Activity (ACTIVE)

The activity operator creates a property that determines whether one of the following form elements is active:

  • Property - whether the focus is on the specified property on the form.
  • Tab - whether one of the tabs in the specified tab panel is active.
  • Form - determines whether the specified form is active for the user.

Language

To create a property that determines whether a tab is active, use the ACTIVE TAB operator. Whether a form is active is determined by creating an action using the ACTIVE FORM operator.

Examples

//Form with two tabs
FORM tabbedForm 'Tabbed form'
OBJECTS u = CustomUser
PROPERTIES(u) name

OBJECTS c = Chat
PROPERTIES(c) name
;

DESIGN tabbedForm {
NEW tabPane FIRST {
tabbed = TRUE;
NEW contacts {
caption = 'Contacts';
MOVE BOX(u);
}
NEW recent {
caption = 'Recent';
MOVE BOX(c);
}
}
}

//If the 'Recent' tab is active
recentActive() = ACTIVE TAB tabbedForm.recent;
FORM exampleForm;
testActive {
ACTIVE FORM exampleForm;
IF isActiveForm() THEN MESSAGE 'Example form is active';
}
