[DUG] status bar not bottoming on high resolution

[Traci Sumpter]

Try looking at the creation order (Z order)

Paul,

I recall that when I was writing the code to save/restore splitter
properties, I found that the order had to be differetn based on teh
alignment of the splitter..

Hi all

Have not completely exhausted tracking this problem, but thought there might
be a quick answer out there.
When total form height goes from 738 to 739 pixels my status bar no longer
sits on the bottom of the form but goes above a pagecontrol which has
alignment alBottom. Naturally, this looks bizarre. Because there is
splitter, the status bar can then happily be resized! 738 is only 30 off
768, which may be significant? This problem appears when I close the app
which saves the form size in an ini. I then start it again, when it is
positioned and sized the same as it was last time. It may be a timing thing
to do with the order of component creation, but why would it only be daft
when the form height is greater than that particular height boundary?

D5 standard. Same problem on win2000 and XP. Screen res 1280 X 1028. Problem
occurs when running alone and within the IDE.

Thanks
Paul
