Display Options Properties

Description

Display option properties for the Detail View of the grid component.

Name
Description
Detail View window position

Specify if the Detail View should be shown on the page, or in a popup window, which can either be modal, or modeless.

DIV Id

Specify the Id of the DIV in which the Detail View will be shown. You can use the {Grid.componentname} placeholder in the ID to ensure that the ID is unique when multiple Grids are running on the same page.

Pop-up window position

Specify where the window will be shown.

Pop-up window width

Specify the pop-up window size. Leave blank to use a default size that is sized to the width of the Detail View.

Pop-up window height

Specify the pop-up window size. Leave blank to use a default size that is sized to the height of the Detail View.

Animation

Specify if the window should be animated when it is shown or hidden.

Show animation style

Select the animation method to use when the window is shown. Fade and Slide use methods in jQuery core. Other options require jQueryUI.

Show animation speed

Specify the animation speed. You can select a pre-defined option (slow = 600 milliseconds, fast = 200 milliseconds), or you can enter an explicit value in milliseconds.

Hide animation style

Select the animation method to use when the window is closed. Fade and Slide use methods in jQuery core. Other options require jQueryUI.

Hide animation speed

Specify the animation speed. You can select a pre-defined option (slow = 600 milliseconds, fast = 200 milliseconds), or you can enter an explicit value in milliseconds.

Show new record if no records in query

If there are no records in the current query, should the Detail View be placed into 'Enter new record' mode?

Detail View window title

Specify text to appear in the window title bar. You can use HTML syntax in the title.

Detail View window title direction

Specify the direction. 'ltr' - (left to right) - title on left and close button on right, 'rtl' (right to left) - title on right and close button left.

Drag window opacity

When the popup Detail View window is moved, specify its opacity. 100 = solid, 0 = invisible.

Pre-fetch data for Detail View

If you choose this option, it will take a little longer for the page to display initially, but then once the page has displayed, clicking on a Detail View link will display the Detail View immediately (without a server round trip). Your browser will use JavaScript to populate the Detail View from the pre-fetched data.

Only show Detail View on request

If this option is checked, the Detail View is only shown if the user clicks a link in the Grid part. Otherwise, the Detail View is always shown.

Close Detail View after submit

Hide the Detail View after changes to the record shown in the Detail View are submitted.

Hide Grid part when Detail View is visible

Hide the Grid part when the Detail View is visible. (Checking this option will increase the speed of the page because the Grid part will not have to be computed.)

Detail View has a 'Close' link/button

Specify if the Detail View can be closed.

Close Detail View link label

Specify the label for the link to close the Detail View. If you leave this blank, or set it to 'Close', a default 'Close window' button will be displayed. Otherwise, a text hyperlink will be displayed.

Can close Detail View

Specify if the Detail View can be closed

Toolbar position

Specify if the toolbar should appear above or below the Detail View data.

Show record navigator buttons

Specify if the Detail View toolbar should show buttons to navigate to other records.

Toolbar 'Action Buttons'

Define custom buttons ('Action Buttons') to place in the Detail View toolbar.

Help window

Specify if an icon should be shown in the Toolbar to open a window that displays help for this component.

Help ID

Specify the ID of the help text to display in the window.

Help button icon

The icon displayed for the help button.

Help button bubble help

Specify the bubble help for the help button icon.

Customize the toolbar icons

Customize the toolbar icons property

Customize toolbar template

Customize the HTML template for the Detail View toolbar. This allows you to remove any of the standard toolbar buttons, or add your own buttons to the toolbar.

Scroll to Detail View

When the user opens the Detail View should the page auto-scroll to bring the Detail View into view? Only applied if the Detail View is set to display 'On Page' (rather than in a window or embedded in the Grid).

Simple style

Check this box to use a simpler version of the stylesheet which is more appropriate for a form (i.e. 'columnar') layout.

Simple style option

Specify if the simple style applies to the layout fields only, or also includes the frame that surrounds the Detail View and the toolbar background.
