A few things with 1.6
-
@omz , some things I have noticed,
-
Unless 1.6 works differently with flex at runtime, there seems to be a problem. I am setting a scrollview's flex to 'WH' in code. What worked in 1.5, does not work now. I had to set the frame explicitly. I tried a few things to get flex working, but it did not work.
-
I cannot see a place to change the console font. Not sure if I can't find it or you have not got around to it yet.
-
I love the new flexibility of defining the screen size, but bounds and frame attr a lot more important to understand now. I stumbled through before and it worked, a lot less forgiving now. My virtual list that ran fine under 1.5, needed tweaking around these issues. Not bad, just going to be a migration transition for some people like me :)

Setting the
flex
attribute of a top-level view (i.e. one that you callpresent()
on) doesn't have any effect, and it never had. The size of a view that is presented in 'sheet' style used to be fixed in 1.5 (regardless of what you set as flex, it would be something around 540x500), and in 1.6, it reflects the size of the view's frame/bounds.I'm aware that this may require minor code changes in some cases, but I don't see any way around that, without giving up the flexibility of having differently-sized sheets, which I find very useful.

Didn't get to that yet. If you want a bigger font, you can use
console.set_font
for now:console.set_font('Menlo', 20)
