Oh ok .. That makes sense now.. I haven't used arrays so much lately. Thanks for making it clearer.

Can the backgroundcolor and the font (size - bold ...) of an edit extended window be changed?

I haven't sufficient experiment on Edit Extended; so, I haven't a neat answer for your question.

The source code of Edit Extended is here : <hmg_Root\Path>\SOURCE\EDITEX\h_edit_ex.prg

You can read, inspect and change (if necessary) it.

Regards

Thanks for the information.
Do I only have to change that sourcefile, the rest is automatically adapted?

Sadly no :(

After change(s), you have re-build library.

For more info, you can look at here for re-building issues.

My suggestion is : begin with source code of Edit Extended, you can build your own; only consideration is give a different name to it.

And, if the result will be satisfactory for you, please share it with us.

Happy HMG'ing :D

Isn't it possible too change the font (and other parameters) from within the application program, without touching the library?

If library module doesn't have (support) such parameters; no :(

furthermore I want to try recordlocking when double clicking to open the editwindow and I tried to use the source with this added at the end:

Code: Select all

function main
use klanten new
abm()
return
this compiles but when running I get:

Code: Select all

EDIT, workarea name missing
sorry for the trouble
thanks
Richard

Hello Richard
t57042 wrote:... i get an error:
I don't know what type of build process you are using ( I prefer always HMG-IDE ) :arrow:

If I understood right, something missing either your configuration or your build way (script).

- Open content of EditRExt.zip file to a separate folder.
- Open EdRExDemo.hbp file by HMG-IDE and press RUN button
OR
- Use a built script ( a batch file ) like this :

Code: Select all

   call C:\hmg.3.0.28\build.bat EdRExDemo
Regarding second issue :

EditRExt didn't change anything in HMG. So, you can't use it same as using EDIT EXTENDED. For using it you need

- Add EditRExt.ch file to every project folder
- Add this line to top of MAIN module file of your project :

Code: Select all

#include "EditRExt.ch"
- And for calling Edit RExtended, use

Code: Select all

EDIT REXTENDED ...
command; no any other command or function. Such as :

Code: Select all

function main
use klanten new
EDIT REXTENDED // no abm() or any other 
return
I hope this info will help you; please inform me about result.

Regards
