RE: 'DISPLAY AT' ISSUE

Hi.
            5 years ago I already had a similar problem. Since then the sleep(1) instrution remains in the program. But again, I did not try to remove it when using a newer version of BDL.

Nuno

Assunto: [fourjs-users] 'DISPLAY AT' ISSUE
 
Hi,
 
I presently have a problem with a 'DISPLAY AT' segment (character mode). 
 
Here's an example of the code before modification:
 
========================================================
OPEN WINDOW my_window AT 3,3 WITH 21 rows, 76 columns
            ATTRIBUTE (border, message line first, prompt line last)
 
OPEN FORM my_form....
 
## DO WHAT I HAVE TO DO IN MY FORM
 
CLOSE FORM my_form
 
CLEAR WINDOW my_window
 
DISPLAY my_text CLIPPED AT row, col
==========================================================
 
The problem is that in 4GL (RDS), this DISPLAY statement works fine. 
With 4Js, my_text will not show but the execution of the program continues
Now, if I put a 'SLEEP 1' statement after the DISPLAY then my_text shows on screen.  
 
Did anyone encounter this problem before? 
 
Thanks
 
Francois
