| Due to a problem in Citect under certain
circumstances the bitmap of the restore region for a size move
animation (that is the screen image before the sizemove was drawn)
becomes corrupted. The net result is that rubbish is drawn below
the size move animation. This will only occur for animation modes
which cause the background image to restore the background. If you
need the background to be restored for your size move animation
then the only way of avoiding this problem (until a maintenance
release is forthcoming) is to avoid the circumstances which lead to
it occurring. As far as I aware the problem will occur if you do
the following. Move the cursor over a button with tip help; wait
for the tip help to appear and then press the button to bring up a
popup (genie); the next time the size move is updated (ie.
stockpile) garbage is drawn onto the screen behind the size move.
It should be possible to avoid this problem by switching of tip
help or if that is not a satisfactory option only bring up a popup
(genie) when the tip help is not showing. You can hide the tip help
by moving the mouse off the button to a region which has no tip
help. If tip help is hidden for a period greater than one second it
will take a further second to show when moving to a region with tip
help. This should leave enough time to press the button before help
appears. Alternatively the keyboard may be used to control the
focus. Since tip help is tied to the mouse it won't follow the
focus if changed via the keyboard. |
