MMF 2 - Scrollbar Support without using MDI

I want to say thanks for correcting the display problem when using a subapp over a frame with edit fields. This now works great.

As you know I have been trying to create a data input form with several edit and combo fields. At the bottom of the form is a "Submit for Processing" button.

The form (frame) is 800 wide by 1200 high. So to see the form, you need to be able to scroll up and down. If you resize the window, you will need hortizontal scrolling to see the complete form (frame) also.

Once solution I found was to change to an MDI interface. This works great. I am able to scroll up and down, left and right and see the form with no problem. However, Clickteam has recommended I not do this and instead use the non-MDI interface.

So I have tried this but I have problems:

1. First the non-MDI version does not support any scrollbars as part of the window. To get around this, I tried using Vortex's Easyscrollbar. However there are problems with this also.

a. The Easyscrollbar is not a finished product.
b. Scrolling seems a bit jerky and the scollbar want to
follow the frame.
c. Clickteam does not have a scrollbar object.

2. The next problem in using the normal non-MDI interface is that the frame will not scroll correctly and has a display bug or error. If I use the Easyscrollbar to get the frame to scroll up, then it will scroll up for about an inch and then the frame is white. It is like the form's bottom has been cut off. Perhaps this is just some setting I'm missing but I have search and search and not found one.

Trouble with another application due to no scroll bar object has also been with my Video Display program I wrote in MMF 1.5. I have not been able to transfer it MMF 2 because there is no scrollbar object in MMF 2. When viewing a video, I use the scrollbar to rapidly move back and forth within the video.

The reason I am concerned is that I want to try to only use clickteam supported objects so I can be assured I can upgrade my MMF developed application to new versions of MMF.

My request:

1. I would like to see the frame scrolling display problem fixed in then non-MDI version.

2. I would like the window in the non-MDI version to allow for scrollbars to be turned on and off.

3. I would like to see a clickteam supported scrollbar object so upgrading to new versions of MMF is possible.

A version of my application is in the archive to see examples of the issues I have discussed.
