Default menu in forms 10.1.2.0.2

Hi,
I have created a form in 10g and am using the default oracle Menu for this form. It has all the needed icons except for LOV. Can somebody tell me how to add the LOV icon in the default menu. I dont want to create a whole new menu for one icon. Please suggest.
Thanks in advance.

The default menu is dynamically generated but there is a starter menu file that you can add to and use as your menu. It's called menudef.mmb. See this thread for how to get it: Forms6 : default menus menudef.mmb and menudefs.mmb

SMARTBAR in FORMS 9i without DEFAULT menu

I need in my Forms 9i the SMARTBAR without DEFAULT menu.
DEFAULT menu and DEFAULT&SMARTBAR menu is possible, why not a SMARTBAR menu (internal)?
Regards
Friedhold Matz

The reason that there is no Smartbar on it's own is because the smartbar is driven off the menu - Menu Items can expose themselves on the smart bar if required, but any smartbar item has to be in the menu (but it can be invisible).
So to only have smartbar would involve a menu full of only invisible items, but that would mean that peoplw would not be able to add their own menus to co-exist with the smartbar.
You can always edit the menudefs.mmb file (it comes with the 6i demos which you can pull off OTN)

Oracle forms standard/default menu - Record Delete option

Hi ,
Oracle forms provides a standard menu with the below options.
Action , Query , Block , Record , Help etc.
Under each of these Menu options there are sub options.
Eg: Under Record we have Previous , Next , Insert , Delete etc.
Can someone please tell me how to control this menu item options for different forms.
Eg: for 1 form i want to allow the Record - Delete option but for another form i dont want to give this option.
How to do this ??
Please help....
I tried to search for the solution but couldnt get the right answer. Hope someone will help me out here.

Hello,
The Oracle Forms documentation states:
The Default menu is built-in to every form, and is not a separate menu module.
You cannot change the structure of the Default menu or edit the menu items it
displays.
If your application requires
unique menu functions, you must create a custom menu module and attach it to
your form.
If the internal default menu almost meets your needs, you can attach the
"menudef.mmb" approximation of the default menu to the form. You can then
rename and edit this menu.
You can download the demo version for 10g R2 and menudefs_10g.mmb is included with the demos.
http://download.oracle.com/otndocs/demos/Forms_Demos_10gr2.zip
You will get menudef_10g.mmb and menudefs_10g.mmb.
If needed check metalink note:
Differences between menudef.mmb and menudefs.mmb menu files. [ID 1081136.1]
Kind regards,
Alex

Remove default menu bar

Hi,
I want to remove only the default menu and want to retain the smartbar.Is it possible or any other workarounds available.
Is it possible to remove/hide the window header that appears at the top of each form.I want to increase the form area by eliminating the area occupied by this window header.
Please help me.
thanks and regards

Madhu,
for Forms9i using WebUtil this can be accomplished by the Browser package of WebUtil. You can use it to hide/show the Window menu bar.

a file containing the default menu called defmenu.mmb,
but i searched all forms directory and CDROM by i couldn't find this file.
so anyone can help me to find this file.
Thanks,

Hi,

About the forms demo could you please tell me how and from where to install it.
Thanks,

Default Menu Editing

Hi,
Hi,
I'm using forms 10g, is it possible to modify the default menu, for example to disable the exit menuitem. I know this is possible on custom menus, and if so, how about the smartbar exit button?

Hello,
To play with the default menu, you have to modify and attach the menudef.mmb menu module, that is a "clone" of the internal Forms default menu.

What DOES the default menu do?

Hi,
Scenario: sqlplus on scott/tiger schema and a 9i form running and linked
to the EMP table.
User on the form queries Blake's record and changes their salary by one unit
(forms locks the record as the change takes place).
Nip across to SQLplus and type in an UPDATE statement to set Blake's
salary to zero (hangs on the lock).
Back into the form: decide to ditch the change of Blake's salary by choosing
Block->Clear from the menu (screen gets wiped).
Back to sqlplus: no update on the sqlplus window (still hanging I guess on
the lock).
Back to the form - choose Action->Clear All and this allows sqlplus to
work again.
Question1: what does "Action->Clear All" do (if it just invokes a built-in where
can I read words like "this calls clear_form(NO_COMMIT)" ?)
Question2: why didn't Block->Clear discard the lock?
I kindof think that there's something obvious I am missing, but am willing to
sacrifice my pride for a good answer.
Thanks in advance
Mungo Henning :-)

Hi Kranthi,
Thanks for the reply.
Hello
The Clear All item in the default menu is
functionally equivalent to executing the CLEAR_FORM
M procedure with default parameters:
CLEAR_FORM(ask_commit, to_savepoint);
The block clear menu option removes all records from,
or flushes the current block.You haven't said whether the block clear menu option calls "CLEAR_BLOCK".
So what does it do with uncommitted changes - ask or ignore?
>
Refer to the online help for more details That's the overwhelming issue: I have gone to the on-line manual but I find
it infuriating when it lacks vital details. I will happily stand corrected if someone
can list some keywords or a web URL for the exact page I ought to be reading
So I politely request that you indulge me: where in the manual does it discuss
the functionality of the default menu in exact terms?
Thanks again
Mungo

Highlight Fields as default for PDF Forms

Hello all,
I've recently designed a PDF form with some required fields, which get marked in red as soon as you open the form. However, some Acrobat Reader users have to click first on "highlight fields" in order to see the required fields. Is there a way to set "highlight fields" as a default for this form?
Cheers,
David

The suggested code didn't work for me with Adobe Reader 8.0. However, since I am a novice at this, I may not be adding the code correctly -- can you please tell me if this JavaScript client code for layout:ready is correct or not? I added the code in red. (I am using LiveCycle Designer ES Version 8.2.1.4029.1.523496). It seems to be in the right place because if I alter the code to unconditionally set app.runtimeHighlight to false, then when I open up the form with Reader 9.0, the highlighted fields are off.
form1.#pageSet[0].Page1.CurrentPage::ready:layout - (JavaScript, client)
this.rawValue
=xfa.layout.page(this);
// Turn on highlighted fields
if
(!app.runtimeHighlight){
app.runtimeHighlight
= true;}
form1.#pageSet[0].Page1.PageCount::ready:layout - (JavaScript, client)
this.rawValue
= xfa.layout.pageCount();
// Turn on highlighted fields
if
(!app.runtimeHighlight){
app.runtimeHighlight
= true;}

Set default File Export Form for Communication Medium?

Hi,
Does anyone know whether it's possible to set a default File Export Form for Communication Medium.
For example, I created communication medium 'Direct Mailing'. Everytime when a user selects this communication medium in a Marketing Campaign, I would like the File Export Form 'Z_DIRECT_MAILING' to be selected automatically. Is this possible?
Regards,
Jeroen

@ Rienk - That isn't my issue, what I was looking for was to have the last setting I selected (either in Batch Export or in QT Movie Export) "Stick" so when I go to do the next set I don't have to re-select all of my settings.
@ Nick - Not a good thing in this case. I need to send out QTs that have the speed change "baked-in" and convert the format(to ProRes, so the Color Grading session using "Color" doesn't choke. I changed my Sequence: "Settings > QuickTime Video Settings > Compressor" to ProRes, but the "Current Setting" seems to stick to the original clip's capture format (XDCAM EX).

Here's a scripting VI for LVClass default menu

I was asked this morning for a bit of functionality that has been in LV for years but not exposed as a standalone function: how to set or clear the default menu associated with a LabVIEW class. So I did a "create subVI", cleaned up the code a bit, and put an icon on it. Figured it might be useful to other folks, so I'm posting it here. It is saved for LV 2009 and there is no password on the VI.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

The real goal was to see how long a label would have to become before you resorted to a caption, free label, control description or VI description.
Oh, that's short for me. Ask anyone on LV R&D... as length of variable name/function name increases, the probability of it being written by me rises, hitting certainty somewhere around I think 40 characters. And that's in the text languages. In G, where I'm not typing the names? Oh, I've been known to put paragraphs in labels in my own personal code. I don't ship stuff like that out to you folks because I know it isn't kosher. :-)

How to apply modified UI Defaults to existing forms and reports?

Hi all--
I've been struggling with UI defaults and after searching through posts in this forum, it doesn't look like I'm alone.
Is there a way to apply changes made to UI defaults to existing forms and reports? New forms and reports pick up the changes, but can they by applied retoactively?
Thanks in advance,
Dan Krautheim

Thanks for the update,
We have a develpment 10g AS environment setup made,
1) But we are really confused how to present the forms and reports.
We have around 250 forms and reports running on client/server architecture. All these forms/reports have been copied to a fileshare and access control is restricted by folder security.
2) How to deploy forms - entries within formsweb.cfg with Named Configuration sections.
3) How to deploy reports, as to were to copy the .rep files.
getting the following error
REP-110: Unable to open file 'Car_Readings.rep'.

Modifying default menu in Director

I'm not having trouble with the installMenu command to create custom menus, but is it possible to customize or even remove the menu that Director automatically installs as the first menu? (It defaults to the projector's app name, and includes a hide, show, and quit option, as well as services).

The default menu is dynamically generated but there is a starter menu file that you can add to and use as your menu. It's called menudef.mmb. See this thread for how to get it: Forms6 : default menus menudef.mmb and menudefs.mmb
