Karen,

 

In the form check the ALPHABLEND box.  Set the value to 255.

 

Then, in the on-after-start:

 

PROPERTY RBASE_FORM ALPHABLENDVALUE '0'

 

I may have the 0 and the 255 reversed . don't recall offhand.

 

BTW, sorry I didn't see your message early enough.  We have some Citrix
users with dual monitors, and what you did is exactly what we do, except
they want the form on the right monitor so we use a larger LEFT value.

 

Paul:  With Citrix, you can specify the desktop size regardless of the
server's resolution.

Subject: [RBASE-L] - Re: Dual monitor - plus alphablend

 

I found that PROPERTY RBASE_FORM LEFT 100 does what I need to bring the form
to a static place on the monitor.

But my small login form jumps from the middle to the left, so I know I need
to play around with Alphablend to make the form invisible while I make the
move.  I have examples saved, but nothign works to make the form invisible,
move it, then display.  I tried both alphablend and alphablendvalue, but I
guess I'm doing them incorrectly or in the wrong order...  Anyone help?

Karen
