I need to sign up for an account to use this now? Tencent? Tencent likes to make hack attempts to my server.

Do not need to register, download can be practical

I take advantage of this little parenthesis on the doubt on the right to free distribute the software to inform that my dwarf rabbit had survived.

Hi visualfreebasic5,
It’s great to see this IDE progressing.

Unfortunately I have to ask you please to change the background image in your screenshot.
Many of you may not have any problem with it, but some people may consider it to be soft-pornographic, and I don’t want it to cause a problem for anyone - or to run afoul of our hosting agreement.

Thanks.

EDIT: Thanks for removing it. Much appreciated. :)

How is it possible that I didn't try this IDE before!
I was looking for something that was BASIC with an IDE like VB6, your IDE looks really great.
It's just a pity that is not in English properly, Both the IDE and its documentation :(

Here are some changes I'd like to see in your editor.

1. Keyboard shortcuts are always shown in brackets, this must be vissble just pressing Alt key, and only highlighting some letter of the word, not as a separate letter in brackets.
By example, Instead of

A quick mockup I did to show it better

2. I would like to have in the designer some grid/alignment system, to have a better control over the position/size of the elements.

This is a language translation problem. I don't understand English. Using machine translation, you can modify multi-language files to solve this problem.
Without the help of someone who understands English to organize the multi-language documents, I feel very helpless.

Don't think about it for the time being, I'll talk about it later.

I tried to fix it by manually modifying the language files, but I could not find these shortcuts anywhere in the language files.
In fact, the shortcuts are displayed exactly the same in all languages.
Note that in the image below I show the small changes I made as a test.

I would like to help translate VFB, although my native language is Spanish, I can read English and there are probably more people here who are interested in helping, and maybe someone who knows both Chinese and English.
In fact, someone has translated the VFB document into English :D

Chinse Text (with DeepL)

我试图通过手动修改语言文件来解决这个问题,但我在语言文件的任何地方都找不到这些快捷方式。
事实上,在所有语言中,快捷键的显示方式完全相同。
请注意,在下面的图片中,我展示了我所做的小改动,作为一个测试。

我想帮助翻译VFB,虽然我的母语是西班牙语,但我当然也能读懂英语,这里可能有更多人有兴趣帮忙,也许还有人既懂中文又懂英语。
事实上,有人把VFB的文件翻译成了英文 :D
viewtopic.php?f=8&t=29493&p=285871&hilit=vfb#p285871

我完全不懂中文,但你可以使用DeepL,它的翻译效果比谷歌好得多。:D
我只是用我的语言来写,然后把译文翻译回我的语言,以确保它是完全一样的。
这可能并不完美,但可能是可以理解的。

最好的问候

In fact, almost all of the VFB help file content comes from the wiki of this website, but it has been Chineseized and localized so that online help can be viewed without the Internet, which is very necessary. However, if you Englishize again, it is very difficult, because its content is all composed of html code, and is a sql database file, to batch Englishize, you must use sql to extract its content.
but i dont know how to use sql
What's worse,VFB's help file editing function is very difficult to use, so I gave up the complete Englishize plan, although it has a good code hint function

heh garbage way to download...
useless bloat on the package (altough it supposely having freebasic along is "ok")
it requires the IDE to compile anything made by it.. you can't export... you can't use it ouside the IDE
its OOP garbage only... so its useless...
the IDE just by opening uses 250mb of ram at minimum... which is 10x more than it should (at least it opens fast)

the IDE does not have a simplified mode... to generate simple apps
not possible to use single file instead of creating a stupid project everytime...

so overall while it seems to at least use winapi on windows to some degree
its rejected for me...

but that just isn't so.
The help system is a standard database, which can be programmed and can be modified at will.
VFB supports two kinds of projects. The default is project group file. You can also select single file mode, which is just one file.

Errors when compiling examples from VisualFreeBasic 5.7.5

Post by flaviofornazier »

Hi all!

Does anyone can help me to compile the projects located in "D:\VisualFreeBasic5.7.5\Projects\Example'? (especially "ComDemo" project).

When I try to compile the projects I always get an errors related to declarations and missing files... ;(

So, anyone, any ideas, tips or tricks?

Thank you in advanced. =)
