Compilation Problem (The right scroll bar is missing)

[edgar_ortiz]

I have an large application that runs OK for more than one year, now i recompile and FOUND a Variation in the behavior of the executable

In Version 6.5
Compile - Device (Forde QVGA) EXE
From HELP : When targeting Forced QVGA, three files will be created: MyApp.exe, MyApp.dll, MyApp.exe.config. All three files should be distributed.
The right scroll bar allow to work with the "END" of the form

In Version 6.9
Compile - Device (Auto Scale) EXE
NO help Description (just generate MyApp.exe)
There is NO way to work with the "END" of the form

How do I fix this?

Thanks in advance

Can you post a screenshot of your form?

Hi,

Images on the left correspond to version 6.9, the images of the right to version 6.5

I appreciate your help.

Thanks for your time,

I guess that you are not adding the scroll bars yourself, right?

Do you see this behavior on a real device as well? Which version and what is its resolution?

scroll bar

I do not add the scroll bar, this appears automatic when compile In Version 6.5 using : Device (Forde QVGA) EXE.

The behavior occurs on different devices when the length of the form is larger than the screen. (the screen shot refers to a Sony Ericsson Aspen 320 x 240 pixels)

The version of OS is Windows Mobile 6.1 and 6.5 Professional

Again, thanks for your time

You can try to make your layout a few pixels shorter. It may solve this issue.

The application has over 20 forms and many of them use the full form.

Is there any way to recover this functionality at compile time?

The Forced QVGA mode is no longer available in v6.9. You can compile with v6.5 instead.

I'm really disappointed by the lack of professionalism.

It's unprofessional remove an great functionality and do NOT warning. Allows the software to run on any phone. (besides not mean a great technical change, to put it back).

But hey, this is how you handle your business.

Now I have a problem I can not compile v6.5

The project was modified in version 6.9 and now trying to compile in version 6.5 shows the error :
Error loading file.
Input string was no in a correct format.

Thanks in advance for your assistance in resolving any problems

Actually the AutoScale method is much better than the Forced QVGA mode in most cases. Please send me your project file to [email protected] and I'll help you convert it.
