GUI Builder v2.5 - new version available

quark

I have just released GUI Builder v2.5 which can be downloaded here or you can wait for the PDE to detect the new version and install it then.

[Use with G4P v3.5]

So what's new?

Video guides have been updated for this version. Go here and then select GUI Builder Tool > Videos from the menu.

GPassword control added to control toolbar.

If you have limited screen space use autohide - when you press Ctrl+Shift+F5 the design window reopens.

GUI Builder window now closes when the parent editor (PDE) window closes.

GUI Builder will not attempt to open a GUI created with an earlier, incompatible version of this tool. Instead the user is presented with a warning message.

Can now use property grid to LOCK a control in the form view to avoid accidentally moving / resizing it with the mouse.

Code generation does not use methods deprecated in G4P 3.5.

WARNING: GUIs created with earlier versions of GUI Builder cannot be edited with this version

i am wondering why secondary windows created with guibuilder always remain in the foreground on OSX even when the sketch window doesn't (when switching apps).

The GWindow is created so that is is always on top. This is the same whether you use GUI Builder or create them yourself.

You can change this once the window has been created with

window.setOnTop(false);
