Events in layout object like VB

Classic Servoy
1

Hi there,

Event handling like what we have in MS Visual Basic is available are supported in Servoy? Events like drag-drop, mouse move etc., are supported? In my demo version I can see for a button we just have only an action event (which is similar to a button clicked event in VB)

Please help me clarify.

Thanks,
Hameed

No servoy is not a Java GUI designer.. maybe we will move to it over time but that is not yet committed.

for now you have the events we can provide you like:
onAction (button click or enter press in textfield)
focusLost and focusGained
onChange (data is changed of the entry field)

what kind of events you would like to see on specific components? And what would you like to do with them.

What I want to achieve is a drag-drop functionality. If I have a small image gallery database which stores images, then I want to allow the users to drag the image file from widows explorer and drop it in the Form.
This action would create a record in the database and copies that image into the image gallery application’s image folder and store the image reference(path).

I still do not know how image functions work in Servoy. Can I store a image path in a field and show the image in the form using the image path field? I have just downloaded the demo and playing around for an hour. I am a filemaker developer and the Servoy is quite exciting for me.

Thanks for your answers.
