Can't get scrollbars to work in non-modal dialog

Classic Servoy
1

I have this form that I need to launch as a non-modal dialog.
The form launches just fine but I want the form to be resizable, so I launch it with the ‘resizable’ parameter set to true.
The form launches just fine and is resizable… but no scrollbars show up.
I set the form so that the scrollbars are ‘as required’ but I don’t see any scrollbars when I resize the form smaller than its original dimensions.
I set the form so that the scrollbars are ‘always’ but I still don’t see any scrollbars when I resize the form smaller than its original dimensions.

Is there any way to launch a non-modal dialog and make it resizable and have scrollbars show up when the form gets resized smaller than its original dimensions ??

I’m using Servoy v4.1.0 build 651 and this is all running in WebClient.

Thanks in advance
Mark

shameless, self-promoting bump :D

Any ideas ?

If you are familiar with Java you might look into getting the window handle for each dialog and using it to see if scroll bars can be enabled. I have not examined this aspect but have done similar functions.

Can you try this with the latest release (4.1.2) and if the problem persists, create a case in our support system with sample solution?

We will be doing an upgrade to 4.1.2 over the next few days - I’ll report my findings.

Upgraded to 4.1.2 and we see no change - still not getting scrollbars in our non-modal dialogs.

As far as a sample solution is concerned all you need to do is create a form and set its scrollbars to ‘always’, call it up with modal set to false and resizable to true.
Then, resize the window and you will see no scrollbars - not much to do.

Can you file a case for this in our support system?

This issue is fixed now ( behaves the same as webclient modal: if scrollbars are needed they will show up). The fix will be included in next release.
