I've changed my mind on First Form

Classic Servoy

I had set the Solution Settings First form value to a form. Now I’ve changed my mind and will handle the first form in a method depending upon the user that has signed on. The trouble is there is no way I can remove the current first form value. Can the form value list that pops up contain a blank value or ?

Now the problem is more serious. I have specified a method to be executed on solution startup that is to determine which form to display for a given user. The method is executed, but then immediately displays the form specified in the first form parameter, overriding my selected form. Since I can’t get rid of the first form parameter I’m stuck. Is there anything Servoy can do to help me?

I think it’s not possible to even remove the first form parameter, becaus ewhat would the solution show as first form if the developer would not implement a method for the selection?

for your more serious problem: Where did you put the logic for the selection? In a solutionstart method? If so, it might be that the determination of which form to be shown only happens after the solutionStart method is fired.

I would suggest to try the following:
Make a blank form, which will be your first form.
Then create an onLoad/ or on Show method on that form in which you determine the right form to show, based on the loged in user and then load that form.

Haven’t tried it, but it might work…
