Reposition scrollbar to position before pui click refresh

Post by JacobPreston »

I have a subfile with checkboxes containing an onchange event to trigger pui.click();. When a checkbox is checked or unchecked, certain changes will be applied to the subfile record with that checkbox. In the example, i'm just changing the color for one of the fields.

Here is a video demonstrating the issue I'm having
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UfNjkCkYUl0

Is there any way I can reposition the subfile to be at the exact spot it was before the pui.click(); occurs?

Re: Reposition scrollbar to position before pui click refresh

Post by Scott Klement »

It's not clear why you're using the RPG program to change the color rather than changing it in JavaScript? Maybe you need this info in your program? Or maybe you need it to be re-drawn with the same values later?

Please remember that if you do EXFMT (or write/read) to display a screen, it has to redraw that screen. You say its "repositioning" the subfile, that's not quite accurate. It's deleting the entire screen and redrawing everything from the ground up -- including drawing a new subfile. It positions the subfile according to the same rules it would in a green-screen (5250) environment... it starts at row 1 unless you use the "subfile record number" to tell it to display starting with a different row.

So that's one way to solve the problem: Code the "subfile record number" property (the Rich DIsplay equivalent to the SFLRCDNBR DDS keyword)

On the other hand, if you changed it from JavaScript code, you could change it without submitting the screen back to the RPG, and therefore there'd be no need to redraw the subfile or anything like that. The color would just change, that's it.

This is just an example program I whipped up to demonstrate the issue. The program i'm intending on using it for was doing some other things as well, but I didn't want to post an example with extra irrelevant code.

I think I will just change it all to be done via JS to also omit the need to resubmit the screen.

Thanks for the help, Scott.
