2.60a MACINTOSH

kbprb The information in this article applies to:
 * Microsoft FoxPro for Macintosh, version 2.6a

SYMPTOMS
Using WindowShade to roll up the Page Preview window in the Report Writer results in a Page Preview title bar that may be moved independently of the document window. Clicking the document window for a zoom causes the window to be redrawn in a new position, leaving behind graphical residue from the window's previous position both during the preview and after exiting.

CAUSE
WindowShade, a Control-Panel utility available with Apple's System 7.5 operating system, allows FoxPro windows with title bars to be minimized. FoxPro does not anticipate this behavior and manage its graphic resources accordingly.

NOTE: WindowShade is manufactured by a vendor independent of Microsoft; we make no warranty, implied or otherwise, regarding this product's performance or reliability.

RESOLUTION
Do not minimize the the Page Preview window.

Steps to Reproduce Behavior
1. With WindowShade active, preview an existing report in the Command

Window:

REPORT FORM MYREPORT PREVIEW 2. Click the Page Preview title bar the number of times defined under WindowShade to roll up the window. 3. Move the title bar down and to the right about an inch in each direction. Note that the report image does not move with the title bar and that some gray graphic background is left behind. 4. Click the lower right of the report image. Note that it zooms in a new position, leaving unwanted graphics behind.
