Subfile grid resizing columns

[Paul_Ramcharitar]

I'm trying to dynamically resize my subfile from it's initial set of widths. I used the methods below and the subfile did resize, but the css got messed up. The background of the rows go missing after it crosses the added width that i set.

getObj("Pre-Grid").grid.setProperty("width", 700);
getObj("Pre-Grid").grid.setProperty("column widths", "305,100,100,190,5");

Hi Paul,

Setting the "width" and "column widths" properties does not automatically cause re-rendering of the grid. We will be adding a special method to allow the grid to re-render in the next release. However, for now, as a workaround, just add the following line of code after setting the properties.

getObj("Pre-Grid").grid.setNumberOfRows(7);

Instead of 7, use the number of rows (including the header) that your grid actually has. I know there is no need to set the number of rows, but this will cause the grid to re-render, which is what you want.

I hope this helps.

Thanks a lot Alex. The workaround did the trick

Hi Alex, I have encountered a problem after using "setNumberOfRows".

I have this property, "onrowclick" set to "pui.click("viewLink." + row)". What this basically does is, go to another screen when a specific row in the subfile is clicked. ("viewLink." + row) is the ID of a link in the subfile row.

Now when I click on a row, it shows that a response is being sent, but it doesn't go to the next screen any more.

Paul,

Could you send me the dds for the screens you are having issues with? And if its possible maybe the rpg code as well. I can begin debugging it then.

[Paul_Ramcharitar]

I wont be able to give you the code or dds, but I can give you the tutorial that I followed to achieve what I wanted.

Everything was working until I used the "setNumberOfRows" method.

We just published a new version (4.1.2). The grids now have a new .render() method that you should use instead. See here: http://www.profoundlogic.com/docs/displ ... nder%28%29

I believe this will solve your problem.

Hi Alex,

The .render() method worked. Thanks!

However I had to use "getObj("Grid1").grid.render();" instead of "getObj("Grid1").render();" as stated in the documentation: http://www.profoundlogic.com/docs/displ ... nder%28%29
