Hi,

The Filter Edit control of the Report Control behaves strangely: it erases its border and it positions the text badly.

There's a bug here :

void CXTPReportFilterEditControl::OnPaint()
{
CPaintDC dc(this); // device context for painting

...

It must be : CClientDC dc(this);

Please fix it in the next release of Codejock.

Regards,

Think it was already changed.

Here is last version:

void CXTPReportFilterEditControl::OnPaint()
{
if (GetWindowTextLength() == 0 && ::GetFocus() != m_hWnd)
{
CPaintDC dc(this); // device context for painting

CXTPFontDC autoFont(&dc, GetFont(), GetXtremeColor(COLOR_GRAYTEXT));

// show hint text
CString strText = GetHint();

  CRect rc;
  GetClientRect(&rc);
  dc.FillSolidRect(rc, GetXtremeColor(COLOR_WINDOW));

  CRect rcText;
  GetRect(&rcText);
  dc.DrawText(strText, rcText, DT_SINGLELINE | DT_VCENTER | DT_NOPREFIX | DT_EDITCONTROL);
}
else
{
  Default();
}
}

ps. Never use CClientDC in WM_PAINT handler.

Ok, thank you, here is the code of my version :

void CXTPReportFilterEditControl::OnPaint()
{
    CPaintDC dc(this); // device context for painting

     CString strText;
     GetWindowText(strText);
     CXTPFontDC autoFont(&dc, GetFont());

     if(GetFocus() == this || !strText.IsEmpty())
     {
          // edit is focused or not empty, show edit text
          autoFont.SetColor(GetXtremeColor(COLOR_WINDOWTEXT));
     }
     else
     {
          // show hint text
          strText = GetHint();
          autoFont.SetColor(GetXtremeColor(COLOR_GRAYTEXT));
     }

     CRect rc;
     GetClientRect(&rc);
     dc.FillSolidRect(rc, GetXtremeColor(COLOR_WINDOW));

     dc.DrawText(strText, rc, DT_SINGLELINE | DT_VCENTER | DT_NOPREFIX);

     // Do not call CEdit::OnPaint() for painting messages
}

The "Default();" call is missing here ---> it paints text on the whole control (no margins and borders/client area)...

We will upgrade.
