<Ubuntu 7.04>

When I opened project-->properties window, it was too large to see
the bottem. And I could not resize it, too. I have tried to change the
screen setting bigger than 1024x768, but the video chip can't afford.


The same seems to be true for the Compiler/debugger properties (settings) window. And it has been this way for a long time :(

It probably will be for a while, too. See, the problem is that all those dialogs were created incrementally, as features were added over the months. Not everything was planned bottom up, and people tried to fix something here and there, as good as they could.

I am not happy with the entire set of project dialogs either. However, really addressing the dialog problems would mean some serious work, including some serious changes to considerable code.
This is out of our scope at the time being. Reordering elements so they fit some particular resolution is problematic too, attempts have been made in the past, but while they made things better for a few people, they made them worse for many.

What we need to do is redesign them bottom-up, one day... just... not today :(

I would suggest trying this patch to see if it helps.

Patch 2139 "Remove include of wx/wx.h from configmanager.h"
https://developer.berlios.de/patch/?func=detailpatch&patch_id=2139&group_id=5358
Note: The patch now contains only things needed to get an windows build without precompiled headers to work.
(The removal of the include of wx/wx.h from configmanager.h has already been done in SVN.)

To pick up the header problem once again: Remembering from memory the includes inserted by your patch are roughly the same I inserted to get the sources to compile. I will try the patch as soon as I can get to my Linux machine.

Thanks,
Oliver

Just try svn head, my patch was applied to svn already.

Code::Blocks doesn't find my header files.
I've installed the Nightly, and use MinGW for Compiler. When I want to build an project, CB gets all the Header files, but when there are Header files included it won't find those, but they are in the same directory.

For example there is OIS.h and OISMouse.h, both are in ./include/ois/ OIS.h icludes OISMouse.h but Code::BLocks can't find this one.

Then I wanted to compile CB from SVN, I did it the way discribed there (unicode): http://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php?title=Installing_Code::Blocks_from_source_on_Windows

Everything worked, but with the SVN-Version it doesn't work, either. :(

edit:
I've tried some other Nightlys now, but all of them produce the same errors.
