If you are merely asking if this has been discussed internally or perhaps on the drawing board, then the answer is "no". In that regard, the likelihood (as best as I can predict at this point in time) is minimal. Perhaps when you can answer the "wh…
-
Colin, I'll have to test this myself to see what is happening. Before I do this, do you think that I need to add 4 panel controls to cause this problem or is that just additional information that is probably not relevant? Also, are you using the Ad…
-
Well, Mark, hopefully my response gives you something to refer to if it happens again. I suppose it is possible that some unexpeted circumstances causes the SRP Editor to stuff a large number into the registry. But it could also happen if the user …
-
Dave, The height is stored in the StatusHeight string located in this Registry path: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\SRP\SRPEditor It probably has a relatively large number. Change it to 86 and open the SRP Editor again.
-
Ariel, No, that is the purpose for the merge feature. The slave cells get hidden (or removed) so the master cell can operate in the space of the slave cells.

Barry, LOL...your email came in just as I sent that last reply. Good deal. I installed and immediately ran your form and clicked on the button. This is what I see:
-
Barry, This is not a trivial amount of work just to show that it works. I would rather not go through the work of developing a working system for this issue as this will set a precedent for other to ask for the same kind of assistant for any contro…
-
Barry, I think trying this on different computers is just a waste of your time. Try simplifying your code even more. For instance, don't set anything for Config<2>, Config<3>, or Config<4>. Only use one line of sample text for Con…
-
Barry, I can't determine what is preventing this from working for you. In cases like these I suggest you do a very simple test. For instance, just create a simple push button on your form and have it call the ShowBalloonTooltip method with hardcode…
-
Barry, What does "refresh" actually mean? Are you referring to the Refresh method? What event handler is now executing your code?
-
Barry, We no longer recommend using the ALL_OLES keyword. In addition to the overhead you incur, we have noticed that OI 9.x systems have unusual performance issues, especially in the area of synchronous events. It is odd because if you qualify eve…
-
Barry, The help for the OnMouseMove event should be updated a bit to make it very clear that it is not functional by default. You need to set the SuppressMouseMoveEvent property to False$. This property is listed at the bottom of the help article b…
-
Barry, After reviewing your code and that you mentioned this is happening within the form's CREATE event handler I am inclined to think you misunderstand how this is intended to work. I get the impression you are treating the ShowBalloonTooltip met…
-
Also, what event handler is calling this method for you? How are you trying to get it to work?
-
Barry, Establishing new content for each cell is not a problem. Windows 10 should not be the problem either (I just tested on my own system to confirm.) Perhaps you could post some code (i.e., more than what we have already seen) for us to review?
-
Barry, OLE.ShowToolTips should have no impact.
-
Colin, What event are you checking this property in? It does work for me in the BeforeUpdate event.
-
Colin, How do you envision the tick/check menu option working? That is, how would the state of the check be preserved for subsequent displays? Would this still send an event with the value of the check and then the developer is responsible for sett…
-
Colin, As you have surmised, this is because the SRP Ribbon control does not force the EditTable to lose focus. When this happens I assume the EditTable still has a cursor in the cell? This is expected and desired behavior. This would be similar t…
-
...so instead of The Trouble with Tribbles you'll have The Problem with Popups. :-P
-
Colin, We've been using the SRP Popup to replace modal and modeless dialogs for a while. Our early uses looked like a glorified tooltip: But later when Microsoft unveiled the Modern (aka Metro) UI we wanted to try and embrace it while at the same…
-
Colin, We'll have a look at this can let you know what to expect ASAP. However, before resorting to a dialog box, why not incorporate the SRP Popup control instead?
-
Ed, Can you post (or send us) your setup code for the SRP EditTable? I have an SRP EditTable with multilined cells and the tooltip displays a multilined tooltip. Also, what are you using as your multiline delimiter? Not sure that this matters but …
-
Mark, The Redraw property does not apply to all changes that can occur in the EditTable control. While this may be unexpected, it is that way out of necessity due to the original design of the control. Whether or not you are discovering the limits …
-
Dan, Using the SRP EditTable within a modal dialog box is a long-standing problem. This is partially due to the tight-loop design of the Dialog_Box function, partially due to the Yield() calls that this function uses, and partially due to inherent …
-
That's pretty funny. It also reminds me of the Marx Brothers: Groucho, Chico, Harpo, Zeppo, and Gummo.
-
Martin, Would you mind making a new post? Your question is a good one, but no one searching the discussion forum would guess that it is appended to the end of an older thread relating to redraw issues. Also, I just have to ask...where does "doco" …
-
Matt, Very nice. I take it that you have tested it and it works?
-
Matt, Thanks for the update. I think that explains a lot, although I am not sure why things changed. Not that I am asking you to do this but I wonder what would happen if you dynamically created the group box controls as well.
-
Mark, I confess, I set this in the Form Designer as well....contrary to company policy. ;-)
