I'm very impressed !!!!!... Many thanks to share this basic code and new version.. Now I can make something!!
those imageboxes are very powerfull.. And i was very surprised about the moving speed and cpu power consuming
now i have to come with a new idea

I just looked (again) to the puzzle application I'm still surprised how easy you can make applications with symstudio on the MSX !!

BDW: I like the splash screen Wink

Well I guess thats the benefit of having an OS system like symbos that it does so much for you. Im still amazed at what Prodatron achieved.

Symstudio was imagined initially as a way of making form and object data quickly... which turned into the relocatable assembler... graphics package etc and eventually symbasic. The main reason was the hope that we'd build the amount of apps enough that symbos became a truely usable everyday OS, which didnt happen and motivation waned. I guess partly because the project was so big and was never 100% stable.

I think prodatron and I have made a vow that we'll make 2014 a good year for symbos and symstudio and hopefully will drag a few msx, cpc and pcw users along with us too.

yes! Symbos is so amazing! (on a z80) What if we had this back in the '80 ?
Now symstudio is working better with the new release I will work on new applications in 2014! .. I already have some ideas Smile But I will begin with a simple app to get more familiar with symbasic.
2014 is already a good year for me Big smile

About the mouse-over in the picture APP. Is the Form1_Main always repeating in a loop ? If I have it correctly the CheckSideButtons() function is handling the mousover but is only called once in Function Form1_Main.
So this loop is always repeating as the application is active ?

It would appear that Form1_Main is looping automatically. Clearly this is how its designed but Im not sure on how as I would have sworn that sort of thing would be setup via a timer... I will have to look at it further. Remember it was 2007/08 when I last did any work on this.

Leave it with me and I'll have quick look later and get back to you

There is a timer in the project, but I think only used for count part. I was just wondering how the object orientated multitasking part works in symbos. It makes sense that the form1_main is always looping. How is the symbos kernel working I was wondering.

well actually the original would only call events, but I think I added a _Main feature to forms so that when open the _Main routine would be called. Will have to sit and look at the core control z80

Ok.. I'm still trying to get my image-boxes working. Is there a way you can look at my project file ?
Compile is working but after starting the app in symbos, symbos is not responding anymore.
