Dear Vixens and Reynards:
My boss has just reported a bit of a display issue with our VFP
app. In looking over the issue, I have found a slightly bigger mess
and am wondering what I can do about it.
The app was running in Product on Windows XP not so long ago,
and I still develop under it XP.
I use the Windows Classic theme as I find it
clearer. Production uses the default Windows theme (which I think of
as Windows FP (Fisher Price)). It is much less clear to me, and so I
switched on my system. More importantly is that "WFP" takes more
space, and the wider borders seem to be taking from the form display area.
The form that was complained about has an input field whose
associated label has a screen .left of 0. The first character of the
label is "W", but the form border covers it partially so that the
first character appears to be a "V". Why is this happening?
The original complaint is that the toolbar display that I have
for form operations is displaying over top of some of the input
controls. On my system, the roolbar is just to the right of the
control. On a Production system, it is displayed about 1 1/2
characters leftward.
I suspect that these two issues are related.
I suppose that I could kludge and simply position the toolbar
20 or so pixels right, but I would like to understand why what is
happening is happening. Why this difference, and what can I do about it?
Sincerely,
Gene Wirchenko
