Dear thinBasic user,

we just released thinBasic programming language version 1.7.5.0

This new release is mainly a bug fix release for all the bugs reported from previous version but, as usual, we added something new.


First of all 2 new controls: UpDown and ViewPort
To check how to use them, see examples in respective directories: SampleScripts\UI\UpDown and SampleScripts\UI\ViewPort
UpDown control is a 2 arrow control that can be associated (SetBuddy) with a text control working together to let user setup numeric/text fields
ViewPort is an nice control that will let you manage complex windows inside a sort of ViewPort. ViewPort will automatically adjust vertical and horizontal scroll bars handling windows bigger than the parent window
Second: improved debugger.
Fixed many situations where GPF could occur.
Arrays or matrices up to 2 dimensions can now be inspected even if they contain thousands of values. I'm working on the 3rd dimension ;)


Regards
thinBasic team

Eros,

big thanks :o
Really nice example scripts for new controls, and debugging of arrays is the most comfortable I have ever seen!
As 1.7.5.0 is "just" bugfix release, all features will be covered in Journal for 1.8.0.0.

Thanks.
I'm trying to extend that visibility to UDT and arrays of UDT mixing a grid with a treeview. We will see.
Also trying to add possibility to change variable content on the fly while debugging. Changes for next version I hope.

Ciao
