Ahhh ... auto-format doesn't trigger on changes made by an external editor (Notepad++). I needed to change the Tab Replace by space setting in NPP so I don't need to remember to run the little macro I created to to that before closing the file.

Thanks!

Find in Files/ Replace All seems to be having a problem with overwriting '(' and adjacent characters in the target text. If use, for example, the parameters below: Find in Files dialog.jpg The IDE changes the line below activityCombined_Updater::updateCombinedActivity(activityCombined_Updater::updat...

Solved: For some unknown reason, the FIF dialog was opening almost completely off the top of the desktop screen and only a tiny sliver of the grey bottom of the dialog was visible. I couldn't use the mouse to "grab" the title bar of the dialog because it was far off the screen, so I was able to relo...

C:\Program Files\zabkat\xplorer2\xplorer2_64.exe %* in the CMD file works if unquoted.

If it is quoted then xplorer2_64.exe does not handle the command line parameters.
Other applications may interact differently with CMD files with respect to quoting.

Surrounding the command C:\Program Files\zabkat\xplorer2\xplorer2_64.exe eliminates the error with Notepad++ but doesn't help with the VIP IDE. I notice that the Tool commands that are working point to C:\Program Files (x86)\... and the one for Xplorer2_64 is in C:\Program Files\... Could there be a...

Thanks, Thomas! I looked for hidden characters in the file name and found none. I tried running Xplorer2 from the Notepad++ command line and got this error message: Ashampoo_Snap_Thursday, August 13, 2020_11h13m51s_001_.jpg It will run from the command line (Win-R) and from the Xplorer2 command line...

There is no way in the Vip9x or 8x IDE. The right-click context menu option to Remove from Project also is limited to Packages, text files and resources, which makes sense since deleting just one of a class's files is illogical (although it might be logical to delete an interface whose name does not...

When I try to set up one particular application ( xplorer2_64.exe ) to launch from the IDE tools the application window (I think) flashes briefly and closes. It behaves the same whether the Wait status on the Configure Tools dialog is set to Wait , NoWait or Auto . The application folder and file na...

I use the very handy Ctrl-Shift-S approach often. What happened when I was trying to find the constant (stringFormatFlagsDirectionVertical) was that I wrongly assumed I would find it in the pfc\gui directory tree and searched files there for the substring "vertical" using Ctrl-Shift-F. The constant ...

Ahhh ... thank you.

I searched high and low for that constant in all the wrong places!

Is vertical text output supported in the graphics class? I cannot find ViP documentation on this feature, but it is defined in MSDN: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/gdiplus/-gdiplus-formatting-text-use ... Formatter = stringFormat::create(), % ??? How to set a format flag in Formatter...

It works the same way in VIP 9x.

I think you need to add the imageControl package to your project. In my system it is here:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Visual Prolog 9\pfc\gui\controls\imageControl\imageControl.pack"

It does not show up in the project browser until you add it, unlike most of the packages in the PFC.

You are infinitely more expert in Ring than I am.
