flyingboz Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 (edited) Moved by gratitude and respect for the creators of AutoIt3, Scite4AutoIt3, Tidy, PixelChange, and the graciousness and helpfulness of the vast majority of those I have had the pleasure to meet on this forum, I have created, using the tools mentioned above and the help of forum members....A Graphical Scheme Editor for Scite!!!Doc File: http://www.autoitscript.com/fileman/users/public/flyingboz/doc.htmlScreenShots:http://www.autoitscript.com/fileman/users/public/flyingboz/GUI_screen.pnghttp://www.autoitscript.com/fileman/users/public/flyingboz/ColorPick.pngExecutable:http://www.autoitscript.com/fileman/users/public/flyingboz/SciTeAu3_SchemeEditor.exeAll known issues resolved -- Still "beta" Version 0.2 will be released tomorrow night if all goes well -JdeB has provided the hooks to the O/S fontname/size selector. DK if this introduces any O/S version dependencies. All the GUI stuff to support font manipulation has been done, I just need to add the code to parse for scheme load and write out for scheme save...The link is "live" again, with version 0.1, which fixes several grevious errors.It Goes w/o saying - but: Code tested on my system (WinXPsp1) with no deleterious effects. Your mileage may vary. I take no responsibility for your system, or the programs you choose to run on it, or the effects that such programs may have, including the software referenced in the above link. I do welcome feedback / suggestions / comments couched in constructive and tactful language. Please note that I am not currently making the source available, as I'm still actively working on this, though I likely will not be opposed to doing so once this project leaves my active pile, should it gain traction.

CyberSlug Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 Dear flyingboz,After downloading and executing code that I believe you wrote, SciTe is much easier to customize Q: Is the color picker included? I get an error when I click the "Fore" or "Back" buttonsI've noticed that when I uncheck a box such as bold, nothing happens to the sample text...Sincerely,CyberSlug Use Mozilla | Take a look at My Disorganized AutoIt stuff | Very very old: AutoBuilder 11 Jan 2005 prototype I need to update my sig!

flyingboz Posted August 31, 2004 Author Share Posted August 31, 2004 CS, Thanks for checking it out. I'd love to hear your suggestions for ease of use. I do find it easier than keeping track of all the style number, and being able to quickly click on three or four colors to get what I want. I have id'ed the bugs you noticed, and will get the fixes out PM. The PickColor is to display a bitmap - I was trying to fileinstall() it to system-specific location --Do you think a different style of color picker would be preferable -- I thought about list boxes, and edit fields ,etc. Haven't isolated the fontattrib toggle --- must have introduced a bug adding caret.line support. The fore isn't supposed to do anything -- fixed back works great when the pickcolor doesn't fail -- added errorchecking for that, too. Reading the help file before you post...

Developers Jos Posted August 31, 2004 Developers Share Posted August 31, 2004 This has been on the wishlist for a while but never started to work on it... so great you are doing this because a lot of people asked for it. (They don't seem to like my default color settings... ) The screen captures look like a good approach for selecting colors.. Maybe the fonts selection can be included as wel ? Would be happy to work with you to help out and to integrate it in the Scite4Autoit3 installer.

flyingboz Posted August 31, 2004 Author Share Posted August 31, 2004 I'm working contract right now, so my schedule varies. I hope to have the known bugs knocked out by tonight, and jdeb and I are chatting offline about the font enhancement and other questions I have for him re: ensuring that this is useful. I'm really excited to be able to give back to the Au3 community. So hold on to your britches, ezze --- if you want to pay me, I promise I'll get you a copy first Reading the help file before you post...

bshoenhair Posted September 2, 2004 Share Posted September 2, 2004 flyingboz Nice, I have one I made one similar to yours. I have a suggestion if it is only used for au3.properties. When it first opens why not search "program files\AutoIt3\SciTe" and "program files\SciTe" for the au3.properties and have it load the styles automatically. Would be nice if the FileOpenDialog should be a last resort. Maybe JdeB can set a registry entry in the Scite installation that you can use.

bshoenhair Posted September 2, 2004 Share Posted September 2, 2004 (edited) flyingboz When you close or cancel the FileOpenDialog you get an error. Noticed the colormap.exe sure is heavy 592KB ? Edited September 2, 2004 by bshoenhair Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingboz Posted September 3, 2004 Author Share Posted September 3, 2004 flyingboz I presume you mean when you don't open a file --- that would be a lack of errorchecking Noticed the colormap.exe sure is heavy 592KB ? <{POST_SNAPBACK}>fileinstall() fullcolor bitmap with a gradient grayscale - jdeb has graciously provided a c++ util he wrote to get the o/s color dialog -- trade off in size vs. "one-click" color selection.

Chris_1013 Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 (edited) Thanks guys, this looks good (although I'm not terribly unhappy with the default settings in SciTe, it's nice to have the option). Is this going to be added to the next SciTe update installer? Edited October 6, 2004 by Chris_1013 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

emmanuel Posted October 8, 2004 Share Posted October 8, 2004 Yeap... <{POST_SNAPBACK}>how about the ability to open different config files, like I'd like to customize something for .au3spy so I can look at output from the spy a bit clearer...

MHz Posted October 9, 2004 Share Posted October 9, 2004 (edited) JdeB, there is that issue with @UserProfileDir that causes SchemeEditor to fail....<{POST_SNAPBACK}>I downloaded the au3 file and used replace in in Scite to change @UserProfileDir to @HomeDrive & @HomePath. But it is asking for files while compiling. I have the 2 files that extracted from the original but am unsure exactly about any others files that it is asking for?JdeB, I have found a temporary solution here until the @UserProfileDir bug is fixed.
