Changelog
  • IMPORTANT: This is an interim/experimental release. It includes significant changes, so some instability is to be expected.
  • KNOWN ISSUE: UserControls from the ACTIVE project will not appear correctly in the form designer in this release (they are purposely disabled until next release). Packaged controls, such as VBCCR will work.
  • KNOWN ISSUE: Menus currently not appearing in MDI Forms (broken in this build)
  • KNOWN ISSUE: 'Scale*' properties are often not settable in the IDE property sheet (broken in this build)
  • KNOWN ISSUE: Setting Width/Height via the property sheet often does not work correctly (broken in this build)
  • KNOWN ISSUE: Controls are not being destroyed properly by the form designer, causing big memory leaks (broken in this build)
  • TIP: To download the release, expand the 'Assets' link below and download the 'twinBASIC_IDE_BETA_XYZ.zip' file
  • WARNING: there are known memory leaks in this version, so memory usage will be higher than normal
  • fixed: (regression) some tbShell demos (e.g. tbShellBrowse) not working properly, due to an accidental change in UC Initialize event handling, and UC Width/Height property bugs [ fafalone, discord ]
  • fixed: Cls() bug causing issues when AutoRedraw is TRUE [ XYplorer, private ]
  • fixed: excessive menu bar flashing due to redrawing immediately for each change [ XYplorer, private ]
  • fixed: 'memory locked' runtime error when populating menus dynamically [ XYplorer, private ]
