Title: picturebox problem
Post by: wvc on September 11, 2009, 02:52:15 PM

I have a dialog that has a picture box with lables and textboxs on top of it. I have been using this
same box since the original objectdcl and through all the versions of opendcl. I am currently using 5.1.2.3
With this version of studio the picture dominates all the other controls when I send it to the back. If I bring it to
the front then I can see the other controls but can not select them. When I send the picture box to the back then I can not see the
label and textboxs to move them.If I turn visible false then I can move the other controls. I have tried many settings but with the same results. It displays ok in AutoCAD. Does anyone
have a cure. Thanks wvc

Hi, wvc,

this problem is known. Owen explained it here (http://www.opendcl.com/forum/index.php?topic=701.msg3405#msg3405).

As Fred says, there is no good solution to the painting order problem. You can get into the habit of selecting overlapping controls in the tab/z-order pane instead of clicking on them in the dialog workspace and getting the wrong one.

Thanks for the help. Opendcl is a great tool. As I said it still works fine in AutoCad.
