picture control and foreground colour

Post by l3whmg »

Hi at everybody,
1) I’ve a problem with “Image” control: the image on video don't change. To better (I hope :oops: ) explain I've included a simple example. When I click on the button “bt_foto” the function work fine but don’t change the image on video; if I close the function p010_main() and return to the main (very main) program and then recall the same function p010_main() and the same/saved record, no image is loaded. But, MOST IMPORTANT, If I quit the main (very main) program, then reopen it, execute function p010_main() and recall the prior saved record with the new (changed) image, this is loaded on video! It’s my problem :?:

2) I've a form with Tab control (see image): there is no great difference between the background color of the tab (red circle) and the background color of the field (green circle); on the other hand the standard background color (blu circle) of the form it's more gray. a) I don't find method to change (it's possible?) the tab background color :idea: . b) It's my problem :?:

Many thanks to everyone and excuse me for bad English

I’m run on WinXp MSSystem with Harbour MiniGUI 2.6.7

Bye

Ciao Luigi

Could you explain the problem more specific please ?

Preferably with a working sample, concentrated to problem and isolated all about non related the problem.

PS : Please don't break your laptop before answered your question :D

Ciao Esgici,
I’m sorry for the later, but I want try exactly and… I ( :?: ) found the problem! :)
Look at source Sub, line 64 (*LOCAL cFile := getfile...).
Now it’s commented and program work fine ;) but if I activate it don’t work :o ; the image don’t change on video.

Ok for the laptop :lol:

Bye

Hi Luigi

IMHO you have change Line 66 in sub.prg

p010win.iFoto.picture := NewFilename
to

p010win.iFoto.picture := cFile

Or change line 64 :

LOCAL cFile := getfile(aFilters, ...

to

LOCAL NewFilename := getfile(aFilters, ...

You already have ".\fotosoci" folder (under your working DIR) with pictures, isn't ?

Another point may be: If you are working with HMG-IDE, whenever modified sub.prg you have re-save main.prg too or use Project\Reset Project Incremental Data command before compiling project. Or better exclude #include sub.prg line from main.prg and add sub.prg as a separate module to project by using Project\Add Module command.

I hope that this help you.

Regards

Hi Esgici,
thanks a lot for your quickly answer, but...
Yes I now that my pictures must be in the subfolder and yes I know that I need to do changes how you describe, but the problem is the "getfile" function! If I use it (to select or not the picture file it's not important now) only the activation create the problem! I have used this method (getfile to select file from folder) before Hmg 2.6.7 version and work fine; now, with this version, I have the problem: I don't understand :shock: . I have looked that there is a new Hmg version: I try it :o .

For the second answer I don't use HMG-IDE. Why? I don't know: perhaps I don't understand very well the power of this.

Among a few times I would want to share two very simple "library" that I write and use: one is to access at MySql and another one is to print (M$Window): can I do this here for everyone (and perhaps get some suggestions) ?

How is the weather in Alexandretta? Here, I'm living near Aosta Valley in the north of Italy, it's raining :( .

Best regards

Hi Luigi,

It is the RIGHT time to share those libraries, since this is the hot topic of our Forum now! I am eager to see.
East or West HMG is the Best.
South or North HMG is worth.
...the possibilities are endless.

Me too :(

After building ".\fotosoci" folder, copying some pictures into it ( and correcting file's variable name ) your program work fine in my machine :?

If you want I can send you working version of your program ( my email address is esgici @ gmail.com ).

Regarding IDE, I strongly suggest using it. Let complex batch files and environment settings left in DOS :!: There isn't any difficulty. Simply follow a few primitive samples. If you like you will begin here.

As Rathinagiri said, this is just right time.

Thanks. Since three days is very well: sunny, 27°C and rh is 42. Second half of March was fully rainy.

Best Regards

Hi at everybody,
thanks a lot for the informations Esgici!
First of all, that's incredible, I've rewrite the source (same code), recompile it and... work fine :o. I don't understand what's the problem. One time, I've tried to use the "getfile" function in this way "cFile = getfile(aFilter, "prompt", cPath, .F., .T.)" and work fine then I rewrite in the original form with "cFile = getfile(aFilter, "prompt", cPath, .F., .F.)" and work fine also. For me it's a mystery :twisted:

For the libraries, I take some little time because I want prepare little examples how to use them: my logic (or my mind :?: ) can be very different from other :lol: I'm very enjoy to do this for everyone. Rathinagiri, Esgici: many thanks for the invitations.

See you soon
