I hear what you are saying re: RADBasic. I hope he makes more progress and proves to us all that he is a contender. He has a lot of catching up to do.
Faf. I always look forward to your next...

Really enjoying coding in VB6 at the moment. Nice when you seem to 'fly'.

I have been performing a code review of my own code, not...

I guessed that it was a little tongue-in-cheek but in truth I do not want to dip into Discord at the moment as I have enough to take on my precious time. I do tend to become sucked into something new...
-
I found two resources that allow conversion of a function from .js to VB (.net), one uses AI, unsure about the other. The conversion to VB.NET is often reasonably done but then requires some fettling...
-
Put the poll here too to allow local voting and discussion. There are many here that just don't want a discord account but might still want their voice heard - you know the type, the 'older' vb6ers...

I have toyed with that idea too. A polished wood panel that the monitor is mounted upon. A plush wooden frame with brass embellishments. It has been done before and given time I will do it myself!

My 4K desktop showing the two editors side by side and the .js/VB6 equivalent code before/after conversion.

You realise how superb the...

Yes, I sort of get that. I have need of the same for one of my other VB6 programs that would really benefit from being able to embed one of the dieselpunk gauges onto its surface. I will add it to...
-
Impressed. The idea of creating a control panel applet is an interesting one. I will need to add some sort of control panel for my desktop widgets/trinkets and that might be an option.
OK, I...

I have just moved into a new home and so my work rate in code has drastically reduced. Despite this I am managing to do a little every day.
My weather gauges are moving ahead, the single master...

Good to hear that! I created thomething thimilar for Mars Chocolate, taking data from a PLC controlled by a PDP11 and then formatting the data realtime, to show actual production levels graphically,...

You need to demonstrate that.
-
THAT is a good thread. So good to learn stuff like this.
-
When I want to detect whether a system has just awoken from sleep I have used a stored timer and compared it against current system time, if there is a discrepancy greater than the timer interval I ...
-
That is great. Each VB6 creation is just as valid as another. My creations look great at least, to me - but not to others!
Your software is doing a REAL task which mine are not. Mine are just...

I'm getting there! Several gauges built now. Smooth animation added to the pointers. Need to test and implement multi-monitor handling, need to unpack my other monitors from over 100 boxes (just...
-
Undead? Well, in my living zombie existence, that makes some sort of sense. I look for the light of at least partial resurrection in TwinBasic and possibly even the lesser God, RadBasic, in time.

I don't think gaouser is learning about software development in VB6, I think gaouser is just DOING software development. So far, nothing can stop him!

There is already a FOSS Paint, C++.

Top tip in raising a request for help on this forum: Don't ever say, "How do I do this in VB6?" as the subject. Either no-one or the wrong person is likely to turn up and respond - like me now.
...

40% of the time it works EVERY time.
-
Switches/flags/options to do this or that for compatibility. There are ways.
-
If you had a degree, you had C.

I'm going forward with it after going back to it.

VB6 does graphics well with a little help from Olaf's RichClient framework. You can see my VB6 creations starting to appear here: https://github.com/yereverluvinunclebert
Don't discount VB6 as...

Years ago, I once naïvely offered all my Konfabulator widget graphics on the VB6 side of the forum hoping someone would pick up what I had offered and then create an equal VB6 masterpiece from each....

Microsoft has a terrible relationship with synching. Remember that.
o Briefcase, mucking up your documents.
o Windows desktop, a structure synching to the filesystem and not part of it, mucking...
-
Sounds like a good model and a good compromise to me.
Access to support forums could be controlled by quoting a current user subscription/product ID? Just thinking. Possibly not a good idea but...
-
Nice to be mentioned as having influenced TB a little bit, thanks Faf and thanks Wayne in particular. These days I consider title bars to be an extra special additional feature, perhaps Wayne should...

Starting over is the hardest thing to do, especially when you realise you have been doing something fundamentally wrong all the time. This realisation can prevent you restarting altogether.
What I...

Pretty picture please Peter Porter, pronto!
I agree that the SUV style is universal now. You can barely tell one from another.
Re: the technology, The playing field is levelling now with the...

Rust! The bane of all classic car owners. One day we will learn how to reassemble the rust molecules into original parts. People will wish they'd kept their bags of rust... perhaps not.
Just had...

and now it is renewed with the new ingredient - 64 bits of TB.

Migrate to VB6 - it has a future!:wave:

This forum has changed previously loaded and correct images for me as well, turning them into malformed URLs. Not recently though.
Oh yes, Helloooo Niya.

I have recently come across examples of imgur disposing of old images older than 15 years, the particular site was from 2007. It was an unexpected event as imgur seemed to retain images longer than...

Made me listen to this gem:

Techgnome, Some small changes to make your code operate correctly.
Dim MetarNode As MSXML2.IXMLDOMNode
Dim SkyCondition As MSXML2.IXMLDOMNode
Dim SkyConditions As...

You are also correct with regard to JSON. I'll take that advice on board.
-
Techgnome, you have definitely set me on the right path. I was doing an analogue of that but I had missed out a couple vital steps, in particular the SET to a particular node. Thankyou. I feel I have...
