Hi there.
I'm trying to write a MDI application in Lazarus (Win32/Vista, Lazarus
0.9.31).
I created the main form and set its FormStyle property to fsMDIForm. Then I
created the child form and set its FormsStyle to fsMDIChild.
I also created a menu where I can start a new form. I moved the child form
the non-automatic-created form list. And used the following code to create
it:
-----------------
procedure TfrmMain.mnuEntrarDadosClick(Sender: TObject);
var frmChild: TfrmRelatVend;
begin
frmChild := TfrmRelatVend.Create(self);
frmChild.Show;
end;
-----------------
I also wrote a formClose handler for the child so it gets freed when I close
it.
-----------------
procedure TfrmRelatVend.FormClose(Sender: TObject;
var CloseAction: TCloseAction);
begin
CloseAction := caFree;
end;
-----------------
Altough the form gets created and shows up, it does not have a MDI behavior,
eg, it does not "stay" in the limits of its parent form and it gets
maximized on top of its parent form.
What am I doing wrong?
thank you
