Button with icons

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 11:07:35 +0000

Hello LitDev,

is it possible with the LitDev extension to display buttons with icons instead of text? It would be great to be able to use both the standard Windows icons and custom icons.
I want to build my DRAWING program using icons.

Many thanks

Draw sample

Hello everyone,
Here is a small drawing program using commands from the LitDev extension. Import TPJB64.000.

I'm still missing two subroutines:
Sub MoveObjektWithMouse
Sub RotateObjectWitheMouse

It could also be extended with additional objects.
Anyone who’s interested is welcome to take this as a challenge and share their own version here.

Best regards

LDCommPort

Sun, 13 Jul 2025 05:56:43 +0000

Hallo zusammen, ich versuche gerade, mit SB eine Steuerung für meine Modelleisenbahn zu schreiben. Dabei bin ich auf ein Problem gestoßen, das ich nicht lösen kann. Ich habe folgenden Code zur Steuerung der Lokomotiven erstellt.

lokAdresseTB = Controls.AddTextBox(20,930)
Controls.SetTextBoxText(lokAdresseTB, "3")

lokSlider = LDControls.AddSlider(150.930.200)
LDControls.SetSliderRange(lokSlider,0,126)
LDControls.SetSliderValue(lokSlider,0)

LokVorBTN = Controls.AddButton("▶️ Vorwärts",380,930)
LokZurBTN = Controls.AddButton("◀️ Rückwärts",450,930)
LokStopBTN = Controls.AddButton("⏹️ Halt",520,930)

Sub-LokSteuerung
adresse = Controls.GetTextBoxText(lokAdresseTB)
geschw = LDControls.GetSliderValue(lokSlider)

Wenn Controls.LastClickedButton = LokVorBTN, dann
LDCommPort.TXString("")
EndIf

Wenn Controls.LastClickedButton = LokZurBTN, dann
LDCommPort.TXString("")
EndIf

Wenn Controls.LastClickedButton = LokStopBTN, dann
LDCommPort.TXString("")
EndIf
EndSub

Das Problem liegt in dieser Zeile: LDCommPort.TXString(""). Hier behauptet SB, ich hätte drei Argumente angegeben, obwohl nur eines benötigt wird. Hat jemand eine Idee, wie man das anders schreiben könnte?
Der Befehl, der an die DCC-EX-Zentrale gesendet werden muss, sieht folgendermaßen aus: Das t steht für die anzusprechende Lokomotive; die 3 ist die DCC-Adresse, die 50 die Geschwindigkeit und die 1 die Richtung.
Viele Grüße, Eddie

LDGraphicsWindow.TransparentGW() only one

Wed, 11 Jun 2025 11:54:07 +0000

Hello LitDev,

In the BJTN694.000 program, I am trying to create four windows. Windows 1–3 using LDGraphicsWindow.TransparentGW(), and the fourth window with LDWindows.Create().
However, only the first and last windows are being generated. Can LDGraphicsWindow.TransparentGW() only create one window at a time?
Is there anything you can change about this?

Best regards,
Martin

working with two windows

Sat, 07 Jun 2025 08:42:07 +0000

Hello LitDev,

when working with two windows, the current window must be activated. In the first window, I create controls, such as a text shape. In the second window, I create a ListView. The second window is the active window. Can I simply change the text of the text shape, or do I need to activate the first window first?
The question is: when does a window need to be activated?
I’m looking forward to the answer.

Best regards,
Martin

Error by LDGraphicsWindow.FloodFill

Sat, 07 Jun 2025 08:31:12 +0000

Hello LitDev,
In the program MJPH297.000, the command

Code:
LDGraphicsWindow.FloodFill(HGWW, HGWH, "Yellow")

is executed incorrectly. It does not fill the rectangle in the center of the window. Could you please correct this?

Thank you,
Martin

Request for command extension LitDev

Tue, 27 May 2025 06:12:10 +0000

Hello LitDev,

could you please create a command that generates the contents of the current window as a PDF?
It should also be possible to save it afterward.

Thank you very much for your great extension.

Best regards,
Martin
