Scrolling in Subscreen (Tabstrip)

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have a fairly large subscreen in a tabstrip and for users running a 800 x 600 monitor resolution a scrolling bar appears because the tabstrip resizes to fit the screen and the subscreen doesn't fit in the space reserved any more. So far no problem, but in the lower half of the subscreen there is a table control. I need to scroll down in the subscreen to view the table control. Now, everytime I click the scrolling-bar of the table control to scroll throw its entries, the subscreen re-positions to show the first input field in the subscreen. Which means: I have to scroll down the subscreen again to see the tablecontrol.

How can I avoid this behaviour?

Thanks for suggestions, Kathrin!

Hi Kathrin

I do not know whether this would be a solution but try to utilize the option "Hold Screen Position" existing at "Attributes" tab for your screen in Screen Painter.

Hi Serdar!

I've tried this option, but unfortunately it doesn't solve the problem.

Thanks anyway,

Kathrin,

Try using GET and SET CURSOR. Get the cursor in PAI after you click the table control scroll. Then in PBO of your subscreen, SET the cursor to the one you get in PAI.
