Hi, let me see if I have understood this right: the values of the items in the .form are core, and recalculated in pixel when the form is loaded into the IDE. here an example:
{ Label1 Label MoveScaled(2,2,10,4) Text = ("Label1") } when loaded, x=14 y=14 width=70 height=28 should be an easy task ... I thought. when loading the form, the height value is increased, I generated this with (2,8,22,2) { lbl_BUD_datum Label MoveScaled(2,8,22,3) Text = ("Datum ") Alignment = Align.Right Border = Border.Raised } why, is not at all clear to me. I have also tried with 1 instead of 2, then it makes 14 pix out of it. the function calculates the height of the label plus a distance between them (1), to get a new top (y). the y-value is not influenced, so the labels are ovelapping each other: means: the new y-value is correct, while the height is too high. I could write a workaround, still I would like to know what happens here - in case I change the parameters I could be forced to write another workaround - don't know. as info: I write this generator because I have a real lot of forms to create, and data are all coming from mySql, so the behavior and functions are always the same: select record from a tableview, show the details in a data-panel, and have core-functions like new, copy, save, delete, print. if someone has an idea here, I will be grateful to here it. thanks and regards, norarg ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Verizon Developer Community Take advantage of Verizon's best-in-class app development support A streamlined, 14 day to market process makes app distribution fast and easy Join now and get one step closer to millions of Verizon customers http://p.sf.net/sfu/verizon-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Gambas-user mailing list Gambas-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/gambas-user
