I get pictures like this quite often (1.0.26.0):

The screen doesn't redraw properly when calling up from minimized state when the variables are empty. In the picture above there are four lines of variable but instead of displaying nothing for empty variables, it displays whatever is on the screen at the point of calling NetRemote from minimized state.

Are you, per chance, using the AvidUtils button types for showing scrolling text there?

Just want to check to see if this is an error in NetRemote base, or the AvidUtils buttons when used with NetRemote.

Yes, how did you guess? :wink:

Also, are you using a reasonably up-to-date version of AvidUtils? There was a problem with scrolling text I fixed a while back. The most recent release is available for download on this thread: http://www.promixis.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=11080. Just replace the DLL in the plug-ins folder with the appropriate one from the distribution.

It would be good if you could try this, as I guess Ben will be including this version in a NetRemote release soon, ready for when Designer becomes public. If there's still a problem, it might be nice to fix it beforehand.

Even with the latest AvidUtils I still get the same problem.
