When I apply a Theme, windows can be resized by clicking on the border, even when the window's resizable property is disabled. Any ideas ?

in the first image when I click on the border (painted yellow) it can make the window smaller as seen in image 2. The Resizable property of the window is false.

Here is a testbed application that shows the issue the resizable response windows not working with a theme applied.  We are using PB2021 Build 1288

If you run the test bed app (no theme), select Application Themes and click the response window button in the top right corner it opens a resizable response window.   If you then close that response window and select a theme using the two dropdowns (path and file) and open the resizable response window a second time the resizing no longer works.

Hi Mark,



I downloaded your case. This is not supported at this moment.

A standard response window itself is not capable of resizing. The resizing in your case is actually implemented by using Windows API SetWindowLongW to modify the window class underlayer. When a theme is enabled, PB will always process it according to standard response window features so it’s not resizable. So resizing is not supported in this scenario.



To better improve the adaptability of the UI Theme, I will submit this scenario of yours as a requirement to the development team for analysis.



Regards,

Ken

Hi Marcelo,

Thanks for upload the test case. I tested it in PB 2019 R2 and I can reproduce the issue there, but when I tested in PB 2019 R3 2703, the issue is gone.

I suggest you upgrade to PB 2019 R3 Build 2703 and try again.

Regards,
Ken

Hi Ken,



The problem is that I do not have a PB 2019 R3 license. Can I solve it in 2019 R2 somehow?

If you have 2019 R2 you also have 2019 R3… the license is subscription not tied to a particular version. Based on what Ken said, you need to upgrade if you want this problem fixed.

Hi Ken! Thanks for your answer. I attach an example with the case. The windows windows_a & windows_b inherit from w_basica. When I do not apply any "Theme" the windows are not resized, but when I apply it, they can be redirected by dragging them from the edge. Thank!

Hi Marcelo,

I built Popup Window_a and inherited Window_b (please see attached) based on your description but neither of them reproduced the issue.
Could you provide a reproducible small case for us? Otherwise, we couldn’t further analyze or address the issue.

Regards,
Ken

I have a similar case.
I use a userobject with some script to allow the resize of the userobject.

constant long WS_THICKFRAME = 262144
constant long WS_SYSMENU = 524288

nv_numerical lnv_num
long ll_Styles

tHIS.Border = True

ll_styles = GetWindowLongw (handle (THIS), -16)

if ll_styles <> 0 then
ll_styles = lnv_num.of_BitWiseOr (ll_styles, WS_THICKFRAME)
SetWindowLongW (handle (THIS), -16, ll_styles)
end if

This script allow my userobject to be resizeable.

Without using ApplyTheme everything works, but when I apply it, nothing works anymore.

My case is simple. I have a window windows_a type popup! with a menu, with the Resizabled property disabled. Another window windows_b inherits from windows_a also with the Resizabled property disabled. There is no code that changes this property. Without applying some "Theme" windows_a and windows_b cannot be resized. When I apply a "theme" both can be resized.

Sorry, PB 2019 R2 Build 2353. 

The windows properties are this

When I apply a Theme (Blue for example), the border of the window is drawn in blue and when I click and drag on it the window is resized, which I don't want. This only happens when I apply a theme.

Hi Marcelo，



I created a case according to your screenshot and tested it using PB 2019 R2 & R3 but can’t replicate the issue.

Can you reproduce the issue if you create a new small case? If yes, please send this small case for us so that we could further analyze it.

Hope you can understand.



Regards,

Ken

Hi  Marcelo,

 

We created a similar case according to your description but can’t reproduce the issue.

If you can always replicate the issue on your end, please go to the Appeon Support website to submit a bug (https://www.appeon.com/standardsupport/newbug) along with a small reproducible case for us to further analyze. Thanks in advance.

 

Regards,

Ken
