Hi.

32 bits version for Windows (and also 64 bits version) can be downloaded from my website (https://wxstuff.xaviou.fr/article/codeblocks-nightly-builds.html).
I made both a wxWidgets-3.2.10 and wxWidgets-3.3.2 linked versions

Debian Trixie (64 bits) and Bookworm (32 and 64 bits) can be installed from my repo (https://wxstuff.xaviou.fr/article/debian-repository.html)
The corresponding unsigned deb files can also be downloaded from the website page linked above.

Ubuntu-22.04, 24.04 and 26.04 versions can be installed from my ppa (https://launchpad.net/~x-psoud/+archive/ubuntu/cbnb) (they are available for both amd64 and arm64 architectures).

Regards
Xav'

Hi, I just updated from SVN 13620 (skipping a lot of intermediate NBs since they had bugs which are apparently fixed in 13916) -- so I can't say for sure at which stage the change I am talking about was introduced...
Well, all tabs in main window now look ugly ! They are using a different font and have a blue line on top... the previous ones looked much better.
I wonder if this unrequired change was intentional and why, and whether there is any option in the Preference to revert to the previous look. Thanks

Oh, in addition, now the lower section (logs & others) has a fixed min height and can't be made smaller... This too is a choice I really don't like :(

The blue line over the tabs is a wx3.3 "feature".

Gosh ! You really mean "anti-feature" ! As you may have understood, it's not just about the blue line, but they look ugly in general if compared with the previous ones ! Even WX developers are uniforming to those ugly w10+ standards ??? Really CB coders have no control over it, maybe with some attributes ? That's crazy !!
