Edit: v7.51 was released. It fixes several issues related to the search feature.

Hi Erel.
When is the cross in the Search field active ?

When I click on it nothing happens.

When is the cross in the Search field active ?

for me it is available after i entered a search (CTRL-F)

When I click on it nothing happens.

It is clearing the text entered here.

before click

after click

 

[Erel]

Klaus, does it never work for you?

 

[klaus]

Sometimes it works after several clicks somewhere.
I am not yet able to reproduce it systematically.
If I select a previous search and I click on the cross, nothing happens.
Then I click somewhere in the code area, click on the cross, nothing happens.
And sometimes when I click in the top left part of the title line and click on the cross it clears, but not every time.

It also never works for me. After I have started typing in the search box it behaves as part of the title bar. When I left click the mouse in the search bar it it does not place the insertion point and if I left click and drag it moves the IDE window on the screen as though I clicked elsewhere on the title bar.

I also occasionally get an error message pop up when I am moving along the search text with the arrow keys and typing or back-spacing, It says something like "Dispatcher process --- message processing continues" or something similar. I am not really sure as it vanishes quickly.

I'm afraid that it's not usable as it is on my system. Surface Studio - Windows 10 Pro 1809

 

[klaus]

I am getting the message too.

Windows 10 Family 1809

Can you enable the IDE logs and post them: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/posts/50478/ ?

Does the other title tabs work properly? Are you able to click on them?

 

[klaus]

When I click on the search field, and then move the IDE form in the title bar, almost nothing works anymore, no tabs and even editing the code doesn't work.
Only one works, opening the Designer.

But the IDE remains blocked.

 

[agraham]

Yes, they work when I click on them but drag the window when I left-click, hold and drag. They don't look good though High Dpi problem?

 

[Erel]

The mouse issue is probably related to the "dragging" feature. I will upload a new version without it (tomorrow).

They don't look good though High Dpi problem?

Probably. You can disable this feature by editing the INI file.

I have not experienced any problems as yet like Klaus, I'm on Windows 10 64 Bit 1903

 

[sorex]

The window can be dragged directly from the tabs.

What exactly does this mean?

I can not drag them down to the edit window. I can just click on it.

Or should it be "opened" ?

The search clear work fine on 2 computers here altho I was sure that it didn't on one of them after I installed the search focus fix earlier today but as I saw that Klaus already reported it I didn't mention it.

 

[DonManfred]

I can not drag them down to the edit window

It means you can Drag the IDE-Window using clickandhold on the Tabs. Like as you were doing it with the windows titlebar.

 

[Cableguy]

Just installed final version, tested the issue at hands and for me its working as it should

 

[klaus]

Complementary information.

In this case, clicking on the search field, holding the left mouse button and moving, everything works OK.

In this case, clicking on the search field, holding the left mouse button and moving, the IDE is blocked.

 

[sorex]

It means you can Drag the IDE-Window using clickandhold on the Tabs. Like as you were doing it with the windows titlebar.

indeed but only if the window is not maximized which was the case when I was dragging earlier (being maximized).

dragging on the purple bar pulls it out of maximize mode tho.
