pcsoft.us.windevCopyright 2026, PC SOFT23 Oct 2017 18:03:00 Z9 Oct 2017 15:29:00 ZHi Everybody, the FRENCH brochure for WX23 is out, and as I know lots of you are anxious to know, I'm going to give some basic information on the points I find interesting (so it's MY take only)... If you want a full translate, google translate is your friend. - The WXLadies are still here, no improvement. - WD, WB, WM: Layout field: It's a container field where fields are automatically positioned when you make one of them invisible by code, or when one of them become bigger. - WD: Image editor: What you had to do by code (and there was an example) to let your user modify images is now available as a field. - WD: PDF viewer: What you had to do by code (and there was an example) to display a pdf is now available as a field. - WD: Spreadsheet field is improved - WD: Word processing field 'comes of age' (and I'm quoting them here). - WD: Table in Table (dig in the data to see linked records) for table linked to a file. Also, option to automatically refresh the table when file is modified. Of course, all that could be done by code before. - WD: Several improvements in planning, calendar, graphs, - WD,WM: Planes can be named, so no more need of using constants to do that - WD, WM: you can see all planes at once - WD,WB,WM: when opening an example, a copy is made and you DON'T work on the original anymore. - WD,WB,WM: The image editor gets multiple improvements, and in particular can now generate multi-DPI images for mobile. - Analysis: mark field as "zombies", ie they shouldn't be used in the code anymore (and the editor will tell you). - Code editor: for those of you who like to type SQL core directly in the editor, it is now colored syntaxically, with automatic completion and syntax error detection/coloration - Functions accepting time/duration as parameter now accept a unit (5s, 10 min...) on top of their 500 hundreths of seconds or equivalent - numbers can be types with spaces/underscore as thousands/separators in the editor - Procedures can be declared as Zombies too (so a warning is generated if used) - All elements of a class can be declared a zombie too. - YOU CAN NOW IMPORT CLASSES or COLLECTIONS of PROCEDURES from a TEXT FILE: CODE GENERATOR, ANYBODY? - editor automatic completion improved: offers functions by theme, offers YOUR procedures, - Search window can now be used on the side of the screen/vertically (where we have lots of room) - HFSQL : a file can now be declared as non modifiable: you can only ADD in it. That will help a lot for audit/IRS/Tax controls. A new function allows to verify that it was not modified manually/outside your program. - HFSQL server now support kerberos for user authentification - WD, WM: Multi line text field can now increase in size based on content. Same thing for html fields and edit fields - WD: Silent install (no UI) is now possible - WM: New HTML fields: its possible to call wlanguage from it (open a window by example), to call JS code from the wlanguage/windev mobile window, can change size based on content, and there are new wlanguage code areas for it: end of loading, click on link. - WM: loopers can use a different internal window for each line. Height of line can adapt to content, - WM: Native fields container allows to integrate fields coming from external modules (SDKs) - WM: multiple layouts management improvements - WM: New BEACONs support/functions - WM: Simulator now displays the virtual keyboard to help configure UI. - WM: new functions for memory compress/uncompress, screen capture, battery level, waiting window, function to get information on the hardware (maker and model), - WM: Background processing by simply specifying a delay. - WM/iOS: apple watch 3 support, oAuth, proxy, - WM/ANDROID: CODE OBFUSCATION has arrived!!!!!!!! - WM: Scroll automatic of window for keyboard avoidance - WM/Android: numeric and int on 1 and 2 now available (also JAVA and Mac, as all that is in Java) - WM/Android: fingerprint reader management - WM/Android: Samsung DEX supported - WM/UWP: multiple new functions - WB: new photo gallery field (you had to use a looper before for that) - WB/Responsive: table control now changes when too big. - WB: Multiple little fields improvements - WB: Improvement on variables management: now a server variable CAN be modified on browser side and value sent back to server - WB: single page application is easier with new previous/next processes - WB/Responsive: the use of the LAYOUT new fields increases what we can do. - WB: we can finally say what style and hieght to use by default for all fields. And that's it for me... I don't care for the other ones :-) Best regards30WEBDEVen_UShttps://forum.pcsoft.fr/es-ES/pcsoft.us.windev/62885-topic/read.awpmoderateur@pcsoft.fr (El moderador)webmaster@pcsoft.fr (El webmaster)guestpcsoft.us.windevhttps://forum.pcsoft.fr/es-ES/pcsoft.us.windev/62885-topic-63054/read.awp23 Oct 2017 18:03:00 ZHi Fabrice I do not want to reinvent the wheel if I can help it.
