I compiled with oldest C5cNew.prg and run ok also with Win Xp
Someone has modified something on new C5cnew.prg of fwh16.02 I not Know wich!!
SystemMetrics WIN XP is different more win Seven ?
and
why on fwh15.01 run ok ?
it is very strange !!PAtience.
For resolve my problem on WInXP if I wish use fwh last version
I must declare FONT TYpe for each control DEFINE TITLE when the app is on xp
when it is on seven I not have problem
Crisobal for the question of toutlok class
I use TFSDI+VTASKBAR+XBROWSE+TAB NOT MDI MAIN WINDOW (search fsdi2006)
perhaps because I tried many solutions and all not run ok
I lose much time on past years to found a good solution
for a sample :
the Toutlook class and the explorerbar class have problem with dialog NOT 4 STYLE .... it run good on windows class
it make easy ERROR DEF CONTROL if I try to insert it on a dialog or crash
the explorer class use urllink class to create items instead of a menu and I cannot change the type (see vitem)
I tried these classes many times and I not found a good solution
From 5 year I use TFSDI+VTASKBAR+XBROWSE+TAB with not problems until now ( only for xp)
on PICTURE you can see a MainWindow with toolbar( rebar)
at centre there is a dialog NOT 4 style with Vtaskbar at left, a splitter, a xbrowse at right and a tab control ( old style) to bottom
all are resize when the user resize the main window
thanks a lot
