Fantastic Brett and the team, how's that for confidence
hav'nt even installed it yet

Suggestion:

For...

Application.GetPageScript()

and...

Application.SetPageScript()

... with regards to the EvenName property. I believe it would fit AMS's internal coding guidelines to have each Event listed in that dropdown dialog. Seeing how there is a finite amount that is always known. Plus that would speed up and make for less typing our/in our projects.

TIA either way.

Thanks for the updates in general.

I-Man ..so scripting pane-s 'load time' and 'build delays' ..performance issues-- appear fixed at your end ?

the 'paging file' at my end no longer seems to 'grow' in size when AMS 6.0.2.0 is running
for a period of time and 'memory usage' monitoring appears to remain 'stable'.
so is lookin good so far at this end re performance fixes in general, Dev Team

I'm still seeing the slow performance, first thing I checked. But, I will research more with some other programs shutdown tomorrow.

We definitely nailed down a few memory leak issues. This version should run at a pretty stable virtual memory level for the most part.

Thanks for the bug fixes.....

optimise resources and output folder for 'renamed resource files' builds
are now squeaky clean

Yup this was pretty solid update. Lots of memory/performance issues have been solved. Darryl hammered most of these bugs so he gets 3 golden thumbs from me

I just did a side-by-side comparison with AMS 5 Pro and AMS 6 (running now on my laptop - Windows XP SP2 - 768MB RAM ATI Mobile 9000 video adapter).

And...

I found that AMS 5 Pro loads the Scripting area of the On Show event in a 1/2 second; whereas, AMS 6 loads the same area and event section in about 3 seconds, which is about 6 times slower. (1/2 second compared to 3 seconds).

These are findings I have done and your mileage folks may differ. This does not impact code execution that I can tell (AMS 6 .exes seem to load and run as well or better than AMS 5 Pro, seems).

So, it's just something in the IDE I am finding and can live with. I just like instant load of pages. I am impatient when it comes to "clicks and pushes".

I wish I had more concrete information to share so as to help correct this situation, alas that is not possible at this point in time. I'll keep my eye out for anything that may help though.

Thanks for the update!

One thing though.. for some reason everytime I run AMS now, I get the popup about the menu bar changing, and if I want to ditch my custom one. I never remember customizing it to begin with, but no matter which option I choose it asks me everytime I run AMS.

Its not that you'll lose anything, its more that you'll be gaining whatever wasn't previously in the menus. This happens when you install new plugins etc too.

Yea, I'm not worried about losing anything. Its just that the popup comes up everytime I start AMS. Its not a problem really, just more of a slight annoyance.

Even if you answer "Okay" or "Yes" (whatever the left hand button is)?

Yeah, Ive clicked Yes most of the times. Only tried No once or twice to see if it would get rid of the message. Its probably just something messed up on this pc.. Ill add it to the list of problems
