rollovercursor HAND in portal

rollovercursor HAND, on a button in a portal is not working! :frowning:

no and this will also not work in a next version.
This is know behaviour

Hand cursors only work really right in Record view. And in listview but then only if you are already editting the record.

And in listview but then only if you are already editting the record

Would be nice if the hand would be seen in every record in listview… Any possibilities of getting this function down in a next release? :idea:

Will it be possible to set it as default cursor and/or to change all the elements in a solution to make them use it?

currently not, we will look if we can do that through a style property for the next version.

Not only does the hand symbol not show you also have to double-click for the action to trigger. I have had some negative feedback from my in-house testers about this inconsistency. What’s the time frame for a fix?

what kind of action do you need to double click?
Buttons?
Or do placed ‘buttons’ on the form that you show in listview that has the showclick disabled?

The forms is: List view (locked)

Title Header | +        Phones         x   | where '+' and 'x' are bitmap  icons for add and delete methods
        Body | [home] [(480) 555-1234] @   | where '@'  is a phone icon

All icons are ‘showClick = disabled’ and ‘rolloverCursor = HAND’.

The ‘+’ and ‘x’ icon in the title header work as expected. The hand symbol shows and one click triggers the associated method

The ‘@’ icon in the body calls a method to help dialing that phone number. The hand cursor deosn’t show (we know that already) AND I have to double-click to trigger the method.

I use this kind of setup throughout my solution where an ‘@’ icon triggers a contextual method.

As far as I am concerned this is a fairly major inconsistency in the UI and should be addresses as soon as practical. It’s no big deal for me personally but my beta testers (all non IT) have complained about it.

Please advise on an ETA.

yes is a know problem. The best thing currently is not to disable showclick and remove the border..

Is there any news on this subject and a known workaround for now? I was just struggling to get it working, but it looks like an old issue :)

which part?
that you have to click twice on a label with an action or the rollovercursor

Sorry :) I meant the rollovercursor part.

rollover on labels wont work for tableviews/portals, for that there is also not really a workaround that i can think off, besides not using tableviews…

We also cant fix this as far as i can see because of the underlying architecture.
