Title: Bringing a folder tab into focus
Post by: Andy J. on May 28, 2008, 12:56:08 pm
Hi,

Is there a command to bring a folder tab into focus?  I am using a number of folders in a "DIALOG / END DIALOG" block.  I am unable to find anything in the documentation.

Many thanks in advance

Even though it has been a long time, here is another new way in 2.30 to answer that question:

Laurent,

IMHO the next method down in the documentation ensureElementVisible() is the better method to use for the folder page problem https://4js.com/online_documentation/fjs-fgl-2.30.01-manual-html/User/ClassForm.html#ensureElementVisible

In your form, name the page elements e.g.

PAGE pageonename (TEXT="Page One")

... and then use the new ensureElementVisible() method passing the name you have assigned to the page e.g.

DEFINE f ui.Form

CALL f.ensureElementVisible("pageonename")

... that way the code is referring to the folder page you want on top, not an arbitrary field on the page as with ensureFieldVisible.
