We use a page control to step through a selection process from orders to products. The first tab shows a list of orders, the second tab shows a list of products for the selected order, and the 3rd tab contains a list of properties for the selected product.
If the user choose an order with only 1 product, we want to skip tab 2 and go straight to tab 3 to show the properties of the sole product.
I thought this could be done by setting the NewPage property of the PageChanging event, but it doesn't. What is a better way? To set the ActivePageIndex within the PageChanging event instead?
I would hide the tabs so the user cannot select them at all, and then use a pair of buttons to move back and forth between the pages as needed. When the user is on page 1 and is ready to move to the next page, the button handler can decide which page to show next.

Using Adobe Captivate 9. I have a text box which changes states to show different info on a single slide.
On the slide there is a forward and back button which changes the state of the text box. When clicking the next button on the last state it goes back to the first state. Is there a way to prevent this? Or hide the next button when on the final state.
You can build an advanced action to control moving through the state. First creat a variable that equals 0. Second create an advanced action that adds 1 to the variable each time you click the the next button to move through the state (-1 for the previous button). On a new tab in the advanced action, create a conditional action (if variable = number of clicks to get to last state, then hide button). Do the same for the previous button (if variable = 0, then hide previous button). You will also want one to show the buttons (if variable is not equal to 0, then show previous button) and (if variable is not equal to number of clicks, then show next button).
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!
I have a list of items with Actions drop-down for each item in the left-section of page. I also have a right rail which displays a different component based on action type selected. I'm using aux-route to accomplish this.
One of the Action the user can take is "edit" where in a form is displayed to edit the metadata of the list item. While editing, user can click on + button next to some of the input field to add another input field dynamically.
Now my problem is, when the edit-form is open for a list item and I click edit on another item in the list, I wanted my edit-component to be re-instantiated.
Because the aux-route is same for all the list items for edit-action, edit-view is not instantiated once again. Is there a way to achieve it?
Right now fixed it with RouteReuseStrategy
Is it possible to detect selected row index with force touch? Did force touch in tableView current row is highlighted. But i can't take info about him when context menu appears. TableView method -didSelectRowAtIndex: not called with this event.
The only thing you can handle programmatically with the Force Touch is the Context Menu and this menu is associated with a specific controller, more information you will find following the link.
About the row highlighting: When you start tapping the system doesn't know what the real action is - the regular touch or the force one. So it is starting to highlight a specific area and only later find out what was the action.
When I add a drop-dialog to a list page, the drop dialog drops down when I click on it, but does not disappear when I click somewhere else.
I am trying to add my own drop-dialog, but I can reproduce this issue with standard Dynamics AX objects. I guess I am just missing some property on an object, but I just cannot figure out which one.
If you want to reproduce my problem in order to solve it, do the following:
Create a new Form. (Form 1)
Change the FormTemplate property to ListPage (Click on Yes)
Add the query MainAccountListPage to the DataSources
Create an ActionPanTab.
Add a Drop-dialog button with the menu item MainAccountListPageBalanceParameters.
Save and open the new List page by right clicking and choosing open. (or open the menu item)
In my case, when I click on Parameters, the drop dialog drops down. When I then click outside the drop-dialog, it disappears as it should.
Create a new display menu item. Set the object to the new list page (Form 1)
Drag the Menu item to any menu. I added mine to General ledger (Common)
Restore, open new workspace. Click on the new menu item in the general ledger menu.
Click on “parameters” and click outside the drop dialog.
When I do this the drop dialog does not disappear again. You can see this same drop dialog working fine on the Main Accounts list page. I have tried changing properties on both menu items, on the menu, on the form etc. I have tried different drop dialogs and different list pages. It always works on the details page and when opened from the AOT.
Am I missing a property? Is the entire way I am adding the drop dialog wrong?
The answer to the above example is.. add the MainAccountDetailPart Form part to the list page's (Form1) Parts.
With my other example, EcoResProductPerCompanyListPage, I had to add the EcoResProductVariantsPerCompanyFactBox to Parts.
I have no idea why this is, but adding a part to a list page fixes the drop dialogs. For example, adding MainAccountDetailPart Form part to a new list page not only fixes the MainAccountListPageBalanceParameters in my example, but it also fixes any other drop dialog that previously did not want to close. Removing the part the breaks all the drop dialogs in the list page again.
Thanks, FH-Inway, for the suggestion, I would have never have found the answer without your method. The solution really surprised me!
