Just an update. I changed some of the GUI pages, and the same problem has cropped up, and exactly the same fix - type the problem GUI page TWICE at the command prompt, then RUN the code, and everything works. Different page this time thowing the error, but same font - #10, which does not exist. Also different line number throwing it. Just for everyone's information, and Geoff if he happens to read it.

That should have been fixed in V5.04.06.

What caused this error? (ie, were you changing pages, drawing a button, etc?).

Any other clues?

It is a bigger programm with 1500 lines of code. Most important parts here:

...
CONST HEADER=1,BUTTONS=2,ASSAY=3,RESULTS=4,SETTINGS=5,SETTINGSSUB1=6,SETTINGSSUB2=7,SETTINGSSUB3=8,SETTINGSSUB4=9,SETTINGSSUB5 =10,SETTINGSSUB6=11,REFERENCE=20
...
Sub Button_Pressed
Select Case Touch(REF)
...
Case Button_SettingsSub1
BOX 300,120,150,550,0,RGB(black),RGB(black)
PAGE HEADER,BUTTONS,SETTINGS,SETTINGSSUB1 : GUI DISABLE Button_Settings,Button_SettingsSub1
GUI ENABLE Button_SettingsSub2,Button_SettingsSub3,Button_SettingsSub4,Button_SettingsSub5,Button_SettingsSub6 : CtrlVal(TextStatus)="Settings-G"
Case Button_SettingsSub2
BOX 300,120,150,550,0,RGB(black),RGB(black)
PAGE HEADER,BUTTONS,SETTINGS,SETTINGSSUB2 : GUI DISABLE Button_Settings,Button_SettingsSub2
GUI ENABLE Button_SettingsSub1,Button_SettingsSub3,Button_SettingsSub4,Button_SettingsSub5,Button_SettingsSub6 : CtrlVal(TextStatus)="Settings-X"
Case Button_SettingsSub3
PAGE HEADER,BUTTONS,SETTINGS,SETTINGSSUB3 : GUI DISABLE Button_Settings,Button_SettingsSub3
GUI ENABLE Button_SettingsSub2,Button_SettingsSub1,Button_SettingsSub4,Button_SettingsSub5,Button_SettingsSub6 : CtrlVal(TextStatus)="Settings-B"
Case Button_SettingsSub4
BOX 300,120,150,550,0,RGB(black),RGB(black)
PAGE HEADER,BUTTONS,SETTINGS,SETTINGSSUB4 : GUI DISABLE Button_Settings,Button_SettingsSub4
GUI ENABLE Button_SettingsSub2,Button_SettingsSub3,Button_SettingsSub1,Button_SettingsSub5,Button_SettingsSub6 : CtrlVal(TextStatus)="Settings-E"
Case Button_SettingsSub5
BOX 300,120,150,550,0,RGB(black),RGB(black)
PAGE HEADER,BUTTONS,SETTINGS,SETTINGSSUB5 : GUI DISABLE Button_Settings,Button_SettingsSub5
GUI ENABLE Button_SettingsSub2,Button_SettingsSub3,Button_SettingsSub4,Button_SettingsSub1,Button_SettingsSub6 : CtrlVal(TextStatus)="Settings-C"
Case Button_SettingsSub6
BOX 300,120,150,550,0,RGB(black),RGB(black)
PAGE HEADER,BUTTONS,SETTINGS,SETTINGSSUB6 : GUI DISABLE Button_Settings,Button_SettingsSub6
GUI ENABLE Button_SettingsSub2,Button_SettingsSub3,Button_SettingsSub4,Button_SettingsSub5,Button_SettingsSub1 : CtrlVal(TextStatus)="Settings-L"
...

It stops only when I press the Button_SettingsSub3 with the message
"Error: Invalid font number #8"
at this line

PAGE HEADER,BUTTONS,SETTINGS,SETTINGSSUB3

It does not happen every time. Sometimes it works, sometimes not.
I changed the const from 8 to 31 than I get
"Error: Invalid font number #31"

It never happened on the other buttons with almost similar behaviour. Only in Button_SettingsSub3

Thanks in advance

This is new.

My invalid font messages have stopped since 5.0406 as mentioned above by Geoff.
Has anyone else who WAS seeing those messages, seen them resurface?

I have to correct myself:

I changed the const from 8 to 31 than it worked for this button!

It just does not like the 8.

I changed the code from

CONST HEADER=1,BUTTONS=2,ASSAY=3,RESULTS=4,SETTINGS=5,SETTINGSSUB1=6,SETTINGSSUB2=7,SETTINGSSUB3=8,SETTINGSSUB4=9,SETTINGSSUB5 =10,SETTINGSSUB6=11,REFERENCE=20

CONST HEADER=8,BUTTONS=2,ASSAY=3,RESULTS=4,SETTINGS=5,SETTINGSSUB1=6,SETTINGSSUB2=7,SETTINGSSUB3=1,SETTINGSSUB4=9,SETTINGSSUB5 =10,SETTINGSSUB6=11,REFERENCE=20

than it throws the error at

PAGE HEADER

with "Invalid font number #8"

The error shows up randomly. Sometimes it works, somtimes not.
If I do not use number 8 for a page than everything is fine. Quite strange.

Thanks
Rico

Thanks, the original issue was caused by an array holding details of all controls not being correctly initialised. I thought that I had tracked down all occurrences of
this but perhaps not.

This could take some time to find.

Last week I got same kind of error again but at a different position.

CONST HEADER=1,BUTTONS=2,ASSAY=3,RESULTS=4,SETTINGS=5,SETTINGSSUB1=6,SETTINGSSUB2=7,SETTINGSSUB3=30,SETTINGSSUB4=9,SETTINGSSUB 5=10,SETTINGSSUB6=11,REFERENCE=20

I got the message
"Invalid font number #12"

The trigger for that error was

REFERENCE=20

It was the 12. value that was defined in that row. This might explain invalid font #12 ????
Changing the line to

REFERENCE=21

solved the issue.

CONST HEADER=1,BUTTONS=2,ASSAY=3,RESULTS=4,SETTINGS=5,SETTINGSSUB1=6,SETTINGSSUB2=7,SETTINGSSUB3=30,SETTINGSSUB4=9,SETTINGSSUB 5=10,SETTINGSSUB6=11,REFERENCE=21

I agree.

It is in my bug list but I cannot spot the cause... very frustrating.

This might seem like a stupid question, but is it possible the space between "SETTINGSSUB" AND "5=10" IN "SETTINGSSUB 5=10" is causing issues?

Cheers,

This is a forum issue. I post the original line without a space here but the forum adds the space. Original code has no space.
So I do not think so ;)

Damn. Thought we might have been on to something there......

Have you tried splitting the line into separate CONST's?
i.e.
CONST HEADER=1
CONST BUTTONS=2
CONST ASSAY=3
CONST RESULTS=4
etc. etc......

Or changing them to DIM's?

Like Grogs, the issues I was having with the "Invalid Font" Bug got sorted out way back in the (not so) long, long ago......

GTG!

Latest beta v5.04.10 (Beta 9) does not show the "invalid font" error (related to page number) anymore.

Previous version including v5.04.8 and v5.04.9 still showed it.

Good work ;)

Great!

For a moment, when I saw that this thread had a new post, I was worried that this invalid font issue had resurfaced!

Danke f�r diesen Beitrag. (Thanks for this post)

It has resurfaced again, this time in version 5.0501

[Quote=E100]
(160) CLS
Error: Invalid font number #7
[/Quote]

I cannot get past this point.

Fresh flash of the HEX, configure the screen and touch, load the program code, and when run, this just happens on every single run.

Line 160 is just CLS and nothing else. Font #7 is never defined in the code, nor in the library, so this should NOT be popping up.

EDIT: Image of problem - latest firmware beta did not help, I thought it was worth a try....

Bonjour.

Yes, I thought this bug was squished a few versions back, but I cannot get past this point.
