Igor Posted August 11, 2003 Report Share Posted August 11, 2003 PicturesToExe v4.10 beta #16 is releasedhttp://www.wnsoft.com/apr/apr_beta.zip (1.3 Mb)What's new in this beta: * Fixed minor memory leak in the Visual editor of objects after editing of transparent buttons. + Use "Caption of show" parameter (Project options | "Screen" tab) to display name of presentation in the caption of window or on the taskbar. If this parameter is not assigned then presentation will display name of .exe file (which assigned on moment of creation). + Various small improvements.p.s. it should be Release Candidate.

alrobin Posted August 11, 2003 Report Share Posted August 11, 2003 Very nice, Igor! Bill, I think the compromise, in the default "windowed" case, to use the file name as caption for both window and taskbar is a good one.Ciao,Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alrobin Posted August 11, 2003 Report Share Posted August 11, 2003 Igor,Would it not be easy to provide Ken's request and make it possible to add a different "comment" for a customized slide, the same way we can now change the font, etc. for certain customized slides?

think(box) Posted August 12, 2003 Report Share Posted August 12, 2003 Al, I was hoping that it would be just right .... If only I could download beta 16 and try it! Igor, the server for downloads (or the network path to it) has been down for over two hours. I'm anxious to check out beta 16 (thanks!). Could you please take a look at the server?

Igor Posted August 12, 2003 Author Report Share Posted August 12, 2003 Bill, try again, please. The server should be workable at present. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
think(box) Posted August 12, 2003 Report Share Posted August 12, 2003 Thank you Igor - the server is back and I tested beta 16. One Item is fixed , but one is not Part 1:PicturesToExe v4.10 beta #16 is releasedhttp://www.wnsoft.com/apr/apr_beta.zip (1.3 Mb)What's new in this beta: Â Â * Fixed minor memory leak in the Visual editor of objects after editing of transparent buttons.I tested the GDI Resource leak and it is still there, unfortunately. It seems to work no differently in beta 16 when compared to beta 10. I found that I didn't even have to actually edit anything in the visual object editor. It takes no more than the sequence of clicking Object Editor, then OK and repeat. About 1-2% of free GDI Resources are consumed every time the sequence is repeated. If it helps to know this, the show parameters used are:Windowed, 400x80, Customized slide comment (that displays when you go into vis object editor), PTE navigation bar with five of the possible PTE navigation commands used (that also displays in vis object editor), and a single object button (by the way, not transparent), with button action (any action can be used (maybe even none?) - I tried Exit and Help actions with no change in leak).The system is Win98SE, and PTE is v4.10 beta #16.By the way, I don't see this as memory being consumed until failure. It is just free GDI Resources that are running down to nearly zero before I stop repeating the "vis object editor, then OK" sequence. And once again the increasingly consumed GDI Resources from that simple repeat action are all freed upon PTE exit.Part 2:PicturesToExe v4.10 beta #16 is releasedhttp://www.wnsoft.com/apr/apr_beta.zip (1.3 Mb)What's new in this beta:+ Use "Caption of show" parameter (Project options | "Screen" tab) to display name of presentation in the caption of window or on the taskbar. If this parameter is not assigned then presentation will display name of .exe file (which assigned on moment of creation). The Caption of show change was tested in window with border, window without border and fullscreen modes, with a Caption of show and without a Caption of show (hence default applies). Eveything is flawless in Window title caption (window with border) and task bar caption (all six test combinations). Looks great!

Igor Posted August 12, 2003 Author Report Share Posted August 12, 2003 Thanks, I just fixed this memory leak, too!p.s. I use Task Manager from Windows XP which can show how many GDI resources takes each application. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
