PROBLEM:
When I set the fontweight of my dbform object, the label is shown in the same weight but a part of the text is truncated. It looks like the size is not calculated correctly.
ANSWER:
This is one of the properties where the order in setting them is important. The fontweight must be set BEFORE the label property is being set. Since the label is set via the object properties dialog and fontweight isn't, the line "Set FontWeight To 1000" MUST be code before the green line in Code Explorer.
Set Fontweight to 700
/* DO NOT REMOVE THIS LINE: IDE GENERATED CODE WILL GO HERE */
Another solution is to set the label again. So:
/* DO NOT REMOVE THIS LINE: IDE GENERATED CODE WILL GO HERE */
Set Fontweight to 1000
Set Label To (Label (Self))
That is, of course, less elegant.
