Hi :)
I'm posting the bug report here, because the winasm site is not working now (500 internal server error) :(
I've loaded a resource script in winasm, added an entry in the menu and saved it with a different name. I'm attaching both files. Things to note:

    [*]All controls are gone. They were not shown in winasm either.
    [*]All menu items IDs are reset to zero. Other IDs remained the same.
    [*]One of the IDs was truncated and corrupted... possibly the string was too long (CREATEPROCESS_MANIFEST_RESOURCE_ID).

BTW, is there any way to edit RC scripts "by hand" with the new winasm? :confused:

Thanks for the info. Let's wait Azrim to take control of the site.

1.I 've found the bug. Solved. You will have it fixed in the next release.
For the time being, if you change

IDD_DIALOG1 DIALOG DISCARDABLE 0, 0, 288, 190

to

IDD_DIALOG1 DIALOGEX DISCARDABLE 0, 0, 288, 190

you will see all controls.

2.I doubt that you lost only menu id's. You must have lost all id's. I guess that they are declared in YOUR "resource.h". Copy all declarations from this file and paste them to your *.rc file. Finally, Remove this line #include "resource.h". WinAsm studio does not read declarations in included files.

3.This is normal. Max length is 32 characters (inlcuding zero termination).

Merry Christmas to all,

You're absolutely right, only those in resource.h were lost. Too bad it doesn't read included files, I use them a lot :(

Consider it a feature request, then... ;)


Merry Christmas to you too! :)

Hi,

Could you please repost the bugs here?

I don't know what the problem with the site is. Let's wait a couple of days. If the problem is not solved I'll think of any possible alternatives.

I think I posted:

Bugs:
1) if you have a resource script with a menu and dialogs, after a modification, the menu number (identifier) will be not saved, and if you modify it again the whole menu declaration will disappear.
2) I cant select anything under the RC Options window.

Suggestions:
1) when I press "<-/-> up/down arrow" can you make the control who is selected move. and if I press shift + ->/<-/etc, can you make the control who is selected increase/decrease its width/height
2) if I press delete the control will be deleted
3) doble clicking a control in the toolbox will insert the control, so I dont have to drag it.

thank you :)

Hi,

Bugs
1.I remembered this and already fixed. You will have it in the next release.
2.You can only select if the resource editor MDI child window is active. This is not a bug

Very nice suggestions, thank you

work on a resource dialog and then exit winasm studio, then open again winasm studio, the resource dialog will appear, try to select a button at the RC Options windows, you will see that it is disabled.

maybe you should grayed the icons like you did with the toolbox window, that way we will know that it is disabled ;) (suggestion)
what do you think about adding an option to rename the project, because the menu item is disabled ?
what about instead of opening a dialog to rename a file in winasm studio, you just enable the EDITLABELS style in the treeview to type the new name ?

thanks for reading my suggestions :alright:

What about font-select for the dialogs in the dialog-editor? Very good work, though! I really like the GUI! ;) Keep up the good work!

-I can't really replicate this. I'll try more!

-Probably you are right;Thanks

-If you mean File-Save Project As this is enabled isn't it?

-I think the way I have it is more flexible. You can rename and put your file in a different location at the same time.

thanks for reading my suggestions :alright:

-If I haven't been reading and studing carefully all users' suggestions, WinAsm Studio wouldn't be what it is now.
