  1. #1

    Default Decimal-Hexadecimal Converter

    I know there's currently already a converter for this on this forum, but here's a new and different one.

    Tool: Decimal-Hexadecimal Converter Version 1.01
    Creator(s): Demonic722 & ScytheOfUmbra
    Special Thanks: dragonboy269 & gbchaosmaster

    Version 1.00 Features:
    • Auto-Checks for illegal characters
    • Clears the whole text box if an illegal character is inputted
    • Instantly converts the current decimal or hexadecimal number
    Version 1.01 Features:
    • Version 1.01 should be slightly faster
    • Auto-Checks for illegal characters
    • Changed the "About" so it looks more organized
    • If an illegal character is typed it doesn't get submitted
    • Instantly converts the current decimal or hexadecimal number
    • Removed the message box that alerted whether or not an illegal character is typed
    • User inputs doesn't get erased/cleared like in Version 1.00 when an illegal character is typed

    Tested. I like yours minus the fact that it can't take negative decimal value input. Also, I noticed some bugs.
    If you highlight a text box (with text already in it of course), and try overwriting it, the word highlights red and doesn't do anything.
    If you want to input more than 7 hexadecimal characters (since the NDS max is 8), you can't.

    Well, yours is an all-round Number Converter. This converter is just for decimal and hexadecimal
    since it was intended to be used for NDS or other console hacking.

    Working on negative decimal input, that little '-' is proving to be pretty difficult to support. O_O
    In progress though.

    The highlighting... yeah, I noticed that. It only happens when the textbox is full and won't take any more letter input. It's because I check to see if any of them are full, and if they are, I deny any characters from being pressed but allow control characters, so you are able to highlight and backspace when it's full. I'll have to see if I can work around it.

    As far as the hex limits go... yeah, that binary box fills up pretty quick. A feature I'm working on is being able to disable the binary box so that you can afford more digits in the other numbers... maybe I'll add a menu for it.

    BTW, try resizing yours. :P

    The '-' wasn't too hard. I used the KeyPress event you spoke of and allowed only numeric characters and '-' for the decimal box.
    Also, I noticed something else. You can input 7 1's, but you can't input 7 of any other numeric characters. It limits those to 6 for some reason.

    Yeah, 6 is the magic number that fills up the binary box, it has to do with converting such high bases (8, 10, and 16) to base-2, the digits add up. It's really just limiting the binary box to 23. Octal is a little lighter on the binary though, you can input 9 one's before binary flips out. Once you're able to disable binary, that will be resolved.
