I'm using sub file an a tab and applying the find/filter, but when I do a right click and press find or filter options, the field selection does not show up at all, any idea why?

Roberto,

Some things to check:
- Are the properties turned on ('find option' and 'filter option')?
- Is it a database driven grid? If so, the find/filter options are not supported.
- Is the find/filter textbox located in an unexpected place? We have recently fixed an issue with this behavior.

Glenn,

- Properties are turned on
- It's not a database driven
- What do you mean with unexpected place ? the searching field would come up above the grid, right?

Hello,

yes in theory but if your subfile is in window, there is a little bug. And if your window pop over the textbox you would not see it

Yes, the textbox should appear above the grid. We have had a report of the textbox appearing in an incorrect position in 5.3.2. If this is the issue, we have a patch available.

Regardless of whether this is your issue, could you send a message to support@profoundlogic.com with a screendump from the screen with the find/filter not working?

Directions for obtaining a screendump (if you are not aware)..
- Navigate to the screen in question
- Press ctrl+F9
- A file named 'json.txt' will be downloaded to the location configured in your browser (or your browser will prompt you to open or save).
- Attach this file to your message

Glenn,

Great !! you all right, it's working now.

Thank you so much for your time.
Roberto.

Roberto,

So we can get the answer in the forums, could you tell us what you did to fix your issue?

Glenn

Sorry Glenn, I thought you wrote the above, basically what I did was remove the screen as a window and remove some underline header that had above the sub file, but I will install the new patch to fix that issue.

Thanks.
Roberto.

Hello,

do you already find the solution to use the Find/Filter options, when we define the screen as a window?

Only to close the circle of the previous question: Yes, in the 5.4.0 release, that problem was resolved.
