SOME ENCHANCEMENTS TO BROWSES
Browses HTML Bubble Help Browse columns now have bubble help. The bubble help can be defined using HTML syntax and can include data from the current record. This video shows bubble help for an thumbnail image. When the mouse is over the image the full size image is shown. Watch video. http://www.alphasoftware.com/VideoNe...BubbleHelp.swf
Defining HTML Bubble Help In this video we show how easy it is to create advanced bubble help that includes data, images from the current record and hyperlinks to invoke Xbasic events. Watch video. http://www.alphasoftware.com/VideoNe...BubbleHelp.swf
Vertical Scroll Bar The size of the slider on the vertical scroll bar is now proportional to the number of records in the table and its position is now proportional to the logical position of the record in the table. Also, when you drag on the vertical slider, bubble help shows the key value of the record that would get focus if you were to stop dragging. Watch video. http://www.alphasoftware.com/VideoNe...lScrollbar.swf
Browse Layout Controls When you are editing a Browse layout (stand alone and embedded), you can now insert 'Browse Layout Controls' in the browse. There are several types of Browse Layout Controls, such as buttons to open forms, run reports, run scripts, and insert icons. In this video we use a Browse Layout control to put hyperlinks in a browse column that open a form to show the current record. Watch video. http://www.alphasoftware.com/VideoNe...lsOpenForm.swf
In the second video we put a dynamic icon in a browse column. We have a browse showing customers. Each customer has a credit rating between 0 and 5. We put a dynamic icon in a browse column that shows a 'five star' icon for customers with a rating of 5, a 'four star' icon for customers with a rating of 4 and so on. Watch video. http://www.alphasoftware.com/VideoNe...namicIcons.swf
Embedded Browse Layouts You can now embed Browse Layouts in Xdialogs. Just design the Browse Layout in the Browse Layout editor and then a single command writes the Xdialog code for you. Watch video. http://www.alphasoftware.com/VideoNe...ddedBrowse.swf
