this does not seem to work in the webclient, can that be resolved or do we need to make our own dialogs?
The dialog plug-in does not work in web client. You need to make your own. Check out the “svyCore” solution - I’ve created a dialog in there with icons, multiple buttons, etc.
Of course that can be done but why is the plugin not supported? We want the same business logic as in the rich client. An info/input dialog is such basic functionality that is should be supported.
Because it is not easy at all to translate a native Swing component to something displayable in the web. That is also the reason that most beans are not supported. But as you may have noticed, Servoy 3.5 can already handle the Tree bean and the popup menu. So maybe in the future there will be more components added.
We’re also updating the sample solutions to take care of this - via the same “fake” dialog form - but this time in a “real” dialog on both smart and web client.
