One of the neat new features that hasnt been much discussed yet
is the Hide on Startup selection on form objects (context menu).
If you have a form with a lot of objects, many of which need to
be hidden at first, and you a) hate the flicker associated with
this, and b) dont want to do the heavy lifting to make those
objects dynamic, then this feature is for you.
When you check Hide on Startup, the object will automatically be
hidden when the form loads and youll not have the associated
flicker. You *must* then issue a PROPERTY
VISIBLE TRUE to
see the object, and, if you subsequently want it hidden again,
reverse that. Meanwhile, the form looks much nicer as it opens.
Thank you, Razzak, for this window-dressing feature. Im already
putting it to good use.
Emmitt,
The credit goes to you for submitting the official request and
the tireless efforts of the talented and dedicated R:Dream Team
to implement such a cool feature.
Enjoy the latest updates and make sure to have fun!
Very Best R:egards,
Razzak.
