Only White Background in exported exe?

Postby Tronic » Thu May 03, 2012 5:35 pm

Ooops .. and now how we solve it?
Having worked in conjunction with another person,
now he has bought some credits and export an exe ..... BAAM!!
The result is that the application exported, has a white background.
No problem, if you do not use it to full screen.
even if you add a background to the whole project,
when in full screen, it always will have a white margin around.
No chance to use a different color or a nice black?

If you want something other than the white, just copy and paste the MGUI primitive and its surrounding modules in the attached file in the lower left. This will give you a GUI background you can edit.

Have you tried to export it as an exe, and activate the full screen mode?
the back of your schematic will be blue or any color you want,
but everything else is white, if you view it in full screen.

I know exactly what you are saying, I usually make my EXE's the exact size for the screen if I want to run it in full screen mode.

You will be pleased to hear that I mentioned this the DSPRobotics a while back and they said that they would make it an option to change the color.

Note: If your app. is in a window (as in most cases) this is already covered by the standard GUI modules.

Unfortunately, the limitations are many, for example,
disable the border of the window of application,
have the application will be reopened in the same place,
or be able to fix the point where it is, and implement support for touch screens.
I hope so for my partner, that all this can be implemented,
then wait .....
hopefully not as has happened with the other product SYNTHMAKER,
that is almost never implemented user requests.

I noticed the same thing when I upgraded to Flowstone 2. With Flowstone 1, the full screen background (outside the GUI area) was black, which happened to work nicely with the projects I was making, so I never gave a second thought to trying to change it. The new white full screen background looks crummy on my projects, so I hope the DSPRobotics folks will add that feature soon.

DSP, how do you adjust the EXE size exactly? I have been using the low tech method of adjusting the schematic zoom to approximately match the screen size, but it would be great to have a more precise way, especially for cases where the screen aspect ratio of the "running" machine is different than the "building" machine.

The way to adjust the size is to just drag the top level module size. This in combination with the zoom gives you the finished size.
