Wierd stack behaviour- location is off the planet!

2010-04-05 Thread planix

Hiya,

RunRev 4 Build 950 on a Windows XP.

I wonder if anyone has seen the following.

I have a stack which fronts a series of sub-stacks. It doesn't have any
scripts apart from a menu choice so the user can go from this stack to the
other sub-stacks where data is stored and managed.

The problem I have is that suddenly, and for no discernible reason, the
front stack disappeared. It seemed to be available and visible was set to
true. So, I had a look in size  position properties. There I found that the
location of this stack was set at -32165, -31850. Bizarre. I don't have any
coding anywhere in my stacks that resets window location or anything.

Ho, hum, thunk I I'll just reset the location manually and viola, problem
solved! Hah! No such luck. I can't change the location. Doesn't matter what
I type in it sets back to the location described above. Without even a mild
attempt to come back to me.

I have no idea how I made this happen. And I have no idea of how to make it
come back.

Any thoughts on this? Seems like a bug to me. So, I will report it unless I
am just doing something blindingly stupid.

Did you try 'set the lockmessages to true' before changing the loc?  
Don't forget to set it to false when everything's fixed, though.

Hi Planix,

is by chance the iconic property of your stack set to true?

Try in messagebox:

set the iconic of stack yourStack to false


Hth,

Malte
