When in a table view that contains a text field with a value list attached, if you click between rows the value list will only display intermittently, generally every other click. The same problem is not an issue with combo boxes, however we can’t use them because of space limitations in our interface.
Attached is a simple solution based on the example database where the behavior is replicated.
Our working environment is Windows XP, Servoy 2.2.5, Java 1.5.0_08.
Any ideas or input on this issue would be most welcome, thanks!
Happens with table view not with list view. Have seen it before but I don’t know why. Can you confirm the same behavior on 3.0? Why not use a list view?
Edit: I would attach a new solution export with data, but i can’t seem to get teh forum to accept my udated version.
My apologies for the lack of data in the last post. I’ve attached a new solution with data included.
We are using the table view, as opposed to the list view because the spreadsheet functionality that a table provides is desired for this particular interface, and we have been informed that tables will load faster that list views.
Also, I do not beleive a typeahead field will accomplish the effect we are looking for. Once a user has any value in a typeahead field, only matching items in the valuelist will appear, but we need all of them to show always.
As far as testing in 3.0, we have yet to start development in 3.0, so I cannot attest to how it functions there.
