In response to a question on another thread, I tested an FPW2.6 app running on Win98 Second Edition. The only failure was "position off screen" on a system with a 3D video card!


>I have a client that is getting Error #30 Position is off screen when he brings up several of my screens. He's the only one out of over 80 clients that is getting this error. I have checked several things and can't figure this one out. I need help. The application is written in FPW2.6b

>The things I have checked:
>1) He doesn't have Large Fonts in the screen properties for Windows 98
>2) He has tried running at 800X600 and 1024X768 without it fixing the problem
>3) The application sets the background screen font to Arial, 8 on startup
>4) The screen background font is Arial 10
>5) The screen only uses TrueType fonts. No MS Sans Serif involved.

>I've tracked it down to the m.nullx fields that GenscrnX adds when the screen is processed. Genscrnx was using MS Sans Serif on those fields, so I changed GenscrnX to use Arial. Doing this didn't fix the problem.
