RichText preview problem

edited April 2007 in General
Hi

V10.05

We have a problem with a letter whereby the TppRichText components dont come
out on the preview but do come out on the print.

If I make them non Transparent then they appear on the preview. However it
appears that the letter background in the preview is always the same as the
window colour in the desktop (or maybe the colour of the parent form) . In
my case the window colour and form colours are always clSilver so white
RichTexts look really bad.

If this is some quirk of the printer driver or windows dlls then a solution
would be to set the preview letter background to white so that non
transparent richtexts merge in - is this possible?

Regards
Paul

    Hi Paul,

    Please upgrade your version of ReportBuilder to 10.06 and test with that.
    There have been some enhancements made since the last version.

    Thanks Nico - 10.06 fixed it.

    BTW - I always wanted the preview to continuous scroll. This was discussed
    years ago and I was told I could code it myself - this was too hard so I
    gave up. I still feel that scrolling is a really poor feature of RB - are
    there any plans to change it?

    Regards
    Paul
