Bugs in v7.3.05

Captive · Post by **Captive** » Sun Dec 12, 2004 10:11 pm

I've posted the following bugs (perhaps with less description/detail) in the past and have received no response or reply from support about them.

I have confirmed that the following bugs still exist in v7.3.05
_______________________

"X pos of Dialog/Ask/MessageModal windows on multi-monitor systems"
v7.3.05 - 12/Dec/2004

A "Dialog" window on a system with more than one monitor will appear on the second monitor. If the X position of the dialog is "50", and the resolution of the 1st monitor is 1024x...., then the dialog will appear at position X=1074. The Y position appears correct. Setting the X value to (1024-50) X=-974 will cause it to appear at "50" on the first monitor. The Dialog Editor shows the dialog position on the first monitor.

This also occurs with MessageModal and Ask dialogs.

"ResetDialogAction in non-modal dialogs with VAREXPLICIT=1"
v7.3.05 - 12/Dec/2004

The captions / text on components in Dialog's won't dereference when VAREXPLICIT is set to 1 and a ResetDialogAction is performed.

Let>VAREXPLICIT=1
Dialog>DTest
Label=Total,8,24
EndDialog>DTest
Show>DTest
MessageModal>Click ok to perform a ResetDialogAction.
ResetDialogAction>DTest
MessageModal>Click ok to close.

The text of the labels, etc. literally say "DTest.msLabel0".

As a temp workaround, it's possible to set VAREXPLICIT to 0 before ResetDialogAction, then set it back to 1.

"RegistryReadKey fails with values of type REG_EXPAND_SZ"
v7.3.05 - 12/Dec/2004
A RegistryReadKey of a variable of type REG_EXPAND_SZ will always return blank/empty.

RegistryReadKey>HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,SOFTWARE\Valve\Steam,InstallPath,sSteamPath
MessageModal>Key read as %sSteamPath%

Captive,

Thanks for the info. This is the first time I have seen these reports so either we have just missed your previous posts/emails or they have not come through. Anyway, they have been noted and will be investigated and we will endeavour to fix them.

Your welcome. Seeing such continued responsive support to a product is a very nice thing to see.

Captive,

We're trying out a bug tracker system for the first time. Could you submit these bug reports here:
https://www.mjtnet.com/bugtracker

If this software proves effective it should help us get better organised and not miss bug reports in future.

Added. The "Component" and "Severity" sections can receive some improvement, but in general it worked well!
