I don't know, if something was changed at the StringGadget and its #PB_String_PlaceHolder functionality?
Please have a look at the following example from the help with an added Placeholder gadget at the bottom (because it is missing) and try to click and type inside.
Code: Select all
; Shows possible flags of StringGadget in action...
If OpenWindow(0, 0, 0, 322, 245, "StringGadget Flags", #PB_Window_SystemMenu | #PB_Window_ScreenCentered)
StringGadget(0, 8, 10, 306, 20, "Normal StringGadget...")
StringGadget(1, 8, 35, 306, 20, "1234567", #PB_String_Numeric)
StringGadget(2, 8, 60, 306, 20, "Read-only StringGadget", #PB_String_ReadOnly)
StringGadget(3, 8, 85, 306, 20, "lowercase...", #PB_String_LowerCase)
StringGadget(4, 8, 110, 306, 20, "uppercase...", #PB_String_UpperCase)
StringGadget(5, 8, 140, 306, 20, "Borderless StringGadget", #PB_String_BorderLess)
StringGadget(6, 8, 170, 306, 20, "Password", #PB_String_Password)
StringGadget(7, 8, 200, 306, 20, "Placeholder", #PB_String_PlaceHolder)
EndIf
And by the way, the #PB_String_PlaceHolder is not listed in the preview of the IDE when starting to type #PB_String...
