Dynamic Tab Canvas

Is it possible to dynamically create a series of tab canvases depending on the results of a query against a database.
Say for instance I have 4 rows with a certain value set, then I would like 4 tab's to appear, however if I have 3 rows next time then only 3 tabs appear.
Cheers

I just mean create all the tab pages you could possibly want then use
SET_TAB_PAGE_PROPERTY(..., ENABLED, PROPERTY_FALSE) in
a relevant trigger (depending on where you need to decide
how many tabs you need).
Instead of ENABLED you could also try VISIBLE so they shouldn't appear at all.

Regarding Creating Horizontally moving tabbed canvas at runtime

Hi..
Is it possible to create a Horizontal dynamically
moving Tabbed Canvas.
I want to move the particular tab page of the tabbed
canvas horizonatlly during runtime by placing a
horizontal scroll bar.
Could anyone tell me how it in can be done with steps?
Plz reply me asap it is urgent.
Thanks & Regards,
Venkatesan.S

Mmm
Let's see.. there are two tips:
- 1st: modify canvas length dinamically
- 2nd: put the scroll bar to the block into the canvas
Solutions:
- 1st: Use the set_canvas_property built-in (with WITDH parameter)
- 2nd: There are no problems to put an hoprizontal scrollbar associated to the block you're viewing into the page of your tabbed canvas
(To manage the scroll bar.. Have a look at set_block_property built-in)

Tab canvas(tab page hidden)

Use the SET_TAB_PAGE_PROPERTY built-in with the VISIBLE property set to FALSE, you can set it visible/invisible dynamically.
Your code should look like something like this:
SET_TAB_PAGE_PROPERTY('tab_page_name', VISIBLE, PROPERTY_TRUE);Tony

Regarding creating a Tabbed Canvas that can be viewed horizontally

My current tabbed canvas is too lengthy..so i wanted to reduce teh size and dynamically at runtime i wanted to see the fields by scrolling the horizontal Scrollbar..Is it possible?

let me try to explain clearly..
I am working in Oracle forms 6i..
I have created one form which contains a tabbed canvas with three tabs..
In one particular tab there is a multi record block..the items are placed horizontally.since there are many items placed on the canvas horizontally i cannot able to view all the items at a time.. So is there anyway to sort it out? like by placing a Horizontal scrollbar and try to scroll it so that items are moved horizontally and all the items can be viewed.
I Have done this thing using a stacked Canvas earlier by placing some part of items in content canvas and the remaining moveable items in a stacked canvas and by keeping a Horizontal on the stacked Canvas i could able to view all the items by scrolling the scroll bar,Similar way i wanted to do it on the tabbed Canvas..If anyone has any valuable tips to do that you can reply me..

Venkat

The tab 1 displays a html file like it should.
The tab 4 displays the contact form but you will see the reCAPTHCA is missing.
I have really no clue why it happens, exept maybe its a PHP issue.
Maybe the script isnt compatible with non-html documents...
Can someone please tell me whats the problem and if there is a solution????
How do i change this button?
I used this in my previous site:
<table class="Button" >
     <tr>
     <td style="padding-right:0px" title ="Home">
     <a href="#" title="Home" style="background-image:url(/Buttons/Home.png);width:172px;height:75px;display:block;"><br/>
     </a></td>
     </tr>
</table>
But the dynamic script uses {title} to get the <title> out of the xml.
I tryd to put this straight into the title tags in the xml but obviously it wont work.
And i really dont have a clue how to change this.
My button has a mouseover img. Basicly its 2 buttons in 1 img stacked on top of each other.
Like this: http://www.wientjesvoegwerk.nl/Buttons/contact.png
Because of the CSS script it hovers to the right position.
Part of SOURCE CSS (Style.css)
.Button a{display:block;}
.Button a:hover{background-position:left bottom;}
a.Button {display:none}
How can i change the xml and the script so "title" can be replaced with the button.
Or how can i change the button so the mouseover works and the script still takes the button-img from the xml???
Any help would be nice, because im finnaly in a postition to finish this site, and this is the only blockade left to conquer...

Maybe it is not liking that the index page is an HTML page and not a PHP page. Try this way:
In your form.php, remove the following code:
<?php
require_once('recaptchalib.php');
$publickey = "6LfKNwwAAAAAAEdS6PjiDSHRQBDOYrGcM8R1eQQm"; // you got this from the signup page
echo recaptcha_get_html($publickey);
?>
Replace it with:
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://api.recaptcha.net/challenge?k=6LfKNwwAAAAAAEdS6PjiDSHRQBDOYrGcM8R1eQQm"></script>
    <noscript>
          <iframe src="http://api.recaptcha.net/noscript?k=6LfKNwwAAAAAAEdS6PjiDSHRQBDOYrGcM8R1eQQm" height="300" width="500" frameborder="0"></iframe><br/>
          <textarea name="recaptcha_challenge_field" rows="3" cols="40"></textarea>
          <input type="hidden" name="recaptcha_response_field" value="manual_challenge"/>
    </noscript>
The replacement code is the same code that is outputted from the recaptchalib.php file.

Runtime tab canvas does not look the same as designed in layout editor.

I created a tab canvas with the following physical properties:
Corner Style - Chamfered
Width Style - Variable
Active Style - Bold
The canvas looks nice in the layout editor, with the above properties. However, at runtime, the tab canvas seems to ignore the above properties and instead shows up with non-chamfered looking (whatever chamfered means) fixed-width rectangular tabs and the active tab page label is not in bold font. Is there a runtime setting that I'm missing here?
null

I am experiencing the exact same thing. The width of the tabs in the layout editor is varied depending on the length of the text. However, at run-time, the width of the tabs is fixed, causing the tabs to be wider than the window and a set of VCR buttons to appear in the upper right corner of the canvas. Personally, I think this is a Forms bug. Why would they intentionally let us set the width to variable at design-time only to force a fixed width at run-time?

Oracle Forms 10G(tabbed canvasses not working the same as in Forms 6i)

Hi everyone,
I have a form which gets called from another form through a list of value. The called form(second form) has a group of tabbed canvases which get displayed depending on the parameters passed from the first form.
The Form is working prefectly fine in Forms 6i but when I converted the same form in to forms 10G it does not seem to work the same way. The tabbed canvasses are not getting displayed. I am manually having to press the execute query to get data displayed in the tabbed canvasses. I checked the parameters that are being passed and they are the same as that in Forms 6i.
Please let me know where my 10G Form is going wrong. Appreciate your help, please send me an email on [email protected]
Thanks

How to change the background color of a Tab Canvas

Hi All,
I accidentally changed existing background color of a tab Canvas to ' gray' which is not matching with main canvas (which has default).
How can I change background color to default. Please help me.
-Thanks

In the property palette of the tab page, click on the "Background Color" property and click the "Inherit" button on the top of the property palette, this will revert the value of the property to the default when the tab page was created which is <Unspecified>.
But if your tab page has inherited the color from a property class it will revert to what was specified in the property class.

Tab Canvas

Hi,
I am using Forms 10g. I have Content canvas named CANVAS1 display few items from BLK1. I created a tab canvas called TAB_CAN contains TAB_PAGE1 and TAB_PAGE2, display items from BLK2
I would like to show the form in enter query mode and Form should display both CANVAS1 and TAB_CAN
Content canvas only displayed if i write in when-new-form-instance
show_view('canvas1');
show_view('tab_can');
go_item('blk2.item1);
go_item('blk1.item1)
enter-query;
tab canvas only displayed if i write code like this in write in when-new-form-instance
show_view('canvas1');
show_view('tab_can');
go_item('blk1.item1)
go_item('blk2.item1);
enter-query;
So, I request you to write a code to display both canvases and control should be in contant canvas and form should be enter-query mode.
Regards,
Murali

Hello Murali,
As you are saying you want to show a Content canvas (Canvas1) and Tab Canvas (Tab_Can) both at the same time, you need to use more than one window for this.
Actually at any instant of time, you can show only one canvas on any window. So have two windows WINDOW 1 and WINDOW 2.
In Content canvas, set the window as WINDOW1, and in WINDOW1 set the primary canvas as CANVAS1. And, for tab canvas actually you should have another content canvas(CANVAS2) on which you have placed this Tab_Can. So in content canvas (CANVAS2), set the window as WINDOW2, and in WINDOW2 set the primary canvas as CANVAS2.
It will work i feel.

Tab canvas color

Hi,
I had a form with content/stacked canvases and I converted all of them to tab so that it would be much easier for the users to view. Everything's working fine but somehow the color of all the canvases has changed to light gray. Earlier my canvases were teal (which is by default in 10g). I want to keep the default color i.e. teal, how can I do that?
Thanks in advance.

You can set all or some of the tab canvas's pages the background color you wish:
Open the object navigator , and all the tab pages of the tab canvas.
Right - click on each one - or press F4 - to activate the property palette. Change the background color as you like....
Note: you can do this in just one click..... You simply select the tab pages and preesing F4 you alter the background color.....
Greetings.

Tab canva disapear whith stacked canvas

hi guys,
in my form there is:
1. content canvas
2.tabbed canvas
when i put a stacked canvas the tabbed canvas disapear. any help?

stack canvas can not put on top of tab canvas.
what I did is to put tab canvas on content canvas and make tab canvas height very short, and then put stack canvas right below tab canvas that look like it's on tab.

Tab canvas on a content Canvas

Hi,
I need to put a tab canvas on a content canvas in 10g R2.
and have items from the same data block distributed across the canvases.
I have set them up with the appropriate viewport for the tab canvas, but at runtime, the tab canvas does not appear untill an item on it gets the focus.
Both canvases are set to the same window.
I'm sure this is possible and I think I have done it before but for some unknown reason can't seem to remember how !.
Thanks in Advance
Regards,
Tony Garabedian

Hi Steve,
Yup, it is definitely related to the window, if the window is the form's console window and the window is the first window created in the form (default window created with the first canvas mostly WINDOW1) the tab canvas is behaving in that way.
Create a new window and make sure that this window is not the console window and the behavior is very much normal, the tab canvas appears as soon as the window gets focused.
This what I have found out for now, if later testing shows anything else I'll post the results.
Regards,
Tony Garabedian
I just added a stack canvas on that same window and the problem returned....
So I rearranged the canvases, and purposely set the canvas on the console window, it worked, so now it seems that the problem appears if you have a stacked canvas AND a tab canvas on the same window.
Hope this ain't a bug it sure looks and acts like one though.

Tab Canvas on a STACKED Canvas?

Is it possible to have a tab canvas ON (IN) a stacked canvas? Or can a tab canvas ONLY be placed on a content canvas?
Thanks!

Hi,
Can you tell the requirement clearly, whether you need to create a tab canvas on stacked canvas, a tab canvas in stacked canvas.
1.Stack Canvas in Tab canvas
First you need to create a tab canvas in the content canvas then you need to create a stack canvas on the content canvas, then you need to align it properly.

Tab Canvas displaying Stacked Canvas at runtime disappears?

Hi,
I have 3 canvases that contain the following:
1) Content Canvas -- This contains the TREE item.
2) Tab Canvas -- A tab canvas with a single Tab Page
3) Stacked Canvas -- This is a Stack Canvas with a few
text items on it.
4) Single Window.
======At runtime the following actions occur: ==========
1) The Viewport of the stacked canvas is set to the
Viewport of the Tab Page on the Tab Canvas so that it
looks like the Tab Page has a vertical and horizontal
scrollbar with text items displayed.
2) A text item on the Stacked Canvas is in focus as soon
the as the form window is displayed.
===================Problem is : =====================
1) When I select a Node of the Tree Item, the Tab Canvas
automatically disappears(or becomes invisible) , as a
result the stacked canvas displayed within it at
runtime also becomes invisible. I am left with only
the Tree item being displayed.
=======================================================
PS : I have never experienced this problem with just the
content canvas and the Tab Canvas together.
Any soultion to this problem is most appreciated.
Thanks

How to change content/stacked canvases to tab canvas

Hi,
I have created a form which has one content canvas and multiple stacked canvases. The content canvas displays the first page and then we hv to click on next to go to the next stacked canvas and so on. I want to try making it in tabs (tab canvas) and then I will decide which one looks better and performs good.
Can you guys please give me a detailed instruction on how to convert my content and stacked canvases to tab canvases. I have never done tab canvas. I tried one, I changed one of my present stacked canvas to tab but all the fields and texts were gone and there were just two tabs in it.
Please suggest. Thanks in advance.

Might get a better response in the Forms forum...
