Title: Hydraulic Cylinder Analogue Does not show up
Post by: joko markono on December 02, 2019, 07:54:33 PM

Hi team,

When i execute the ahmi, the feature does not show up. Sometimes it shows error as in attachment 1 and 2.
I have tried deleted it and insert it again, but same result. I notice this happen when i put this control inside the GroupPanel.
Can someone help me please.

GroupPanel has the "AllowDrop" property which you can try setting to True to see if that fixes your issue.

Yes, it's a bug in the control itself.

It seems to work if the point is (0, 0).

There is only 1 workaround I could suggest, once you are done designing or just before you run the app, cut that line out of the designer file and paste it into the MainForm Load event, similar to this:

Code: [Select]

    Private Sub MainForm_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load

        Me.HydraulicCylinderAnalog1.Location = New System.Drawing.Point(35, 75)

    End Sub

The designer might be putting that line back whenever you make changes to the form so remember to cut it out again.
All this until Archie manages to fix that bug and post an update.

thanks for the info.
by the way, i think for time being i will just assign the control inside another new GroupPanel and assign the location as (0,0) and then paste the new GroupPanel inside the main GroupPanel.
seems to work fine now.
