And if all your objects still are not in view, then open the Object List and select the objects there, Press F11 and set their TOP and LEFT settings on the property sheet.
Also, If you are copying TEXT or other objects from an extraneous source, you want to be sure to click on the target tabsheet before pasting, otherwise the default object selected when you open the form for editing is the form itself, and the pasted objects will be contained there. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Lawrence Lustig" <[email protected]> To: "RBASE-L Mailing List" <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, October 26, 2012 10:02 PM Subject: [RBASE-L] - Re: Enhanced tab Control What happens when you copy from one container and paste into another is that the top and left position of the thing that you copy has the same offset as in the original container. If you copying from something big and pasting into something small, it is likely that thing you pasted is too far down and/or to the right to be visible. You can: 1. Move the thing(s) your copying to the upper left of the original container before hitting CTRL-C. or 2. Immediately after you hit CTRL-V to paste and before you do anything else, hit CTRL-UP and CTRL-LEFT to move the still-selected objects. Even moving one unit will force the object to move into the visible area of the screen. or 3. Make the target container large enough to see the pasted components, move them, then resize (doesn't work if the pasted components are anchored bottom right since they'll follow the resized lower right corner). -- Larry ________________________________ From: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> To: RBASE-L Mailing List <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, October 26, 2012 9:16 PM Subject: [RBASE-L] - Enhanced tab Control I am trying to copy and paste text on a form with 4 tabs. I pasted text will not appear on the tabs. I only can see text when I add new text boxes to the tabs. I need some help.
