Hi
Thanks - that has resolved it.

Interestingly, we were not specifying this attribute in our 4st file, so it was defaulting to "modal", but under FGL 3.21 it appears to default to "dropdown".

Anyway, all good now so thanks. It helps a lot with winning the "hearts and minds" battle on our journey to a browser based solution.

What value do you use for the DateEdit calendarType presentation style attribute? https://4js.com/online_documentation/fjs-fgl-manual-html/#fgl-topics/r_fgl_presentation_styles_dateedit_style_attributes.html#r_fgl_presentation_styles_dateedit_style_attributes__row_calendarType

Hello

With GDC and FGL 3.21 and a DATEEDIT field, one could double click the image of the control and this populates the field with the current date, or expand the calendar and double click a date.

Our users have noted this behaviour is not present in GBC and FGL 5.01. They now have to open the click to open the calendar, click to select the date they want and then click OK.

It is only a minor point but they are so used to the old method, that they are constantly finding they have not selected an date.

I am wondering if anyone else has noticed this and maybe has a solution/workaround.

Many thanks

Gary

I've asked this under the Genero BDL topic, but let me ask here too:  I would love to hear any experiences people have had with using AI tools like CoPilot to generate Genro code.  What works well?  Which tools have you tried? 
Thanks.

This is still an important question to me, I'm interested in anyone's experience, however minor, with AI generated code!

Hi

Hoping to get some help, we have upgraded from 3.20.06 to 5.0.0.2 of Genero/GDC.

In V3 using Open Window to open a new form from the current window would always open into a new window allowing the user to view the parent in the background.  After upgrading to V5 all window remain in the current parent window opening open the top.

Is there a setting somewhere to change this directive. Have check FGLPROFILE and its the same setup as V3.

Thanks in advance.

There is no documented setting that you have missed.   (unless you have never used windowType="modal" to display one window above another https://4js.com/online_documentation/fjs-fgl-manual-html/#fgl-topics/r_fgl_presentation_styles_window_style_attributes_basics.html#r_fgl_presentation_styles_window_style_attributes_basics__row_windowType)

What you are experiencing is the Top Most Normal Window concept that has been in place for a while where we display the top most normal window and the top most modal window.  Have a read of  https://4js.com/ask-reuben/ig-187/ for some background.

You are not alone in that there is a subset of our user base that has ...

• never used Web or Mobile Client.
• not participated in 3.00, 3.10, 3.20, 4,00, 5.00 Early Access Programs  
• not attended or participated in WWDC events

... and are discovering these User Interface changes as result of finally moving to Universal Rendering, and coming across design decisions we made many years/releases ago.  
 
Contact your local support contact to see what we have in place for customers in a similar position to yourself.

Hi
Thanks Leo, I'll look at your component as we may have a good use case for this.

Reuben, thanks, that was the issue. We are using Apache 2.4.52 on Ubuntu, but our proxy.conf file was incorrect and had the pre 2.4.11 settings.

Gary,

You are light in details on what the front-end is, but is this a possibility https://4js.com/online_documentation/fjs-gas-manual-html/#gas-topics/c_gas_mode_proxy_fcgi_spaces_in_filenames.html

Hi Gary, works for me with  FGL 5.01.02 and httdispatch 5.01.01 ... see attached.
Try at your side and if this doesn't work with your env contact the support.

I'd like to point you for displaying PDF's "inlined" to a simple webcomponent I came up with: it doesn't open a 2nd tab and you could integrate more seamless into your workflow.
Since 4.x it works painless in GBC and GDC (exception safari mobile: only the 1st page of the pdf is displayed as an image because it seems an iframe limitation of safari mobile).
Previously pdfjs was needed to render PDFs in a Genero Form, nowadays browsers are capable of displaying their own GUI for showing PDFs in an iframe.
