Xailer forum

Hi,
What is the correct way to hide the Form from the IDE?

That doesn't work (sometimes it only closes 1 form). To test: I open 3 files (forms) in the Editor, display each Form in Designer, open a prg file (module) and leave it active: then run the code above.
To display Forms in Designer, it always works (...:ToggleForm(cPRGForm, .T.)), but I don't need it yet.

----------------------------------------
The various Forms opened in the designer disturb the IDE* windows, so I added an option in my plugin (View Forms) to hide all forms (without closing the Editor's PRG).

* This is another reason why I think it's important to have the IDE Xailer option to use only one window, like xEdit, Delphi ... Designer could be separated, as it is today. regards,

Hello,

Is the only way. That bulk operation requires extra time between each operation.

Regards,

You can show? the idea of this topic is to know how to do, or report a likely bug.
the problem occurs with only 3 small forms, using other artifices it works randomly.

Try with ProcessMessages() after each ToggleForm() operation. If it does not work you may try to include a Sleep(100) before the ProcessMessages().

Hi,

doesn't work (it was expected)

Also expected, there should be a ToggleForm(ccc, .f.) bug to hide forms. I solved it in another efficient way and with extra advantage.

Thanks for your help.

Great for you. Please consider to give your self auto credits somewhere else. TIA
