This is my third attempt at replying. I'm having some Topica troubles it
seems.

I've tried to stick to the one-base indexing of Euphoria. Set the last
parameter in your call to 1 rather than 0. Other than that, I can't see
what else might be wrong. And certainly don't know why it would cause
5-pixel columns!

That's weird Thomas. I tested it and got no resource leakage. Maybe my
testing process is flawed. How exactly are you seeing the resource
leakage?
As for your fix, yes it worked but I needed a more generic way of doing
it, so I adapted your code to catch all font leaks, now and in the
future. (Or so I thought).

3. RE: win32lib v0.57.4 released
Just a couple of bugs that I found.
1. Buttons3.exw: If you maximize the writing and the buttons are left
over. You can remove this by using repaintWindow(ButtonWindow) at the
end of the resize routine.
2. Clock.exw: When you first open it, the cursor changes to a waiting
icon. It seems to work if you comment out captureMouse(ClockWin) and
releaseMouse().
3. form03.exw: This Error:
C:\Documents and Settings\Elliott\Desktop\NewWin32Lib\form03.exw:5
makeForm has not been declared
makeForm( {
^
4. modpbr3.exw: It says to minimize the window, but you can't.
5. projectiles.exw: It doesn't do anything when you press 'Set Gravity'
or 'Fire!!'.
6. RDmo3a.exw: Can't find print.e, line 140
7. RunDemos.exw: Can't find print.e, line 132
8. sample.exw: Can't find general.ew, line 6
9. special.exw: There is no writing in the box.
10. styles6.exw: Doesn't seem to work like styles.exw.
11. tabcontrol.exw: When you click Shrink Tabs on tab TWO, the group
boxes get cut off.
12. tooltip2.exw: always get error 461, "Failed to Acquire hWnd when
creating a control"
Well, that's it. Ended up being more than a couple I guess. Oh well.

This should not have been included. It was just an experiment.

It doesn't on my system (from memory) so I'll look into this again.

This should not have been included. It is some work-in-progress for the
v0.6x release. I must of accidently moved it from my other WIP folder.
Sorry.

This should not have been included. It was just an experiment. This
might replace RunDemos in future.

This needs the print.e library from the contributions page. Maybe I
should remove this dependency in future.

This probably should not have been included. It was an experiment in
do-it-yourself editboxes. I never bothered finishing it as I got it to a
stage where it proved a specific point I was trying out.

This should not have been included. It has been superceded by styles.exw

Yes I know. That is deliberate. I could deal with this but I didn't
bother. Consider it an exercise for the reader

This says more about my release (mis-)management process than the
library. I'd better clean up my act. Sorry for the inconvenience,
people.

5. RE: win32lib v0.57.4 released
Hi Derek,
I think this is the resource leak Thomas Parslow has been mentioning
about. It is surely a resource leak because it takes some time before it
appears. It says ezCreateFont:save Font failed. I have experienced this
problem since ver 55.5
What i'm doing:
I am simply writing and drawing on a pixmap which i later copyBlt on a
Win32lib Bitmap Control.
this is a sample of the garbage returned after the crash

6. RE: win32lib v0.57.4 released
Ouch! I just got into the office this morning to find many issue reports
on the win32lib library.
First , thanks for all your efforts. It is much appreciated.
Second, it will take time to respond to these as I have to do some
research and analysis on most of them.
Third, keep trying to break it (and maybe offer solutions too!).
Together we can improve this tool.
--------
Derek.
