Hello,

 

Im using a UserObject to make a window top menu, with some pictures that represents the buttons. When the user clicks one option I need to put a border on it and if he click's it again, I need to take this border off. That's easy, but when trying to get the border off I get black border that looks like StyleShadowBox but it's not. Im using PB 2019 R2 and the "buttons" are picture objects.

 

Im let code down below it's pretty simple code but still not working as I want.

 

To activate the border:

To deactivate the border:

The border doing weird stuff:

 

*I tried with and without SetRedraw.

 

Thanks greetings.

Greetings, Pau -

I suggest you try managing redraw for the container, uo_menu, perhaps in addition to managing redraw for the particular picture control.

this.uo_menu.SetRedraw(False)
this.uo_menu.p_5.SetRedraw(False)
this.uo_menu.p_5.Border=True
this.uo_menu.p_5.SetRedraw(True)
this.uo_menu.SetRedraw(True)

Regards, John

In the HELP file, under...

      Menu object
      Prev  System Object Properties, Events, and Functions

... there is no property called "Border". If you want a shadowbox border, you will need to simulate that border using predefined rectangle objects that you can make visible, place , and size when the menu is created.


Good Luck,

Olan

I've tried with a picture object (a bit bigger than yours) on a userobject on a window and cannot reproduce your problem with 2019 R2.

regards.

I've added my testcase so you see what I did.

Just click on the button on the main window repeatedly.

Hi Pau;

  Nice looking UO riobbon / toolbar!

  I wonder if the BorderStyle property is being reset somehow to a "StyleShadowBox!" by the PBVM when SetReDraw() is used.

   Have you tried resetting the BorderStyle property in your scripts after the SetReDraw(True)?

Regards ...Chris

Hi Chris,

Im sorry for the delay of my reply, I been busy this days. I already tried with and without SetRedraw, on the parent object and on the buttons, I did debug and no border style have changed and the border property still on false. I think it's a PowerBuilder bugg maybe.
