hmm, after looking at the error window, I see the screens dont support 1024x768?

Looks like it is limited by the size of the screen that the editing is being done on.

You are using a laptop right?

Here I am on a 1680 x 1050 and this is what I get.  Largest option is 1024 x 768.

EDIT: I see that the custom size is the max viewable screen area taking into account the taskbar.  If I autohide the taskbar it increases the max user defined by that amount.

Looks like scroll bars are going to be necessary for a lot of users.

Yes, that was my thoughts as well in an ealier post asking for the scroll bars so you make a Bigger screen on your smaller screen........ hehhehee



scott

Yeah I think scroll bars are going to be a must-have. 

Klaus I can't believe how great your editor is already.

We have been wishing for something like this for as long as I have been using Mach.

Fantastic job. 

Greg

I'm going to do some testing with this over the next few weeks. I'll let you know if I find any problems.

One minor thing that doesn't work. Options>Settings>Color Settings. If you add a Custom Color in the color picker dialog box, it doesn't get saved. So if you have a few controls with the same color, you have to manually choose it from each one.

Another minor thing,

The text in labels shows different size in the editor to what it does when screen is loaded in Mach.

This makes getting the text size to look right, difficult.

EDIT:  By the way it will be good to get your experience involved with testing Gerry.

Lot's of little things. Once I saved the .set file, I can't change the background color. I can change it, but it resets to the original color when I load it back in the next time.

Also, made a screen with a background .png and 4 DRO's. When I loaded it into Mach3, the background .png didn't show up. Reloading it got it to work. Anyone seen this.

Klaus, back to the "Lock for Mouse" issue. In Screen4, Locked items remain locked between sessions. In your designer they unlock when the designer is closed. Is there a way to keep them locked between sessions?

Here's a killer. Close the designer without saving, and it prompts you "Yes, No, Cancel". Cancel should return you to the program, and not close it. But, it closes it, and seems to leave a process running, because when restarting it it's very sluggish, and won't load the screen. Task manager showed 2 processes, and I had to kill them both to get it to work again.

One thing I can think of, may have been mentioned already. If you could have 2 screens open and could copy and paste between them.  That would be great but it allready sounds great. Thanks Klaus
