news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
I'm in the middle of writing a fairly large PalmOS app (~300K) and I am noticing that when I bring up tips and a dialog on top of another dialog, the background is not being saved of the parent dialog. When I return the parent diaog, I get a blank screen. I'm bypassing this by sending an event to the parent dialog to redraw.
However, when a Tips dialog is brough up, I don't have this option. I'm
running the same code on a 4.0 machine (m505) and this is also
happening. I'm sure there is some sort of resource issue here. What
happened and how do I prevent this?
Doesn't the OS sent a frmUpdate event after a popup dialog like this?
Have you tried setting the "save behind" flag on the form?The disturbing thing is that the flag is set. I think I'm hitting heap boundaries but not sure why. If my code is where I need to do a total redraw each call then I think I'll end up implementing my own "save behind" buffering as needed ... ugh.
