bbc files - open immediately (should I ask about saving changed content or don't bother user at all?)

I'd think, when in doubt ask. You could make it an option, I suppose.

Perhaps, as you say, undo would be better left until later, in case additions cause unsuspected problems.

I'm probably going to use this application less than others who are more knowledgeable, so I hope we see some other, better-informed points of view expressed.

I will make it optional (ignore, ask, auto-save).

I always have separate sources copy just for testing so I can roll back any changes any time. I will play with it more and see what will happen.

Maybe "less than others" but you're giving most of the ideas

1.0.8 is out

I've fixed freezing for empty table tags.

Here's a little cosmetic thing.
Like me, its memory isn't perfect. BBCe doesn't remember GUI size.

If I close it sized as in the upper portion, it reopens sized as in the lower. (I have icons set to 22 under 'Appearance'.)

BBCeditor 1.1.35

I'll add it for next release.

fenixproductions · « **Reply #30 on:** April 08, 2009, 05:20 PM »

1.0.9 is out!

Application's memory should be better now (window size can be remembered).

I have also implemented drag'n'drop support.

1.0.10 is out!

I've fixed few problems with opened tags and corrected parsing of url= tag.

Thanks for your efforts!

This version wants always to open lower doen the screen than where it was closed.
Have you changed the positioning params at all? Reversed top/bottom pos?

Crap... I forgot to do one thing. Wait for an update

1.0.11 is out with few fixes:

- window position was not saved at all (only size);
- normal window state not saved if it was maximized previously.

-fenixproductions (April 12, 2009, 03:09 PM)

With 1.0.11 I still get a different position on open than was true on close.
The images show the same screen (they're shown side by side only for convenience).

I think I've got it. Can you download and check again?

If it's still not working, please, post your INI settings from General section.

Copy&paste fault

I had unnecessary part of code for checking PosX > 0 taken from SizeWidth.

BTW Can anyone enlighten me how position is presented in dual-monitors setup?

If I had two monitors - 1024x768 each, would it enable "virtual" resolution 2048x768 or what? How would it work for maximizing an application on one of the screens?

cranioscopical · « **Reply #39 on:** April 12, 2009, 08:54 PM »

Others are far better equipped to answer than I but my two 1600x1200 give me 3200x1200.
By default, maximizing a window maximizes it to the screen it's on.
Utilities, such as UltraMon, allow maximizing to the entire (two-screen) desktop.

Wow this has been active! I missed that you responded so I am so sorry for the very long delay. I redownloaded the current version to see if there is a difference but there isn't. I don't get anything at all. No error, no application. It is like it never starts running. I am guessing that options 2 & 3 would be ruled out by that. As for option 1, I won't say it is fully installed correctly (though I believe it is), but I do have .Net 1.1, 2.0 (w/ SP1), and 3.0 (w/ SP1) installed. I will try reinstalling .Net 2.0, but I am not holding much hope in that being the problem.

EDIT: Nope, verified that it didn't change a thing. I don't get it.

This is very strange. What operating system do you have?

Please try attached test applications:
- test1.exe - should load simple Form,
- test2.exe - simple Form with WebBrowser control (which points to Google).

steeladept · « **Reply #42 on:** April 14, 2009, 09:03 PM »

The plot thickens....

~~Attached is the screenshot of the results of your test files.~~ ***EDIT - I didn't bother attaching them since they worked and I figured out where the problem lies*** I would show you the results from starting BBCedit, but I don't have any. I started it with taskmanager open and it starts and stops after about 3 seconds. Nothing else even indicates that the system recognized the attempt.

Ha, I just figured it out. The one difference between your test files and the actual code is where I executed it from. I have a network drive labeled Z: that I have been trying to run it from. Just on a whim after your test files ran, I copied the folder to the local drive and ran it from there. That works fine

Perhaps you know why that is? Any recommendations since I can't keep it on the local drive (it is a shared computer and reverts back to original settings when I logoff)?

Thank you for nailing it.

As I can see (thx Google) this problem is related to Network Sharing Policy:

I will try to find some solution from coding point of view.

steeladept · « **Reply #44 on:** April 18, 2009, 04:03 AM »

Thanks. It really was kind of weird and obscure that something like that would have been the issue. Usually I don't ever get to the bottom of those types of issues. I am glad I did with this one.

sounds like a very useful tool! downloading now...

1.0.12 is out

When I was writing TC 7.5 post I found few thing for improvement so...

I've added splitter menu for easier position changing and Recent files menu. Additionally Export MHT feature has been implemented (under Tools menu). I hope it works well because that part was tricky for me.

I have also fixed few bugs:
- links to images were sometimes generated incorrectly when picture was in the same folder as BBC file;
- opening or saving files was freezing refresh panel; now refreshing is stopped until complete text reload;
- when user saved Settings (clicked on OK button), titlebar was informing that text itself has been changed;

steeladept · « **Reply #47 on:** April 23, 2009, 04:52 AM »

Not that I expected it to from your fixed bugs list, but that didn't help the working across the network problem I had - in case you were wondering.

Your problem can't be solved in BBCeditor easily because it's framework issue and MS security policy.

There are two ways for "fixing" it but they either are troublesome or are something I don't want to do:
- making installer which will change security policies on PC;
- make non-.NET loader which will do the same dynamically;

Both ways require same things: you have to store them on local PC and run each time you want to use BBCeditor.

How does it differ from current situation? You have to copy something to local machine and you will loose it after restart.

The only way (but not secure) is to have valid network policy set in backup system's image. If your administrator allows to run other executables from network than it should be no difference for him to add a rule for .NET.

That link should explain how to do that:

1.0.13 is out!

Changes:
- fix for fonts change;

Please note that font fix (available on "Appearance" tab of "Settings" dialogue) might cause flickering.
