control location within a frame

[Blue Blazes]

How to locate controls relative to the frame perimeter? In VB6 the "left" and "top" properties were relative to the frame perimeter. Here it seems they are relative to the form perimeter.

You are right.

Not sure about why what you need. You could write in code

Code: Select all

x  = frame.x - innercontrol.x
y  = frame.y - innercontrol.y

Anyway, it will be changed to VB6 behaviour in the 2.x series comming later this year.

Thank you, Bernd, I will look at innercontrol.

Thank you, Bernd, I will look at innercontrol.

With innercontrol I meant the control(s) lying in the frame.

Hi Bernd,

Will the "real container" issue be 'fixed' at the same time?

Due to lack of time, I plan to implement it in KBasic 2.x only.

Rewriting the needed parts for KBasic 1.x is just to much work for now for me as single person. But critical bugs in 1.x will be fixed.

Sorry about that.
