02/28/2022

1.7

New commands and improvements:

Editbox: The wildcard character can now also be specified as a string

For already existing menus, the root and sub-sub menus can be redefined with #EMD

Combobox entries are redefined with #ECD and afterwards entries can be added with #ECA

Spinbox entries are redefined with #ESD and afterwards entries can be added with #ESA

Read object text numerically in registers (all partial spinboxes are interpreted together)

Windows BMP formats are now also natively supported for all images

Objects can now blink (#OVI 2) the current visible state will be inverted, therefore alternate blinking is also possible

Global blink time for objects adjustable #XBT

Filenames/Directories to StringArray #FNA, #FNB

File commands for direct reading/writing of variable types to/from registers/arrays

File commands for direct reading/writing to/from string arrays(binary) #FRQ, #FWQ

File commands for direct reading of numeric ASCII values in registers/arrays

Calculation commands : Calculate a 32-bit spinboxentry from a decimal number with number of digits

Calculation commands: I2C master send/receive error queryable mstIE()

Calculation commands :Query position/size of child objects

Major Bugs:

sprintf leads in rare cases (e.g. with %.2f,%.1f) to an incorrect display or to a crash.

For an existing picturebox, the entries could not be deleted (#EPD) and less could be added (#EPA)

Editbox: if the wildcard character was changed or deleted with #SEW, the cursor was at a wrong position.

 With multi-touch operation, one of the two up-macros with simultaneous release was not executed

 Strings that were placed in the full send buffer are blocking bytewise until string end (Timeout * characters e.g. 2s * 100 characters =    

 200s > 03 min)

 Master-Interface: Array send is working only a maximum of 1024 Byte (now max. 65535 Byte)
