291 | Koda | Application | Bug Report | Low | Form styles: a few definitely don't belong to Form | Unconfirmed | Chris Haslam | 09.06.2011 |
Task Description
WS_GROUP and WS_MINIMIZEBOX have the same value, so WS_GROUP is not a constant for a Form. So remove WS_GROUP. See FS#267 .
The value of WS_OVERLAPPED is zero. It has no mask. So I suggest that it be removed from OI.
WS_SIZEBOX and WS_THICKFRAME have the same value, so I suggest removing WS_THICKFRAME.
WS_TABSTOP and WS_MAXIMIZE have the same value, so WS_TABSTOP is not a constant for a Form. So I suggest removing WS_TABSTOP.

298 | Koda | Application | Bug Report | Low | Styles dialogs suggestions | Unconfirmed | Chris Haslam | 08.09.2011 |
Task Description
I have made some more progress: I have improved the Form dialog, and present the Label dialog for the first time.
I am beginning to think about Pic, Icon and Graphic. Here are my thoughts:
The following SS constants only apply to an image: SS_BITMAP, SS_ICON, SS_REALSIZECONTROL, SS_REALSIZEIMAGE and SS_RIGHTJUST. Which of these does Picture Editor handle? Which does the proposed Styles Editor need to handle?
I have learnt that ControlSetText() can be used to show text in an apparently image-only Static control. So the Styles Editor for Pic, Icon and Graphic could look much the same as that for Label. Would it be identical?
It occurs to me that if Koda will have a Styles Dialog for images that has styles for text, it would make sense to have Code Generator generate the call to ControlSetText().
More thoughts are in the attached readmes.

300 | Koda | Application | Bug Report | Low | Multiple selection of controls within a Group | Unconfirmed | Chris Haslam | 25.06.2011 |
Task Description
I have written in the proposed Help:
To select all controls in an area of the active form, hold the left mouse button down and drag to select an area of the form. All controls wholely within, and partly within, this area are selected.
This often does not work when I try to select several controls in a Group, and is driving me nuts with the Style dialogs.
I suggest that Koda be changed such that:
clicking within a Group in the Design area does not select the Group
a Group can only be selected in the Design Area by clicking on (or near) its border, not on a drag handle.

With the attached .kxf file, the icon is visible at design time but not at run time. The icon is number 0 in shell32.dll. Other icons in shell32.dll work OK. Icon 0 in moricons.dll also does not work.
This may be an AutoIt error. If it is, is there a way for Koda to work around AutoIt’s bug?

306 | Koda | Application | Bug Report | Low | Generate Code button | Save to file | Unconfirmed | Chris Haslam | 25.06.2011 |
Task Description
I created a form in the Design Area but did not save it.
I clicked the Generate icon.
At the Code window, “Save to file” showed. I clicked on it.
Koda said “Your current form is not saved. In order to use the Update function, you must save the form before saving the script”.
But I wasn’t using the Update function, so I suggest that “In order to use the Update function” be dropped from this messagebox.
BTW Yesterday I met a message that contained “it’s”. There is a growing tendency in English usage to use “it’s” rather than “its”. Correct usage is:
“it’s” is the abbreviated form of “it is”, just as “wasn’t” is an abbreviated form of “was not”. The “‘” shows that one or more characters are missing.
“its” is an exception to the general rule that “‘s” indicates possession, as in “Koda’s design”, which is exactly equivalent to “the design of Koda”
“its design” is good English.
There are cases in computer-eze where I do use “‘s” to indicate a plural because it seems to be the only way to be clear. An example: “there are five #include’s in my script”.

310 | Koda | Application | Bug Report | Low | #Region includes path | Unconfirmed | Chris Haslam | 25.06.2011 |
Task Description
When code is generated for the attached .kxf, the #Region line is:
> #Region ### START Koda GUI section ### Form=F:\AutoIt scripts\Koda devel\Styles dialogs\List styles suggestion.kxf
I don’t know how the path got included in this line. I can tell you that I did the following early in developing the List script:
In Koda, saved the Group script as List styles suggestion.kxf in F:\AutoIt scripts\Koda devel\Styles dialogs
Changed Group to List in the form, and saved it again
Saved the Group script as List script
Changed the #Region line from Group to List
Exited Koda and ran it again
Chose Update script
Now Update script complains some of the time when I do Update script.
I know that on one occasion when I had trouble, I had most recently saved F:\AutoIt scripts\Koda devel\Listbox example.kxf. I had exited Koda and had run it again. I then probably opened the List script, then closed Listbox example.kxf. So for a time, forms in 2 different directories were open.
Sorry I can’t be more specific.
Now Update script is working OK. But I note that Generate shows the full path yet only fnam.ext is in the #Region line in the script.
I will try to be more specific when it happens again.
BTW The List form and script are still being designed.

I think it would be clearer if File | Open were split into two:

$ListView1 = GUICtrlCreateListView(" | ", 128, 56, 257, 289, BitOR($GUI_SS_DEFAULT_LISTVIEW,$LVS_NOCOLUMNHEADER))
does work.
Koda then generated:
GUICtrlSendMsg(-1, $LVM_SETCOLUMNWIDTH, 0, 50)
GUICtrlSendMsg(-1, $LVM_SETCOLUMNWIDTH, 1, 200)
Apparently AutoIt needs a space before and after the |.
I consider this to be an AutoIt bug, but Koda is the servant of AutoIt, so ...
If AutoIt ever fixes this bug, Koda code generation will still be OK with “<space>|<space> “.

I have some labels in my program but when I set longer text in them it overflows and line breaks. So I prolonged them in Koda, saved, updated script with CTRL+U and it worked. Unfortunatelly next time after opening the KXF file I found all labels to have width and height reset back to the values set after their creation! Pretty dumb...I think this is a bug I found out it happens not only after reopening the form, but randomly during development when the project is open. The only workaround seems to be to add a lot of spaces to a label’s caption

Task Description
I have been working with Koda for quite a few years of the most annoying parts of the GUI editor is where i alter the height of inputboxes, comboboxes etc and adjust them to a value where these objects become smaller than the original value (input boxes have a value of 21, i rather cram the contents in 16 pixels which works just as nice).
Koda does accept it and adjusts on the form, but the minute i do something with the form in general or drag the object that is carrying it (frame) somewhere else, the height-value is being set back to the original can also save the form with its values, but when i reload, all values are reset to the original values that seem to be the “minimum” for those objects.
I rather don’t have Koda to touch these properties in any situation, they are manually adjusted for a reason.

Does this say the same thing:
Windows XP and up set the opened height of a Combobox. The Height property is the height of the closed Combobox.
My playing around shows that the height of the closed control is fixed in Design Area and at run-time (perhaps font-size dependent), and that when opened, the height is sufficient to show at least 15 items.

Task Description
I am inclined to think that Styles and ExStyles should be added to the documentation – for each control in the Controls section. That way, Koda goes even further to being the “one stop” place for GUIs.
Any thoughts?
Include would make the process less painful. There are some WS_ constants that are available to almost all controls, so it would be nice to be able to include multiple rows of a table in one VAR. Can Include do this?
I would copy the stuff from AutoIt, perhaps doing some re-wording where I can make things clearer (but mostly the AutoIt doc is fairly clear on Styles).
The Styles for Form are a problem: Microsoft defined them in odd ways. I can’t do much about that!
Should I create a commstyle page like commctrl?
