SOLVED - Size and position of table columns WX26

Hi,
I did a recompile of some old v21 apps, using WD 26.
I suddenly lost size and position handling of table columns in some (not all) of my windows.
Checked with the registry, XML, and ini files parameters for Initparameter, but no luck.

Any Ideas?

Regards

Hi Steven,

the columns of all my table controls are always adjusted to 100%, means that all anchoring adds up to exactly 100%. I cannot believe that these values are lost - if so, please tell us! If you do not define table controls that way then you're at the hands of PC Soft's programmers. Table Controls in Wx are a permanent construction site and therefore subject to change.

Kind regards,

Hi Guenter and thanks for your post,

I finally found the problem and I am posting it here - if someone else stumbles on it.

If you have these types of command(s) - anywhere in a window (with a table control):

yourTABLE.col1..visible = FALSE

and you have enabled (in the yourTABLE table) the "select columns menu, " the yourTABLE "restores" to the original design - bypassing any changes a user has made - either using a XML, INI or Register entry.

Hi,
found another Bug in Resizing
- you should find a way so users do not "hide" the"anchor column" of the table.
