xBrowse display problem on a DIALOG

[anserkk]

Friends,

I am experiencing a strange behavior of xBrowse's display update while using the mouse scroll wheel OR Keyboard down arrow key. If I use the vertical scroll bar on the xBrowse to move down, then the display is OK.

I am experiencing this problem only on a DIALOG. If I change it to a window then this problem is not there.

Any idea where I have went wrong ?


My code

Code: Select all  Expand view

DEFINE DIALOG oDlg ;
      TITLE "Account Heads"

oDlg:nTop:=100     
oDlg:nBottom:=Round(WndMain():nHeight*.80,0)  // 80% of Main Windows Ht
oDlg:nRight:=WndMain():nWidth-20              // 1032 -2 == 1030


@  0, 0 XBROWSE oBrw LINES CELL;
      COLUMNS 'ACCODE','NAME','GRCODE' ;
      SIZE 370,oDlg:nHeight-35 PIXEL ;
      OF oDlg ;
      ALIAS 'AcMaster_ACM'

oBrw:CreateFromCode()
oBrw:nMarqueeStyle := MARQSTYLE_HIGHLROW  // Row Highlite


ACTIVATE DIALOG oDlg ;
   on INIT oBrw:SetFocus()
Return NIL

If I change the above code to a Window instead of Dialog, then it is working fine

Code: Select all  Expand view

DEFINE WINDOW oDlg ;
      TITLE "Account Heads"

oDlg:nTop:=100     
oDlg:nBottom:=Round(WndMain():nHeight*.80,0)  // 80% of Main Windows Ht
oDlg:nRight:=WndMain():nWidth-20              // 1032 -2 == 1030


@  0, 0 XBROWSE oBrw LINES CELL;
      COLUMNS 'ACCODE','NAME','GRCODE' ;
      SIZE 370,oDlg:nHeight-35 PIXEL ;
      OF oDlg ;
      ALIAS 'AcMaster_ACM'

oBrw:CreateFromCode()
oBrw:nMarqueeStyle := MARQSTYLE_HIGHLROW  // Row Highlite


ACTIVATE WINDOW oDlg ;
   on INIT oBrw:SetFocus()
Return NIL

Try to reduce the browse height to fit the dialog.

Change the code for activating dialog as :

Code: Select all  Expand view

   ACTIVATE DIALOG oDlg ;
      on INIT ( oBrw:nHeight := oDlg:nHeight-35, oBrw:SetFocus() )



Do not use Dialog's height before activating the dialog.

Thank you Mr.Nageshwara Rao and Mr.Enrico.

As per your advice, I changed the xBrowse height to a lesser value than the Dialog's height. This solved the problem.

Do not use Dialog's height before activating the dialog.

Dear Mr.Nageshware Rao

Do you mean that I should not try to set the nHeight value of a Dialog before activating it. But if I set the values after activating then I find a flickery on the screen.

Is it OK if I set the dialog height values in "ON INIT"

My code

Code: Select all  Expand view

oDlg:nTop:=100     
oDlg:nBottom:=Round(WndMain():nHeight*.80,0)  // 80% of Main Windows Ht
oDlg:nRight:=WndMain():nWidth-20              // 1032 -2 == 1030

ACTIVATE DIALOG oDlg ;
   on INIT ( oBrw:nHeight := oDlg:nHeight-35,oBrw:SetFocus() )
