My 2nd Publicly Released App - TextBoard
« on: July 18, 2017, 02:42:30 pm »
Hi,

Not sure where I can post this... for those interested.
Here is a FREE Windows app called TextBoard.

This was an old program I made in Visual Basic 6 a long time ago.
So, I converted it to LAZ.

It is Windows only (sorry)

It's a small utility for quick copy/pasting of your most used text/rtf snippets.
Great for programmers.

Thanks for sharing.

:D It looks nice, you use your own custom title bar. It even runs on my Ubuntu, unfortunately the "New File" feature didn't work on my Wine testing. I wonder why you do not make it cross platform, so more users can use it.

I used Windows Process for the title bar.
That is the only thing making it windows only.

And... what do you mean the New File doesn't work.
All it should do is clear the text box. You enter in text, then save it.
That isn't happening??

Nothing will happen if I click it using the right click pop up menu. It works only if I use the first icon on the toolbar.

Hmmm.... somehow the onClick event got disconnected from the procedure.... will post fix in a few minutes.

LOL... yeah all I had to do was click on ".." button in the properties window and it rehooked it back up. The procedure was already written, but just got disconnected somehow.
Then I just re-compile and compile my setup... I use Inno Setup.... written in Pascal BTW   :D

Nice idea.
Also good to know I'm not the only one who saves snippets to text files !

I also wrote my own SideNote. It is a cross platform minimize-to-tray note taking utility. It is free, but has not been publicized because it's still on the testing stage.

Nice... Where can I take it for a spin?

I like how Ubuntu gui looks.
