  • Thanks Kevin. I may know on Monday whether this worked for us as well. I'll let you know.
  • Had sort of forgotten about this one but have now followed it up. The terminal server is 2008 and it has essentially all visual "stuff" turned off. Apparently that's standard practice for a terminal server. The customer is going to see if they can t…
  • Thanks Jared and Kevin. Jared, I've passed your questions on to the customer as I won't be back there till next week to check for myself. I do normally refer to it as RD but use the term TS in this case because that's how the customer refers to it.…
  • :-) Seems to work for me
  • I understand there may have been some distractions; heard something about some conference thingy and some rabbit with excess eggs (I'll assume they're stolen) so I thought I'd just bump this up to ensure it doesn't get lost in chocolate presentation…
  • Am using 3.2 RC12 and it appears that this re-occurs if you minimise the window and then restore it. So the initial load paints correctly, minimise, restore excess real estate at the bottom. Was going to say it wasn't a real issue but then I decide…
  • Sorry Kevin. Threw you a furfy. I didn't have it in front of me when I answered your clarification questions. Turns out, it does occur in the form designer as well, so if I modify it there then at runtime I only have the second scenario, ie only th…
  • OI9.4 Runtime. Form Designer appears ok.
  • Happy to see the inability to resist temptation and curiosity spans across the globe :-) :-)
  • :-D

  • Thanks Kevin. Never hurts to ask. Had a quick play and yes I've got labels. I will need to play some more to determine the best way to utilise them for my needs but looks good so far. One think I did notice and I don't know if this is new or I ju…

  • If you have a use for more than one date field, the tooltip is not user friendly for distinguishing between them and placing them in separate groups so that you can use the group caption as an indicator is kind of overkill. I mean while we're askin…

  • Kudos to Chris Meyer. He's been giving the ribbon a bash and noticed the blank space.
  • Hey Don, No it doesn't. Clicking the button next to the blank space does.
  • No I don't know why it changed
  • Yes I can and will do so shortly. Some additional info in the meantime, I have two windows that I've been testing the ribbon on, each with different xml. Both exhibit the same behaviour. The create event logic is a copy of the logic you posted in …
  • That's the answer right there. Just take Kevin's XML and initialisation code and put it in the create event of a new window. Start the window. Once you see that result. Change the icon pointers in the xml to images you have somewhere and run the wi…
    in MDI? Comment by AusMarkB January 2015
  • Hey Barry, My first use of this is for a new requirement so there will be no before shots. I will still upload some after shots once it's finished if you like. You can check my other thread on redraw issues for a glimpse of how it is looking at the…

  • Don, perha....

  • Found one. :-D
    in MDI? Comment by AusMarkB December 2014
  • Yes and that's probably why I'm struggling to come up with uses for the ribbon other than the MDI. I don't have too many forms that have enough 'states' that warrant a ribbon. Rest assured, I'll find one :-)
    in MDI? Comment by AusMarkB December 2014
  • Thanks Don, Now we're more on the same wavelength. The intent was never to replace tabs on the child forms, simply to use an MDI ribbon to replace the existing menu with the basic concept of tabs for top level menus or modules, groups for 2nd level…
    in MDI? Comment by AusMarkB December 2014
  • Thanks Don. I'm happy to experiment with the look and feel. I was more looking to use the ribbonbar to launch the MDI children and figure they can still live within the client area. Like I said, happy to experiment and I'll include your suggestions…

  • Thanks Kevin
  • :-) You see I was waiting for someone to point out the bleeding obvious to me. No I didn't initially think to re-register it at least not until I read your comment re downloading and registering the same control. Doh! And thank you for the second …
  • So I think I've downloaded the correct pro control now but???? and still no ribbon?
  • 71 items - good 77 items - :-(
  • One more piece of info. That screenshot above had 54 items on the right. When I did the drag to the left, no hang so perhaps the magic number is between 54 and 100 or more likely it's probably not number of items but some other 'size' factor that I …
