I have an app with FTC 3.2.1 that works.
When I try to recompile the project, I get an error related to FTParagraph.Alignment_Type. “Alginment_Type” is an enum.
However, I don’t understand the cause of the error or how to fix it. Can anyone give me some advice?
Same problem here - workaround: using Xojo 2025R1.1
Looks like something changed in Xojo between R1.1 and R2.1 which broke this part…
Could be related to this RN from 2025r2:
Structures with invalid fields no longer causes the compiler to crash or trigger an assertion. We now raise a compile error and highlight the problematic structure field. (78844)
If a field of type ENUM in a structure is invalid, then I will probably have to revise the FTC for this structure.
That doesn’t sound too good at first.
I’ll have to take a closer look at that.
Is “Size ?” really legal for a Structure that’s supposed to be well defined?
I don’t think so. I’m just wondering about this error in the structure.
I just want to use the FTC and not change it if possible. I guess I have no choice but to adjust it.
I can’t find a difference.
Unfortunately, as BKS parted ways I no longer have access to a FTC license (and I believe someone else owns it now). I’m afraid I can’t help in any other ways at this point. My suspicion is that structure is indeed wrong, but you’ll need a reference for what it’s supposed to look like to fix it.
Perhaps you need to get in touch with the new owner of FTC?
I think Xojo have introduced a compiler bug when using an Enum in a structure. It appears to be related to the structure specifying Enum as Module.Enum.
The sample project I have attached compiles with Xojo 2017r3 but does not compile with Xojo 2025r2.1. I don’t get the same error as you so there might be more than one bug.

Blerp, I apparently forgot it was open sourced 
I think there’s a bigger issue at hand though, found thanks to people more smart than me!
I got the information this has been fixed for the next Xojo version.
