TNxComboBox Hide focus problem

18 December 2012 - 10:08 PM

Hi,

I noticed that HideFocus is not working on TNxComboBox when style is set as dsDropDownList - when combo is selected the box becomes blue. The same problem is not visible when using the style dsDropDown.

NextGrid scroll bars misbehavior

17 December 2012 - 11:05 AM

Hi,

I found the following NextGrid misbehavior on latest version of components:

1. I have a grid with 10 rows.
2. To speed up the design I copy/paste one existing table and modified some of the columns (also added and removed columns).
3. During design time I make the form long (10 and 1/2 rows) and wide enough to avoid scroll bars. During Form creation I add 10 rows.
4. When the program runs I see that the Scroll bars appeared despite that there is no need from Scroll bars

I found that if I design the table with 10 and 1/2 rows the problem appears - see images below:

When I make the grid to be 11 and something rows (a little more than 11 rows exactly) - everything is OK.

Attached File  display 11 rows - last row empty.png   3.26KB   0 downloads

You can see how the last line is dark just because I added 10 rows and the space is for 11 rows.

It's strange that if I delete the whole table and redesign it from scratch the problem disappears.
Is there a way to suppress the scroll bars completely?

NxSpinEdit Show/Hide Spin buttons

12 December 2012 - 06:34 AM

Hi,

I think there is some small misbehavior in the NxSpinEdit - when the Property SpinButton is False (hidden) I can't use anymore the mouse wheel to increment/decrement the values. In my opinion the correct behavior is:

- property SpinButtons should only affect thevisual appearance of the buttons, it should not suppress the evenmts from the mouse wheel

- there should be an additional property - ShowSpinButtonsOnEdit. If SpinButtons is False and ShowSpinButtonsOnEdit is True when editing the edit box area the spin buttons will reappear automatically and after leaving the text box they will hide. In many cases it's a good idea to hide the SpinButtons because they create huge "visual noise" and the form becomes overpopulated with small details which distract the attention. In such case the SpinButtons should appear only when we edit this particular editbox. Actually this is exactly the behavior we have in NextGrid for columns TNxNumbColumn

NxSpinEdit shows button

04 December 2012 - 08:55 PM

Hi,

I noticed in the latest Next Collection that NxSpinEdit has a button. This is a nice feature but there is one small visual problem during design time. When you place the component on form it always appears with button despite that ShowButton is False. After toggling the ShownButton to on and then off the button disappears, but on the next reloading of the project things return to wrong state.

In short - I can see that TNxSpinButton button is initially shown despite that the property ShowButton is false. During run time everything is alright but during the design time the components look weird with the button shown - see below:

TNextGrid Header orientation problem

30 November 2012 - 06:55 PM

Hi,

I got the following problem with TNextGrid - when changing the Header orientation to hoVertical the characters in the header turn into squares - see image below

Only the first character remains normal. I use Tahoma font for the TNextGrid (I was not able to find a separate Font property for the header).

I saw also something strange - if I type in the header Caption the dot char <.> I see the following behavior:
- one dot - appears correctly on the screen
- two dots - the second dot is exchanged with square
- three dots - on the place of third dot appears dot. In some cases I could see capital <G> (!!!!) in this position
- four dots - displays dot - square - dot - square

I'll appreciate some help because I need to make the header text vertical.
