The manual arrived promptly and is very helpful - I'm surprised how much I have remembered over the last 20 or more years since I did any programming. I have spent a useful few evenings with AppBasic working on a little program which is progressing nicely. When I returned to it today I find that I can no longer adjust the size of gadgets in the main window using !ResEd (0.76 12 Apr 2008) as the little handles only appear briefly when I select the gadget. This also applies to any new gadgets I try to insert. All of this on VA. If I import the program to this RPi where AppBasic runs (somewhat shakily) under Aemulor I am able to perform the required edits although, I have just noticed, this is with !ResEd (0.33 25-May-95) which has fewer gadget options. This is a bit frustrating and disheartening and I'd appreciate any hints as to what I might try. Thank you. -- _____________________________________________________________________ Brian Jordan RISC OS 5.23 on Raspberry Pi _____________________________________________________________________
