You can change the size of the buttons after dropping them on the form, with the width, height properties.

Is that what you mean or are you asking if you can change wx-devcpp to use a new default size so that you don't need to alter them later?

Just tested the latest build and I see that the issues I had have been solved. The image now looks correct. However I now realise why this may have been an issue, the documentation for wxBitmap says it is only for implementing icons and has a maximum sixe of 64x64 under win 9x. When I try my program...

Hi I am writing an application which basically opens and displays files. The problem I have is that at present I am using wxTextCtrl on a non unicode build of wxWidgets. However half the file I open are unicode16 and therefore do no display. As a result I have a series of questions. 1) Is there a bu...

I think the function you are looking for is SetShape(); This takes a wxRegion and only works on certain platforms. Example WindowImage = wxBitmap(_T("WindowImage.png"), wxBITMAP_TYPE_PNG); SetSize(wxSize(WindowImage.GetWidth(), WindowImage.GetHeight())); SetWindowShape(); wxRegion Region(W...

Will do

Hi I've not tested the new executable yet, but I have a new problem. I've reinstalled wxDevCpp now when I add a wxStaticBitmap component to a frame I can see the bitmap in design time. In the .cpp file the line #include "WxStaticBitmap1_XPM.xpm" is added, but the file WxStaticBitmap1_XPM.x...

Thanks for your response. I'll download it and give it a try possibly today, if not then tomorrow. Sorry I didn't post the message you asked for with the difference between headers, but somehow I seem to have messed up wxDevCpp and it stopped generating images at all. Just reinstalled to try to sort...

Sorry if I have created a misunderstanding the problem wasn't that it selected the wrong colour for transparency. Rather it seems to have decided that certain pixels should be transparent when I didn't want any of them to be transparent.

Just an inquiry as to what happened to the BeOS port. I read somewhere that there were several developers working on it, but it never seemed to get into CVS.

I just want say that I found a solution to my problem. Both the text styling and bitmap seem to be due to errors in wxDevCPP. First of all the text. This was the easiest to implement. All that was required was to stretch the textboxes so that they were longer than the IDE showed them as needing to b...

By the way to display your about dialog much the same applies. 1. Select the MenuBar icon on HRIRCBotFrm.wxform. Edit MenuItems. Select Help->About. Click the edit button. Click Create next to the On Menu event. This will recreate the on click handler. 2. Add the include for your about box, again be...

Hi Hades I've downloaded your source and made a couple of alterations, it now seems to compile and run fine. The main problem seems to be that you had two declarations of click events, I imagine that you created one, maybe removed it and later added another. wxDevCpp probably didn't cleanly remove t...

Hi you posted the link to the executable so that we could try it. How about posting a link to a zip file containing the source code so that we can try it on our own machines. I suspect that an unintialised pointer is being called. Do you set your pointers to NULL, if you create them before assigning...

Some possible points. 1. Did you include the header file containing the definition of you dialog. E.g. At the top of the file containing the function Mnuserversetup1008Click1 did you add the line #include"Nameofmyseverdialogfile.h" 2. Have you declared an instance of your dialog, either in...

I have been trying to design my own about box deriving from wxDialog. The first time I tried it looked fine in design view but at runtime the image was shifted to the right and clipped, also the text was clipped. I thought that this was due to a problem with not using sizers, so I tried again with s...
