|
|
I am hesitant to announce that I've uploaded a new version of BricxCC to my website. This release comes in a full-featured install executable. As a result the download is a bit larger (i.e., 1.6MB). This release hopefully will fix the problems some (...) (23 years ago, 16-Feb-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

(...) I'll let you know... (...) My sanity thanks you! (...) Thanks again! (...) You never fail to impress me with the speed of your updates. Don't tell my employers though, they'll expect the same from me. ;-) Matthias Jetleb (23 years ago, 16-Feb-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

Hi John, I've played a bit with 3.3.3.8 release, and I didn't experience slowdown (it needs confirmation, but you seem to have fixed that!) The new installer went fine on my machine. I miss a feature: some mean to conveniently switch between open (...) (23 years ago, 16-Feb-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

hi John, everything seems to work fine now, I couldn't get it slowed down. A funny effect, everytime you start BricxCC, it sizes to the previous size, ok. Now opening a file (from the recent file list), BricxCC fills the whole screen. Thanks for the (...) (23 years ago, 17-Feb-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

(...) I can't duplicate this behavior. I think it might have something to do with those pesky DSK files (maybe?). Can you check to see if the files listed in your recent file list have associated desktop files (*.DSK)? Thanks, John Hansen (23 years ago, 18-Feb-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

hi John, thanks for your attention. I know the cause, you know the solution ;-) The size of BricxCC when opening the first file, depends on the SIZE of the file to be opened. 8 bytes, window stays as it is 256 bytes, blows the window up to about (...)

(...) Well, I'm stumped. I cannot get the behavior you describe to occur no matter how hard I try. I'm not sure what you mean by "I know the cause, you know the solution". Have I understood your description of the problem correctly? Are you saying (...) (23 years ago, 19-Feb-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

(...) Yes that's exactly what I'm trying to say !! To day I had an even stranger experiences: 1. the size of BricxCC became smaller after opening the first file, still depending on the size (or is it the content) of the file 2. in one of the tests I (...)

(...) Try this. 1. Delete the BricxCC key from the Registry (HKCU/Software/BricxCC). 2. Run BricxCC and bring up the Preferences dialog. 3. Make sure the "Autosave Options/Project Desktop" checkbox is NOT checked. 4. Close BricxCC. 5. Use Explorer (...) (23 years ago, 21-Feb-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

hi John, getting the latest video driver (Geforce 2MX, driver DetonatorXP v23.11) didn't help :-(, but .... you're new version 3.3.3.9 DID help :-) So thanks again !
