Replacing a tab from an inherited form not possible?

Classic Servoy

Hi

I created a new sub form and wanted to have this sub form just another tabless tab panel, i. e. another relation to a form than the original one. This seems not to be possible. Is this a known issue or an already planned feature for a next release or should I make a feature request if I wished that functionality?

Thanks and regards, Robert

Hi Robert,

Not sure I understand what you mean here. Can you specify some steps to reproduce this ?

Hi Laurian

Let’s say I have a simple form like the one in the attached sreenshot. Body, Footer and a relationship to another form. Now, I would like to make a form which inherit from the shown form, and only replace the relationship (the tab on the tabless panel) in the sub form, so I get changes done on the body or footer size (for example) inherited to the sub form (as is usual for inheritance).

But as soon as I make a sub form from the shown one, I can not replace the tab (relationship) anymore, it is fixed.

Hope that helps, thanks and regards, Robert

It’s currently possible to override inherited form properties and to extend a form by adding more elements to it.

Overriding properties of inherited elements or removing inherited elements is currently not supported (<=5.1).

Note that this is @designtime, so when creating/editing the form in the Form Editor in Servoy Developer. @runTime ofcourse you are free add and/or remove tabs.

Hi Paul

That’s correct, I meant replacing a tab at design time, not at runtime. Thanks for clarification.
