Hi,

I want to ask about few properties on the form:

in CustTable form (pattern: Details Master), i have 5 questions:

1. What is this target control for the quick filter? what does it do?
 
2. What is this listStyle grid used for ? where can i see it in the UI?
 
3. What is this filter expression %1 used for? what does it do?
 
4. How does this filter work? I created a similar form to custTable, however when i type sth in the form filter, nothing appears why? what is missing?

However, in CustTable, if i type sth, there is search result

 
 
5. /Arrange method/ on tab and tab header? because i created a similar form where i tried where both are auto and both are vertical but i didn't see any difference


I have the same question (0)

    Hi,
     
    1. this property is used to select the grid for which the filter is to be applied.
    2. you can show it when you open the details page
    3. FilterExpression is what we enter in the filter box and you can not fill in complex filter expressions in the field.
    4. to make it work you must set Default column & target control
    5. in this case i think this link can ive you some hints 
     
    Best regards,
    Mohamed Amine MAHMOUDI

    Hi,
     
    I see some questions are not answered. Let me try to help with some of them:
     
    3. The default value (if you leave it blank) will be %1. So there is no difference between an empty property and using the value %1.
     
    4. Can you share a screenshot so we can verify if you used the object names used in your form?
     
    5. This property is mainly useful for e.g. form group containing multiple fields. or a tab page containing multiple field groups.
