[Gambas-user] Inputbox

[Cogier]

The InputBox problem does seem to relate to which desktop is being used.

With regard to the "Button" problem - I am trying to find out more as if I
create a new program and create "Button1" it all works as expected. It may
be a conversion issue from Gambas 2 to 3.

If I can reliably recreate the problem I will open a new thread.

Thanks again for your help.
