Set Page fields Visible & not Visible during runtime??

Votuc

Hi,

I know I started a similar post but I don't think I explained my problem in the right words.

I want to know if it is possible to set fields on a PAGE visible and not visible based on the TYPE of record I am viewing. I want to do this while moving through the records by clicking the "next record" action from the action menu.

So: view one type of records.... fields 1-8 visible......move to next record (of different type based on condition) and now set fields 1-8 NOT visible and set fields 9-15 visible instead.

Is this possible?

I tried setting the field visible property to a boolean variable called isvisible. Then under the properties of isvisible, I set "include in dataset" to yes. Then I had a function to test the condition I want and set the variable isvisible to true --- like so:

if condition is met....
isvisible = true;
currPage.update(false);

But it does not work. None of the fields visible property changes.

Is the version R2? I read about the same problem in R2 here in another thread. It seems like in R2 you can only set visibility on a Group not on a field. I haven't tried it myself but you could try wrap a group around the field and set that ones visibility as a workaround.

But did you actually set the Visible property on each of the text boxes?

Hi, sorry I meant to say I set the field property "visible" as a varible called isvisible instead of true/false. I was using this post as an example: http://www.mibuso.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=32&t=33236&hilit=visiblE+property+in+RTC

@Votuc:
As DeV.ch said

It seems like in R2 you can only set visibility on a Group not on a field.

the visibility property will work on Groups.

As per your requirement, set 1-8 fields in Group1 and 9-15 in Group2.

Create a Boolean(IsgrpVisible) variable and set IncludeInDataset to Yes

Write IsgrpVisible = (your condition) in OnOpenPage() and OnAfterGetRecord()

Set Group Visible = IsgrpVisible

It will work while moving through the records by clicking the "next record" action from the action menu.

If you want it in field wise in same group, you can assign boolean variable to visible property of field but it will work only you open the Record not while moving through the records by clicking the "next record" action from the action menu.

Hi,

The Visible property only works in OnOpenPage and OnInit trigger, so after open the page in runtime is not posible to modify the property.
The properties Enable and Editable works perfectly :thumbsup:

In Nav 2013 the property Visible works also ok! =D>

Regargs.
