Hi

I just got extends and can't run the XGUI or XFont demo programs without a crash.

I am running Vista64 Ultimate. I get the impression from searching the forums that this is a known issue and I am not alone.

Does anybody know if there is any progress towards fixing these issues?

While the other extends functionality will be useful for me I could really use that GUI

Cheers

Hello,

It's something I'm working on without actually a 100% solution.
It's apparently something related to string and memory allocation ...

There is a workaround with this.
Run your app in Compatibility mode set to Windows 98

This is a workaround until I release a new version that'll fix this issue.

Kindest Regards,
Fred

In fact, you must compile your program and then set compatibility mode to the created .Exe file

right mouse button click on the file
left click on properties
left click on compatibility
set it to Windows 98
Apply changes
run the .exe

It should work until I fix this issue...
