Hi Uwe,

When you run into that problem the debugger should stop and you ought to be able to see if the method exists in the Interface Manager. Is it possible that you used something like “Calculate lRow as lAnotherRow”. This also copies the definition of the other row variable.

Best,

Andreas

Hi Uwe,

When you have an overridden method you can have the same parameter and the same value will be passed to the inherited method as well as its superclass method.

If you want a different value you could use $cinst.$inherited.$myMethod() and pass a different value there. However I would be careful if you really want this.

For example if you change the ID to be loaded in the inherited class your superclass will load a different record. Is this what you really want? If the behaviour is different I would rather suggest using another method and then call the other method from within there.

Best,

Andreas

I would like to recommend for the first test using an instance variable and show it in an entry field in that subform to proof what layout breakpoint you are in.

On the other hand why do you assign column widths and the width of the component at all?

You can set $columnwidthsarepercentage=kTrue and then make sure each column has the right percentage width. The width property of the control should then automatically be controlled by the layout breakpoint the form is in. So no need to assign it at all.

Hi Uwe,

Sorry. The picture does not show the error and the Interface Manager. So I do not know what to see there.

However we found an issue that was similar in our fault database (ST/DB/1450) which is fixed for build 35439. So it should be fine in the latest Omnis Studio 11 Version.

Best,

Hi Doug,

Excellent point!

But I think if you want to call a method inside the list (which is great since it is encapsulated then) you would need to put that method into a table class where the list is derived from. Either the concrete class or it’s super class.

Hi Martin,

I have added an enhancement request to limit the width of a column when $columnwidthsarepercentage is set to kTrue.

Best regards,

Andreas

[Andreas Pfeiffer]

The latest.

Hi Martin,

Not sure what you mean. The $columnwidtharepercentage is global for the grid. So if you set it it will certainly affect all of the columns.

I made a litte (Omnis Studio 11) sample library that shows how that works. Please see attached.

Best regards,

Andreas

Btw. In Omnis Studio 11 you could just delete all layout breakpoints but one. Then either set the right and bottom edge float to the grid or – if you have only the grid in the subform making the edge float kEFPosnClient. Then the grid will be relative to the size of the subform control in the outer form.

Martin,

I am glad it works for you. Thanks for the feedback.

Have a good day 🙂

If you set $columnwidthsarepersentage=ktrue you would only give a percentage value for each column. For example 10 means 10% of the entire width.

[Andreas Pfeiffer]

ha -ha. Why is that? Omnis Studio 11 has a lot of bugfixes and new features.

[Andreas Pfeiffer]

That should be fine. Though why not using Omnis Studio 11?

[Andreas Pfeiffer]

Do you put the breakpoint after the evLayoutChanged?

[Andreas Pfeiffer]

that is weird. Which build do you use?

Best,

Andreas
