Scroll / Seek to end of data grid

Hi,

We have a strange situation where the simple act of adding an H5 script to a panel, causes the panel to always return to display the first row at the top (after adding a new record), instead of the last row as M3 does natively when there is no script attached.

Specifically, on OIS101 (quick entry), after adding a new CO order line, the attributes ATS101 appears. We then press F3 to return to OIS101. With no script attached, the last row appears at the bottom of the visible data grid, in the first example, this is line 23:

When we attach an H5 script, even if this has absolutely nothing inside the run statement, after return from the attributes screen to the order lines, the data grid reverts to showing the first row at the top, obscuring the last line added. When there are orders with many lines, this means the user doesn't see the last line added, unless they scroll down after ever line added.

I'm guessing this has something to do with the way M3 handles have a script attached to a pane - but has anyone worked out how to allow a script to be attached, and still show the bottom of the data grid after adding a new record?

Thanks in advance,

Iain

Hi all,

Just for future reference if anyone else has this issue, it turns out to be a bug with the M3 UI adapter, which Cloud are going to fix by upgrading our version.

Cheers,

Strange! I have made several scripts for OIS101/B, and never meet the problem.

But never the less. Maybe you can abuse the | last Page | button which is equivalent to F21. Then in some way add a keypress to your Script before/after your code: this.controller.PressKey("F21"); If the script is re-launched you will need to handle that. In order not to have a loop.

Hi,

Thanks for your reply. That's an interesting solution and one that I hadn't thought of. It might be the best option, but unfortunately still not ideal, as the Last Page function filters the grid, which means if the users want to scroll back up they need to first manually delete the grid filter, press enter, then scroll up. I know it doesn't seem like a big deal but with the volume of data entry each extra step can add up.

Investigating further, it seems to be related to the MainController.loadScript function (in mformsmin.js), which is being called after my script has completed. It seems that this function isn't called when there is no script, which makes sense.

You can force the skip to last record if needed.

M3 has many problems with record position in grid after return from another painel fori instance.

use a function like this one to control positon (used in OIS300)

this.setGridTopRecord = function (grid, force, posRow) {
if (grid && grid.getData().getLength()) {
if (force || !getListView().SelectedItem().length) {
grid.setSelectedRows([0]);
}
else {
if (posRow) {
grid.scrollRowIntoView(getListView().SelectedItem()[0], true);
}
}
}
}

call as setGridTopRecord(this.grid, !1, !0)
