The standard Text Editor and Text Box controls don't have a 'bevel' by default. Isn't the presence of a 'bevel' principally a function of the window style, not what kind of control the window contains: nomainwin WindowHeight = 470 statictext #w.st1, "No Stylebits", 50, 20, 200, 32 stylebi...

if you move the mouse pointer very slowly toward the left edge of the edit window, when it is over the narrow 'bevel' it changes to a right-pointing arrow. If you click the mouse in this position, it selects the whole line. I've never encountered that behavior and it's certainly nothing that I have...

Richard, is it possible to make the left border of the editor window a bit wider, so the right-leaning cursor is easier to position for selecting all of a line with a single click? I'm afraid I have no idea what "the right-leaning cursor" is, nor how to select all of a line with a single ...

USING USB3 port solves problem with all my adapters.......

Why does you I7 laptop perform correctly ,,, is it windows or a driver that is doing the capping? I believe the capping is the driver's reaction to detecting a fake chip. I assume I don't see any capping since my adapter has a genuine Prolific device. I can't think of any other reason why speed cap...

19200 baud still get 220088 ms 220+ seconds this makes little since to me...... On the contrary it makes perfect sense if you assume my theory is correct: that the speed is being deliberately capped to 1000 characters per second. If that's true all rates up to and including 9600 baud will run at th...

Probably, but I still wonder why a driver would impose a speed cap of 1000 characters-per-second, a suspiciously 'round' number. It seems to be deliberate rather than an 'accident'.

what adapter are you using. ???? The same one I used on the laptop: Prolific Rev. D chipset, identical to this . At £20 this is quite a lot more expensive than some of the fakes/clones, although cost is no guarantee of quality. The seller emphasises that it is genuine. The Prolific website contains...

yea give it a shot . My Windows 10 / Intel Core i7 desktop gave the same result as the laptop, near enough. Unfortunately the program won't work at all on my AMD PC because that's running Windows 7 and it won't accept 115200 as a valid baud rate. Have you tried different baud rates to see if the pr...

! is generic FTDI other is CP210x I just got a while back. Clones ???? Some more information here . I could try my program on other PCs (including one with an AMD CPU) if you want, but I only have genuine USB-serial adaptors (some of my applications need functionality like hardware flow-control so ...
