Hi All,

I have something with the new preview container that I don't understand.

Within the previewcontainer (as in xsource: frxpreviewform OF ....\frxpreview.vcx) there is some use of paint. I understand why paint is used. I understand that the forms paint fires after _SCREEN.Paint fires.
Now I have the stupid problem that after changing the zoomlevel via the toolbar or the L key I run in an Paint loop.
The same problem also happens after scrolling and sometimes moving the a page. It doesn't matter if I see 1,2 or 4 pages.

_SCREEN.Paint fires, then the form.Paint doing is repainting of the output. If the forms paint ends the _SCREEN.Paint fires again. So the preview is repaintet over and over.
Sometimes this happens a smal number, sometimes it does not stop until a change of the preview.

The following is a snappet from my eventlog:

35084,964, frxpreviewform.Resize()
35084,970, frxpreviewform.Resize()
35084,970, frxpreviewform.KeyPress(108,00, 0,00)
35084,970, frxpreviewform.Paint()
35085,566, screen.Paint()
35085,573, frxpreviewform.Paint()
35086,155, screen.Paint()
35086,161, frxpreviewform.Paint()
35086,743, screen.Paint()

The Coverage looks like

   0.001175,frxpreviewform,frxpreviewform.renderpages,10,c:\..\reportpreview\frxpreview.vct,17

The pain is the change from Line 36 to line 9 in PAINT. There is no loop or the like. In the example above the line 36 is RETURN. There is a DOEVENTS in the Paint but it has no influence.

What else? The problem mostly occurs if I switch the zoomlevel from 300% to 200%.

Can someboy reproduce the failure or have any solution?

TIA

Agnes

Update:
It seems that the problem goes harder if I change _REPORTPREVIEW.
