Clinton Posted September 4, 2006 Posted September 4, 2006 Here is what I would like: A portal showing one row that has a number of fields, and a button that will move the user from one portal row to the next. I can do this, if I choose "Show Vertical Scrollbar." It works exactly as I wish, and I just don't use borders, so the user never sees the scrollbar. In IWP however, the scrollbar is visible. What I need to know, is rather or not it is possible to use the Go [Next] Portal Row script step when the portal does not have a vertical scroll bar. I can't seem to maek the portal change rows if the bar is not there. Thank you.
K1200 Posted September 4, 2006 Posted September 4, 2006 Try adding a Go To Field script step (to one of your fields on the portal row) immediately before the Go To Portal Row [Next] step. It seems it has to be on a row before it can "go to next".
Clinton Posted September 4, 2006 Author Posted September 4, 2006 I've done both a Go To Field and a Go To Object command. The focus is definitely on the portal, but it still won't show the next row.
K1200 Posted September 4, 2006 Posted September 4, 2006 You're right. It does need the Show Vertical Scroll Bar option ... which apparently should read: Activate Scrolling for Portal. So as a second choice, just set the Pen Pattern for the portal to None and it will give the behavior you're looking for. BTW, the script needs a second Go To Field after the Go To Next step in order to unhighlight the new row of fields.
Clinton Posted September 4, 2006 Author Posted September 4, 2006 This is fine, if someone is accessing through the client. But, really, I was hoping that I could make this work with IWP. The scrollbar will always be visible in IWP regardless of borders/colors/etc. I can do some lengthy workarounds to get the functionality I want, but the main question I had was whether or not the "Go Portal Row" script step could be made to work on a portal that did not have a scrollbar, and it appears the answer is "no." Thanks.
