Hello, from time from this part we have a trouble, and don’t know how it really works. The question is are any global variable that say you in what form are. Because we try so many variables we see in the framework and seems only work fine with the panel 1, but with the 2,3 or 4 panels don’t work, and never get the right formName. Any sugestion?

But if I want only the active? not all the forms view in the screen, only the form edit/creating new/delete record?
