Action on Change of a variable possible? Fe. in combination of checkbox widget.

Hello,
I'm using the checkbox wizard with 35 items from wich the user has to select max. 7 items. The checkbox wizard is a great tool that keeps the choices in user variables.
Is it possible that  for every (de)selection a choice a counter keeps track of the number of choices and perfoms an action when the status of 7 is reached? Or is there an alternative?
Lucas

I have been blogging about the checkboxes widgets, you don't tell the version you are using? Because it has been replaced totally by the Checkboxes Learning interaction in CP8 and its latest version allows also to control what is displayed by changing the associated variables.
However it remains a static widget, which means that it cannot trigger an action, because it doesn't have events: Events and (advanced) Actions - Captivate blog
Even if it was an interactive widget, it wouldn't have helped. You will need an interactive object like a button to trigger an advanced (or shared action) that will count the number of variables that have a value different from 'null' Where is Null? - Captivate blog. 
It will never be possible to trigger an action when the counter reaches 7, because the action will only be executed when the interactive object is clicked.
Alternative: at this moment I only see to create the radio buttons yourself (use shape buttons) and each button can trigger an advanced/shared (use shared if you are on CP8!) action that will increment a counter and store the choice in a user variable, then (second decision in a conditional action) checks if the counter has reached the value of 7 to give a warning that the allowed number of choices has been reached and eventually disables all the shape buttons. I mention a shared action, because you'll need 32 instances of that action.

  • How to (if possible) change the measfilename variable at runtime

    Hello / Hallo (in Deutsch unten)
    Is it possible to change the measfilename at runtime? I have two HBM MGC+ which need a pretty long time to initialize. Both are installed in a car. For each measurement we make I must run the DAC scheme make the measurements an stop it. Then ich change the filename for the data and we make the next measurements. This takes a lot of time.
    I want to start run the DAC scheme for only one time and let it run. Then I want to trigger the measurements with buttons setting triggerconditions in the DAC scheme. To trigger the recording of the data is not the problem but how can I change the measfilename variable at runtime so that each new measurement is saved in a new file?
    The example with the GenFileName function is interesting but not the solution for my problem...
    has anyone an idea?
    Thanks a lot.
    Sebastian
    DEUTSCH:
    Hallo,
    kennt einer eine Möglichkeit die Variable MeasFileName bei laufender Messung zu verändern? Ich möchte die Messung starten... das Abspeichern geschieht über Triggerbedingungen die von Button im DAC Plan während der Messung gesteuert werden. Ziel wäre für jede neu getriggerte Messung je eine neue Datei mit einem neuen (in der Laufzeit eingebbaren) Dateinamen anzulegen.
    Hat das oder ähnliches schonmal einer gemacht und kann sachdienliche Hinweise abgeben ?
    Danke schonmal.
    Grüße Sebastian

    Hallo,
    ich habe noch ein wenig herumprobiert aber es klappt nicht so richtig. Ich habe noch folgendes versucht: Daten ins Datenportal ablegen und immer nach Ende einer einzelnen Messung per Button eine Autosequenz aufrufen die die Daten in eine Datei schreibt (Dateiname über Dialogfeld eingebbar). Das klappt auch... nur wenn ich dann in der Autoseq. den Datenbereich komplett lösche (DATADELALL) und eine neue Messsequenz starten will stürzt das Messprog. mit Runtimeerror ab. Irgendwie kommt der vermutlich nicht klar damit, dass der Messwertzähler während der Laufzeit wieder auf 0 gesetzt werden muss.
    Eine fortlaufende Speicherung mit anschließender Sortierung wollte ich auch schon machen aber bei fast 200 Messkanälen mit 800Hz häufen sich einfach soviele Daten an, dass die Messdatei riesig werden würde.
    Grüße Sebastian

  • Action that makes change to visible properties possible?

    Is there a JavaScript way (or another) that makes it possible to change properties of an object.
    F.e A buttonClick that changes the fillColor of the shape of the target (= clicked button)

    Nice to hear that!.
    I'm working with Captivate 8, but can't find the way to  that action (was
    first trying with JavaScript...)
    btw : I'm working at the Odisee UC (fusion between KAHO and HUB /EHSAL).

  • Essbase server - automatic change of substitution variable from SQL

    Hi,I would like to automaticaly change the substitution variable in Essbase Server. Is it posible to change the substitition variable from external source e.g. SQL statement?Simple sample:I would like to assign value "2003" to "CurYear" substitution variable. But value "2003" I would like to get from SQL:"select year(current date) from table".There are commands in Esscmd and MaxL Shell, see bellow.Esscmd command:CREATEVARIABLE "CurYear" "localhost" "" "" "2003";MaxL Shell:alter system set variable CurYear '2003';Is it possible to get the value '2003' from SQL and pass this value to Esscmd command or MaxL Shell?My system:Windows 2000 Professional Service pack 4Essbase at 6.5.3 levelThanks,Grofaty

    You can create a text file from the SQL server that writes the command like"CREATEVARIABLE "CurrYear" "Servername" "AppName" "DBName" "2005";then you can create a schedule job that would run this script which can update the variable. CREATEVARIABLE creates/replaces the current variable.

  • Agentry: Trigger action when changing main screen tab

    Hi,
    I'm adapting Work Manager for iPad and in my main screen I have 4 tab screens: Work Orders, Notifications, Time Sheets and Crew Manager.
    I would like to trigger a List Selection action step when the user navigates to the Time Sheets tab in order to select the current day of the week automatically. I already created and tested the action with a button and it's working fine but I don't find a way to trigger an action when changing main screen tabs.
    Here my main screen:
    In the screen definition there is not much I can define... just the icon, size and styling...

    Ok, thank you both, the question has been answered
    Regarding Bill suggestions I think there are too many possible actions in the main screen where to apply the selection step.
    And to apply Jason's workaround I need to do a major UI change and user's are too familiar now with the solution that has been in production for a while...
    I think I will set the date after transmit. It won't work on the initial load and when user manually selects a different day and comes back to the tab, but I think it will cover more than 90% of application uses since they are supposed to synchronise every morning and register time for the current date usually.
    @Jason: I hope you can tell the idea to the engineering team

  • Issue in execution of Dynamic action on change event

    Hi,
    Greetings.
    I have scenario, where I have one select list (P_CATEGORY) and one shuttle control (P_ROOMS) on page.
    The values of the shuttle list is being populated based on the selected value in select list.
    The left pane of shuttle control's value based on LOV and source of the shuttle item is a plsql function, which returning colon separated value list.
    So that returned values shown in the right pane of shuttle.
    The LOV values are getting being populated using cascading LOV i.e based on the of Select List item. But the Shuttle source values not getting auto refresh and for achieving that I've created a dynamic true action on change event of Select list.
    The dynamic action is with :
    Action : Set Value
    Set Type : PL SQL funciton body
    Page items to submit : P_CATEGORY (this is select list)
    Escape Special Character : Yes
    Suppress Change event : Yes
    Affected Elements -
    Selection type : Item(s)
    Item(s) : P_ROOMS
    This is perfectly working on Firefox but not working on IE9 & Google Chrome.
    I've debugged in both IE9 & Google chrome and found the dynamic action get executes ajax call and the values get back but not rendering on the screen. i.e not assigning to the item.
    So can you please advice me what will be a workaround for this issue?
    I am using Application Express 4.1.0.00.32 .
    I'll appreciate your prompt response.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Jaydipsinh Raulji

    I don't understand why this is not working withouth seeing an example, there might be multiple processes working on the item.
    Anyway if the value is returned check if the value is in the session aswell. If it is in the session but not on the page that means you will need to find a way to bring it from the DB to the page. You can do this by adding an action to your DA:
    Action: Execute PL/SQL code
    PL/SQL code: NULL;
    Page Items to Return: your shuttle item

  • Dynamic Action On change tabular form question

    Hi guys!
    I've wanted to add dynamic action on change (tabular form) to execute PL/SQL which checks if column of the tabular form has changed and if yes it changes walue of text field to Y or N. It doesnt work...and I don't know why. If I create validation with this PL/SQL it works. Can you help?
    DA:
    On change - Tabular Form
    PL/SQL;
    DECLARE
       nazwa     VARCHAR2(4000);
       counter   NUMBER := 0;
    BEGIN
       FOR i IN 1 .. apex_application.g_f08.COUNT
       LOOP
        SELECT NAZWISKO INTO nazwa FROM SPR_META.M_UZYTKOWNICY WHERE NAZWA_UZYTKOWNIKA = apex_application.g_f02(i);
          IF wwv_flow_item.md5(nazwa) <>  wwv_flow_item.md5(apex_application.g_f08(i)) THEN
            counter := counter + 1;
          END IF;
       END LOOP;
       IF counter > 0 THEN
       :P5_IS_TABULAR_FORM_CHANGED := 'Y';
       ELSE
        :P5_IS_TABULAR_FORM_CHANGED := 'N';
      END IF;
    END;Page items to submit: P5_IS_TABULAR_FORM_CHANGE
    What's wrong?
    With regards,
    PsmakR

    Region static id shouldn be in bracketsYou missed the '#' informt of the region id.
    why my original PL/SQL process did not work
    FOR i IN 1 .. apex_application.g_f08.COUNTThis works only when the application array has values and that happens only when the page is submitted.When you submit the dynamic action , it isn't.
    This script combined with script to detect changes makes apex page running very slowIf you use that PLSQL code(assuming it works as expected) , then its going to take a server request every-time you change a field in the tabular form and loop though all the array values(if they would be submitted before) and recalculate and compare the checksums . Isn't that going to be very inefficient.
    As for that JS code, it only runs at the client side. You can do all the server side checks on submit, when the user expects some delay due to processing.

  • BEx: How to change a Query Variable that is not visible in Filters List?

    Hello Experts,
    Good day, I'm currently editing an old query, I am changing the Query Variables with new ones, but I found one variable that I cannot replace.
    Please see the screenshot below, in the Query Properties Window [Variable Sequence Tab (right side of picture)] the Variable that I am trying to replace (Unit) is visible. But when I look for the variable in the "Filter Tab" (left side of picture) under Characteristic Restrictions, it doesn't exist in the list.
    How can I find this Variable and replace it with a new one?
    Other reports are still using this variable so it will impact the other reports if I simply edit the variable. So I need to replace it with a new variable instead.
    Thank you for your time.

    Hi,
            SInce you are searching for a variable for Unit, look into below screenshot and navigate to the variables.
    First click on drop down and select 'Entry for variable' then you will get lisl (after you click on drop down in 'Target Unit' drop down option.
