Hi Master,

   I noticed there are different between launching the application thru URL vs start menu.

When i use URL to launch my application, the login screen is not focus on the user id box, i have to click on it, then only can enter application user id and then password to logon.

When i launch my application thru Start menu, it automatically focus on the login screen, where user do not need to click on the user id box to enter user id then password to logon.

May i know if there is any settings that i can do to make sure the logon box(user id) is automatically focus and user just type the user id only, do not need to point to the user id first.

 

Thank you.

Hi Sim & Tomas,

According to the reproduction steps provided by Tomas, I was able to replicate the issue in version 1900. A similar problem was previously reported by a customer: https://www.appeon.com/standardsupport/search/view?id=10513.
But currently, this issue has not been fully resolved. I will intensify my follow-up on the handling of this matter and will promptly update the progress of the issue. Your understanding is appreciated.


Best Regards,
Mora

Hi

is there an open ticket with this issue?

The problem is with Powerclient in PB2022 build 1900. 1892 works well.

The issue:

At the end of the starting process a different (randomly selected) window gets focus. Because of this and because how Windows works the application can never get focus back. I think this is a bug in 1900.

 

Tested on:

W10

W11

 

Reproduction steps:

1. Create a single application with a messagebox in Application Open event.

2. Create a Powerclient project

3. Deploy the project to a remote server

4. Run the app from the url ( http://server/app ) from "Run" (Win+R) menu

 

What will happen:

Powerclient deploymet has focus

At the end of the updating process a different window is getting focus. The messagebox is on the top but you can't close it by pressing Enter or space bar.

Hi,

do you have a workaround?

I tried Messagebox(null,null) and SetForegroundWindow API call but with no success.

PB2022 build 1900, PowerClient opened through a desktop shortcut.

Hi Sim,

Could you verify it in PowerServer 2022 R2? It appears to work as expected in the latest version.

Regards, Logan

Hi Logan;

Correct .. there was a ticket & fix for that in 2022 that should now work OK in the latest build of PB 2022 R2. :-)
