Nice, is this still actively maintained @SMcNeill?
RE: QB64-PE Sample Showcase - grymmjack - 09-13-2023
Not working on mac. Segfault 11.
I wonder if it's MacOS font specific stuff? This is the same thing that is happening on @bplus Wheel of fortune game.

@Steve
The program 251 Tic Tac Toe is that original one travelling with the old Demo folder of ancient QB64 versions. You like to post the original game with the bug and not my fixed version without the bug!
I can agree,
Just a question about this showcase: is on developing a tool to add more examples to the list ?
If no is it possible to develope this feature/tool or it will be a fork with its own life?

Honestly, I'd more-or-less just forgot about this. LOL!
Adding more examples is basically as simple as just including them in the directories with a screenshot to represent them. All this little interface really does is just let us browse them, select one, and then QB64 compiles it and runs it from its home directory for us.
If you want to build upon it, or alter it, feel free!
RE: QB64-PE Sample Showcase - SpriggsySpriggs - 10-10-2023
Huh. Had no idea this existed. Kind of cool
RE: QB64-PE Sample Showcase - bplus - 10-10-2023
@SMcNeill I forgot about this too and it seems more fully developed since my last look at it.
Should the Search button work by just clicking it? It's not for me compiled on v3.8
Same with the Run button the up/down and page buttons are OK
Is this done?
If this is no longer a WIP then:
1. This could serve as gyrmmjacks suggestion for special picks
2. Need an "official" way to add to list or let anyone submit anything or a github thing?
3. Pin to resources boards for updates like with qb64pe maybe?
Update: OK Run did work on at least one.
RE: QB64-PE Sample Showcase - TempodiBasic - 10-11-2023
@Steve
Ok I'll play with it to get something more suitable.
1. adding the compatibility with QB64pe compiler. Now if you press R or click on Run you'll compile the .BAS if there is no .EXE also if you install this SuitCase with QB64pe

RE: QB64-PE Sample Showcase - TempodiBasic - 10-11-2023
Another minor fix
the actual program shows only .PNG screenshots.
But with this little mod it searches before for .PNG, then for JPG and JPEG screenshots.
Code: (Select All)
temp$ = "./" + SI(i).title + "/screenshot.png" ' here program searches for only .PNG files
If Not _FileExists(temp$) Then
temp$ = "./" + SI(i).title + "/screenshot.jpg" 'here program searches for .JPG
If Not _FileExists(temp$) Then temp$ = "./" + SI(i).title + "/screenshot.jpeg" 'here program searches for .JPEG
End IfRE: QB64-PE Sample Showcase - TempodiBasic - 10-25-2023
Hi friends
here a new step towards a more flexible version of the showcase
news:
1. fixed bug of index selection (loose in previous version for all code more then first 30)
2. added compatibility with QB64pe compiler (before it was not recognized)
3. added compatibility with Jpeg and Jpg screenshot (before it uses only Pgn screenshot)
4. added Status field to the UDT of database for better managing projects with chained files and projects with different files
5. added the managing of Multifiles to Run section via PopUp menu
6. added utility in SUB to translate old Index.txt file to new Index2.txt file with enlarged UDT and automatic definition of Status field.
please enjoy to run and play with this new version, so can find and fix bugs and unwanted features.

End Subthe first time you must run it as is to adjourn the Index.txt to Index2.txt file, then you can REM out newindex call from main .
you can see in the showcase that the kind of code (monofile/multifile) has been showed in text with red color
moreover when you press R to run the code on the side of showcase a popup list appears and using Up/Down arrows you can navigate it, while pressing Enter you will run the selected (text in Black on Blue background) file.BAS
Incoming an editor to build from zero an Index.txt with its folders' structure.
And another idea is to let to add new projects as files and in the Index.txt file and to let to exclude unwanted projects making thme invisible!
