Re: Numeric entry with commas into Textbox

Hi RNBW, I wonder why you mentioned "Right-justified"? Right-justified means Right Alignment, as it is in Microsoft. Do you mean Text direction? Text direction makes a big difference in Microsoft. Actually, I don't know how to change the text direction from left to right to right to left ...

Numeric entry with commas into Textbox

This came from ChatGPT, with some minor changes from me. It will display delimiting commas as you type (e.g. 123456.789 will appear as 123,456.789). It inserts commas in the integer part of a number only. If you type in .123 it will display as 0.123 and if you type in -.123 it will display as -0.123...

Re: Problem opening and running LBB

Ran sfc /scannow and it reported that corrupt files had been found and repaired... Anyway, it didn't change anything. Nevertheless, it indicates that 'something' nasty had happened to your system, so there must be a suspicion that it still isn't right. I've given it up as a bad job. It's taking up ...

Re: Problem opening and running LBB

The original Reset didn't include the Sep 2025 24H2 update. I installed this and there were no changes to operation. My feeling is that it was this update that caused the problem. In the other thread Rod has reported that installing the September update hasn't slowed down LBB. I assume you've check...

Re: Problem opening and running LBB

I've now cloned the hard drive and set up the cloned SSD in my laptop. Just tried it out and, as expected witha cloned drive, no difference. Next step was to Reset Windows. LBB worked fine with this and was as sprightly as before. Downside: a number of my applications didn't work correctly, or not a...

Re: Win 11 problems

I would make the point that, although I am having problems with the speed of loading and compiling with LBB, LBB once loaded and compiled works exactly as it should. You just have to wait a long time to get the compiled program

Re: Win 11 problems

I am on Win11, fully up to date. Downloaded LBB, IDE opened immediately, my supertextbox demo opened and ran instantly, less than a second to fire up. I also ran my scrabble anagram search program that works on a big dictionary and it fired up and ran instantly, it completed twice as fast as Libert...

Re: Win 11 problems

Just done some checks following Guest's comments. 1. Scaling doesn't seem to make any difference to performance. 2. BBC for Windows: IDE opens quickly. File loads quickly. Type run and it takes about a minute for the program to run. 3. LBB: IDE very slow to open. File loads quickly. Type run and a w...

Re: Problem opening and running LBB

Unfortunately, I think Carl Gundel has been sidetracked by other things recently and he is also trying to make LB5 multi-platform. He hasn't found a replacement for Stylebits, which makes text alignment in a Textbox difficult. I recently set this task and no firm result was found by senior members. ...

Re: Problem opening and running LBB

Have you tried using LB5? It's far from the finished article and progress in development is very slow. It may be that at some time in the future, when it is finally developed out of the Beta stage, it will be superior to LBB. Until then LB 4.5.1 is better than LB5 as is LBB. My intention is to clone...
