Enables a component to stick to a specific side of form and/or to
grow or shrink when a window is resized.
If opposite anchors are activated then the component with grow or
shrink with the window. For example if Top and Bottom are activated,
then the component will grow/shrink when the window is vertically
resized. If Left and Right are activated then the component
will grow/shrink when the window is horizontally resized.
If opposite anchors are not activated, then the component will
keep a constant distance from the sides of the window which
correspond to the activated anchors. |

|
|
A String representing a group ID for this component. If several
components have the same group ID then they belong to the same
group of components. Using the group itself, all components can
be disabled/enabled or made invisible/visible.
The group id should be a javascript compatible identifier to allow access of the group in scripting. |
|

application.output('modified width: ' + field.width);
application.output('modified height: ' + field.height);
|
|
|
|
|
The name of the component. Through this name it can also accessed in methods. |
|
Sample

var label = form.newLabel('Label', 10, 10, 150, 150);
label.name = 'myLabel'; // Give a name to the component.
forms['someForm'].controller.show()
// Now use the name to access the component.
forms['someForm'].elements['myLabel'].text = 'Updated text';
|
|
|
|
|
Method to be executed when the selected tab is changed in the tab panel or divider position is changed in split pane. |

|
|
|
|
|
Enables an element to resize based on its content and/or move when printing.
The component can move horizontally or vertically and can grow or shrink in
height and width, based on its content and the content of neighboring
components. |
|
Sample
var form = solutionModel.newForm('printForm', 'example_data', 'parent_table', 'null', false, 400, 300);
var slidingLabel = form.newLabel('Some long text here', 10, 10, 5, 5);
slidingLabel.printSliding = SM_PRINT_SLIDING.GROW_HEIGHT | SM_PRINT_SLIDING.GROW_WIDTH;
slidingLabel.background = 'gray';
forms['printForm'].controller.showPrintPreview();
|
|
|
|
|
Flag that tells if the component should be printed or not when the form is printed.
By default components are printable. |
|
Sample
var form = solutionModel.newForm('printForm', 'example_data', 'parent_table', 'null', false, 400, 300);
var printedField = form.newField('parent_table_text', JSField.TEXT_FIELD, 10, 10, 100, 20);
var notPrintedField = form.newField('parent_table_id', JSField.TEXT_FIELD, 10, 40, 100, 20);
notPrintedField.printable = false; // This field won't show up in print preview and won't be printed.
forms['printForm'].controller.showPrintPreview()
|
|
|
|
|
Flag that tells how to arrange the tabs if they don't fit on a single line.
If this flag is set, then the tabs will stay on a single line, but there will
be the possibility to scroll them to the left and to the right. If this flag
is not set, then the tabs will be arranged on multiple lines. |
|
Sample
var tabPanel = form.newTabPanel('tabs', 10, 10, 200, 200);
tabPanel.newTab('tab1', 'Child Two', childOne, parentToChild); // The first form uses the relation.
tabPanel.newTab('tab2', 'Child Two', childTwo);
tabPanel.scrollTabs = true;
|
|
|
|
|
The name of the style class that should be applied to this component.
When defining style classes for specific component types, their names
must be prefixed according to the type of the component. For example
in order to define a class names 'fancy' for fields, in the style
definition the class must be named 'field.fancy'. If it would be
intended for labels, then it would be named 'label.fancy'. When specifying
the class name for a component, the prefix is dropped however. Thus the
field or the label will have its styleClass property set to 'fancy' only. |
|
Sample
var form = solutionModel.newForm('printForm', 'example_data', 'parent_table', 'null', false, 400, 300);
var field = form.newField('parent_table_text', JSField.TEXT_FIELD, 10, 10, 100, 20);
var style = solutionModel.newStyle('myStyle','field.fancy { background-color: yellow; }');
form.styleName = 'myStyle'; // First set the style on the form.
field.styleClass = 'fancy'; // Then set the style class on the field.
|
|
|
|
|
The position of the tabs related to the tab panel. Can be one of TOP, RIGHT, BOTTOM, LEFT,
HIDE, SPLIT_HORIZONTAL, SPLIT_VERTICAL. The HIDE option makes the tabs invisible, SPLIT_HORIZONTAL
makes the tab panel horizontal split pane, SPLIT_VERTICAL makes the tab panel vertical split pane. |
|
Sample
var tabPanel = form.newTabPanel('tabs', 10, 10, 620, 460);
tabPanel.newTab('tab1', 'Child Two', childOne, parentToChild); // The first form uses the relation.
tabPanel.newTab('tab2', 'Child Two', childTwo);
// The SM_ALIGNMENT constants TOP, RIGHT, BOTTOM and LEFT can be used to put the
// tabs into the needed position. Use SM_DEFAULTS.NONE to hide the tabs.
// The SM_ALIGNMENT constants SPLIT_HORIZONTAL, SPLIT_VERTICAL can be used to create a split pane
// where the first tab will be left component and the second tab will the right component.
tabPanel.tabOrientation = SM_ALIGNMENT.BOTTOM;
|
|
|
|
|
An index that specifies the position of the component in the tab sequence. The components
are put into the tab sequence in increasing order of this property. A value of 0 means
to use the default mechanism of building the tab sequence (based on their location on the form).
A value of -2 means to remove the component from the tab sequence. |
|
Sample
// Create three fields. Based on how they are placed, by default they will come one
// after another in the tab sequence.
var fieldOne = form.newField('parent_table_id', JSField.TEXT_FIELD, 10, 10, 100, 20);
var fieldTwo = form.newField('parent_table_text', JSField.TEXT_FIELD, 10, 40, 100, 20);
var fieldThree = form.newField('parent_table_id', JSField.TEXT_FIELD, 10, 70, 100, 20);
// Set the third field come before the first in the tab sequence, and remove the
// second field from the tab sequence.
fieldOne.tabSeq = 2;
fieldTwo.tabSeq = SM_DEFAULTS.IGNORE;
fieldThree.tabSeq = 1;
|
|
|
|
|
Flag that tells if the component is transparent or not.
The default value is "false", that is the components
are not transparent. |
|
Sample
// Load an image from disk an create a Media object based on it.
var imageBytes = plugins.file.readFile('d:/ball.jpg');
var media = solutionModel.newMedia('ball.jpg', imageBytes);
// Put on the form a label with the image.
var image = form.newLabel('', 10, 10, 100, 100);
image.imageMedia = media;
// Put two fields over the image. The second one will be transparent and the
// image will shine through.
var nonTransparentField = form.newField('parent_table_text', JSField.TEXT_FIELD, 10, 20, 100, 20);
var transparentField = form.newField('parent_table_text', JSField.TEXT_FIELD, 10, 50, 100, 20);
transparentField.transparent = true;
|
|
|
|
|
