How to check/uncheck all checkbox in a form ?

Posted on by JFM 660

Hi,

 

I try to make a functionality for my buttons "Check/Uncheck" in a form that have a lot of checkbox.

Right now, all checkbox are AutoDeclaration=Yes and we have a method that list all controls and put change the value.

I want to change that. Don't want to change anymore the method each time we add or remove a control checkbox.

All the checkbox and my button are in the same tabPage. But in that tabpage, i have a couple of groups.

 

Someone can help me with that ? I checked the .control*() methods for now.

 

Thanks

    Hmm, so what do you want to achieve? Get a list of all checkbox-based controls on a tab page?

    If those controls are based on a table, you could create a field group with all required field a base the logic on it.

    you can list the controls in a form using:

    element.design().controlCount()

    element.design().controlNum()

    I dont see how you can see whether or not a control is on a certain tabpage though.

    However, another way is using element.form(). This gives you the TreeNode from your (running!) form. With this you can use standard AOT treenode methods to find your tabpage using a path, and recursively scan all controls within this treenode to give you your controls that you want to enable/disable.

    I got it using controlCount, controlNum.

    ControlNum returns a objet "FormControl". After i can check if its a checkbox, a group, a tab, or anything else. (ex : if (classIdGet(myVariable) == classnum(FormCheckboxControl)..)

    My function use recursivity. If i find a group or tab, i call again my method to loop for each control inside.

    Martin Drab, this form is not link on a database. We use it to generate a lot of summary datas. We check all datas we want to generate for a period, and click a button.
