Title: save control 0
Post by: John Spencer on April 30, 2020, 05:29:29 PM
Hello:

We have used the save control 0 to bitmap.bmp on rev 10.2 - no issues.

We are now upgrading to V15 and have discovered that this no longer works. We know that the pvx.ini / pxplus.ini files can be written to by adjusting screen size/values from within the app. I am curious as to what is preventing the save control 0 from working. It currently writes to the location where Windx is installed (on V10).

I believe this has to do with new client side security in Windx but am at a loss as to how to fix it.

I can save the screens to another location ([wdx]\whatever) outside of the standard Wdx but not where they previously were saved. Thank you.

Check the permissions on the workstation for the directory where WindX was installed.

Never versions of Windows often set any directory where software is installed to read only as a security precaution so you may need to change the targeted destination for the BMP.

I tried adjusting permissions to no avail. I think a new location may be the best method to use.

Thanks Mike.
