spending 10 hours trying to get help from within the IDE/Editor is enough.
Fresh install, and now I have a 788 MB monster directory sitting on my HD, trying to get the most basic things working…I need a break. And some beers.
“DrawText” with the HelloWorld example.
Same problem, wrong path.
Just got the latest Patreon e-mail, and it was written that
the next binary build will come within a few days.It opens the doc TAB, and displays “/Users/danilo/Monkey/monkey2/modules/docs/__PAGES__/-DrawText.html”
This path does not exist. The documentation is in “monkey2/docs/docs.html”,
and it is 1 file, not separate pages for everything.I don’t have a “monkey2/modules/docs/” directory.
I have:
“monkey2/modules/chipmunk/docs/__PAGES__/…”
“monkey2/modules/mojo/docs/__PAGES__/…”
“monkey2/modules/monkey/docs/__PAGES__/…”and
“monkey2/docs/docs.html”
Yes, I can see the quick help in status bar now. Pressing F1 again does not always
open the docs here. Thanks anyway! -
