Tables

A new "Hide all columns (except first)" option is available in the Tables menu.

STRETCHMIN attribute

STRETCHMIN attribute is supported for grid elements (not for containers). This attribute is taken into account only if STRETCH=X is also defined on the layout or on the widget. This attribute overrides the minimum widget size definition, but the layout must continue to respect alignments.

The following widgets accept the STRETCHMIN attribute: ButtonEdit, Checkbox, ComboBox, DateEdit, DateTimeEdit Edit, Label, ProgressBar, RadioGroup, Slider, SpinEdit, TextEdit, TimeEdit.

For more information, refer to the Genero Business Development Language User Guide.

The MDI icons library has been upgraded to the latest version, which includes more icons. See the icon list available in this version: @mdi/font/6.6.96.

For an example of using MDI icons in GBC, see Change icons.

Note:

Before building the GBC, upgrade your dependencies by running npm install in your GBC project.
