pcsoft.us.windevCopyright 2026, PC SOFT4 Feb 2015 14:36:00 Z3 Feb 2015 16:30:00 ZI need to open a window via button click using automated procedure (as secondary thread). The opening window contains ActiveX control. When I click the button I don't see the opened window but I know it is opened because the parent window is dimmed. I created a test window w/o any controls and tried to open it as described above. It is opened. Simple question... Why window w/o controls is visible but window with ActiveX no?30WEBDEVen_UShttps://forum.pcsoft.fr/es-ES/pcsoft.us.windev/50257-open-window-from-automated-procedure-thread/read.awpmoderateur@pcsoft.fr (El moderador)webmaster@pcsoft.fr (El webmaster)guestpcsoft.us.windevhttps://forum.pcsoft.fr/es-ES/pcsoft.us.windev/50257-open-window-from-automated-procedure-thread-50290/read.awp4 Feb 2015 14:36:00 ZThank you, Alexandre.https://forum.pcsoft.fr/es-ES/pcsoft.us.windev/50257-open-window-from-automated-procedure-thread-50290/read.awphttps://forum.pcsoft.fr/es-ES/pcsoft.us.windev/50257-open-window-from-automated-procedure-thread-50290/read.awpOpen window from automated procedure (thread)guestpcsoft.us.windevhttps://forum.pcsoft.fr/es-ES/pcsoft.us.windev/50257-open-window-from-automated-procedure-thread-50289/read.awp4 Feb 2015 14:32:00 ZHi Piet and Arekusei, OpenChild() if you want the second window always over the calling window, otherwise OpenSister() to hav…https://forum.pcsoft.fr/es-ES/pcsoft.us.windev/50257-open-window-from-automated-procedure-thread-50289/read.awphttps://forum.pcsoft.fr/es-ES/pcsoft.us.windev/50257-open-window-from-automated-procedure-thread-50289/read.awpOpen window from automated procedure (thread)guestpcsoft.us.windevhttps://forum.pcsoft.fr/es-ES/pcsoft.us.windev/50257-open-window-from-automated-procedure-thread-50288/read.awp4 Feb 2015 14:26:00 ZThank you, Piet.
