Dear Mr. Rao,
Thank you. It is working fine.
Font is small, and I think we need also horizontal scrolling.
Do you add this to FW.

Best regards,
Otto

We can provide an option to specify a font.
If you think it would be useful, we can include in FWH after further refining it.
Horizontal scrolling may be not necessary because the text is wrapped to fit the width of the dialog.

Dear Mr. Rao,

I think it would be very useful.
At the same time, we should have a modal box with the same syntax for mod harbor. Maybe MsgInfo in mod is working this way, I test it.

Fwlog would also be great if it were adapted for mod harbour.

And it doesn't quite fit here, but a quick output of ARRAYs in mod harbour like xbrowser () would be helpful.

Best regards,
Otto

Nages,Otto,
is it possible to make a horizontal scroll with obviously small bitmaps (jpg, png) and alternate with text?
In the past I tried to do a small class but then I couldn't

Dear Mr. Rao,
can we have a parameter to tell msginfo that it should be centered in the calling window/dialog or screen?
Thank you in advance
Otto
