Hi everybody! It's been a while since my last post in this forum...

I have updated my Bulgarian language translation for Koda 1.7.0.5. Here it is: lang_bg.xml

[Lakes]

Just installed the new version and I get a warning message saying that styles.xml is missing.

Is there a link to the Koda archive?, I could`nt see one on the web page.

Thanks.

Edit: Doh! never mind it had put it on the Desktop....

Welcome back, lokster, and thanks, I'm updated translation.

Here is updated Czech language file for Koda 1.7.0.5

During translation I noticed some minor translation related problems - In XML is missing:

tabCustom, btnTStatusBar, btnTIPInput

See this:

<form name="DesignerMain">

<caption>oda FormDesigner</caption>

<tabStandard property="Caption">Standard</tabStandard>

<tabCustom property="Caption">Custom</tabCustom>

<btnTStatusBar property="Hint">Status Bar</btnTStatusBar>

<btnTIPInput property="Hint">IP Address InputBox</btnTIPInput>

I think it would be good to add in Options dialog/Colors section new button "Default colors" --> for reseting to implicit colors

BTW: New StatusBar control is GREAT. The only one functionality I'm missing in Koda now is ToolBar control.

Thanks, updated and fixed.

Looks like good idea.

This is fairly comlicated thing to done, especially handling imagelists. I'm still have not enough time yet, only for small changes

That's pity but no big problem.

You have done lot of good work on Koda

OMG - I can't believe I never found this until today!

Absolutely stunning tool for AutoIT - thanks so much. This saves me SO much time!

hi guys, can you tell me if there is going to be another beta soon?

As answer for that quesions I like famous 3DRealms sentence "When it's done"

Seriously, I still have little time now, but work go on slowly. And I'll on vacation from next week, so maybe will spent a bit more time.

with the new autoit out and stuff, i thought... lets ask

What the new Autoit stuff are not implemented in Koda yet? I recall only new includes structure and accelerators, but they are done already.

[damian666]

oooh, but i didnt say that man

was just a question, i thought that maybe you had a suprise for us, thats all.

what better time to release something then with the release of a new autoit

thank you for your hard work man.

Idea for new functionality:

In ListView Column editor add new Property: Justify according to _GUICtrlListView_JustifyColumn()

_GUICtrlListView_JustifyColumn($hWnd, $iIndex[, $iAlign = -1])

$iAlign

Alignment of the column header and the subitem text in the column:

0 - Text is left aligned

1 - Text is right aligned

2 - Text is centered

So code generator would add for example something like this:

(set right justify for second column)

_GUICtrlListView_JustifyColumn($ListView1, 1, 1)

It will be similar to existing Column Width property.

Koda 1.7.0.5

There is problem with ListView: When I turn ON LVS_EX_FULLROWSELECT ex. style it starts to behave wrong.

It has bad repainting (semi transparent) especially when I move ListView control.

Here are screenshots:

I have question:

Beta 1.7.0.5 (2008-02-20)

2008-03-20 - Added: AcceleratorTables support (thanks Jon

How can I use it? I can't find any menu/option for that in Koda 1.7.0.5

EDIT: Nevermind! I found it. It's in menu designer under Hotkey property

EDIT2: I think there is problem with Accelerators generated code (but I'm not sure about that):

I think

GUISetAccelerators($AccelKeys)

must be placed BEFORE

GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

and not AFTER as Koda does.

@ Zedna

Placing GuiSetAccelerators after GuiSetState seems to work fine for me.

@ Lazycat

Minor problem with labels.

I use labels sometimes as coloured panels or as lines. In these cases there is no text in the label. Koda will keep resetting their sizes to 4 x 4.

Is there a way I can make them stay the way I design them?

There is AutoSize property in Object Inspector. It has default value True. Just set its value to False.

Thanks Zedna for pointing out the obvious to me. I just seem to be blind to these things sometimes.

Ok, I'll look it.

Yes, I know. Sadly, in delphi painting of listview control when assigning certain styles directly to underlaying MS common control and and recreating it (as Koda currently does) not always correct. So far this is looks tricky to workaround this problem.

EDIT2: I think there is problem with Accelerators generated code (but I'm not sure about that):

GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

I'm not seen problems with placing this before or after... Not sure where better place to set it.

I'm wondering if it's possible to change Koda's fonts, specially that used for displaying Object TreeView and Object List contents. I guess they use Windows current font, which is fine for many, but I like monospaced fonts when it comes to coding, mostly because they are less ambiguous. Changing it through Windows won't be an option.

If selecting Koda's font is not possible (as I suppose) would it be difficult to add this option to it? If not, please include this request to its wishlist. Thanks in advance.
