At design time, modifying any property of a control selected on the parent form selects a control on an inherited form if the parent form contains TdxWizardControl and/or TdxRibbonBackstageView

created 11 years ago

I have form A with a ribbon and form B which is inherited from form A.
When I changed some property in Form A (f.ex. the caption of a ribbon tab), then Delphi switches to form B and I have to reactivate form A if I want to continue there. If form B is visible, then Delphi brings this one into the foreground. If form B is not visible but the source code .PAS is open in the IDE, then the property grid switches to form B (?). Only if form B is not open in the IDE then it works. When you reopen it, all changes in form A are inherited.

Even worse: if the form has a RibbonBackstageView and there you have a button somewhere, then the following happens. If you want to change the caption of this button in form A, then it switches to form B right after the first character and the typing continues in the form(!) caption of form B! So you can type only a single character into the button of form A and you damage the form caption of form B.

Any ideas?
Thanks
Stephan
