Not able to always resize columns in the dashboard query

PAGE NUMBER 12707MPS



PROBLEM DESCRIPTION

Not able to always

resize columns in the dashboard query.



PROGRAM ID: lib/dashbrdframe.w



SOFTWARE

AND DATABASE INFO:



STEPS TO DUPLICATE:

1. From the Vantage

main screen > click View > Favorites bar.



2. The Favorites

bar will come up on the left.



3. If no dashboard queries

already exist, add one to the list by right clicking inside

the favorite bar and choose Item Maintenance.



4. In the

maintenance box select Add to display the Favorite Item Maintenance

box.



5. Click the Type dropdown to change it from Windows

to Dashboard Query.



6. Input a description > then click

the File search to display Export queries that have been created

thru the Business Activity Manager.



7. Select one of them

and click OK to save. Click OK again back on the Favorite Item

Maintenance screen, your new record has now been added to the

Group Item Maintenance box.



8. Close out of this box,

and your new item icon now displays in the Favorites bar.



9.

Double click it open to run the query and display the results

onscreen.



10. Click inside the results box someplace to select

it, which puts squares along the outside edge and in each corner.





11. At this point, you can go inside this box, put the pointer

on any line separating a column and drag it right or left to

resize it. Usually this works, but sometimes it wont, this

will just drag the whole box back and forth instead.



12. But

if you first resize the whole box by dragging on one of the

little squares on the outside edge first, then go back inside

the box to resize one column, it usually will not work. Drag

on one of the column separator lines and the whole box moves.





13. You have to click around a lot on other items, possibly

open and close other items from the favorites bar, before resizing

columns back in your query results output above will work.





14. See this on MNTECH 6.10.514 with the Favorites bar open,

click on the icons titled bob, resize test, or Resize2 to see

the above behavior.
