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)

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Form when running through menu

    Hi
    I have a form - and when I run it from forms, it runs with the a toolbar up the top with icons for save, delete record etc. However when I run it through a menu (.mmb), it doesn't have this toolbar at the top. How do I make it show this toolbar when running from a menu?
    Thanks
    Martin

    Sorry, I didn't see your reply before.
    I think the problem could be that you specify No_Replace. This means that [Oracle Forms will keep the default menu module of the calling form active for the called form|http://www.oracle.com/webapps/online-help/forms/10g/topics/f1_help/builta_c/callform.html?tp=true].
    You should look into using the FORMS_PATH variable instead of using the full path to the form, it's not essential but it's more flexible. On earlier versions this is FORMS90_PATH, FORMS60_PATH etc, and is set in the .ENV file (assuming you're on webforms).

  • Default menu file defmenu.mmb

    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,
    I have Forms 6i, but i searched the CDROM and the installation directory for any .mmb file I didn't find the default menu file.
    About the forms demo could you please tell me how and from where to install it.
    Thanks,

  • Cannot query in forms when using headstart menu

    When we Generate forms from designer6i and run them without a menu, we can
    query in forms.
    When we generate a menu from desinger6i and attach it to the forms we cannot
    query in forms.
    We have set back the original objectlibrary and generated again. This does not
    help. May be it is some preference which is not correct.
    Please help.

    Daud,
    Could you give more details on your problem?
    - designer version
    - developer version
    - headstart version & additional patch numbers
    - did you get the headstart demo up and running, does the problem occur there also?
    - if not, can you generate the headstart demo components from designer to reproduce the error?

  • 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

  • How do I a form submit without losing page parametes on other portlets?

    I have a page with several portlets. How can I make one of the portlets do a form submit without losing page parameters in other portlets?
    If I do a submit only the controls in the form I have submitted are passed which means I loose parameters that where passed earlier.
    I looked at the code the portal uses for the next button and I see that it does a POST with the action being the complete current URL with existing parameters. When I do this I cannot access the form variables in my dynamic page.

    There are 3 steps to the balancing act of image weight (file size) vs image quality
    1) image dimensions (on screen height x width measured in pixels is all that counts). Smaller dimensions = smaller file size.
    2) compressed file type (JPEG for photos, PNG or GIF for everything else). Choose the right file type for your image.
    3) quality of the final compressed image - visually comparing the final image for "acceptableness" (less artifacts) vs final file size
    There are plenty of tutorials online

  • How to save Pdf form localy without internet

    How to save Pdf form localy without internet?
    I thought in the beginning about advanced user rights and pure saving them on adobe reader but i saw legal notes about 500 user who can legaly save it localy and answer to me (bu they can`t answer to my client who paid me for doing this form).
    Other thing is to do Air Application which would collect data from Pdf Form and save it (localy without internet) to use it later.
    I thought about that second possibility but i can`t find any clue to do it myself.
    Any help will be appreciated...

    Hi,
    Are you downloading responses as PDF forms after forms are submitted? If so, FormsCentral doesn't provide an option to exclude empty fields and you won't be able to save PDF forms without empty fields.
    You can use this form to "vote" on popular feature requests, or to add a new one of your own:

    Edited by: jemar98 on Aug 9, 2011 1:44 PM

    A forms developer could make those fields required with a CUSTOM.pll extension if you didn't want to use forms personalization. Both are considered customizations to standard functionality and may or may not require rework after patching or upgrades.

  • Why does this forum open in a window without the menu bar ?

    When coming to this forum trough the " Access the Java Studio Creator Community Forum" link on the "Java Studio Creator Forums" page, it opens a browser window without the menu bar. I understand that Sun thinks it's better for me not to have the menu bar, but I personally prefer to have it. What I prefer over everything else is to have the choice.
    By the way, one of the reason I prefer Sun products over Microsoft products is that I generally can choose what is better for me. Like to have or have not a menu bar, or to have my IDE in english rather that in french. (By the way, this last issue has been solved ;-))

    Use this direct URL, you can have the menu bar still --
