xBrowse Row Positioning

[PeterHarmes]

Hi,

I have an xBrowse on a database, when i press space bar i open a dialog to view the record. When I return, i refresh the browse and make sure that the scopes are set and the data is up to date. I then return to the original record I was viewing. The problem is that when the browse refreshes, the record is highlighted correctly but always at the top of the browse. Is there any way of moving the browse to the same position before i call the external routine.

I've noticed that oBrw:nRowSel return the correct row number, i just need to know how to move the browse.

Best Regards,

Pete

I've fixed it - not pretty but it sort of works

At the start of my routine

Code: Select all  Expand view

nRow   := oBrw2:nRowSel

 

At the end

Code: Select all  Expand view

        oBrw2:nRowSel := nRow   
        oBrw2:SetFocus()
        oBrw2:GoUp( nRow - 1 )
        SysRefresh()
        oBrw2:GoDown( nRow - 1)

 

If anyone knows of a better way, let me know

Regards,

Pete

Pete,

yes, would be interesting to have a ::rowOffset property to define start row to display

When we show ( or edit ) a record in a dialog and come back to the xbrowse, xbrowse on its own does not disturb the display, unless we wrote some code before getting back to xbrowse which instructs xbrowse otherwise.

This can be achieved by assigning appropriate number to oBrw:nRowSel

I tried this but it didnt seem to work - see above code how i fixed it

Mr Peter

When I return, i refresh the browse and make sure that the scopes are set and the data is up to date.

Please review this part of the code. In this part of the code, if you are not using any code that disturbs the xbrowse, when we return to xbrowse, the old row position is retained.
