 * width="100%"|

ID: Q111511

The information in this article applies to:


 * Microsoft FoxPro for Windows, versions 2.5x, 2.6, and 2.6a

SYMPTOMS
Two windows that are defined with a common side may overlap each other when you are using smaller screen font point sizes.

STATUS
This behavior is by design.

Steps to Reproduce Behavior
1. Start FoxPro for Windows.

2. While holding down the SHIFT key, open the Text menu and then choose

Screen Font. 3. In the Font dialog box, select Courier New, Regular style, 9 point size. Choose OK. 4. In the Command window, issue the following commands: DEFINE WINDOW test1 FROM 1,1 TO 20,20 DEFINE WINDOW test2 FROM 2,20 TO 20,40 ACTIVATE WINDOW test1 ACTIVATE WINDOW test2 Note that the two windows overlap. However, if you increase the screen font size to 10 point and reexecute the code above, the windows will have a gap between them.
