Known Issues

Table Widget Editor

  • should only accept table source inputs (allowed me to enter a file name)
  • hide font options, as they don't do anything (or use them as a default for the text on the widget)
  • data source does not display in input sometimes, hard to reproduce. Try start in .DKL/PLO DRAG 'N DROP, Opt Int, then Opt 94 to .DKL/PLO SHELL SELECTED FILE,then A/C .DKL/PLO DETAILS SELECTED FILE, then IE, double click widget. Or Run the input from design: .DKL/PLO DRAG ’N DROP, Drag some files, Close the input, then: - Start in .DKL/PLO DRAG 'N DROP, Opt Int, then Opt 94 to .DKL/PLO SHELL SELECTED FILE,then goto A/C .DKL/PLO DETAILS SELECTED FILE, then Image Editor, double click widget.
  • Invocation Type s/b required field.

Table Source Editor

  • hitting enter in key entry mode does not bring up list (READ FIRST not set?)
  • accepts invalid occurrence numbers
  • App Id 0LA should display as ---
  • Can't Browse and then Navigate to hits
  • link from DD does not work
  • link from DD is not highlighted if table sources exist
  • when adding fields from other files, warning message refers to 'Post User Selection' EP.

Table Widget Runtime

  • trying use a data source with 5K records, got C-assert or Appx crashes (client closes session):
    ==================================================================
    APPX Runtime Error
    ------------------------------------------------------------------
    MODULE: FP.C.1840
    PROCESS: 1EX/00/INPUT - VENDOR TABLE TEST
    find_citm() - attach failed
    ==================================================================
  • double click option difficult to trigger
  • if a Size is set, data is truncated to that size, even if the user expands the column.
  • Filling dead space - right now the last column is expanded –if necessary- to create a row that fills the total with of the table, but that sometimes gives trouble in resizing the last column.
  • Wide Columns appear to be truncated. Try to display a 512 character field.

Drag & Drop Editor

  • There should be a flag on the --- WIDGET spec to indicate if the field can accept a Drop action. This should be available for the followingWidget types: button, label, table widget, html viewer, and Window Background. Currently only works for Widgets attached to an item. Problem: Some of those widget types do not fire an option, ie, labels, etc.

Drag & Drop Runtime

  • There are times when it would be nice for the ADC Window to gain focus when an object is dropped on it.
  • When dragging files over an Appx screen show where you can drop your files (change border or something of the widgets that can accept a drop action). More of a 'nice to have', since the mouse pointer changes when the mouse passes over a drop target.
  • Provide a runtime API to copy the --- DROP* files to memory versions of those files (MDROP* ?) to make it easier for a designer to save the contents of --- DROP.
  • If you set @SDND=file to only accept files, and the user drops a folder, the option still fires but the --- DROP* files are empty. The option probably should not fire at all in this case, and the mouse pointer should not change (?).

New Event Points (Tab In/Out/Value Changed)

  • If you have 2 fields beside each other, one with Tab Out and one with Tab In, only one event fires when you tab from one to the other.
  • Two fields on an image. Both with tab in/out set to yes, when you switch from the desktop client to another program, then switch back to the client. Then tab to the next field, no option is fired.

Other

  • Can't xref table source process types
  • Can't print tech doc for table source types
  • Need .WIDGET routine to REFRESH Table Widget via WIDGET VISIBLE INIT, maybe?.
  • Drag & Drop libraries are not installed during client install
  • Mac (and probably Linux) clients do not run
