Need help with a DIV inside a UX

When I make the target a pop-up window my mapped controls go over ...when I make the target a DIV they don't. What am I missing??

for the target popup window there is size property width and height. if you remove them and leave them blank, the popup window will adjust the size to fit the controls.

I mean that the data in from the control map isn't populating (sorry if I wasn't clear)....For example: One of the mapped controls is "MRNum". When my target is a pop-up window the data is populated. If I change the target to DIV that data doesn't populate.

I can make a video if that would help...

Re: Need help with a DIV inside a UX

would you use the second option
open a dialog to edit the current record
as opposed to the third one you have selected open ux as an alternate to edit the current record?

There doesn't appear to be a control map in the other UX options that's why I picked this one.... I need data from a few fields in the original UX to populate over to the popup UX. I still rather have it in a DIV. Alpha made a DIV option but it doesn't seem to work unless I'm missing something else.

The issue here is that the target options, other than Window, are not supposed to be there. The genie will be changed to catch that and let you know what to select. That's why the other options wouldn't work.

bummer .... I preferred the DIV option over a popup window.

I know that Action is great to use, but would you want to use a different action, open the UX in a DIV and populate it yourself? That's possible to do. I agree about the DIV or a Panel etc... keeps things contained.

Re: Need help with a DIV inside a UX

I don't really know how to do that. Is there some code you could share?

Here is what I have: A data bound UX (SQL) with a DIV (the DIV was created using a static text field). I want to press a button that opens another UX (for new record entry) in that DIV. And of course some fields from the first UX need to populate into my second UX.

Re: Need help with a DIV inside a UX

What happens when that new record is created and submitted? Should it be available to the data bound parent UX?

And... are you using PanelCards?

The second UX uses it's own separate SQL table. It's saved by the standard "submit" button alpha generates. When a new record is successfully saved a JavaScript alert window pops up telling the user the record was saved and that the window will now close.

No panel cards.

Re: Need help with a DIV inside a UX

This should work out without changing your existing Child UX too much. This example uses PanelCards and the Parent and Child UX use the same table... but neither will make any difference.

onRenderComplete code

{dialog.object}.newRecord();

afterAjaxCallbackComplete code

if (e.xbasicFunctionName == 'system:newRecord'){

	var pObj = {dialog.Object}.getParentObject();
	if (pObj){

		setTimeout(function(){		
			var currCmpy = pObj.getValue('COMPANY');
			{dialog.Object}.setValue('COMPANY', currCmpy);
		},300);
		
	}	
	
}
