Hi. We are using Alphaskins and Delphi XE 32 Bit.

Sometimes it happens that the form is not shown. The code runs fine, no exceptions, we logged the beginning and the end of the “OnFormShow” event, and all is executed fine.

Simply, the for is not shown, or sometimes just the borders are shown.

As the form is showed with “showmodal” the user cannot see it and close it, so the user thinks that the software is hanging, and kills the software by the task manager.

This is a very big problem, but does not happens always, just sometimes.

Can you please help us?

Thanks

Hello! Sorry for a trouble.

This issue exists with a modal form? Can you give me Dfm file for this form, please?

Showing of form is animated?

What is version number of your Windows system? Aero is enabled there?

How often this empty form issue occurs?

I saw that transparent form also “sometimes”, mostly with teamviewer sessions. So far i added a

Code:

Form1.sSkinManager1.RepaintForms(False);

in the OnShow procedure. Don't know if this really fixed it.

Hello!

– The issue exist for a modal form.

The main form opens a second modal form. The second modal form then is closed (free) and a third modal form is open: the issue is on the third form.

– Form is not animated, but AllowAnimation is TRUE: please find the DFM attached (renamend in .txt)

– Happens in Seven and Vista, much less with Aero disabled, but happens.

– We confirm that it happens frequently with TeamViewer sessions.

– The issue happens on 5% / 10%

– I will add the Repaintforms(true) and see if it works. I already added a Update; and Repaint; at the end of OnShow, but didnt fixed.

Thanks

If you have a license with full AlphaControls sources, then write me to support@alphaskins.com

I can send you a patched file for checking.

Otherwise, you can wait the nearest release and try it.

I have the same problem!

Is it possible to apply a patch on version 10.26?

Thanks.

Hello, Daniele!

I'm sorry, it's not possible, a lot of changes should be made, the v10.26 is too old.
