Thanks Phil

Use Show Cart to get into GA040S06 .
Click on a plant.
Click Change Quantity
The list width changes, to reveal other fields and buttons.

Does anything there look like your white line?

Ayone else seeing this white line?

No cant see it their and i have moved my mouse all over the screen

this white line is only visible when you move your curser in the correct place about 1cm away from the R on the ADD item to this ORDER button in the Add to my MAIL ORDER i can not see it in the Show Cart, it is more of a greyey than a white line

All testing done successfully.

(a) OK
(b) OK
(c) OK
(d) OK
(e) OK
(f) OK (Microsoft Outlook).

Don't get the white or grey line that Phil is experiencing on GA040S06 or any of the other screens navigated in the Gower catalog during this test.

Laurie.

Thanks Laurie (especially for your time during your other projects!)
It may not be apparent, but Ive been working continually on that set of programs (mostly FGA040) since the last Catalog download & challenges were set.
Hope it proves useful to users and Nurseries.

I'm at a loss as to what to do about that "ghost" line Phil is seeing. Need a lot of feedback to see if its widespread.

Were you using Vista Phil?

thankyou thought i was seeing things then

ideasguy · « **Reply #32 on:** February 25, 2009, 09:58:15 PM »

Thanks Eric and Phil
Looks like a Vista thing. At present I have no solution.
Is it a broad line? e.g. does it look like the ghost of a vertical scroll bar?
I need to get onto a Vista machine to test this properly.

Palustris · « **Reply #33 on:** February 26, 2009, 09:20:58 AM »

It is about 2 characters wide and about 10 lines long.

thats about right its the same colour as add item to this order button
ooohh look i did a snipeing tool pic by just useing the keys as i had to keep mouse curser on the offending line

ideasguy · « **Reply #35 on:** February 26, 2009, 10:36:09 AM »

Thanks again Eric & Phil
Thats a good screenshot, Phil.

Question: Does the line disappear again when you move the mouse past that region, and re-appear when you mouse over it?

roiphil · « **Reply #36 on:** February 26, 2009, 12:14:52 PM »

Answer Yes

Palustris · « **Reply #37 on:** February 26, 2009, 12:29:32 PM »

If you want something really weird. If you move the mouse up the line it goes behind the Order box!

ideasguy · « **Reply #38 on:** February 26, 2009, 12:49:30 PM »

Thanks folk. Theres no extra charge for that feature

I hope everyone doesnt ask for that! I dont know how to get rid of it (yet) and dont know how to make it happen

NightHawk · « **Reply #39 on:** February 26, 2009, 12:59:38 PM »

I really wish I could help you on this one George.

However, it seems to be a 'Vista' anomaly and our 3 PC's all have Windows XP, which does not manifest this strange occurrence.

Laurie.

Guess what

Just curious, tried it here on xp machine, and it does do the same thing

No kidding

And if you follow the line DOWN with the mouse, a small checkbox appears with a tick in it. And the white line dissapears. Even more "features" George,

So that may help George in de bugging it, not that I am worried about it.

Edit

Had another look and you can get another box appear if you continue UPWARDS past the end of the line. This is definately a scoll box problem

Can you please retry see if it is the same on XP and Vista.

Malcolm

NightHawk · « **Reply #41 on:** February 26, 2009, 06:06:23 PM »

It gets more curious by the minute.

Definitely a 'challenge' for you here George.

This is just not consistent. Vista PC's first (which seemed to indicate the area to focus on), and now a different XP PC.

Laurie.

P.S. I'm definitely not getting it Malcolm.

Lyn and Malcolm · « **Reply #42 on:** February 26, 2009, 06:19:18 PM »

Laurie

So if you put your mouse over the "This is a substitute" text and move the mouse slowly to the right,past and beyond the text, you don't get this line ?

NightHawk · « **Reply #43 on:** February 26, 2009, 07:16:47 PM »

Quite correct Malcolm, I don't get anything.

Lyn and Malcolm · « **Reply #44 on:** February 26, 2009, 07:38:00 PM »

Thanks Laurie, it is very strange.

I wonder if the Vista owners can see the little boxes?

George ain't gonna be happy

Malcolm

roiphil · « **Reply #45 on:** February 26, 2009, 07:56:46 PM »

you mean this little box (sorry george) but with your knowledge and my pics and evryone else help we shall sort it

which i had not even noticed before

Seriously though thinking back when chiltern catalog was uploaded i did not get this line, it has only been since th gower catalog has been updated, and it is also affecting the imberhorne and chiltern catalogs aswell, could it be something to do with the GA040 itself ? does any one else get the line in the other catalogs ?, if i put my mouse pointer on the add item to this order button there is no line it is only when you go out of the button box

ideasguy · « **Reply #46 on:** February 26, 2009, 08:00:24 PM »

George is going doo-lah!

Just so you know.
When you add a new plant to order you get to screen GA040S14
When you View Cart, you get to one and the same screen.
Note the entirely different appearance. Lots of controls (buttons, check boxes etc) and that scrollable list!! are hidden

Next:
When you are looking at your shopping cart list in GA040S14, then click Change Quantity.
Once again, some controls are hidden, some controls are moved to a new location, some controls are resized (once again, that scrollable list)

Those controls "ghosting" as whats known In the "trade" as a memory leak.
Currently its nothing like the frustration leak I'm having!

Incidentally, lots of screens in IG Pro etc use the same programming techniques e.g. hiding buttons until required.
e.g. In lots of screens, when you edit, a Save Changes button appears. Its normally hidden.

Just to add to this, and following on from what Phil asked, I have gone through all the catalogs that George has created - all of which are still installed on my XP PC's, and I don't have any problems with errant lines appearing.

Laurie.

roiphil · « **Reply #48 on:** February 26, 2009, 08:08:06 PM »

sorry to hear your going doo lah, would bossgard helped with his window

george being a vista user i am quite happy with the free extras and these 2 more ghosty boxes

hope you dont mind the pics

Thanks for checking your end Laurie it was just a thought i had,

george i feel realy sorry for you, you worked so hard on the catalog to find this annoying line, it does not detract from the use of the catalog as everything worked fine when i did the test for you, adding to order etc, hope you get to the bottom of the problem, if you need anything checking on vista pc just shout
