Last reviewed: May 15, 1996
Article ID: Q110768
The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft FoxPro for Macintosh, version 2.5b

SYMPTOMS

When you are using FoxPro for Macintosh with multiple monitors, an application created with FoxApp will display the Controls window either off the screen or to the lower right of its correct placement.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in FoxPro version 2.5b for Macintosh. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

MORE INFORMATION

Steps to Reproduce Problem

  1. Create an application with FoxApp.

  2. Run the application with a single-monitor configuration.
Note the
   placement of the Controls window.

  • Execute the application with a dual-monitor configuration. If the
       primary monitor is smaller than the secondary monitor,
    
    the Controls
       window is off the screen. If the primary monitor is
    
    larger than the
       secondary monitor, the Controls window is placed to the
    
    lower right of
       its correct placement.
