QB64 Discussion / Re: QB64 v1.4 Release Candidate up for testing
« on: February 09, 2020, 07:31:54 am »
There has been such a bug since version 1.3: When I run a program and when it stops, it doesn't always go back to the IDE. There will be a black screen. It is only when I move the mouse cursor down and click on it that the IDE opens.
My OS is Windows 7.  ps. Version 1.2 works fine.
After hard work, I finally solved the problem that caused the "black window" after the "END" or "SYSTEM" command!
 I adjusted my time on Win7 settings until the bug localized to: Control Panel\System and Security\System
 And here: Advanced system settings | Performance | Settings.
 Check the box to "enable desktop layout".

 After the operation, the "black window" no longer appears! ;-)

" SCREEN _NEWIMAGE(640, 480, 32)
_FULLSCREEN

DO
    PRINT " TEST ";
LOOP UNTIL _KEYHIT = 27

'_FULLSCREEN _OFF: SYSTEM
'_SCREENHIDE: SYSTEM
_SCREENICON: SYSTEM "

 The last of the three lines at the end of the program (_SCREENICON: SYSTEM) seems to work every time in my version 1.4!
 Good thing and thank you to everyone who tried to help me! :-)

I'm trying to throw this bug. No success yet. When you print those numeric variables, do you see them?

Yes, of course I see.

Now I try this with my own program...

SCREEN _NEWIMAGE(800, 600, 32)
_FULLSCREEN

DO
    PRINT " TEST ";
LOOP UNTIL _KEYHIT = 27 ' Press ESC

SYSTEM

Works a couple of first times, but then it gets black again!

I’ve tried to replicate the issue but haven’t had any luck with it with my system.  Whatever it is, it seems to be very machine specific.

Yes, in fact, my other PC sometimes thinks something, but pretty soon the black screen disappears and the IDE appears.

Maybe - what is your monitor resolution? If it's 4K, it's possible no one has ever tested it. Or, there's another thing. Some LCD monitors simply do not display other than their resolution. Try to set a valid resolution for the monitor with _NEWIMAGE, then _FULLSCREEN. Whether the problem persists or it resolves the problem.

I tried with many different resolutions that my monitor supports, but the "black screen" does not give up!

"_FULLSCREEN
FOR i = 1 TO 10
    a = a + 1
NEXT i
PRINT a
FOR i = 1 TO 20
    b = b + 1
NEXT i
PRINT b
END"

I tried this 10 times and it always worked as it should, in version 1.2!

Of course, you can work around this by typing:

_FULLSCREEN _OFF: END
or
_FULLSCREEN _OFF: SYSTEM

But you didn't have to do it before! ;-)

It seems that this doesn't always work either!
A small but annoying mistake. :-(

Maybe related to the graphics driver.  Many and I do mean many, video boards lost support when win 10 came out.  And to top it off, video board mfg's stopped support for some lines after Win 7.  So when win 8, 8.1 came out, they said: "If it works o.k., if it don't no support"

That's damn true!
And as it was with XP, even though Win7 support ended, it will be used in the world for years to come.

Does replacing END with SYSTEM make it go away?

"END" or "SYSTEM", both with black screen.

If the program is not in "_FULLSCREEN" mode, it will exit normally.

"_FULLSCREEN
FOR i = 1 TO 10
    a = a + 1
NEXT i
PRINT a
FOR i = 1 TO 20
    b = b + 1
NEXT i
PRINT b
END"
 It does not work! The same black screen when I pressed any key.

 Reinstalling Windows 7 didn't help!
 However, on my older computer with the same windows everything works!
 Could there be a problem with the graphics card?
 But yes there is something wrong with Qb64 too, because in older version 1.2 everything works on my newer PC.
  I also tried the 32-bit version, but the same black screen will appear when the program finishes.
