Missing GET cursor for numeric in Folder

[TimStone]

Using this folder:

Code: Select all  Expand view

DEFINE DIALOG oWdlg1 BRUSH oBrush RESOURCE "WOMAINw" TRANSPARENT OF oWdlg TITLE cTitle
    REDEFINE FOLDEREX oFld ID 356 OF oWdlg1 ;
        PROMPT "   General   ", "   Parts   ", "   Labor   ", "   Recommend   ", "   Totals   ", "   Inspect   ", "   Costing   ", "  Services  ", "   Attachments   " ;
        DIALOGS "WOGENw", "WOPARw", "WOLABw", "WORECw", "WOTOTw", "WOINSw", "WOCSTw", "WOSVCw", "WOATTw" ;
        ON CHANGE ( oCurrentOrder:FolderCheck( oFld, oWorkParts, oWorkPartsr, oWorkLabor, oWorkLaborr, ;
          oWorkNeeds, oWorkNeedsr ), oWdlg1:update() ) ;
    ROUND 5 TRANSPARENT
        oFld:aGradUnSel := { { 0.50,16776960,16777215 }, { 0.50,16777215,16776960 } }
         oFld:aGradOverUnSel := { { 0.25, nRGB( 100, 149, 237 ), nRGB( 100, 149, 237 ) },{ 0.75,  16777215,16776960 } }
 

And the .rc:

Code: Select all  Expand view

WOMAINw DIALOG 0, 0, 850, 460
STYLE WS_POPUP | WS_CAPTION
CAPTION "Workorder Development Options"
{
    CONTROL                 "", 101, "TBar", 0|WS_CHILD|WS_VISIBLE, 0,0, 850, 30
    CONTROL         "",356,"TFolderex",WS_TABSTOP,5,35,840,420
    LTEXT           "",4001,550,10,150,13
}
 

The GET:

REDEFINE GET oWorkPartsr:parlbs PICTURE "99999.99" MESSAGE aMsg[ 79 ] ID 748 OF oFld:aDialogs[ 2 ] UPDATE
And .rc
EDITTEXT 748,100,85,50,10, ES_RIGHT | ES_MULTILINE

Built with FWH 16.06, cursor does not display in any fields that are numeric and right justified. It works correctly on dialogs that are not in a folder, and it works correctly for non-numeric fields. However, when clicking on a numeric field, the cursor will not show.

I have spent two days drilling down code, re-writing code, etc. with the same result. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Why ES_MULTILINE ?

[TimStone]

That was the standard for years on numeric fields defined in an .rc. At one point it was a requirement. I can't tell you why, but it was.

I just commented it out, and the cursor re-appeared. It has worked perfectly for at least 15 years ... very strange.

For numerics values?, or only for memo fields ?

[TimStone]

Whenever we wanted to right justify a numeric GET, that was the requirement. It goes back to my earliest days with FWH

Maybe Antonio has an answer.

[Antonio Linares]

Yes, it is possible but now it seems as it is no longer needed

[Enrico Maria Giordano]

That was a requirement for 16bit resources. No more for 32bit ones
