![]() Don’t sell something unless you can support it (regression testing each version, alpha and beta testing, updating help files and printed docs, tech support staff, maintenance programmers, …). This doesn’t seem to be understood at RS and it will ultimately be their downfall if it isn’t fixed. It would be nice to see more RS employee’s involvement on the board and see more of an interest being taken in helping users with solving problems, and more than just pointing someone to an example program and telling them just do what this is doing and you have it working in no time, when the two issues are quite different, Tech support takes time and if you make a huge product like XOJO the support of it is going to take significant resources. And I do thank Greg for taking an interest in this issue since most other problems posted here are helped by other users or left unanswered. The current one is getting worse with each release, and Garth if you don’t know what I’m talking about go to your local McDonalds and ask them to explain it … they are smarter than you think. All problems should be addressed within 90 days and the IDE must be fixed or replaced with one the works correctly. I don’t want the desktop systems to go away but they are becoming more and more difficult to use with each release which is just the opposite of how it should be. As a desktop top developer that uses the cross-platform features and is intrigued by iOS I won’t spend $700 EACH YEAR for this kind of support or lack of it. That is where it seems most of the time and effort goes anyway. They don’t meet the standard laid out my either manufacture because of the visual problems, and the workarounds don’t work!!! Please either fix the bugs or drop the desktop components and just concentrate on the Web and iOS stuff. The Movie control still isn’t right, In the true sense XOJO cannot create a true 100% Windows or Mac compatible application. ![]() Groupboxes don’t work right visually in Windows or Mac and have not for years. The problem log goes back for YEARS! To the good folks at RS PLEASE atleast do something about the visual bugs in the UI. I’m not surprised to hear people having success running it Windows 8.1 in 1gb because it is a much more mature operating system (something Garth could learn from).Įach version of XOJO introduces 10 new features, 5 fixes and 20 new bugs. I wouldn’t use it as a development box but I do expect XOJO to meet the manufactures specs. With earlier versions of XOJO it has installed and run, all be it slowly, but it has run without errors. In order to test software for release I need to make sure it runs on each of the platforms I claim it supports, In 2015R2.1 when the installer runs on a Vista box with 2 gb of memory it justs does nothing … no errors, no installation, no Ronald McDonald selling fries, nothing.
