Thanks, I looks like there is some regression with double-clicling in Requsters. Added to TODO.

I took a look at BackupCopy and the problem is that it creates an AppIcon. This is currently not supported in the
emulator. Please check if you remove creation of AppIcon whether other functions will work as designed.
Many thanks for the information - I'll give that a try.
Cheers,
Nigel.
Edit: I though the AppIcon bit was strange, I didn't remember setting one up and on checking through found not only is it not in the code but there isn't actually a way to make an Amiga AppIcon in Hollywood. You can set something called an AppIcon but its supposed to be one for AmigaOS4 docky or the Windows start bar. As mentioned, in any case I was not setting one.
However, the program was compiled years ago, many versions of Hollywood previously, and on re-compilation it at least puts out an error. Please aee attached plus the recompiled version.

Bit of a regression with SimpleWhitebord and 0.48 I'm afraid - it's lost the toolbar buttons when they are disabled o first start up (please see attacheched). They do re-appear once enabled (draw window opened) though, so I guess a minor thing.
Cheers,
Nigel.

For BackupCopy_B: it's still the same problem with AppIcon I'm affraid. It actually creates and AppIcon on 32-bit (see screenshot). Maybe it's because you are not opening "a main window"? Like I said, this is the only Hollywood program I found to be doing so. If you can't find a way to disable this, I may be able to do a workaround, but it will be a nasty one.
For SimpleWhiteboard: see screenshot, that's how it look to me on my current development version (0.50)

2 days agodeadwood, thank you, now the saves work with ‘Anim Web Converter’ and ‘AnimPlayer’. A few minor clarifications:
- AnimPlayer can save animations from ‘Anim’, 'Fli', 'Flc', 'Yafa' to 'Gif' animations, but please note that the save must be done before running the animation, otherwise it will not work. This also happens on AROS 32bit.
- ‘Anim Web Converter’ can save animations in ‘.Anim’ to ‘GIF’, ‘PNG’, ‘PNG’ and 'AVI' formats, but there is a small problem with the file name request. As you can see from the screenshot (first image), the text ‘Enter a new name, please’ is missing.
To save the images, as already mentioned in another post, you will find the registration key in the AROS One ‘Registration’ folder.

Ok I'm glad that's solved. With regarads to missing text and buttons on the requester, I added this to my TODO.
@ntromans
Next version should have partially-working custom screens.

1 day agodeadwood i would like to point out that file dragging does not work on the GUI with Hollywood applications.
Regarding Iconeditor, as mentioned above, the Zune libraries are searched for in LIBS (I assume the 64-bit system one).
To make it work, I tried to modify LIBS with LIBX and assign LIBX to the Iconeditor path. The only problem is that I have a Guru exiting the programme.
File dragging will not be supported for now.
With regards to Iconeditor, please provided exact link the software you are using or a zipped version. The version that I have bails out on not finding rapagui.hwp even though it is there and found by other Hollywood programs.

23 hours agoDeadwood, you used the older version 1.9 found on the aros archive. rapagui.hwp cannot be found because v1.9 requires an older version. With version ‘rapagui.hwp v1.2’ it works fine, but it also requires the ‘polybios.hwp’ plug-in.
I am attaching my newest version of IconEditor v2.0 installed on 32Bit. This version works with your version of rapagui.hwp and does not need the ‘polybios.hwp’ plug-in, as it is probably compiled into the executable.
You can also install two different versions of the plug-in on Hollywood programmes. Priority is given to the plug-in included in the programme folder.

New build v0.60:
https://axrt.org/development/EmuV0/EmuV0-0.60.x86_64-aros-v11.zip
This build changes the way how unimplemented code paths are handled. Instead of hard crash or system freeze, in most cases you will now see an alert as shown below and will be able to Suspend the emulated program. Freezes can still happen due to bugs of course.
When reporting errors from now on, please be sure to include screenshots of these alerts

@AMIGASYSTEM
When trying your build of IconEditor I'm now getting a requester for TBImage volume and then the following error (see attached). Is there something else I need on a clean system to use IconEditor?

20 hours agodeadwood, that error should be a request for Toolbar images.
On AROS, but also on Amiga, some programmes search for and use Toolbar images in the Classes/ToolbarImages/ path.
There is a package on Aminet that includes these images (AISS), but there are hundreds of them. On AROS One 32/64, I have collected only those necessary for AROS applications. I am attaching the folder.
However, for it to work, you must assign this path. Usually, on AROS and Amiga, you do an assign in User-Startup, like this:
Assign TBImages: SYS:Classes/ToolbarImages/Default
Assign TBImages: SYS:Classes/ToolbarImages/Contrib ADD
In the first image, the toolbar icons do not appear to be “hidden due to some compatibility issue”, but they are there, as you can see in the second image!

I assume Hollywood has an gui where you develop stuff and a command line compiler. Have you tried if the command line compiler works with EmuV0? If not, what kind of error are you getting?
Updated to 0.60.
I've tried the command-line version of the Hollywood compiler. Whilst it does work to give the usage taplate, if you try to execute a script it crashes - please see attached.
Cheers,
Nigel.
P.S. I'm still not seeing the disabled toolbar images for SimpleWhiteboard, I guess a difference between hosted and native. However, as mentioned this really is not very vital as the enabled icons appear fine once a draw winow is opened.
