Active Window?
jdegrendele:
Trying to determine why a nomads panel (or character window for that matter) when launched from a program and/or our menu will not come up as the active window. Panel appears correctly, however we have to click somewhere on the panel in order for it to receive focus. Working in version 17.1, trying to move application to Azure server with access via browser. Application works correctly on current Windoz server with access to app via RDP. Azure server is running Windows Server 2022. We are not using Windx (at the moment). Questions are: Is this something that has been run across before? Is there a way to force focus to a window after it has been drawn on the screen? We've looked at 'GOTO' mneumonic but are having trouble determining the correct window ID value to place in this command (tried using *winapi;findwindow" without any luck.
Mike King:
Have you tried using the SET_FOCUS command?
jdegrendele:
We did. We feel it might be how the O/S is interacting with our app (or PxPlus in general). We've deployed on an Azure server before however that server is running 2019 server versus 2022 server. We've been able to run the application without the focus issue when connecting to the Azure server via an RDP session. It's only when we use a browser (doesn't matter which one we've tried them all) to connect to the Azure workstation environment and start our application from an icon there that we experience the focus issue. Instead of us fighting a Microsoft Server version problem we were hoping to just insert some code in our program(s) to force focus to a window after it has been drawn.
Mike King:
You say you connecting using a browser. What software package is the browser using to run your application? Are you using iNomads?
Since it appears that the application works when using native Windows or RDP then whatever you are using is not replicating a native environment correctly.
jdegrendele:
Mike, we're moving the app over to another Azure server that will be running Server 2019 (just to see if we're having some sort of compatibility issue) We're not using iNomads. Users connect to the Azure system thru their browser and are served up a remote desktop with specific icons on it. Will provide feedback and more info next week.
