SYMPTOM(s):
Character/TTY Client
Application is designed for use on Pocket PCs and therefore uses a small view-port
Entering data into Decimal or Integer fields causes the word "Insert" to appear in the bottom-right-hand corner of the view-port
The appearance of "Insert" shifts the display up one line which corrupts the layout
Using a Terminal Emulator to access the application
Entering data into Character fields does not cause "Insert" to display
CAUSE:
The appearance of "Insert" is expected behaviour and cannot be changed
FIX:
Option #1
Disable Auto/Line-wrap in the Terminal Emulator. With wrapping turned off, no new line will appear when "Insert" is displayed.
Option #2
Design the application so that the contents are displayed in the bottom-right-hand corner of the window. As the contents are already at the bottom of the screen, no shift will of the frame view will take place when "Insert" appears. Refer to solution 21393 for more information.
Option #3
Reserve a line in the display for "Insert" so that a new line is not added when the word appears.
