...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. ;-)
-
Matt, I do not believe this is a problem with the SRP EditTable control. I tried to replicate but was unsuccessful. I suspect Mark is getting to the heart of the issue. Z-order (or tab order) can make a difference, especially if you are leap froggi…
-
Colin, That is a pre-release control. We just officially released 3.1.3. It would be very helpful if you could test with that version. It would be newer than 3.2.0 RC9 so it might have fixes your control does not have.
-
Colin, So we can determine if this is a new error introduced with the latest control or a pre-existing error, would you please confirm what version you are using? If this is the latest release, are you able to test with the prior release?
-
Matt, I was able to confer with Kevin this evening. Our original plan was to complete work on a new control which has not formally been revealed before releasing a new version of our controls. However, since this might be delayed due to Kevin's cur…
-
Matt, I am rather confident we can get a new official control released. Kevin is away on assignment so this limits our ability to roll stuff out as quickly as we would like. I will get with him to confirm.
-
Matt, I think you identified the critical issue: hiding the header column. I now see the problem on my end. I have logged this into our issue tracking system as OLE-83. Someone will post back to this thread with an update or resolution.
-
Matt, Sorry for the delay. I was waiting for others on my staff to comment. I have not yet tested this with the separate control. With the Pro control I am not seeing this. However, there may be other particulars with your setup that do not match m…
-
Matt, Are you using a separated SRP EditTable control or the SRP Controls Pro?
-
Kauko, Thank you again for your assistance with this. The RDK you supplied was very helpful. I was able to reproduce the problem and I isolated this down to one line of code. For whatever reason, when you set the control's NEXT property to itself, …
-
Kauko, I appreciate your work on this. Now we have a different dilemma: replicating the problem. As mentioned previously, I have a window similar to yours and I do not see this problem. So we have to figure out how to recreate the problem so we can…
-
Kauko, Thank you for getting back to me and providing me with plenty of screen shots. Here is our dilemma: version 2.2.9 of the SRP EditTable control is too old for us to support. Also, I have a similar form as you and when I run through the same …
-
Kauko, Two questions: * How are you navigating to the other tabs? * What version of the SRP EditTable control are you using?
-
Barry, This is not built into the control. It can be simulated, but it would take a bit or work.
-
Colin, Good hunting. Unless my colleague says otherwise, I would consider this to be a bug, but one that is somewhat understandable. You see, headers are really cells "under the hood" within the SRP EditTable. They just have different behavior and …
-
Colin, Thank you for the screen shot. That is most helpful. However, I don't see this in any of my apps so there must be something unique in the way your cell is configured. Is it possible, as Don Muskopf suggested, that you have the CellMultilined…
-
Colin, Perhaps I am missing something, but I don't see that triangle you are referring to. Can you post a screen shot? Also, what version/theme of Windows are you seeing this in?
-
Colin, Is this behavior you see with all EditTable cells that has a dropdown feature implemented? I am not seeing this but then I am also not seeing the resize triangle either...so I wonder if there is a connection.
-
Mark, This sounds like a good design. As long as the true validation/conversion follows standard protocols then it makes a lot of sense to have useful wrappers that manage the high-level stuff in an automated fashion. We like things as easy as poss…
-
Mark, Your approach toward updating your validation logic is what I was thinking. Am I to infer that your core validation routines are not modeled after a traditional user-defined conversion (UDC) procedure? Thus, these are highly GUI sensitive? I…
