Re: Problem with the start of the compiler in FC8 and new functions grup etc.

Hello Xelites,

I can confirm that this unfortunate bug has been fixed. The next release of Flowcode (8.1, due for release later this week) will contain the fix.

Thanks,

Daniel

Re: Missing pic8 compiler file

Hi kramtlas, I'm glad that you have your compiler issue resolved. Just to confirm, the image of your compiler settings with "$(appdir)" is now what you have it set to, and your compilers are now located in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Flowcode v8\compilers"? Did you move these yourself? Because it seems ...

Re: Missing pic8 compiler file

Hi Kramtlas, I'm still trying to replicate this issue to prevent this being a problem in future. Are you still experiencing this issue? Would you be able to answer the following for me to help me diagnose? What were the results of the sequence of steps in my previous post (prior to reinstallation)? ...

Re: Missing pic8 compiler file

Hi kramtlas, My sincerest apologies for the delay with this response. The issue has me at a loss, due to the fact that the errors do not seem consistent. (The first suggested that Flowcode could access the correct registry entry, but the second suggested the opposite!) The fact that it is clear that...

Re: STARM Compiler Error with FC8

Please see these notes regarding the GetShortPathName problem. https://www.matrixtsl.com/faq/index.php?action=artikel&cat=1&id=69&artlang=en It is worth noting that you may not need to reinstall/copy the directories for Flowcode or the compilers. I recommend first just attempting to change the regi...

Re: Missing pic8 compiler file

Hi kramtlas, Sorry for the problems you're experiencing. The error in your first post seems to indicate that Flowcode knows the location of the compiler, but is having an issue launching it. The error in your latest post suggests that Flowcode now does not even know the location of the compiler. So ...

Re: Grouping 'problem'

Hi Martin,

Apart from the zoom bug, and the icon offset bug, (which I am still working on) I've implemented fixes for all of the problems you have mentioned. They will definitely be in the next release.

Re: so many problems .

Do you happen to have antivirus like BitDefender, F-Secure or ZoneAlarm? Can you try disabling it for a short time to test out ? This is a very good idea. I tend to forget that antivirus software can still cause problems even in 2018. I would also suggest, in addition to turning off any antivirus s...

Re: so many problems .

Based on the compiler output you have pasted, the compiler batch file is being invoked correctly. The issue is that for some reason the batch file cannot find the actual compiler executable. Could you please check that "C:\Flowcode\Common\Compilers\pic16\bin\xc16-gcc.exe" is present on your system? ...

Re: so many problems .

Hi Steve,

I am still investigating. What is the full path/location of the project file that you are trying to compile? (assuming that the path name does not contain any sensitive information and you don't mind sharing it)

Thanks,

Re: Grouping 'problem'

Martin,

Thanks for the screenshot. It's helped me to understand what you meant a bit better.

But I'm still struggling to reproduce it! I've made a note and I'll keep investigating and hope to get it resolved by the next minor release.

Thanks for your help.

Hi Martin,

Thanks for your feedback. The detailed description can be shown to the right of the group by right-clicking the icon, then selecting Annotations -> Comments.

Regarding the visual offset bug, I can't seem to replicate this on my PC. I'll investigate further.

Thanks,

This appears to occur whenever all of your non-Start-page tabs are detached.

Re: Flowcode Opening Issues.

Roy, I am surprised that the relevant location in ProgramData is empty. Flowcode 8 checks for this folder (creating it if necessary) prior to loading the flowchart. If you successfully loaded Flowcode 8 at any point, then this folder must have been created. This suggests that something (perhaps anot...

Re: Flowcode Opening Issues.

Roy, This is a very strange issue indeed. Flowcode remaining in task manager should not affect the starting of a new instance, as it is in fact possible to run multiple instances of Flowcode at a time. It is worth noting that sometimes after you "close" Flowcode, the process remains in task manager ...
