Description:
I'm busy writing an applications that has a relatively large set of menus. 11 on the MainMenu and some of those have 21 submenu items (used for reports). The menu editor works very erratic. I had to close the menu editor and form and then reload the form again, to restore things. This was a big pain! Scrolling inside the menu editor and resizing the window cause menu items to become hidden and you have to unload/reload the form to see the items again.
Steps to reproduce:
- Create 11 menu items on the MainMenu so that the menu editor gives you a horizontal scrollbar.
2) Go to the second last menu item and create a sub menu. Add 20 items to the sub menu.
* By now you should have seen some problems. The menu items close after inserting items that can't fit into the size of the menu editor.
* Scrolling vertically in the menu editor cause the menu to close, jump to a different location and not allow me to scroll further to the right. See images 1 and 2. In image 1 you will see the Accounts menu is to the right of the Notes menue. After I scrolled down, the Notes menu is now the right most menu items (Accounts and other items are hidden and I can't scroll right - see image 2).
- I thought that instead of using the scrollbars in the menu editor, I'll resize the menu editor screen. See image 3. Now I can't scroll to the left to see my main menu items. I can only see the last 4 mainmenu items out of the 11 I have. The scrollbars are totally useless!
