Ribbon messing up until system restart (1 Viewer)

[speakers_86]

I have a custom ribbon that shows or enables controls depending on what form is open. Occasionally, the wrong controls are shown and the enabled state is not correct. After a reboot, the issue is resolved. Does anyone have any idea what could cause this?

Are you sure your "application" recognize/discovers which form is open, (missing focus to the form)?

I'm not sure what's going on. I kind of suspect it's just something with this terminal. I've never seen it on my dev pc. As I said, a reboot fixes the problem, so it seems like the answer to your question is yes.

Giving a little more detail, I have a default ribbon used to open forms. Once a form is opened, there is a different ribbon that has all the same stuff as the previous ribbon plus has record navigation. When the issue is seen, the so called default ribbon is there, when I open a form, I still have the default ribbon. When I close the form, then I see the ribbon with the record navigation. Of course, I see no reason for that to happen.

Even if this is a coding problem, restarting the database should resolve the issue, but it does not.

on closing the form, have you set the variable that makes the record navigation go away?

Yes, like I said, it typically works fine. I've only seen this issue twice, and a computer restart fixes it.
