How to select specific Tab in form and specific row in grid

Hi Pawan

Thank you for your reply. 'select is the correct command to select the row. Unfortunately it only partly solved the problem.

I'm implementing an up/down that should move rows up and down.

So selecting a row and pressing Up moves the selected row one row up

I would then like to be able to press up again to move it one more row up. But the problem is that even 'select does not give me the correct row for the form, so it stays at the original selected row. 'goto does not change this, do you have any suggestions for this?

Best regards

1) change tab displayed

   axlFormSetField(form "<name of tab> 1)

              - in the form file add "OPTIONS tabsetDispatch" to the "TABSET" definition (see example axlform.il/axlform.form; look for f1s_lastTab)

             - the form dispatches the <name of tab> as the curValue to the "TABSET" field name when the tab is changed.

             - <name of tab> the name displayed to user & in the form file is the name in the "TAB" definition.

2) try using the 'select option with  axlFormGridOptions

Hi

Changing tab is fine

'Select does not select the correct row, it keeps staying at the current row

Example:

I select row 3

printf("%L:\t(%d,%d) %L\n", fg->event, fg->row, fg->col, fg->curValue) will show the following: rowselect: (3,0) t

I now do a

axlFormGridOptions(fg "grid" 'select fg->row - 1)

It visually shows the fg->row-1 as selected but the result of the print command is still the same

printf("%L:\t(%d,%d) %L\n", fg->event, fg->row, fg->col, fg->curValue) will show the following: rowselect: (3,0) t

So somehow it does not change fg->row

What is causing this situation?

Best regards

The form handle data reflects the result of the last form event and is not updated when you programmatically change form data. You can see the same behavior if your Skill code changes the content of the active field. The form handle curValue will still show the previous contents.
