Work in progress / Re: win32-doc md files
Last post by John Z - May 29, 2025, 12:54:40 PMHi TimoVJL,
It is actually worse than you might think too.
HOWEVER -
I added a few code lines to your extract program and from the new extract I have built a new database, handling all identified API_NAME files. So it accommodates the inconsistent formats, and other issues.
The GitHub documentation was clearly (to me) done by multiple people/groups with various inconsistencies and no general oversight. Some API_NAMES are not even API functions, many files for the same base API Name bla bla bla...
So the new DB3 takes care of everything extracted by your extract program.
I'll create the new queries needed to output the filename to extract and show, next. Where there are multiple files for the same base API NAME the user will need to select, similar to HINT when searching a partial function name.
Another possible use of the DB is to create a treeview where the top level are the directories and child level is for the API NAMEs... easy for user to see/browse for the API function they want information on, clicking a child level item pulls the file from the zip and displays it.
Depends on how much work is to be invested in the final output.

Last post by TimoVJL - May 28, 2025, 09:44:48 AMA tooltip feature, not a bug.
QuoteMany applications create toolbars containing tools that correspond to menu commands. For such tools, it is convenient for the tooltip control to display the same text as the corresponding menu item. The system automatically strips the ampersand (&) accelerator characters from all strings passed to a tooltip control, and terminates the string at the first tab character (\t), unless the control has the TTS_NOPREFIX style.

Last post by omolin - May 28, 2025, 09:00:33 AMSimple to reproduce. In my case I has a wide string like this: L"abcd&efgh"
When I hover over the variable name in the sourcecode in the debugger, the ampersand is not shown in the tooltip text. In the Auto window tab, the same variable is displayed correctly with the ampersand.

Last post by icons2big - May 24, 2025, 06:07:01 PMI can't go lower than 100% and I wouldn't change the scaling system wide for one program anyway.
Why is there no option to change the size of the icons in the IDE?

Best to use the recommended, but you can try smaller setting.
