VB2005: Controls not appearing on formI have a form where when you click on a button a new form appears.
However the controls on the new form appear as blanked out regions on the form until I click on them and suddenly they appear. I haven't seen this before but am a bit of a newbie with VB 2005 so does anybody know why this is happening? -- ______ ___ __ /_ __/_ __/ _ )_______ ___ _/ /_____ ____ / / / // / _ / __/ -_) _ `/ '_/ -_) __/ /_/ \_, /____/_/ \__/\_,_/_/\_\\__/_/ /___/ There are 10 types of people in this world; those who understand the binary numbering system and those who don't.

The form does appear but just not rendered properly. I've been hunting through the properties of the form to see if there's anything set that might be related but I haven't had any luck. Not sure if it is related but my main form is an appbar and when you click on one of the buttons on the appbar, the new form appears. Is the fact that the main form is an appbar causing this oddity in the child form? I did have to use APIs to make the appbar function properly so perhaps it's affecting the other form? -- ______ ___ __ /_ __/_ __/ _ )_______ ___ _/ /_____ ____ / / / // / _ / __/ -_) _ `/ '_/ -_) __/ /_/ \_, /____/_/ \__/\_,_/_/\_\\__/_/ /___/ There are 10 types of people in this world; those who understand the binary numbering system and those who don't.

For some reason this caused the controls within the spawned form to appear transparent on initial rendering. If you clicked on them or simply moved the spawned form, they then appeared correctly. Bug? Who cares, it's fixed now. -- ______ ___ __ /_ __/_ __/ _ )_______ ___ _/ /_____ ____ / / / // / _ / __/ -_) _ `/ '_/ -_) __/ /_/ \_, /____/_/ \__/\_,_/_/\_\\__/_/ /___/ There are 10 types of people in this world; those who understand the binary numbering system and those who don't.
