How to identify next panel H5Script.

Legacy Contributor

I am adding script in ARS191 to disable the checkboxes, so users can't enter value in there. However, when I click next, the control goes to MNS212, because checkboxes are disabled, the field does not get passed in the payload. 

I tried disabling the fields in onRequested, but by the time payload is already delivered. My sequence is below.

1. ARS191

2. Press first enter, that will disable the checkboxes, but you still see ARS191.

3. Then press 2nd enter, and if all the values are correct, then it goes to MNS212 panel. 

4. After 2nd enter, and before going to MNS212, I need to disable the checkboxes.

If I disable it in onRequesting, then after first enter, users can still click on it and change values. If I disable it in on Requested, then the payload is already delivered without those checkbox fields, so even if I enable them later, it doesn't matter. 

Any ideas on how to re-send the payload, after disabling the checkboxes Or how to identify that there are no issues in ARS191 panel & the control is all set to go to MNS212?

Hi Veena,

Not sure if I understood your requirement correctly.

But you can try to use the below logic.

1. When first enter is pressed set value as flag (flag = true) in cache.

2. When second enter is pressed check if the value of flag in cache is true?

at the start this.checked will be false (inside init method) and also take another flag to check if it first enter or second enter.

in onRequesting method 

here you will need to use args.cancel = true to avoid program going to next panel

if (args.commandType === "KEY" && args.commandValue === "ENTER" && !this.checked) {

args.cancel = true

check the value of flag in cache to find if it is 1st or 2nd enter.

if first enter {

store value in cache set flag as true 

}

if second enter {

disable the checkboxes and set the value of this.checked to true and use this.controller.PressKey to programmaticaly press enter and allow to go to next panel.

this.checked = true; (As now this.checked is set to true in onRequesting method it will not come inside the condition)

clear the flag value in cache.
this.controller.PressKey("ENTER");

}

}

Hope I was able to explain it 

Thanks,
