19.1 Tabbed Workspace View - Things to not do.
I have a view I converted to a tabbed workspace. at the top of the view was this object:
Code:
Object oTL_Caption is a TextBox
Set Auto_Size_State to False
Set Size to 13 90
Set Location to -2 26
Set Label to 'Logged Out'
Set FontPointHeight to 14
End_Object
when you push the textbox up off the top of the screen, (location = -2 26) it totally fouls up the whole anchoring logic, and it's bloody hard to track down as to WHY the anchoring & scrolling is fubar. I had a dbTabpage with a grid on it in the center of the screen, and as you re-sized the page the whole tab page just upped and disappeared.
There are warnings in the help about piMinSize being larger than piSize, but no warnings I saw about placing objects partially outside the area of the scrolling container.
