Value disappear

Roberto Marra

Hi there,
I got this problem. First of all let me briefly explain what I want to get.

I got a variable trgetType that take a DBSourceValue field. When this value is 14 I want to put visible a field and increase the size of the field, so I wrote the following code:

If Me.trgetType = "14" Then
  txtDocNumNC.Visible = True
  txtDocNumNC.Size = New PerpetuumSoft.Framework.Drawing.Vector(3.1,2.0)    
End If

Everything works properly until I don't change the size of the textBox, when I do that the value is no more shown

Any idea why?

Thnx in advance
Roberto

Hi Roberto

The engine uses an internal unit.
To convert use:

PerpetuumSoft.Framework.Drawing.Unit.

Hi Philipp,
can you be more clear pls. What you mean with "convert"?

Can you re-take my example and put it in the correct way pls. Coz I made some test with PerpetuumSoft.Framework.Drawing.Unit but I got back other error.

Thnx
Roberto

Hi there,
actually I solved in this way:

txtDocNumNC.Size = New PerpetuumSoft.Framework.Drawing.Vector(3.1f, 1.5f).ConvertUnits(PerpetuumSoft.Framework.Drawing.Unit.Centimeter, PerpetuumSoft.Framework.Drawing.Unit.Centimeter)

I don't know if you meant that anyway..

Thx
Roberto
