Popup Window ; row-column versus top-left

[Nifrabar]

Hi!

I like to have a popup window on a defined place on the screen.
In fact just under a toolbarbutton.
I do know what's the left postion of the toolbar.
The popup window requires row and colum values (as in DOS).

Any idea how to convert those row/column values into top/left pos as usual with objects on a form?

Olaf,
Good point!
I have seen that before but just slipped out of my mind.
Will consider to use that solution.
tnx.

I notice that the ribbon bar in the VFPX project is still flagged as "under development". I wonder if it's ready for production use yet.

That's a valid point, Mike, but the VFX projects are open source, so you can help yourself.

In contrast, everything you do on your own, while that might be less complicated or less comprehensive, also has to be rated "under development", if it's not yet a standard you have already used beforehand.

In general using some third party components always has the risc of not working out, it surely also costs more than simply the price of the product, it costs time to study and use it. But if nobody starts using something, it will mature slower.

Barts, it's your judgement abou the risc of using that control. Maybe Mike is right, more so, if your project goal is very near. Now that your toolbar is working sufficiently, it may be a topic for the next version to come.

Bye, Olaf.
