Stacked canvas with horizontal scrollbar

Hi,
In a forms module I want to show a stacked canvas with a horizontal scrollbar. I have set the generator preference POPHSB on every level to yes, but the stacked canvas is still generated without scrollbar. In the Designer help topic "Generated stacked canvas properties" it is stated that the properties horizontal/vertical scrollbar is derived from the object library. But how can I set in Designer the name of an object library object for a stacked canvas? I don't want to override the object CGSO$CANVAS_POPUP because I also have other stacked canvases that doesn't need scrollbars.
Regards,
Vincent Botteman

Hi,
This is what I just have found: you must indeed create a new canvas object in the object library and then enter the name of the new canvas object in the property "Placement Template/Library Obj" of the first Module component on that canvas! Apparently, you can change the canvas by means of the first Module Component on that canvas.

Stacked Canvas with one block displaying twice

I have a question regarding the Stacked Canvas. I have to create a calender for clients. (I am using stacked canvas to do that).
In the 'calender' table i would have the information like ClientID, Year, weekno, start date, end date.
So i created two blocks for 'Calender' table in this form. One block for Content canvas with ClientID and Year (Block1). And another block (Block2) on Stacked canvas for weekno, startdate and enddate.(normally there will be 52 weeks sometime 53 weeks)
On the Block1 it suppose to display the ClientID and Year once. And in the block2 (stacked canvas) it suppose to display 53 rows with weekno and the start/end dates.
When i create a new row in the block1 for clientid and year (1234, 2008) then the block2 will be populated with 01-jan-2008 to the 31-dec-2008. But the problem i am having is when i try to save it is trying to save two times one from block1 and once from block2 resulting in a unique constraint error.
how should i structure this so it saves only once?
I tried to keep the clientid and the year in block1 as non-database items and copied those values into the block2, that way it saves correctly but when i try to query on the upper block it gives me error.

But you only have one table. You need two tables for master-detail. Can you normalize the calendar table and change it to two tables (master-detail).
See
Re: regarding display of records in header and line level
Gerd offers a solution for two blocks and one table. Maybe that will work for you.

If i remove the width, the selectmanylistbox horizontal size is based on length of longest value. But I dont want to remove the width, as it affects my page and style of my page.
I just need to know how can i add horizontal scrollbar to af:selectmanylistbox

Page Viewer Web Part with horizontal scrollbar

Hi,
I added a page viewer webpart to a sharepoint 2013 website and placed a reporting services report url on it, however in some users the browser shows a horizontal scroll bar and cuts the report area. This is not version related because
I can see it well in IE10 in one user and in others it shows the reported problem.
Seems to be browser settings. Any ideas?
Thank you

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that some users’ browser shown a horizontal scroll bar in the page view web part.
You can disable the horizontal using the CSS style as the following.
<style type="text/css">
#WebPartWPQ3 {
OVERFLOW-X: hidden !important
</style>
Note: the WebPartWPQ3 is the webpart ID.
You can find the ID as the following thread:
http://sharepoint.stackexchange.com/questions/29649/disable-horizontal-scroll-bar-on-navigation-web-part-in-sharepoint-2010
Instead of using page viewer web part, you can also use the content edit web part with IFrame, and some JavaScript to achieve it.
For more information:

There is a similar thread for your reference.

JComboBox with Horizontal ScrollBar

Hi all,
I created this custom ComboBox:
import com.sun.java.swing.*;
import com.sun.java.swing.plaf.basic.*;
public class myCombo extends JComboBox{
    public myCombo(){
        super();
        setUI(new myComboUI());
    public class myComboUI extends BasicComboBoxUI{
        protected ComboPopup createPopup(){
            BasicComboPopup popup = new BasicComboPopup(comboBox){
                protected JScrollPane createScroller() {
                        return new JScrollPane( list, ScrollPaneConstants.VERTICAL_SCROLLBAR_AS_NEEDED,
                                ScrollPaneConstants.HORIZONTAL_SCROLLBAR_AS_NEEDED );
            return popup;
{code}
When i add this ComboBox to a Frame, it has a look and feel diffrent from the others component !
How to resolve that ?

Question about stacked canvas disappearing

Hi,
I have a block which has some database items and non-database items. Since
there are many items in the block, I use a stacked canvas with horizontal bar
to display the less important items.
In the trigger of new-block-instance, show_view('stacked_canvas')
But I face one problem. When I click on a non-database item and then move
the cursor away from the item, the stacked canvas suddenly disappears.
Any idea ?
Many thanks in advance

Imagine each canvas as a piece of paper stacked on a desk. Each piece of paper possibly has a different size and the top left corner of each piece is possible oriented in a different spot. When you say show_view('stacked_canvas') its like reaching to the bottom of the pile and putting that canvas top. When you click on an item not on the stacked canvas that items canvas is placed on top. Your problem is that your non-database item content canvas is covering up the stacked canvas. I think...
Your issue could be solved by simply rearranging the canvas order by putting the stacked canvas last (I think) in the object navigator.
Raise on Entry could also be causing your issue. Go to the help. Click the search tab. Type "raise on entry". Read "Working with the Raise on Entry Canvas Property". There is a good explanation in there on how stacked canvases get covered up by content canvases and when.

Stack Canvas Horizontal Scroll Bar

Hi There,
I'm using Forms 6i (Rel.2) and i am facing a problem with may stack canvas's horizontal scroll bar at runtime, as follows:
As I put the cursor on an Item inside the stack canvas, and try to scroll away to the left where that Item is no longer viewable, and then stop scrolling, the scroll back will jump back to that Item,so I have to press and hold the mouse on the scroll bar as long as I need to see other Items at the far end! I tried to set the "Raise on entry" property to "YES", but no success.
I tried the same in Forms 5 and it works fine with no problems at all!!!
Any suggestions?

Hi,
My colleague found out that a timer I had programmed in a calling form to show the current time was actually refreshing every one second and in doing that it was refreshing the whole view which caused it to jump back to the first item. I had to remove the timer and it's working fine now.
Thanks again,
Ali

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
Sharath

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?

Show Content and Stacked canvas?

Hello to all,
I have a very simple form:
- 1 datablock
- 1 window
- 2 canvas: the main (content) and a stacked one with all the items.
- I want to have a multirecord view.
As I have lots of items... and I need to show all of them in a specific format (all in the same line), I need to add an horizontal bar. That's why I added the stacked canvas to my form.
In my block properties I've added a vertical scrollbar (it's the only item in the main canvas)...
The idea is to show in the same window the horizontal and vertical scrollbars...
but.. I don't know why.. when I run the form I only see the stacked canvas with the items...
Any idea?
I'm sure it's an easy question.. but.. :-P
Thanks.

hi
try something like this.
GO_BOCK('BLOCK.ITEM_NAME');
HIDE_CANVAS('CANVAS_NAME');
SHOW_CANVAS('CANVAS_NAME');sarah

Long canvas with scroll bar

Hi. I have a form with a very long canvas containing more items than fit on the screen at a time - meaning some items are far down on the canvas and do not appear unless the user physically uses the mouse and scrolls down. This causes a problem for me because as the user tabs through the various fields the cursor will eventually "appear" to disappear. It has not actually disappeared of course, but it has simply navigated to an item that is further down on the canvas out-of-sight. Thus the user must recognize that this has happened and then use the mouse to scroll down and find the cursor again.
Is there a way to automatically coordinate this scrolling so that the cursor always stays in view for the user - meaning that the user will never have to manually scroll down to find the cursor? Or worst case, can I programatically scroll down for the user so that the cursor always remains visible?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. If you have any sample code please send it to: [email protected]
Thanks in advance.

-> 3) Changed the default Window width to 5 and it's height to 12
Don't do that. That apparently guarantees the problem you have.
The Window size should be no larger than will fit on the user's screen, and the user running the lowest screen resolution should be your target. We create forms no larger than will fit on the 800x600 layout. Our forms always use the Real,Pixel coordinate system, and I create forms with the window size set to a maximum of 784x442. Those reduced numbers allow the form to fit within a browser window in web forms. Our forms run under both 6i Client/Server AND Web, and there is a pre-form that adjusts the web form window size a little larger, but that is all.
Also, when you run your form, that scrollbar you see is there because your window is not maximized. Our forms always maximize the window, and even have a when-window-resized trigger with this:
<pre><font face = "Lucida Console, Courier New, Courier, Fixed" size = "1" color = "navy">DECLARE
W0 Window := Find_Window('WINDOW0');
BEGIN
If Get_Window_Property(W0,Window_State)<>'MAXIMIZE' then
Set_Window_Property(W0,Window_State,Maximize);
End if;
END;</font></pre>
The wwr trigger ensures the user never sees the Window0 border -- it is useless unless you are running a form with multiple windows, which we never do.
So.... Maximize your Window0, and then you will see the behavior I have been describing. Create a stacked canvas with a vertical scrollbar, and it will behave even better.

Hello,
When the Layout is open, just add the stacked canvas by selecting it in the tool bar and drawing its bounds onto the tab canvas.

How: Stacked Canvas on Tab Canvas ?

Hi All,
I have content canvas in which I have placed tab canvas with 5 tabs, and on one of the tab I want to place stacked canvas because I have to display multiple blocks on this stacked canvas with vertical scroll bar (This I can specify by saying Vertical scroll bar as Yes for Stacked canvas).
There is a restriction that, it is not possible to place stacked canvas on tab canvas (Possible only on content canvas), so is there any other workaround.
Please let me know if anyone has worked on similar type of screen development. Appreciate if anyone can provide some sample code.
Advance thanks for your time and help.

Hi All,
I found the solution and successfully implemented the desired functionality
DECLARE
     v_Tab VARCHAR2(1000);
BEGIN
     v_Tab := GET_CANVAS_PROPERTY('CAN_TABS', TOPMOST_TAB_PAGE);
     IF v_Tab = 'a1' THEN
     GO_BLOCK('BLK1');
          EXECUTE_QUERY;
     ELSIF v_Tab = 'a2' THEN
          GO_BLOCK('BLK2');
          EXECUTE_QUERY;
     ELSIF v_Tab = 'a3' THEN
*          Set_View_Property('CAN_STK_FIS_NET',HEIGHT,280);*
*          Set_View_Property('CAN_STK_FIS_NET',WIDTH,630);*
*          Set_View_Property('CAN_STK_FIS_NET',DISPLAY_POSITION,6,135);*
*          SHOW_VIEW('CAN_STK_FIS_NET');     *
          GO_BLOCK('BLK_FIS1_GRID');
          EXECUTE_QUERY;
END IF;
END ;
I have seperately created stacked canvas 'CAN_STK_FIS_NET' and placed multiple blocks as per requirement and able to achieve the functionality.
Please let me know if any one need any detail explanation.

Horizontal scrollbar in forms

Hi All,
Working on 6i forms. We have vertical scroll bar which lets us scroll down from first to last record in a block. What do we have if we want to scroll from first field to last fields of displayed record. This is assuming, we have to display say, 20 fields for one record and all can't be shown on screen at one time... similar to what we have in say Excel Sheets.. even the property palette of a object ( when we reduce width of property palette window).
Came across scroll view, but that scrolls whole page/view/canvas ( including the buttons that are triggering the scroll action, anything else on that page). We want to just scroll thru the records field (as in case of vertical scrolling). Any ideas?
Any inputs would be appreciated.
Thanks & Regards.

used a stacked canvas with the scroll view. On the conetent canvas put the fields you don't want to scroll. on the stacked canvas put the fields that will scroll.
Designer generates those nicely.

Horizontal scrollbars behaving oddly

This is not a complete show-stopping bug but Logic Express (9) recently started having issues with horizontal scrollbars -- they center themselves. Occasionally they work as they are supposed to, but most of the time they immediately return to the center, which is really irritating after a while. I'll be scrolled all the way to the end of the timeline for example, and I decide I want to scroll back left slightly; I click on the scrollbar and any kind of drag makes it jump back to the center. It acts like the mouse cursor was there, too.
Reinstallation and trashing preferences did not fix the problem.

Same problem here, but it seems also related to the screen in use, at least in my setup. I'm running Logic on my MacBook with a native screen resolution of 1200x800. I have a second screen attached above it with a resolution of 1920x1080 which I use for the main Arranger screen, the MacBook screen itself is mainly used for displaying the mixer and AU's.
When the arranger screen is on my larger display the horizontal scrollbar is flying all over the place when I try to move it, but when I have the arranger window on my MacBook's screen it behaves normally. Seems like if Logic gets confused by the different widths of the screens, like if it is behaving to have 1200 pixels to scroll on while there are 1920.
Whatever happens, it's kind of annoying...
