Hello, we migrated our application to PB 2017 in late July, and we were not aware of the change related to Rich Text / RTE. We only have a couple places in our App that use RTE, but they are pretty important. We have recently found out about the change to the new RTE control when we had to research very weird behavior on a window with RTE. The window loads very slowly (compared to before), and it is not painting (i.e. rendering) properly. If we remove the TER24.dll, the weirdness goes away; the window paints quickly and properly, but, of course, the RTE control does not work.
Apparently, we can revert to using the prior RTE control by purchasing separate licensing. But why should I have to do that? Why wasn't our prior RTE usage grandfathered somehow?
We're using PB 2017 Standard, build 1666. We build in P-code 32-bit. We're on the brink of a product release in October, which now we may have to delay.
Any suggestions? Work-arounds? Potential solutions?
Dissatisfied,
Mark Hulser
