Hi VANYA
Was just about to start. I'll not do anything until you advise otherwise.

Hi RNBW!

This is now an edited help. Most of the editing was directed to the 2DDrawA, Image sections (where you should pay attention to the modified examples). It is best when translating to directly take examples from the Russian reference and copy into English, cutting out Russian comments in the examples (if any). From the dates in the English and Russian references, it is clear where the edits were made recently. Thanks!

This link opens for me, possibly cached. And if you change https instead of http., then it opens for you?

No problem here.

I used the link you provided without any problem however it really links to :
httpS://users.freebasic-portal.de/freebasicru/w9start.html

So try with 's' added.

Hi VANYA

I've started to go through the updated items in the 2D_DrawA section and I've tried out some of the code as I'm going along. Running the code in modedrawa I get the following error messages:

FbTemp.bas(6) error 42: Variable not declared, ANTIALIAS_BEST in 'ModeDrawA(ANTIALIAS_BEST)'
FbTemp.bas(8) error 42: Variable not declared, ANTIALIAS_NONE in 'ModeDrawA(ANTIALIAS_NONE)'

I note in your first post that you say to put files libwindow9.a, libLinked_Lists.a in the folder: compilier\lib\win32. I am working in win64 and have put the files there because I don't have a win32 folder. Is this a problem?

I am running the latest version of Windows 10 and FB compiler 1.07.3 - win64.

This is because you have an old version of the library. The new version has not been released yet. I plan to release a new version by May.

Since you are testing examples, I am giving you the source code of the library for Windows: https://disk.yandex.ru/d/FcrexE0s8S9mPw

I note in your first post that you say to put files libwindow9.a, libLinked_Lists.a in the folder: compilier\lib\win32. I am working in win64 and have put the files there because I don't have a win32 folder. Is this a problem?

Regardless of the operating system, library files can be:
1) in the same folder where and the source file that requires the library
2) in the directory where the other freebasic standard libraries are located (libfb.a , libfbgfx.a, ...).
Usually, with a standard FB compliler installation, the paths are located like this: for FBCOMPILER-WIN32 (compilier\lib\win32) , for FBCOMPILER-WIN64 (compilier\lib\win64) , for FBCOMPILER-LINUX32 ( /usr/local/lib/freebasic/linux-x86) for FBCOMPILER-LINUX64 (/usr/local/lib/freebasic/linux-x86_64).

I've now run a number of programs from copying and pasting from the Help file and from example programs from the February update that don't work. I'm a little confused (many have said I've been in that state for a long time). If the libraries are not to be issued until a new update in May: why provide code now that needs the new libraries?

I will continue to update the help file, but should I make it available before the May update? I will come back to you when I have finished.

I wanted to release an update to the library in one go, with an already prepared English help file. This does not mean that you have to rush. If you do not have time, then it's okay. Whoever needs to use the library will be able to use the Russian help file until the English version appears.
