Topic: Random error on development and preview

Dimitry,
Maybe you can shed some light on this. Whenever I am in FastReport developing a report, on random occasions, mousing over random areas of FastReport the screen I just left from in my project pops up and overlays the Fast Report screen. I cannot close it or do anything with it. I have to bring up Windows Task Manager to switch it out and go back to the FastReport screen. It's just not one project that it occurs in. What's worse is that it also happens for end users in previewing reports. When you mouse over the Fast Report toolbar in preview, it will do it. Sometimes if you are fast enough you can click the toolbar button before the screen pops up to save or print a report. Any ideas on what could be causing this? It happens frequently and is rather annoying.  I am on Windows 7. FastReport is 4.15.

Hello,


Thank you for the bug report, but unfortunately I can't repeat this bug, someone can attach your project and describe exactly steps to repeat this bug?


Thanks.

Dmitry.

Re: Random error on development and preview

I think I figured out the pattern to cause this situation. I tried your report examples and it does not happen, but all my projects it does. Here is the situation I think causes it. I like to use a blank maximized form as my first form so that all other forms are inside the same background. If I remove this form and start with a normal form, it does not occur. I have attached an example of what I do. Run the project and click on the print button. Then when the report preview displays, mouse over any of the buttons in the preview toolbar and the project form will pop up.

Re: Random error on development and preview

Understandable. Just need to know if you are continuing with trying to resolve the issue? The reason I ask is that I can't go to production with my projects until this is resolved. Thanks.

Re: Random error on development and preview

hello Dmitry

there is still a bug in this method. when you pick the text object and place it the memo box comes up behind the report designer. it wont come to the front to enter text and with enough hidden gives the impression the project is locked up.

Re: Random error on development and preview

Dimitry,
The preview is now fixed. Thank you. However, lhimes is right. The designer still has a problem. It's actually worse now. For example, if you click on the open button to open a report in the designer, the open dialog appears behind the designer and you cannot bring it forward to select a report and it locks the project.
