{grid.Object}.refreshRow(rowNum)

[Peter.Greulich]

I want to refresh whichever row the user has just updated. How do I get the rowNum?

Peter,

Would placing the refresh code in the afterRowSubmit event achieve the result you are looking for? You don't then specifically need to know the rowNum.

Yes. That's the event that I am using. But I DO need the row number - I get an error message w. respect to row number not known

e.existingRowsRendered

Thanks for the suggestion, Chad. Tried it - no dice.

try
{grid.Object}.refreshRow({Grid.RowNumber})

Re: {grid.Object}.refreshRow(rowNum)

{grid.Object}.refreshRow({Grid.RowNumber})

Nope. Error message says "Expected ":"

But thanks.

where are you placing the code?

The rowNumber parameter is not available for this event, but you can get it easily:

In the Javascript function declaration section, define a new variable such as

var rn=0;

In the canRowSubmit, which does make the rowNumber parameter available, write

rn=e.rowNumber;

And finally, in the event you are using , i.e.
afterRowSubmit, use the variable. i.e.

alert(rn);

Note that afterRowSubmit only fires after the user has clicked the submit row button in a Grid row and not the submit button for the whole grid.

Hope this helps

Peter I have used that in the AfterGridSubmit event under Javascript - System Events and it does seem to just refresh the row whith the dirty records. It works when you have just one submit button since I am not using individual row submits I don't know if it would work in that case.

Re: {grid.Object}.refreshRow(rowNum)

Isn't there already an option under update options to do that automatically?

Yes. See the thumbnail provided.

Re: {grid.Object}.refreshRow(rowNum)

Wolfgang - still won't work. None of the other methods work, except pressing F5 or going to another page in the grid and coming back again. BTW: all I am trying to do is change the conditional style of a field based upon another field's value. Conditional style level is set to "both".

I see what you mean. Don't know if this is an option, but if you follow the advice from NoeticCC & parri2bd and set the Row refresh method after edits to FullPage, it should work. At least it worked for a simple example I did setting the background color of a field depending on the value of another field.
Using any other setting for this property does not work.

OK. Thanks Wolfgang and everyone else. Full Page works. I was trying to avoid a re-fetch of the entire page, but I guess I have no choice. Wonder if this qualifies as a bug?

with Alpha you always seem to have a choice. You can avoid a re-fetch of the page. Just use a watch event for the field whos value you want to survey, then use javascript and the appropriate helper function to set the other field's style. For example, I have the following code in the watch event:

if (*gv('LNAME')=='Bond'){
*ss('FNAME','color:red;')
}
else{
*ss('FNAME','color:black;')
};

It simply checks if the last name is "Bond" and sets the style of the first name field to red color, else to black color. You can set any CSS you want. It is important to define both styles, i.e. use an if then else to include both possibilities. This does not refresh the whole page. The helper functions *ss() and *gv() etc. are all explained in the property window.
