Toma GromCHECKBOX on GROUPBOX visual problem

Hello, dear colleagues!

When intalling my xBase++ program onto a new computer, I encountered a 
strange graphical problem.
Because I am working with eXpress libraries, I will describe it through this 
language.

Objects as DCRADIO and DCCHECKBOX, that are placed on DCGROUP object, become 
unreadable, or even completely dark colored, as it can be seen from 
attachment. The others, that are placed directly on the main window area, 
are all right.

On other computers with Win XP, WIN 7, Win 8.1 it looks o.k.
There must be some mismatch with graphical card in connection to xBase++ 
graphical libraray, obviousely.

References
Program:     Xbase++ (R) Version 1.90.331
                eXPress++ (c) Version 1.9.249

OS:            Win7 64
Comp.:        ASUS Intel I3, integrated graphics

If somebdoy had symilar problem, please give me some advice, because our 
system administrators can not find desirable answer and solution to this.

Best regards
Toma

Toma¾,

This is a known problem with version 1.90.331 (and below) and was fixed in 
1.90.355 SL-1 (actually in Hotfix Rollup #22 for Xbase++ 1.90.355). It is 
(partially) described in PDR 109-6125, which also gives a workaround. I 
don't know if that workaround will work for you, but the sensible thing to 
do would be to update to Xbase++ Version 1.90.355 (aka Service Level 1), 
which should be a free update and will fix all sorts of problems, especially 
with regard to newer OS versions.
