Hi,

not that important for now, but wonder if anybody else encountered the same.

Have a simple window with two tables divided by a horizontal splitter. When

moving the splitter up and down, each table increases/decreases its height.

Now the magic: it does this on all pc's and notebooks I ever installed the app.

Just on my notebook (DELL Inspiron 6400 with 15' high resolution screen (1680*1024) the upper table changes height, but the lower table keeps it's

constant as it was at creation time, leaving a gap or overlapping both tables

dependant on the splitter position .

Any hints welcome

Hi Erik,

each time I was confronted to this kind of problems, it was coming from the values saved in the registry for the last window position, size, etc... Resetting them (or temporary setting the window as 'do not keep information') generally solves the problem.

If the pc on which you have the problem is a development PC, then there is good chance that a crash (or interruption in debug) during a test was the cause of the problem

Best regards

Just a thought. I'm also using a Dell Inspiron (with a 17" wide-screen). Until recently, I've had several screen problems along the lines you've mentioned, with a few pieces of software, including WinDev at one stage, though I can't remember the exact problem. It was all very frustrating but just recently I was able to get an updated screen driver which seems to have solved the screen problems. I have no idea whether this would account for your problems but just thought it worth mentioning since I'm running on a similar machine.

Hi Fabrice,

thanks for the tip. Unfortunately did not help so far. Window position etc.

is stored in an ini-file instead of registry. I deleted all entries concerning

the window with no other result. Not all windows show this effect, some do, others do not. As long as no customer is concerned, I can live with it.

Btw, I am 80% through your dvd, like it much by learning new things, especially

the chapter about software protection I found very helpful. I am waiting eager

to have the time to go further to the oop things.

I like this familiar atmosphere, I am quite shure, I heard some telephone ringing, your child(ren) and a coque in the background, if I'm right.

Strange... Did you try to remove the splitter, then create a new one?

Glad to hear that!

Hi Chris,

thank you for your answer, I will try different things next time. there are other issues which I think are driver dependant. For example when editing a check box control with WD editor, the text size increases with every new entry,

which ends up with seeing only a part of the letters (but just in the editor).

As my laptop is already 2 years old, perhaps it has really to do with a driver not just ready for the new widescreen displays. Will check whether there is a new one available.
