Hi Calidore -

If you would like to maintain a timestamp for each form, each form needs to be in its own macro. Calling ATGUIRUNMACRO will check/validate the cache automatically. But you would need to call ATGUIRUNMACRO for each form individually, rather than combining a bunch of forms in a single macro.

Thanks,

Pete

Ability to change the color of Tree control text items.
 
When using the Tree control I would like to see the ability to be able to change the text color.  So if I have a menu and the user does not have permission to run the menu item, I would like to still show those items on the menu, but have the text in a different color.

Access privilege control on menus, toolbars and all control items.

Possibly add a grid to each controls properties, which would have a security code range of say 1-99, with the ability to specify the access control for each code, e.g. Full, Read-Only, Disable, Hide etc.
 
When the form is built the access code for the current user would be passed to ATGUIRUNMACRO and the form would be modified with the relevant access restrictions.

On detecting when in the debugger...
 
What if the Windows side of the AccuTerm GUI watched for the typical prompts that the debugger uses on various systems, then after a bit of waiting if nothing else happens send a ? to see if you get the proper response from the debugger.  If so then display Debugger Active (maybe even give a GUI interface to the debugger prompt so wouldn't have to switch back to AccuTerm, but could step through code in GUI).
 
Something along that line might work, I would have to see the Windows code first to determine exactly how you detect the "stalled" condition.

The green screen version of acccuterm can be made bigger or smaller by draging the corner of the screen, but the GUI version does not have that feature. Is it posible that it might in the future?

Include a new property (for multi-line text boxes) to assign the maximum number of characters per line before word wrapping to a new hard CR line.

I would like an option with "Save As" in the WED editor.  I would like to save as, but to stay in the record I am in rather than switching to the saved as program.  We save a version of programs we update into an "OLD" file with the ID with the date appended.  I can save as BP.OLD ID.07232007, but then I am editing ID.07232007, I want to remain with ID.

Thanks,
Bruce

Wishlist item: Can a validate event supply the control's previous value as well as the changed value?

I saw this back on page 1, but I think it's worth repeating. Allow roping or multiple selection of controls in the GUI Designer. This will allow you to drag related controls around the form. Makes inserting a control much easier than moving all subsequent controls on at a time.

This is not a major thing. A Line object would be nice. You could use it to divide a form up. Flat or 3d option on it.

Option for the FTD Status Window to be a Windows Dialog Window to allow the user to monitor progress.

I too would like this feature, preferably a control which accepts and passes back HTML code.

How about a control that is an equivalent to the MS heirarctical grid. This control would lend itself to multivalue drill downs.

In reference to Deech's desire to be able to manipulat emultiple controls at a time in the GED: I was sorry to see that this is not in the new release - I would find this of great benefit as well, Deech

How about an option for ATGUIMSGBOX that would allow for a check box with a caption. I would use it for a "do not show this message again" option.

I just came here to request this and saw I did it last month so it must be something I could really use.

You could add 100 to the style argument to make the check box appear, and add 100 to the response argument if the box is checked. That would make the call compatible with older versions.

Sizable column option in list boxes like we have in grids would be nice.

A new tab in control properties called "Notes" for programmer notes. It would just contain a free form text box that we can make notes in.

More of an annoyance, scrolling left to right on a grid control snaps to the edges of the column rather than smoothly scrolling in either direction. For example if you have two columns in a grid control with a width of 200. Column 1 is 400 wide and Column2 is 10. If I scroll right Accuterm's GUI automatically snaps to Column2 so I have no way of seeing the hidden remaining 200 characters of Column 1. Please can you fix this for us? Thanks!

Please add control "anchor" properties (like Visual Studio) so when the user resizes a form, the controls can maintain their proper position and grow/shrink. I currently have this implemented using the resize event, but that of course requires a round trip to the server to update the control locations and sizes.

I'm not sure if this is the correct place to request a change in WED, but I'm sure it will be seen. Please add a toolbar button and / or function key that would simply put "IF GUIERRORS<1> >= 2 THEN GOTO GUI.ERROR" into a line. I can't tell you how many times a day I either type that or paste it.
