Other B4A v9.80 has been released

[Erel]

I'm happy to release a new version of B4A.

This update includes many IDE improvements and other improvements:

• Find all references, quick search and find subs / modules tool windows were rewritten and are now syntax colored, the text is selectable and you can jump directly to the selected position:
  
  
  
  
  
  
• Subs code appears in the quick info windows:
  
  
  
  
  
  This code is also selectable and clickable.
• Show Sub in window:
  
  
  
  
  
  Allows showing subs in a floating windows. The text is selectable and clickable.
  This can be triggered from all kinds of places including:
  
  
  
  
  
  And:
  
  
  
  
  
• Positions and layouts of all windows are preserved.
• Search results font can be configured from Tools - IDE Options - Font Picker:
  
  
  
  
  
  
• IDE shows available updates:
  
  
  
  
  
  
• Recommended targetSdkVersion is set to 28.
• Alpha value of text colors can be set in the designer.
• Fix for a crash related to B4XView.Color with Android 10 and targetSdkVersion >= 29.
• Better handling of errors in the IDE.
• Deprecation warnings for modal Msgbox.
• Animation to zero size no longer causes an exception in new versions of Android.
• Starter service subs can be accessed directly without using CallSub.
• Warning and errors do not hide other information:
  
  
  
  
  
  
• Copy warnings from list of warnings.
• Generate 'Create Type' Sub:
  
  
  
  
  
• Copy events:
  
  
  
  
  
• Modules list is saved in lexicographic order to avoid unexpected changes with source control tools.
• Resources in implicitly referenced b4x libs are now accessible.
• Other minor improvements and bug fixes.

Developers who are eligible for a free upgrade will receive an email with installation instructions.

B4A will become free in a couple of weeks, therefore discount offers will not be sent like with previous releases.

Note that B4J v8.10 has also been released with similar improvements.

Thanks guys. Just figured I post in the release thread as this error happened after downloading and installing the new update

See the thread https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/b4a-cant-see-license-file.79735/

That wasn't my problem. With or without the license file the error is there. I sent an email to the support email already though.
EDIT: Issue was resolved super quick and back to work like normal
