Subject: Found a way to corrupt Constructor rsrc files :((((((((((((( From: "Flex" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Tue, 30 Sep 2003 10:43:41 +0300
Damn buggy program, 20 days work, over 100 forms and their translation are lost. Hate constructor. The way - if your program becomes big with many forms and you pass the 10 000 ID and SelectDate draws a garbage on screen then you think the solution is to change the forms ID's? Nooooo don't do that! I made it - half of the forms cant even be opened, the others are some mess from controls from different forms and some strange ones that cant
In my experience, you don't need to put form ID's on 100 boundaries, though it is good policy to do so. I was concerned at one time about blowing through the 10000 boundary and successfully set a group of small forms (with 5 to 15 resources) at 25 unit boundaries. If you have 100 forms, some will have a small number of resources and are candidates for this treatment.
However, when you renumber a form you have to manually renumber all of the resources in the form. It looks like you started changing form numbers, but didn't change the ID's of the resources in the form.
