Text Item next to radio group

I have a radiogroup with 2 values set to diaplay on the same line (i.e. no of columns = 2).
I've then got a display only item with no label next to it (begin on new line = NO and new field = NO)
My problem is that the display only item displays below the radiogroup despite the column have more than enough space to diaplay it on the same line.
Any idea's how I can make sure it displays on the same line?

Yes it would work but the reason that I've not done that before, is that I've got items above and also below that I'm trying to control the alignment of.
I'd hoped to be able to add the item to the right of the radiogroup without creating a new field as this would have resolved by layout issue.
The only way I can think that I could use you suggestion is to insert 'spacer' cells i.e. items with no prompt or display.
Is it common to have to do this within HTMLDB?
(I'd prefer not to use the stop/start item as I'd then have to become more explicit about column widths which I'd rather not do)

Cannot enable the text item after disable it in Forms 6i

Hi All,
I want to enable/disable the text items depending on the value of the radio group. Since the text items and the radio group are on different tab page, so I place the following code on the WHEN-TAB-PAGE-CHANGED trigger, to do this:
if :recordgroup ='P' then
set_item_property(item1, ENABLED,PROPERTY_TRUE);
set_item_property(item1, NAVIGABLE,PROPERTY_TRUE);
elsif :recordgroup ='K' then
set_item_property(item1, ENABLED,PROPERTY_FALSE);
set_item_property(item1, NAVIGABLE,PROPERTY_FALSE);
end if;
When recordgroup is 'K', item1 is disabled, then when recordgroup has changed to 'P', item1 is still disabled.
Both recordgroup and items are database items.
How come like this?
Thanks is advance,
Vanessa

Hi Vanessa, you must use a "when-radio-changed" trigger, and you need to know what properties of a item are afected when you change any one of this, for your problem ...
if :recordgroup ='P' then
set_item_property(item1, ENABLED,PROPERTY_TRUE);
set_item_property(item1, NAVIGABLE,PROPERTY_TRUE);
-- Add this line:
Set_Item_property(item1, Update_Allowed, Property_True);
elsif :recordgroup ='K' then
set_item_property(item1, ENABLED,PROPERTY_FALSE);
-- If you want, you can delete this line:
set_item_property(item1, NAVIGABLE,PROPERTY_FALSE);
end if;
try it!

User Interface Localizer - Radio group bug

When I click "Next" or "Next Untranslated" on the last item in a radio group, the User Interface Localizer crashes. I have CVI 9.1.1.
I know the workaround but thought it worth reporting.

How can i get names of buttons in radio group

Could you please help me in the matter that by giving the name of radio group, we can get the names of the radio buttons in that group.
Thanks for Help,
Riaz Ahmad

U can use below mentioned program unit to get the item type of a block.
It even returns Radio Group in case the item is a radio group.
DECLARE
     cur_itm VARCHAR2(80);
     cur_block VARCHAR2(80) := :System.Cursor_Block;
     cur_itm_type VARCHAR2(80);
BEGIN
     cur_itm := Get_Block_Property( cur_block, FIRST_ITEM );
     WHILE ( cur_itm IS NOT NULL ) LOOP
     cur_itm := cur_block||'.'||cur_itm;
     cur_itm_type:=get_item_property(cur_itm,ITEM_TYPE );
     if cur_itm_type='RADIO GROUP' then
     set_radio_item_property('rg1','rb1',VISUAL_ATTRIBUTE,<name>);          end if;
cur_itm := Get_Item_Property( cur_itm, NEXTITEM );
     END LOOP;
END;

Read Only Display of Radio group and Text area with counter not working

Hello,
I am using Apex 3.2, with 10g for the database
I have this form, with fields that will set to read only when status = 'closed'
All of the fields display as read only except for 2. I cannot figure out why this is not working correctly.
1st field is Issues that is a text area with character counter, with a sql query behind it, that is set to null unless the query is pulling in the data.
2nd field is Status which is a radio group that will not display as read only when status = 'closed'
I have other fields on the form with the same format and they change to read only when the status = 'closed', I have even copied the pl/sql expression from one field to these fields and it still doesn't work correctly. I have also tried javascript for an on load event, which works, but once I click on the save button, it disables all of the page items, which works correctly, but I purposely forget to enter information, to make sure the validations are firing correctly, which it does, but the script disables everything, not allowing me to correct the errors. The javascript is firing on the on page load event.
Any help on this is greatly appreciated.

Dung,
That API seems to have a bug, it returns true/false/null, so you could use 'return not nvl(htmldb_util.current_user_in_group(p_group_name => 'APP Admin'),false)' to get a false value.
Unfortunately there's another problem: using the read-only attributes for checkbox or radiogroup item makes them hidden. My suggestion would be to create another item that has disabled="disabled" in the HTML Form Element attribute in the item definition and display that item or the non-disabled item alternately, using conditions based on the current_user_in_group logic.

Mandatory is checked when exiting radio groups, but not text fields?

I have a form with many questions, and most all of them are required. When tabbing out or otherwise exiting a radio group, the user gets warned if they did not select an item. When tabbing out of a text field, nothing happens. The user does get warned about the empty text fields if they try to submit the form.

The following is a very basic/general script used to check/test if a field's value is null after the user exits out of the field. Note that it will not prevent the user from submitting the form, however, it seems you are covering that "validation" via other means (i.e. field property).
if (this.rawValue == null){
xfa.host.messageBox("Please enter a value in this field. It can't be left empty", "REQUIRED", 0, 0);

Setting value of items based on a radio group selection

Hi,
I have a radio group with 3 values (let's say A, B, C)... at the moment I have dynamic actions set to hide and unhide items based on the selection from the radio group...
e.g when value A is selected then only item_1 and item_2 are displayed, when value B is selected then only item_3 and item_4 are displayed... and so on...
idea was to let users to only enter information related to specific selection... but with what I currently have, users can select option A from the radio group and can enter information in item_1 and item_2 and then they can change there minds and select option B and start entering information in item_3 and item_4 and when they save the form they potentially could have information in all items (item_1 to item_4 and so on)...
Is there a way I can set the value of certain items to null based on the selection from the radio group... e.g when user select option A, then values of item_3 and item_4 be set to null and if they select option B, then values of item_1 and item2 be set to null...
Please advice how to approach it the best... I would appreciate a step by step solution as I am a new bee...
Thanks in advance

Hi,
You can hide and disable other items.
Disabled items values are not submitted.
And you can create after submit computation that set NULL to item session state according your radio group state

Want null radio group item on same line with other horizontal radio sels

I have a 4 selection radio group. They need to go horizontally. And I got that with 4 "columns". If a selection needed to be reversed to null there needs to be a selection for that function. The "display null value" works great for that. But there's just one thing,
the null selection appears first on a line by itself. On the next line are the rest of the radio selections.
what's the trick to getting the null selection on the same line as the rest of them? (Ideally at the end).
I've been looking but I can't find the answer. (We need an faq for this kind of thing.)

Hi,
That depends on what you are using to generate the radio buttons.
If you are using a static list, do something like:
STATIC2:A;A,B;B,C;C,D;D,None;The "None;" at the end will generate a "None" radio button with a null return value
If you are using SQL, do something like:
SELECT ENAME d, EMPNO r
FROM EMP
UNION ALL
SELECT 'None' d, NULL r
FROM DUALThe second SELECT will append a "None" radio button with a null return value
In either case, untick the "Display Null Values" option as it is no longer needed. Note that this option creates a separate TR row in the table that contains the radio buttons, so would always appear on a separate row from the other radio buttons.

Dynamic Action not triggering on Radio Group change

I have a form that contains a text item, a radio group item and a display-only item. I have created a single dynamic action "CHANGE SUBJECT" associated with both the text and radio group items that updates the display-only item's value whenever either is changed. The action fires properly when the text item is changed, but not when the radio group is changed. If I set the radio group item's "Page Action when Value Changed" property to "Redirect and Set Value", than everything works, but that is not the desired behavior as that requires a refresh of the entire page. Any suggestions on how to make this action work? Is there a different action for the radio-group that I should be using instead of CHANGE? Thanks for your help.

OK, then change it to JavaScript Expression instead of SQL and put this code in the value :
"Radio Group Value= "+ $v('P65_RADIO_GROUP')+" - Text Box Value= "+ $x('P65_TEXT').value I tried it and it work!
Sam
Update:
I tried the same code you had before (plsql Expression) but there is something that you need to do to make it work, in the TRUE action setting , there is a "Page Items to Submit" field, you need to put your text item and radio in it as follows:
Page Items to Submit : P65_RADIO_GROUP,P65_TEXTThis should make your code work in addition to the other way I provided.
Thanks,

Radio Group With Submit.

Apex 3.2
I have an updateable report based on a collection.
One of the columns is a radio group and is the only updateable column
My code for the column is currently
apex_item.radiogroup(7,seq_id,c008)
I also have a button that fires an update process.
Ideally, I would like to get rid of the button and fire the update, after the user has changed the radio group.
So I changed my code to
apex_item.radiogroup(
              7
            , seq_id
            , c008
            , null
            , null
            , null
            , 'doSubmit(''SUBMIT'')'
            , null
            , null
            , null)
If I click on a different radio group nothing happens.
If I then click on another one, the update fires, but with the value of the previous radio.
Do I need to add something else to
'doSubmit(''SUBMIT'')'
Thanks
Gus

Submitting a page or navigating to another page is not an appropriate action to take on clicking a radio button checkbox:
Setting or clearing a checkbox changes the checkbox's state with no other side-effects. Violating this guideline by associating additional actions with the change of state frequently confuses users, because they are used to configuring data in entry controls such as text boxes, radio buttons, and check boxes and then invoking an action control such as a push button to initiate the action to process the data.
Use radio buttons to select items or options before initiating a submit using an appropriate control. Use buttons and links to submit and navigate to other pages. This enables users to consider their choice and change it before submission.

Radio group with URL for image in a table

I'm trying to display some text and an image for a radio group so the form looks like
(*) text for item 1 {image for item 1}
( ) text for item 2 {image for item 2}
( ) text for item 3 {image for item 3}
I've found these:

How to show image in radio group ?
It looks like all I have to do is create a LOV that looks like:
SELECT {complex stuff that generates the text string, img tag, and URL for image}
,DB_PK
FROM dynamic_view_for_lov -- public synonym
But, my images are stored in a table.
I have been able to create an IR using the "Column Format=BLOB" method.
The SQL for the report looks like:
select
db_pk, display_text, image_len, image_clob
from dynamic_view_for_lov -- public synonym
And the Number/Date Format for the IMAGE_LEN column is:
IMAGE:DYNAMIC_VIEW_FOR_LOV:IMAGE_BLOB:DB_PK::::::Inline:Download
My question: How do I create the URL for the img tag for the LOV?
many thanks

For the person in the future, you have to 'fake create' the Automated Row Fetch process.
The get_blob_file_src gets all the information from that Process and the column name of the Item Type that is on the same page.
I forgot where I read about that trick.
Basically, you create the Automated Row Fetch process, then 'disable' it.
Same thing with the required Item Type. Create it as a "File Type", just to tell APEX that it comes from a Database Column,.... then change it to a 'hidden' type.
You don't have to "fake' it if the application already contains the file upload item and ARF. The assumption is that the application will contain these components in order to maintain the BLOBs and you'll just reference the functional ones.

How do you select individual items from within a group?

Hi, All.
New poster. Forgive me if I miss any forum etiquette.
Currently using Indesing CS6 on Mac Osx 10.7.4
I'm a relatively recent convert to Indesign from Quark, and one thing I seem to have continual problems with is selecting individual items from within a group.
For example I will have a grouped item, such as price marker that is comprised of several individual items, some text boxes, some rectangles.
I find there is no way to select a rectangle that is currently placed behind a transparent text box without ungrouping the entire item - which isn't really an option.
The select options (slect next item below etc. just don't work)
For any Quark users out there, the equivalent command I'm looking for is the cmd+opt+shift click through, which just worked absolutely perfectly.
I have scoured the internet and forums looking for an answer for this, as I assumed it must be my own lack of knowledge, but I can't find an answer.
Any help much appreciated.
Thanks

Hi, winterm.
Thanks for the super quick repsonse. Unfortunately that hasn't seemed to have helped me.
That works fine as long as the grouped items are overlapping or apart, but not when items are entirely behind another item (ie, no part protruding from the group)
The problem is that if I double click to try and get through a text box to an item that is entirely behind it, then it just switches into text edit mode for the top text box.
If it helps, could you imagine a transparent text box that is 20x20 with red rectangle centred beneath it that is 10x10. If the 2 items are grouped I cant find any way to select through to the red rectangle without first ungrouping the two.
Am I going mad?

Filtering responses in different text fields from different radio buttons.

Once again I need some guidance with my form please.
I have a form (audit report) with numerous radio buttons with 4 options each, NA, CN, PC and C.
Each represents a different answer to the question associated with the radio button.
This answer this then passes through to a text field next to the radio buttons.
In turn at the beginning of my form I have an executive brief giving a run down on findings from the different questions asked. These are a reflection of the text fields associated with the radio buttons.
These are represented as 2 text fields namely, Non-compliant (NC), partial – compliant (PC).
What I am getting now is a whole lot of “null” answers that change when one of the radio buttons are selected and reflects that answer associated with the selection, both NC and PC text fields are the same and I then have to edit it and delete the PC from the NC section and the same for the PC section.
What I would like to happen is that all the “nulls” are hidden and only when the answer representing the NC or PC buttons are selected, that those answer get represented through to the Non-compliant (NC), partial- compliant (PC) text fields in my executive brief. IE some sort of filter for each text filed that only displays the NC or PC answers.
Any help or guidance will be appreciated.

I will explain this through an example.
In my application I have created two Select Lists.
The first select list is a select list with a submit
P3_X allows selection of 1,2,3
The page branch sets the value of P3_X with &P3_X. so that way the second select list knows what value it will be using.
The second select list P3_Y is a dynamic query that says
Select SCOL d, SCOL r from TEST1 where FCOL=:P3_X
If you were to have a third select list you would make the second Select List also a submit and have the page branch also set P3_Y with &P3_Y.
The third Select list would say select from where item=:P3_Y
Does this answer your question?

How to navigate to specific radio button of a single radio group.

Hi
i have a radio group named rdo_grp, in that radio group i had 3 radio buttons named rdo_a, rdo_b and rdo_c.
Now, when forms executes and user navigates from any text item to above mentioned radio grp, the cursor implicitly goes to first radio button ( i.e.rdo_a).
But i want to navigate the cursor to second radio button (i.e. rdo_b) when cursor navigates from any text to radio grp.
please help.
Onkar

The focus is given to the radio button that represents the value of the radio group - i.e. the cursor goes to the selected radio button, not necessarily the first button in the group. To force navigation to a particular button, I think you will have to change the value of the radio group. I don't know if that's desirable, but it could be done with a WHEN-NEW-ITEM-INSTANCE trigger on the radio group:
:rdo_grp := <value of rdo_b>;
