How to set Pattern of Form through X++

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 5

Hello,

Im having trouble displaying a Dialog Drop Form through a Drop-Down Button, which calls a Display Menu Item executing this code:

        FormRun fr;
        Args args;

        args = new Args(formStr(HSO_RentalOrderTableFilter));
        fr = new FormRun(args);
        fr.init();
        fr.run();
        fr.wait();

In this case, HSO_RentalOrderTableFilter is the Form i created in the designer which is a Drop-Dialog.

The code calls the Form, however it displays the Dialog like a popup in the middle of the screen instead of a drop-dialog from the button and it just doesnt look good.

Calling the Dialog directly through the Display Menu Item has worked, but i would like to call the code from class so i can easily manipulate data from the Dialog

Maybe im missing something here, or the Dialog cant be called that way, idk

I have the same question (0)

    Hi dcopp,

    I guess drop dialog will be used inside the form only. If you call outside the form like class it won't display like drop down instead like a dialog at the center as you mentioned. Because in the class you wont have option to set the exact position where the each control will be displayed.

    Thanks,

    Girish S.
