Hide and show tab canvas

Is it possible to disable all the tabs in a tab canvas in Forms 10g?
I am developing a new form in Forms 10g. Problem is with hiding and showing tab canvases.
I have a main canvas and a tab canvas.
In the when-new-form-instance I need to hide the two tabs. I have a list item that has two values. Based on the value chosen in the list I need to show the tab canvas. How can I do it. I tried hide_view and show_view. It gives me an error FRM-41053. Cannot find canvas Invalid ID.
Help is appreciated. Thaks in advance
Anu

If you are looking to hide individual tabs on a tabbed canvas, refer to SET_TAB_PAGE_PROPERTY

Content canvas and a stacked canvas moving when scroll through the details

Dear Friends
I have Mater and Details Block , and I have two canvas content canvas and a stacked canvas, and the a stacked canvas on top of content canvas , and I have set the horizontal and vertical scroll bar for the stacked canvas , my problem is that when I inquire and click on the details block which is on stacked canvas the header content canvas is moved up
and what I want the header to be stable and not moving when scroll through the details .
Best regards
Jamil Alshaibani

if the canvas is moved during runtime in general the problem is that is does not fit completly in the window. Try to adjust your window-size so that the whole layout fits into it.

Tabbed canvas on a tabbed canvas

Is it possible within 10g forms to place a tabbed canvas on the tab page of another tabbed canvas? I am not seeing a way to do it, but I if someone else has an idea about this, it would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
c

Thank you for the input. I have a three tabbed main canvas and on the first tab page I have two blocks in a master-detail relationship. The detail block has so many fields displayed that putting another field on it would be difficult without decreasing the size of the other fields or increasing the size of the window and canvas which would in turn effect the other tab pages and all other forms using the same window size. If I were to use the tab canvas on a tab page of the main tabbed canvas would I need to shrink up the main canvas in any way to display the topmost canvas, which represents the detail block, at the bottom of the page? I would still need to display the entire tab page of the main canvas for the sake of the other tab pages or else wouldn't shrinking the main canvas briefly mess up the coordinates of the other fields displayed on the other tab pages?
Also how do I specify that I want the details tabbed canvas to display on the first tab page of the main tabbed canvas? I didn't see in the property palette of the details tabbed canvas an option to tell it to display on a tab page of the main tabbed canvas.
Thanks,

Tab canvas inside a tab canvas

Anyone knows how to put a tab canvas inside a tab canvas.
thanks.

I did a little test and it works (it'll only take you 3 min)
Create a new Form.
Add 3 Canvases 1 Content and 2 Tab with the following Properties
Content
Vieport X Position on Canvas: 0
Vieport Y Position on Canvas: 0
Width: 540
Height: 324
Master Tabs
Vieport X: 35
Vieport Y: 20
Vieport Width: 460
Vieport Heigth: 280
Detail Tabs
Vieport X: 150
Vieport Y: 95
Vieport Width: 260
Vieport Heigth: 160
Then go to Layout editor and while viewing the Content Canvas go to the menu View -> Stacked View...
From there select both tab canvases to be shown.
Also add a dummy item (i.e a button )somewhere in the form otherwise nothing will appear when you run the form.

How do put a stack canvas inside the tab canvas

Hi all,
I have content canvas and tab canvas Now i want to put a stack canvas on the tab canvas .suppose tab canvas page are Page1,page2, page3 when i click the page1 then display the stack canvas 1,and when i click page2 then
display stack canvas 3 ..... so on. help me to find the solutions to this Issue
Thanks

You would use the when-tab-page-changed trigger to use hide_view and show_view commands to hide one stacked canvas and show another.
Just keep in mind that for a canvas to be displayed, the cursor must be in an item on that canvas, or at least in an item NOT covered by the canvas.

Place a Tab Canvas within a Tab Canvas

Oracle Forms 6i.
I have a requirement to put a tab canvas within a tab canvas. However when I try to create a tab canvas within a tab canvas i get a 'FRM-13002: Stacked and Tab canvases must be created within content canvases.'
Does anyone know of a way to achieve this?

Got it working thanks.
For anyone that wants the code:
WHEN-TAB-PAGE-CHANGED - Form Level Trigger
declare
     tb_name varchar2(30);
begin
     tb_name :=get_canvas_property('CANVAS1', topmost_tab_page);
     if tb_name = 'TAB1' then
          show_view('CANVAS1');
          show_view('SUB_CANVAS1');
          go_item('BLOCK1.FIELD1');
     elsif tb_name = 'TAB2' then
          hide_view(''SUB_CANVAS1');
go_item('BLOCK1.FIELD2');
     end if;
end;

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...

Multiple master blocks populating the same detail blocks

Hey guys. Im doing something a little weirder than I usually do but I can't get it to work correctly and im wondering if any of you have accomplished this before.
I have a call center application which processes applications by either the application or by follow up. The application and follow up are each a block by themselves located on a separate pages on a tab canvas. Both these blocks are master blocks to the detail blocks which would be user_phones, user_addresses, user_bank_accounts, etc. The idea is I can use either page of the tabs and flip through either the follow up, or application master block and have it populate the user tables according to the user_id found on the master blocks. I figured I could use a when-new-block-instance trigger to switch off which block fires the on-populate-details trigger.
The problem is.... complicated. If I go to the follow up block and execute query, it brings back the right information on the detail block. The strange thing is it seems like when I move the cursor to a different record on the same block, forms is almost setting a SET_BLOCK_PROPERTY DEFAULT_WHERE action. This is un-noticeable until i go to the other master detail block. When I start using the applications block, it seems like all the detail records actually MATCH the user_id that the cursor was on in the follow up block...
phew! thats a lot of description for such a strange problem..
Anyways. Anyone encountered this before? Has anyone ever built a two master block form to populate the same detail block? Is it possible? I haven't found a thread in the forum about this subject..
Any help would be great. Thanks in advance :)

Having one detail block for two master blocks was never a use case that we considered for Forms. It sounds like you are trying to make a many-to-many relationship work with two master blocks. I suggest you think about having an intermediate block (hidden or not) that drives the detail block and make each master block drive that intermediate block instead of driving the detail block directly.

Tab canvas within a tab canvas? Can it be done?

Hello,
I am working in forms 10g. A customer has given me a mock up that contains a tab canvas within a tab on another tab canvas. Is this even possible? If so, can you outline the steps to do so please?
Thanks,
Adam

It is possible, but you cannot create tab-canvas 2 on top of tab canvas 1. Create both tab-canvases on top of the content canvas, the at runtime use SHOW_VIEW and HIDE_VIEW to show or hide the second tab-canvas as needed.

Master on a View and Detail on a Table

I have a master form and a detail tabular form attached to it - together, on the same page. Form is based on a view and the tab form is based on a table. Whenever an update needs to be done, then on the tabular form - detail record.
If I try to create a new detail record it works fine and saves it. If I want to delete it is fine as well. The only thing that doesn't work is applying changes to an existing record. It fails with the following message:
Error in mru internal routine: ORA-20001: Error in MRU: row= 1, ORA-20001: ORA-20001: Current version of data in database has changed since user initiated update process. current checksum = "9F37DC19F8CD77C45A33036B7E423248", item checksum = "30DA90A7EFF6043FDCBB542183ACE8BA"., update "DEVELOPER"."SYN_LOG_MANIFOLD_PLANING" set "PRIMKEY" = :b1, "ORDER_NUMBER" = :b2, "S_GROUP" = :b3, "MANIFOLD_SHAPE" = :b4, "LENGTH" = :b5, "WIDTH" = :b6, "HEIGTH" = :b7, "NOZZLE_QTY" = :b8, "NOZZLE_TYPE" = :b9, "ZYLINDER_QTY" = :b10, "ZYLINDER_TYPE" = :b
I think I have seen this befor, but still couldn't find the answer. Any ideas?

Got to answer my own question myself.
I found the problem to be in a column included in the tab form. In the report atribute it was set to hideen. However, in the properties of the column it was still saying Tabular Form Element / Display as: Date Picker...... Usually no problem. But in my case, this column is updated by an on insert trigger, which inserts the record creation date. I assume that this is the reason why the error popped up when I tried to update the record. As soon, as I removed the column from my query or set it to hidden, my form was working.

Creating tab canvas inside another tab canvas

pleas help me solving the issue...
I want controlling code such that i can create tabpage canvas into another one.
second tab page of first tab canvas it should be visible.
regards
jai

As long as i know something like this is not possible.
But you can emulate it this way (for this example i will assume that you want the smaller tab-canvas placed on the second page of the bigger tab-canvas) :
1. create a tab-canvas
2. create a stacked-canvas with bevel=none
3. create a new tab-canvas and place it on your stacked-canvas
4. make the stacked-canvas invisible
5. through the trigger WHEN-TAB-PAGE-CHANGED make your stacked-canvas visible whenever you are on page 2 and invisible whenever you are on another page.
6. adjust the coordinates of your stacked-canvas so it will appear right above the bigger tab-canvas
Good luck with this

Sharpen in "workflow options" and "Detail" tab

how does the sharpen within workflow options relate to the sharpening applied within the detail pane?
Does one override the other or would the sharpening be additive?
thanks.

>I probably would never use the workflow settings, especially since they are not well defined settings, and I assume for "general" office work...
In my opinion, the workflow options for output sharpening in ACR are rather awkward to use. One advantage of parametric editing is that the edits are stored in the ACR database or in the XMP file in a compact form without the necessity of large and possibly multilayered TIFF files. After making the required edits, one has repurposable masterfile that can be used for derivative images.
However, when one uses the ACR output sharpening, the dimensions of the image and the resolution must be determined in advance. One then has an output file that is suitable only for printing that specific image, and repurposibility is lost.
Furthermore, the output sharpening in ACR requires the setting of the resolution in pixels per inch. When printing to a relatively large output size, one usually renders the image at the native resolution of the camera and then sets the image dimensions of the picture without resampling. In the ACR workflow one must manually calculate the needed output resolution from the intended output size in inches and the native resolution of the camera in pixels.
For example, if one is using a Nikon D3 camera with a resolution of 2832 x 4256 pixels and wants to print on super B paper with a short axis dimension 12.5 inches, it is necessary to predetermine the required resolution in pixels per inch by dividing 2832 by 12.5 to obtain the needed resolution of 227 pixels per inch. One enters this value in the ACR dialog box.The result is an image that is suitable only for printing at that size.
Personally, I would prefer to use ACR to make a repurposable masterfile which can later be resized and output sharpened as necessary. Currently, I use PKSharpener for this purpose.
It would be nice to be able to store several possible output options in the XMP file or database, and this is currently not possible. For example, one might want to store settings for 8 by 10 or 11 x 14 inch prints.
