Nightly builds / Re: The 27 May 2026 build (13855) is out.

« Last post by gd_on on June 04, 2026, 11:30:15 am »

You can use C:B in darkmode. At least 2 ways to obtain this :

• Use darkmode for Windows: C::B will follow Windows mode
• Use a small cmd file to force darkmode: This cmd file is something like:
  

Code

REM To force darkmode (if 0 standard color mode, if 1 follow system mode)
set WX_MSW_DARK_MODE=2
codeblocks.exe

Then you can adjust different colors.
In this example, this codeblocks_DarkMode.cmd file is placed where codeblocks.exe is installed.

I lookfor a setings to get the dark mode using this nightly and Windows 11 25H2. It seems there is no such an option. So can you confirm that dark mode is not supported in Windows 11? Is it possible to enable the dark mode in Windows11? Is a long waited feature....

Today, I try to download this last nightly of CB into WSL2 (Ubuntu 24.04) using Firefox browser (just my choice ...    )

BitDefender AV don't control this 7z archive (YES !), by default stored on "$HOME/Downloads".

Into terminal Ubuntu 24.04, I use command "7z" to extract directly to "/mnt/c/CodeBlocks", ... and BD AV detect like previous downloads an malware, and, like Eckart, link to file "CB_soncole_runner.exe" just decompressed ...

I force BD AV to restore this specific file. 

After that, I run CB (after decompress also two dependencies files with MinGW64 and WX DLL), and result is OK.

I don't know why, CB has been very long time to start ... but (be patient) ..., after I can use last nightly of CB normally.

Story is closed !

Thank's.

Help / Re: Used .deb files to install Codeblocks

« Last post by mac48601 on June 03, 2026, 04:18:49 pm »

This worked for me using bash. The graphical install never worked. This will install code:blocks 25.03 rev 13644

sudo apt update
sudo apt install codeblocks codeblocks-contrib
sudo apt install build-essentials gdb
codeblocks

select the GNUGCC Compiler and set it as default.

Try deleting all the .layout files to see if that fixes the problem.

No. It doesn't work. So the only solution is to re-customize everything. Very boring and time consuming. Am I the only one with this issue?

You can change the colors using Environment Settings, Select Colours Image or Icon, Below is a comBoBox that say select application appearance if(supported by platform) and you can change the combobox to 3 options system default, Light , Dark theme.

There is no Environment Settings, Select Colours Image or Icon. I'm using Windows 11 25H2. So dark mode is not supported in Windows 11?

Using Code::Blocks / Re: New project templates missing/empty

« Last post by Kayn on June 02, 2026, 04:56:09 pm »

Thanks. That seems to have soled the issue.

It's a shame that there is no hint about this anywhere to be found In times when plugins often break crashing the whole app user tend to disable many plugins. It would be very helpful to get warned about the consequences about this kind of plugin-disabling...

Another questions (off topic):
How to properly upload and link/reference images/screen shots inside a post? I kind of managed to do so and the image is being shown when I'm logged in but the image is not being shown to a random not logged in forum user. Wtf?

How to improve the captcha? I'm having big trouble identifying the letters in the captcha to the point where the forum becomes almost unusable to me. The "listen to letters" function seems broken as well. So submitting a post to the forum needs several attempts (8 or so) and is very annoying.
This really needs to change.

Using Code::Blocks / Re: New project templates missing/empty

« Last post by Miguel Gimenez on June 01, 2026, 03:23:35 pm »

The templates are added by the Scripted Wizard plugin, have you enabled it? (it should be enabled by default).

You can see which plugins are enabled in Help/About/Plugins or Plugins/Manage plugins...

Using Code::Blocks / New project templates missing/empty

« Last post by Kayn on June 01, 2026, 01:29:36 pm »

Hi,

when I try to create a new project, I find the project template to be empty.


No project templates to choose from at all.


What would be a good strategy to find the cause of this issue?

My System is manjaro and endavourOS, both arch based.
Release is:
Release 25.03 rev 13644 (2025-03-29 05:36:19) gcc 15.1.1 Linux/unicode - 64 bit

Thanks Eckhart,

Today, I retry to download and diagnostic is same but Trojan detected not () (in file join).

I will try download nightly CB on Linux first (on my laptop with double boot), I will try to decompress always on Linux (partition NTFS with access "write"), and after reboot on W11 2H2 to see result.

Regards.
