I was finally doing some poking around in PB 12.1 .NET Build 6639 this week. We are using 11.5 as our production environment. I wanted to re-create a simple application of ours using WPF as a learning experience. I created a datawindow and two of the columns were not displaying correctly. They are both defined in DB2 as Long Varchar. The problem was they would not wrap the text when the length of the data exceeded the width of the column object. I did an import of my previous 11.5 datawindow and it worked fine in 12.1 - the text wrapped as expected. I scoured the properties looking for differences between my newly created datawindow and the imported version but could not find what was wrong. I eventually turned to the source code of the datawindow and found that it was the Edit.autohscroll property in my 12.1 created datawindow was set to yes. Editing the source code and makingit no finally got my text to wrap properly. I am still at a loss to find this property setting in the datawindow painter though. Is it not yet implemented?

Thanks. While you are at it, the autovscroll is also missing. I also noticed with the 12.1 WPF datawindow that in the Rows->Update Properties->Table to Update that the value is restricted to only those in the dropdown. Our DB2 database tables are named with different schemas - for example BT.BUGS. The dropdown only contains BUGS which does not work at runtime because the connection assumes the schema is the userid I am logged into the database with. In prior versions, and in PB 12.1 Classic, it correctly includes the full BT.BUGS as a choice. There were also occasions where the query was built using aliases and I needed to override all of the values in the dropdown so will need to be able to enter our own custom table names too. > I don't see it either. > I'll submit a case. > > -- Terry Dykstra (TeamSybase) > http://powerbuilder.codeXchange.sybase.com/ > http://casexpress.sybase.com > http://my.isug.com/cgi-bin/1/c/submit_enhancement > > "Will Belknap" wrote in message > news:4d2e12b9.6232.1681692777@sybase.com... > > I was finally doing some poking around in PB 12.1 .NET > Build 6639 this week.

Not what you want to see, but: According to the 12.0 PowerBuilder .NET Features Guide, in the section DataWindow Differences Between PowerBuilder Classic and PowerBuilder .NET, the unsupported properties for a datawindow column are: AccessibleDescription, AccessibleRole, CheckBox.3D, CheckBox.Scale, Compute, dddw.AutoHScroll, dddw.HSplitScroll, dddw.ShowList, dddw.UseAsBorder, ddlb.AutoHScroll, ddlb.ShowList, ddlb.UseAsBorder, ddlb.VScrollBar, Edit.AutoHScroll, Edit.AutoVScroll, Font.CharSet, Font.Escapement, Font.Family, Font.Pitch, Font.Width, HTML.property, Ink.AntiAliased, InkEdit.UseMouseForInput, LineRemove, MultiLine, RadioButtons.3D, RadioButtons.Scale, UseInternalLeading, Width.AutoSize -- Terry Dykstra (TeamSybase) http://powerbuilder.codeXchange.sybase.com/ http://casexpress.sybase.com http://my.isug.com/cgi-bin/1/c/submit_enhancement "Chris Pollach" wrote in message news:4d2e5e97@forums-1-dub...

Ah, I see that now in my docs. Unsupported, but PB is putting it in behind-the-scenes with a default of yes and it is preventing text wrapping so there is definitely a fix required. PB is also still importing it from legacy datawindows. Either add it to the interface or get rid of it entirely and get the equivalent functionality in a new way. As it is, I don't see any way to have a datawindow column that wraps short of editing the source code which isn't going to be practical. I hope you guys do put a case in if it isn't already on the list of items for the next release. > Not what you want to see, but: > > According to the 12.0 PowerBuilder .NET Features Guide, in > the section DataWindow Differences Between PowerBuilder > Classic and PowerBuilder .NET, the unsupported properties > for a datawindow column are: > > AccessibleDescription, AccessibleRole, CheckBox.3D, > CheckBox.Scale, Compute, dddw.AutoHScroll, > dddw.HSplitScroll, dddw.ShowList, dddw.UseAsBorder, > ddlb.AutoHScroll, ddlb.ShowList, ddlb.UseAsBorder, > ddlb.VScrollBar, Edit.AutoHScroll, Edit.AutoVScroll, > Font.CharSet, Font.Escapement, Font.Family, Font.Pitch, > Font.Width, HTML.property, Ink.AntiAliased, > InkEdit.UseMouseForInput, LineRemove, MultiLine, > RadioButtons.3D, RadioButtons.Scale, UseInternalLeading, > Width.AutoSize > > -- Terry Dykstra (TeamSybase) > http://powerbuilder.codeXchange.sybase.com/ > http://casexpress.sybase.com > http://my.isug.com/cgi-bin/1/c/submit_enhancement > > > "Chris Pollach" wrote in message > news:4d2e5e97@forums-1-dub... > > Hi Terry; > > Looks like "Auto Vertical Scroll" is also missing! :-( > > Regards ...
