Fields in a tab remains uneditable in find mode

Classic Servoy
1

I have a form with a tab panel containing unrelated forms based on the same table and showing the same foundset of the main form, the tab panel contains not-editable fields.
When I enter Find mode I can input my search criterias in the fields of the main form and in the fields of the first tab panel form but if I switch to the second tab the fields there are not editable.

Only the tab displayed while entering Find mode works correctly allowing me to enter search criterias.

This is very annoying because there is no way to input search criterias in different tabs.

I tend to use separate search forms.
This also has the added benefit that you can allow partial searches on fields that normally have non-editable comboxes. I.e. they are plain fields in the search form.

Hope this helps.

I’m using this technique too waiting for Servoy staff to fix the bug. Anyway searching in the same form is easier for the user and brings less work to the developer.
