How to switch between tabs in App Maker - google-app-maker

I have created a tabs widget that contains a table widget on the first tab. Whenever a record in the table widget is selected, the focus should switch from the first tab to the second tab as this contains more detailed data regarding the record. How can I implement such a script? Is there something like
app.currentpage.tabs.selectedtab = ...

To select second tab you can use this code snippet:
// Setting selected tab index to 1 since indices are zero-based.
app.currentPage.descendants.MyTabsWidgetName.selectedTab = 1;
This code can be placed in onClick event handler of the table's row.

How to make pop-up data reflect selected record?

The case:
I have Activities as datamodel.
I have set Activities to have many-to-many relationship with themselves to represent a Parent / Child relationship.
I have set up an accordion widget. Each row of the accordion contain basic data about the Activity record + some buttons.
I have set one of the button's onClick functions to open a popup, which allows me to edit the Activity detail in a form.
When I click a different record from the same accordion, the form from the popup reflects the data in the selected record.
The problem:
I have nested accordions which represent the "Child" Activities of the Parent Activity.
I have also added a similar button, which opens a popup. I can open the popup, which targets the child records, but cannot make it open the specific record, from which I pressed the button.
So the popup open by default on the first child.
Please help - how can I make the popup change naturally to reflect the datasource / selected record of even nested datasources?
What I tried:
In order to try and make to popup work I have tried to set the datasource based on the relationship:
Activities: Sub_Activities(relation)
This works to the extent of showing the related items, but popup content does not dynamically change on clicking a different child record or clicking the button from a different child record.
In both cases what is shown is the first child record.
What I understand is that you have a set up in which you click a button and a popup shows. The popup should let you view/edit the record referenced in the row where the button is. If that is the case, then probably you already have almost everything setup for the next thing to work. First, add a string custom property to the popup and name it selectedKey. Then, on the onClick event of the button that opens the popup, add something like this:
var key = widget.datasource.item._key;
app.popups.MYPOPUP.properties.selectedKey = key;
app.popups.MYPOPUP.visible = true;
Now, go to the popup content and add the following on the onAttach event handler:
var key = widget.root.properties.selectedKey;
widget.datasource.selectKey(key);
This is the general idea of how to make it work; However, in order for it to work, your datsources in the widgets should be properly set up. Good luck!

JavaFx Printing a node without displaying it

I have a TableView where each row represents a record and I have a view button beside it which creates a new view displayed in a tab with details the record and with a print button. If I hit the print everything works fine.
Now I want to add a print button to the table view row, which does create the record view and prints it but without displaying it in a new tab. The not opening in a new tab is crucial as I later will add a print all and print selected button.
The problem is, that when I want to print it without adding it to a tab an empty page gets printed.
How can I print something without displaying it?

How to add data to the grid from another selected record of another grid

I am using RowEditor plugin for my grid. Grid record has three buttons: choose,update,cancel. When I click on choose it will display another grid and user has to click on one record, then some values of that record have to display on the previous grid. How to do this ?
I am using extjs 3.0
Thanks in advance!
When you click on choose - show a modal window popup with grid. When you open that popup pass a callback into constructor of the popup. Then force user to select only one record in grid (using rowselectmodel). On itemclick even of the child grid - call your callback and pass selected data in the parent grid. Update parent's grid record with this data.
Hope I was clear.
To figure out which row the user selected, use the Ext.grid.GridPanel's SelectionModel. The default model is Ext.grid.RowSelectionModel (use selModel config setting to change the default). To grab the selected row, call myGridPanel.getSelectionModel().getSelected(). That will return an Ext.data.Record. Dig into that data to populate the original grid/store.
Thanks for your reply. I have done the required things.
How I have done is, just passed the editor to my function and using selection model, I got the values and have placed them into the editor.
val1 = selectedArray[0].get('val1');
var cm = grid.colModel, fields = editor.items.items, f, val;
f = fields[1];
f.setValue(val1);
editor.values[f.id] = val;
This makes my life easier.
But, I have another problem, after placing into the editor. I have to do validation in the afteredit event, if user clicks the update button. In the afteredit event,
afteredit: function(object, changes, record, rowIndex)
{
// I have to do validation on the changes; but its an object. How will I do it
???
}

flex tab navigator

I have a flex application mxml file with 3 tabs.the first tab having the link button to select the value in the 3rd tab.
Suppose, i have a link button in first atab. And the 3rd tab contains the combobox with values:"basic", "advanced". by default the vaule is displaying "default".
Wheni select the linkbutton on the first tab, the "advanced"should be displayed in the comboBox on the 3rd tab.
and the problem is , when click on the first tab link button , at that time the 3rd tab is not initialized.So it is not displaying the "advanced" in the comboBox. selecting the 2nd time on the link button it is displaying fine. But not first time.
code: thirdTab.comboBoxId.selectedItem.data = 1;
Please help me out if need any changes
A tab is initialized when it is activated the first time, so your code should not work.
You can separate data model and bind all the UI controls to the model.
Add an event listener to the 3rd tab that is handled by the parent of the TabNavigator. The handler for that event should be able to get the value from the first tab (which may be stored in the common parent) and return it to the 3rd tab so that the ComboBox there may be correctly set. Listen for the creationComplete event from the 3rd tab.
The dirty way is setting the creationPolicy property of your tab navigator to ContainerCreationPolicy.ALL. This will insure that all the tabs are initialized at once.
The right way is separating the model from the view and using binding as Yuras says.

Capturing Select Button on Gridview using jQuery

I have two GridViews that list out included and exclude data items respectively.
By clicking "Change Status" (a custom button for each row) Users can change the row status from included to excluded or vice versa.
However before changing the status - users would need to specify the reason and enter a date for when they want something included/excluded. So these are additional operations that need to take place after the "Change Status" button is clicked and before an update occurs.
I want to use jQuery to capture the row id being "changed", save this value and pass back the update to the database.
I will use an absolute div for the menu but I'm running into issues as to how to capture row id and how to pass this back to my C# in codebehind.
I would have a modal dialog to capture the reason and date when the user clicks the "Change" button. On each row, next to the button include a hidden field that contains the row ID, or better yet the key for the record in the db. Then when you launch your modal, use jQuery to select the hidden field next to the button to grab the key value, and submit it as part of your modal form.
the jQuery would look something like:
$(function() {
$(".changeButton").click(function() {
var rowId = $(this).siblings(":hidden").val();
$("#myModal input[name=rowId]").val( rowId );
// do modal popup
});
});
