Hi Folks, we’ve decided to do a major clean-up of the structure of our app and move forms and related stuff into separate modules of the main app to make developer navigation easier among the huge list of forms and reports. Had originally hoped Servoy would add some sort of navigation for this (believe it was promised in 3.5 or so but perhaps its difficult to do in Eclipse ?) but its now become unwieldy to manage without some sort of sub division.
We figured a form would have the same attributes after moving regardless of where it was - so long as it was in a module of the app, but not so. Initially we moved a form with a tab panel containing other forms. All of those other forms lost their name and became ‘unresolved’ in the tab panel. Some of the forms in the tab will need to be moved as well but some not.
Is there a procedure we can use to make these form moves without losing the linked form name?
if you have a form A that displays a tab that has a form B in your main solution
then if you move A you also have to move B, that is a requirement…
You cant say i let B stay in the main solution…
If you do move B and the tab in A still doesnt auto correect itself (it is still unresolved) then our move should be enhanced.

Thanks Johan - so to clarify, if I have Tab 1 in the main solution and there are forms a.b and c in there - I can move form b to a new module and it ‘should’ stay sync’ed with Tab 1 in the main solution? Or will all moved forms have to be re-connected if they appear in a Tab panel?
so if you dont move the form that HAS the tab, but you only move forms that are IN the tab to a module (of the solution where you move it from) that should work.
