FIX: PageFrame Refresh Fails with Stacked Pages

 Last reviewed: December 20, 1995
Article ID: Q141356
The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Visual FoxPro for Windows, version 3.0

SYMPTOMS

During design mode in the Form Designer when all of the following conditions are true, the display will not refresh properly unless you press ALT+TAB to move away from Visual FoxPro and come back to it again:

  • A PageFrame on the form
  • The TabStretch property set to 0 (Stack).
  • You have several rows of pages.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article. This problem was corrected in FoxPro 3.0b for Windows.

MORE INFORMATION

Steps to Reproduce Problem

  1. In the Command window, type the following command:

    CREATE FORM myform

  2. Add a PageFrame object to the form, and set the following properties:

    PageCount = 5 TabStretch = 0 - Stack

  3. Edit the PageFrame object, and decrease its horizontal width so that there are three rows of pages.

  4. Change the Caption property of each page to be just the page number (1, 2, 3, and so on).

At the point at which the pages fit back into a single row, the refresh is incomplete. To refresh the form, press ALT+TAB to move away from Visual FoxPro and then return to it.
