Hi all,

I am trying the new version PB 2022 R3 (RT 3289). When using the themes, I've noticed that the response windows have enlarged right and bottom borders.

When I switch to RT 2828 (R2), everything looks fine. When I turn off the themes, it's also fine.

I suspect it has something to do with a new feature in R3 "Theme resize optimization" mentioned in the New Features list.

But these windows have resizable set to false, there's no need to modify the borders.

See the attached picture for reference.

Regards,

Tomáš

Thanks for the link. But it's not working. Maybe the ticket is set as private?

Anyway, I'll open my own one since we have slight differences between our cases.

Hello,

we have the same issue with PB2022 R3 3289.

When you set the window to resizable = true then the border dissapear.

With resizable = false there is a big frame at the right and bottom side.

We do not use themes. I think this is a bug in R3.

As a workaround we set all our windows to resizable = true and in the open event we called a window open post event which set the window resizable = false. A lot of work for a workaround...

// open window script

POST event ue_post_open_window(this)

 

// ue_post_open_window event

w_window.Resizable = false

 

Hope this will be fixed in the next MR.

regards

Martin.

Hi Martin,

thanks for your info. It's good to know we're not alone dealing with this issue.

However my observations are a bit different. I only have problems with enlarged borders while using themes. Without them it's ok.

Also, I was able to reproduce it in a simple non-MDI application.

Thanks for the workaround. It sure is a lot of work though.

Regards

Tomáš

Hi Tomáš,

 

A bug has been fixed in PB 2022 R3:

https://www.appeon.com/standardsupport/search/view?id=11026

. This symptom should be normal. It’s just that there was a bug in the previous version. You can check the bug description to see if it matches your scenario.

 

Regards,

Kitty

Hi Kitty,

I don't know, but for me, if this is normal and a fixed bug from the previous version (you mean R2?), then I'd rather have that bug. Now I would have to go through all our non-resizable windows and play with the size of the controls. And I can't even rely on how the form looks in the painter, because reality is different.

Hi Tomáš;

  If you have a simple PB App "Test Case" that you can submit that replicates this issue .. then please open a Support Ticket for this anomaly.

Thanks .. Chris

Hi Chris,

I have a small simple Test Case. I can post it, but according to Kitty's post this is how it works in R3. All I can do is disagree. Or should I give it a try and open the ticket?

Hi Tomáš;

Yes, I would suggest opening a Support Ticket for this issue and attaching your test case.. The worst case is that this "might" be a bug as you never know with testing based on all the possible permutations that PB developers could use when resizing for borders. ;-)

Thanks .. Chris
