  • Subs code appears in the quick info windows:



    This code is also selectable and clickable.
  • Show Sub in window:

  • IDE shows available updates:



  • Recommended targetSdkVersion is set to 28.
  • Alpha value of text colors can be set in the designer.
  • Fix for a crash related to B4XView.Color with Android 10 and targetSdkVersion >= 29.
  • Better handling of errors in the IDE.
  • Deprecation warnings for modal Msgbox.
  • Animation to zero size no longer causes an exception in new versions of Android.
  • Starter service subs can be accessed directly without using CallSub.
  • Warning and errors do not hide other information:



  • Copy warnings from list of warnings.

B4A will become free in a couple of weeks, therefore discount offers will not be sent like with previous releases.

Note that B4J v8.10 has also been released with similar improvements.
