Problem With Popup

[tlemar]

I am having a issue with a popup window that does not show up until I return to the main page.  I implemented a script that loads the popup using PopupModal(0).  I use the same script for each graph page. They all work correctly in design time, but in run time, several of the popups will not appear until you until I return to  the main screen of my program.  If I push the button to load the popup three times, I will get three instatnces of the popup when I return to the main page.  I does not happen on every page but is consistent on which pages that it happens. I am using the most current build of 5.91.

Calling Code

Display_Graph_Range("GW", "XY")

First let me ask: do you initialize the graphs on those pages by quickly going to that page once at startup?

 

Second, can you create a simple app that demonstrates the issue?

[tlemar]

1. No I don't.  Should I have a script that goes to each on startup?   I have 8 to 10 distinct graphs in this application.  

 

2. Not sure it would help.  It seems to work fine during development.  Just seems to happen once it is reading channels.  

 

I can send you the file privately if it will help.  

 

I use the same code on several sites. It works fine on a majority of them but I have notice this issue on several pages lately.  

[AzeoTech]

1. you need it for web pages and capture().  I don't remember if you need it for popups.  I think so.

 

2. I wonder if in development you are inadvertently going to these pages before popup so basically doing what I suggest in #1.  When you go to runtime, the popup happens first.

 

Make sure you are on the most current build.  Its in the same location and has been recently updated.

[tlemar]

Can you tell me the best way to initialize these pages?  Is there a specific order I should use? 

[AzeoTech]

Just do this in your auto-start:

 

page.strCurrentPage = "firstGraphPage"

delay(0.1)

page.strCurrentPage = "secondGraphPage"

delay(0.1)

// etc..

page.strCurrentPage = "mainPage"

[tlemar]

Tried your suggestion.  No luck.  I have a screen capture that depicts issues.  It is to big to attach.  Please provide an email address and I will forward it to you.
