  • Now does AUI Update() recursively in preview so nested AUI layouts are updated.
  • Moved the resource archive settings to the Resources page.
  • Added "Generate id tag" option to XRC Settings page, to record identifier values. DialogBlocks will also read these values when importing from XRC. (This is a non-standard usage and the tags will be ignored by wxXRC.)

  • Corrected a crash bug when wxStatusBar is a top-level window.
  • Corrected tab traversal in a number of DialogBlocks dialogs, and for property grid.

  • Can also use "image.ext$alias" to use an alias instead of the filename when retrieving a bitmap and inside the GetBitmapResource() function.

  • Added Setup Wizard.

Version 4.0-4.05, March 19th 2007

Main new features for version 4:

  • DialogBlocks is compiled with wxWidgets 2.8.
  • DialogBlocks now uses a property grid to edit element properties instead of regular grid, and divides properties into Basic, Class, Sizer, Size and AUI.
  • DialogBlocks uses AUI for its own layout, so there is more flexibility in arranging windows (but windows cannot yet be undocked). To avoid a conflict with AUI behaviour, DialogBlocks' own docking facility for showing documents in separate windows has been removed.
  • AUI features: any container window, including dialog, frame and panel, can have an AUI manager associated with it. Direct descendants of an AUI manager window have further AUI properties, which control how the panes are added to the manager.
  • Further elements are available: wxAuiNotebook, wxCollapsiblePane, wxFontPicker, wxColourPicker, wxFilePicker, wxDirPicker, wxToolbook, wxTreebook, wxRichTextCtrl, wxHtmlListBox, wxSimpleHtmlListBox, wxComboCtrl, wxOwnerDrawnComboBox, wxBitmapComboBox, wxHyperLinkCtrl and wxMediaCtrl.
  • DialogBlocks can now derive a class for any control. For abstract classes with pure virtual functions, DialogBlocks will generate stubs for these functions. If you add an element that must have a derived class, you will be prompted for the class name and C++ filenames.
  • Added an Element Catalogue to DialogBlocks, as an alternate way to create sizers and windows, using a tree of all elements instead of menus. From this pane you can also choose defaults for common properties such as size, border and alignment, on a per-element basis.
  • Added context menu to multi-document tab area with Close Document command.

Further fixes:

  • Fixed parenting in code generation for wxCollapsiblePanel children.
  • Fixed DialogBlocks toolbar and status bar problems on Mac.
  • Fixed lack of direct entry in bitmap and icon properties.
