Posted on by Awaxx 229

Hi guys,

I need to get all workspaces tiles and all their buttons control (will be stock in a table)

I wanna show all included buttons when i will select the tiles that i want in a tree. 

example : 

Tile : Bank Management

----------------> Button 1 : All bank accounts

---------------------------->Button 1.1 (child) : ...... 

---------------------------->Button 1.2 (child) : ...... 

---------------------------->Button 1.3 (child) : ...... 

...

----------------> Button 2 : Open Bank Reconciliation

---------------------------->Button 2.1 (child) : ...... 

....

and so on.

Could someone teach me how or advice me please ?

Regards.

    It's not clear which part(s) of your requirement you need help with.

    If you don't know how to iterate the controls, look at the metadata API.

    hello goshoom

    I need help for learning a way to collect all workspaces tiles in a table and collect also all controls inside those tiles.

    That's not a single task. You need to split it to smaller pieces and decide what you can do and what you don't.

    For example, maybe you know how to create a table and we don't need to waste time with it here.

    If I was you, I would start by iterating controls of a single tile. I'm assuming that you actually mean the form that opens if you click a tile, but I'm not sure.

    If you can't process a single tile, all the other steps (such as iterating all tiles or saving the information to a table) can't be done either.

    You re totally right i must be more precise.

    And you re right by focusing first on one tile (form).

    I never did the step to iterate controls from an opening form and thats what i need to learn first.

    If you could teach me that point i will appreciate

    I m on it right now and discovering the post

    I didnt understand all you did there ... but i understood that i got to use this new metadata api to reach my goal.

    Hi Martin, i am now on this task and i'm trying the code that you send on your post on metadata api.

    Should i just take it and run it on a runnable class ? or should i need something else ?

    Thank you

    Yes, you can run it in a runnable class.

    You'll likely want to call it somehow else in your final solution, but using a runnable class may be a good approach at the beginning.

    All right thanks for the help.

    This API is really incredible.

    I'm working on development where they used TREENODE but i prefer this approach.

    Thank you for this post.
