Hi, everyone.

I made a popup style window to show new message alert on the System tray.

This is good working in PB version 9. (please see the attached image1)

But this has a problem after migration to PB 2019 R3.

The window pop up on the center of screen (not on system tray).

Is there any different property between PB 9.0 and 2019 R3?

I want you to check the window properties I set. (see the attached image2)

Or if you have a sample code of it working well in PB 2019, please send me.

Thank you a lot.

Hi Jeong;

   R3 has a few window handling bugs that could be affecting this behaviour: a) always centers all windows regardless of your code; b) does not allow your code to move the Window's X& Y position initially. I suspect that these issues are hampering your original PB 9 code's execution.

   Engineering has fixes for these issues but they are not released in an MR yet. My suggestion is to open a support ticket so that support can give you an advance copy of the above issue fixes.

Regards ... Chris

Oh, that is one of the bugs of PB 2019.

Ok, I'll try it as your suggestion.



Thank you for your response.

Suggestion: Make the window invisible to begin with, in the ue_open event, position it where you want, then make it visible. It takes an extra fraction of a second to display, but should end up where it needs to be.
