Hi Götz,

I am working on MacOS 14.1.1 (23B81) Sonoma, Omnis 11 xxx5659, and on Safari, Chrome AND Firefox the droplist does not scroll.

I’ll work around it in the meantime…

Best regards

Uwe

Hi Andreas,

yes, it does help – by knowing FOR SURE it doesn’t work – so I need not over strain my one brain cell ( I only have that one!), and by pointing me in the right direction. I will do a

taSuper.$getValue(pSchema,pID,pFieldName)

so I’m not limited to a predetermined field.

Thanx a lot!

Uwe

issue c) is still unsolved (probably because of this forum software’s tendency to ‘beautify’ paragraphs after ‘preformatted text’ (code blocks etc)):

How do I kindly ask Omnis to stick to system wide preferences regarding the formatting of numbers, i.e. comma as decimal separator, point as thousands separator?

[Uwe Smidt]

Dear Götz,

Yep, that worked fine!

Thank you!

Uwe

Damn… still not working!

I put

Do inherited
Calculate myVariable as $cinst.$currentlayoutbreakpoint
If $cinst.$currentlayoutbreakpoint=320
Do $cinst.$objs.native_list.$width.$assign(10)
Else If $cinst.$currentlayoutbreakpoint=768
Do $cinst.$objs.native_list.$width.$assign(100)
Else
Do $cinst.$objs.native_list.$width.$assign(0)
End If

in my remote forms $init, but $cinst.$currentlayoutbreakpoint just doesn’t do anything

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance

Uwe

Hi Michael,

This makes perfect sense – thanks for your help!

Dear $Omnis,

Do you have an update for me? We have Omnis 11 now, and when starting Omnis, there is a message ‘restoring previous IDE state’. So the basic toolkit to fulfill my wishes seems to be there…

Maybe there is a work around for me in the meantime, like having multiple config files, one for each screen setup…?

Best regards

Uwe

Yippiiieeeee!

Dear Minh Phuong,

I recently had a mis-mapping between a Postgres Servertable and an Omnis Schema on the primary key property.

I don’t know if it was a problem of the Postgres-DAM or of Postgres itself. But when I recreated the Postgres Object (via PGAdmin), in this case the table, the mis-mapping stopped, and primary was primary on both sides.

This is only a workaround, but it could help you to isolate the problem.

Best regards

Uwe

Dear Marten,

Thank you for your answer!

My wish to do it in just one line of code seems to be like ‘sawing off the tree branch on which you sit’ – so I’ll do it in 2 lines as proposed by you 😉

Best regards!

Dear Joey,

Thank you for your elaborate answer (including a great sample lib!) – so elaborate that it took me a while to evaluate 😉

But now I did – and yes, you are right, $sendallref does the trick!

Do ilExportList.$define() ## clear definition
Do ilExportList.$add()
# Alter, funktionierender Code ohne $Sendall:
# For ilColList.$line from 1 to ilColList.$linecount step 1 ## für alle Spalten...
# If ilColList.export ## NUR die markierten Spalten...
# Do ilExportList.$cols.$add(ilColList.colname,kCharacter,kSimplechar,255) ## kommen in die Spaltenüberschriften
# Calculate ilExportList.1.[ilColList.colname] as ilColList.title
# End If
# End For
Do ilColList.$sendall(ilExportList.$cols.$add($sendallref.colname,kCharacter,kSimplechar,255),$ref.export) ## ACHTUNG: hier $sendallref erforderlich, da mit ...$add eine Untermethode mit Parameter aus der Übermethode ...$sendall aufgerufen wird. Nur so wird der Parameter korrekt übergeben (byValue vs byRef)
Do ilColList.$sendall(ilExportList.1.[$ref.colname].$assign($sendallref.title),$ref.export)

Because in ilExportList.$cols.$add($sendallref.colname<font face=”inherit”> the $add sends </font>the<font face=”inherit”> parameter into another method, which is why $ref’s by Value does not work, but $sendallref’s by reference does! </font>

<font face=”inherit”>Thank you for your help in grasping an important difference!</font>

<font face=”inherit”>Best regards</font>

<font face=”inherit”>Uwe</font>

Dear Andreas,
Thank you for your great sample – I have integrated it into my library, and it works fine!

Best regards
Uwe

[Uwe Smidt]

Great, thanx Andreas!

Hi Andreas,

Thank you for your prompt answer!

So the error message refers to the Node.js port on 6102, and not the Omnis Server port which I put on 5902?

I’m not using the worker object, but where could I change Node.js port on 6102?

Thanks a lot & have a great weekend!

Uwe

Dear Götz,

Thanks for your answer.

I had hoped for an easier and more general way to display previews of any kind of file, as in MacOS’s Finder…

But this should work for PDFs!
