Increasing compile time wait

[FFMan]

I know there is an option somewhere to increase the wait for the compiler to avoid the message 'there are other commands still executing'.

for my larger programs i see this every time, but i can't find the option to extend the timeout,

thanks

There is a configuration setting that you can put in your UserOptions file. See http://www.zbasic.net/forum/about1435.html for more details. What version of the IDE are you using (shown in the Help|About dialog).

[FFMan]

i'm using 1.5.2

is there also a way of turning off the not so helpful word substitution. it has a habit of changing'end select' into 'end selections' and 'dim xx as byte' to 'dim xx as bytes' as well as other similar things. its like its using a natural language dictionary file.

Also, it has a habit of throwing up blank callout/tooltip boxes that stop the cursor keys working until you dismiss them - can this be inhibited too ?

I'm all for helpful IDE's but I'm not sure its always on my side !

thanks don

Does this still occur if you put the following line in your UserProperties file?

Code: Select all

autocompleteword.automatic=0

There is an experimental version of the IDE available via the link below. The synchronization between the build and download phases was changed somewhat in an attempt to mitigate the timeout problem that you mentioned. You might want to give it a try and see if it solves the problem for you.
