Attachtowindow causes MDI alignment issue

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Why when adding a command bar (.XCB) using the "Attachtowindow" comand to an MDI parent window, does it cause the "client area" (position where all child forms appear) to alter, so that when a child form is maximised it goes behind any other aligned control (including our CJ shortcut bar!!) on the master delphi form??

It appears to "play about" with the alignment properties of the original delphi components and the CJ shortcut bar.

when the "Attachtowindow" line is asterisked out, the system works fine, including the CJ shortcut bar as before!! - i.e all anchoring and alignment works as they should.

We use the CJ Shortcut bar and CJ Commandbar for Delphi 4 (via active X)
