A potential workaround for the scrolling issue, not so much |

Eric Schwarz | I set the position of the form to centertop and I added a panel at the top who's color I set to the desktop color upon creation. My plan was to create a buffer between the top of the app and the top of the browser client area. Problem is, the drop shadow for the entire form still includes the panel, so it sticks out like a sore thumb. Oh well, back to the drawing board.

Also, why not just place the form where you want it ? Or, are you allowing for dragging the forms ? Thanks, Tim Young Elevate Software www.elevatesoft.com |

Eric Schwarz | I was trying to get around the disappearing top problem by setting the form position to CenterTop and adding a panel at the top of the form with the same color as the desktop so the form appears to be some distance from the top of the desktop. Unfortunately, since the panel is still part of the form, the drop shadow along the right edge gives it away. I've since removed the shadow so now it appears as if the form is, say, 50 from the top of the desktop and stays there even if the browser is resized to the point where it would disappear if I were using poDesktopCenter.

It might be simpler than having to mess around with the panel "buffer". Tim Young Elevate Software www.elevatesoft.com |
