Thread: Maximum width of canvas = 1348921, but why?

  1. #21
    my OS is windows xp/32 . when i replace the new thinBasic_UI.dll which have size 170kb with the original thinBasic_UI.dll size 156kb i can run again the RichText control.
    if the thinbasic update needs dropping support for richText in winxp then thats okay , i use usually the TextBox which is usually easier to use than RichText. i prefer the Continuous canvas feature than the rich Text.
    in fact i have windows 7/64bit installed in the same machine but i don't use it, my brain is hard wired with windows xp like millions of other people

    No, no: I didn't want to force to move, just needed to understand to have a clue on where to check.
    I too still use XP at work due to some old software still needed.

    I will investigate because in reality I didn't change anything on how the RichEdit Dll is loaded from the OS.

    As you know I use the richedit control in the TAB program...

    Anyhow, just letting you know I tried the richedit001 sample program and it worked OK on Vista

    (with or without the %WS_EX_CLIENTEDGE)

    Using thinbasic 1.10.0.0

    i have rebooted and tried also in windows 7/64bit on the same machine and also issue the same error with RichEdit examples, while the original DLL for TB 1.10.4 works okay
    here is a screen shot from windows xp

    just a guess in the dark: what if the compression utility used to compress the dlls somehow ...(Fuzzy Logic sometimes works !!!). don't know since the catventure report it works in vista

    Thanks to all.
    I think it is related to new or changed SDK functions between Core engine and Modules I'm developing.
    Please wait till I will release complete thinBasic 1.10.5
