Code::Blocks 20.03 crashes on Windows 10
« on: May 04, 2020, 07:38:44 pm »
Hello everyone!

Today I installed Code::Blocks 20.03 on my PC with Windows 10 Home. A bug with the taskbar was immediately noticed, where the Code::Blocks icon flickers at startup. It is also impossible to change the font in the editor (I like the font Ubuntu Mono much more). Also, I can’t succeed in attaching the library header file (pre-compiled binaries of GLFW) to the project, although I did everything according to the manuals, although they relate to older versions of the program. Where can I write a detailed bug report? And if there is a solution to at least one of my problems - please help. Thanks in advance.

P.S.: Sorry for bad English!

Icon flickering is a known issue, it is fixed in trunk (see nightlies), but not in the release.
The font problem is due to a wxWidgets bug related to floating point.

@Gnomoron:
https://sourceforge.net/p/codeblocks/tickets/ but make sure to report 1 issue per ticket and also to search before posting a ticket.
If I understand your post you've managed to report at least 4 issues.

And you've mentioned crash in the topic title, but there is no description of the crash, I guess this happens when you dismiss the assert dialog for the font problem.
(most of the time I ignore long posts)
[strangers don't send me private messages, I'll ignore them; post a topic in the forum, but first read the rules!]

Yes, you're right.
