Hmm...very interesting. Du you have a skin enabled? Please can you try to disable the skining in the ISN? Maybe it helps...

[willichan]

I tried all of the skins, and disabled.  It is the same.

I just see that your projecttree (on the left side) is also empty

Looks like theres a problem with the TVExplorer.au3.

I see what i can do.

Ps: can you post a debug log? (Settings > general > advanced > debug)?

I figured out the problems.

1 - ISN assumes that my project folder is under my Documents folder in my windows user profile.

I don't keep ANY programming there, but rather keep them on a network share. I think that this is also why the project tree does not populate properly.

2 - ISN assumes that any images I want to use are in the project folder, and only shows subfolders of the project folder for navigation.

I keep all of my icon files in one collection folder, and reference them there.  I don't make duplicates in my project folders.

You might consider using the built-in FileOpenDialog() function, or add navigation outside the project folder.

Also of note, I use my own project folder creation tool to create my projects from my templates and profiles.  I have added a project.isn file to my templates to make use of your utility in my projects.

--- edit ---

I just realized that my utility adds the system bit to the folder created, so that it can have a custom icon.  Normal users are still able to see the folder.  ISN leaves these out of the project tree.

I am making some changes to my project folder utility to make better use of ISN.  I plan on including a project.isn in all of my AutoIt project templates.

I do have a couple of feature requests, if you have the time and inclination.

1 - Include folders with the System attribute in the project tree and project manager.

2 - Include the folder that the main au3 file is in with the project tree, even if it is a hidden folder.

3 - A menu or toolbar option to import compiler directives from the main au3 file, and set project properties and project compile options to match.

Thanks again for a great utility.

4 - I have a script based on ptrex's method, to add digital signatures to a compiled exe if you are interested in adding that as an option to the compiler function.

Is it possible to install this on a usb stick and run it from there?

[ISI360]

yes..just download the compiled package from my homepage and choose "portable mode" at initial configuration. -> Done

NOTE: Currently Autoit must be installed on the machine to use all functions.

Question:

If i want a lable with text + a variable how would i do this with this program? can't figure it out i tried a few things:

Extra code

Text/Data

but that doesn't work can someone help me with how i can do this please?

[ISI360]

If you want text only: Select "Text mode" in the controleditor and enter the text in "text/data"

If you want a variable or a func only: Select "Func mode" in the controleditor and enter the function or variable in "text/data"

If you want both you can also do it with func mode: Select "Func mode" in the controleditor and enter the following in "text/data":

"text: "&$my_var
 

Note: If you test your GUI the Text is yet "$my_var" as raw text (for testing).

But when you start your final script, $my_var will be replaced to the variable value and it will work!

Hope this helps you!

Meh xD

when i use text/data with text from func.

i write "text: " & $Var

output on test gui = 'Text: '

doesn't show the data and shows '' even tho i used ""?

[ISI360]

Whatch the source code of the GUI (Generate AutoIt Code). There you can check if the text and the variable is insertet correctly.

And as i said above when you test the GUI in the formstudio the $var is empty or not aviable. (Displayed in raw text)

[satanttin]

Hello,

I tried this and it puts it correctly except it uses '' instead of "" which is why it doesn't work atleast i think.

[ISI360]

No it has nothing to do with the quotes.

Here is an example project for you:

satanttin.zip

Here is an example project for you:

Mhmm When i do this it says "Text: 4" i tested your script and that worked just can't figure out why it isn't with me xD

ahwell thanks for the help:) gonna test more i guess xD

[ISI360]

Maybe the Variable $var is already declared anywhere in your Script (with the value 4) ^^

No problemo ;)

[satanttin]

I wish that was the case but afraid not hehe:P

anyways now i know it's possible i just look for it maybe i messed something up xD

[legend]

it's using the old syntax, which I don't like.

Is it possible to change it to the new one?

[ISI360]

If you mean the syntax-colours:

Yes this is possible! (The old style is only the default value)

See program settings -> Script Editor -> Colours
