Grid horizontal scroll bar missing

[DerickVenter]

Hi, hope someone can help me. 

 

I have multiple grids on one panel that are displayed and hidden by pressing a button. (Simulating the use of tabs because we have lots of data that don't fit on the panel)

Say for example there are 3 tabs Tab1, Tab2 and Tab3 to display grid1, grid2 and grid3 data. When I press the Tab1 button to display grid1 data and then Minimize and Maximize the panel, the horizontal scroll bars on Tab2 and Tab3 are missing. When I then press Tab2 to display grid2 data and then Minimize and Maximize the panel, the horizontal scroll bars on Tab1 and Tab3 are missing. The same issue when I press Tab3 button.

I found that when I use the grid property Fix Bottom = Yes I get the above issue.

 

So we have a workaround (Minimize and maximize the panel) to scroll left to right in the grids for now.

 

Anyone with the same issue?

back in the day I used to use source code to redraw to window when things went missing

HWND TEMP = ObPanelAPI::GetPanelHandleByName("*Current");
InvalidateRect(TEMP,NULL,TRUE);

 

 

{
HWND TEMP = ObPanelAPI::GetPanelHandleByName("*Current");
if (!IsIconic(TEMP))
{
SetWindowPos(TEMP,HWND_TOP, 0,0,0,0,SWP_NOZORDER|SWP_SHOWWINDOW|SWP_NOACTIVATE|SWP_NOSIZE|SWP_NOMOVE|SWP_FRAMECHANGED);
}
}

 

 

// Refreshing the Panel - Desynit_Hints and Tips.pdf
// This source code is very useful when you are using the Progress ActiveX control
// and you want to update, say, a record count on the screen whilst a background process
// is running. Without using this API you would find that the panel never get's updated
// until the Progress bar has completed which is obviously a bit late.

{
// Create a reference to the panel
CWnd *pWnd = ObPanelAPI::GetPanelCWndByName("*Current");
ASSERT(pWnd);
if (pWnd)
// Refresh the panel
pWnd->UpdateWindow();
}
