Odd event with Rotate ActiveX

L

Lulu

I'm using Lebans' way-cool Rotate ActiveX control. But I have an odd event
happening. I make a control. I type text at Caption property.Then if I move
that control elsewhere on the page, the caption drifts up or down within the
control. So, say I make a control at Left: 3". Then I move by drag that
control to Left:5". The caption inside has drifted to the bottom (or beyond)
of the right edge of the object. And if I drag by mouse to the Left: 1" then
the caption drifts to the left edge (or beyond) of the object.

Also, depending on where I place the object, if I enable the hairline border
the caption disappears entirely. This does not always occur. Just if I have
the object to the extreme left or right edge of the page.

Anyone else had this experience and how did you solve it?

Thanks for your ideas.

Access, as an ActiveX host container, has a few display bugs that popup
from time to time. Generally it is when you place the ActiveX control on
the Page of a Tab control, or on a form without Header/Footer sections.

THe bug you describe, is it only in Design view? That is when you switch
from design to Form view does the display bug disappear? A Design view
only bug is irrelevant.
