Hi all

I have this portal with projectlines in it. For every projectline the user can input a description. Since it's too big to put in the portal I would prefer a button on the projectline. This button must enable the user to click it and enter the description. (in a pop-up or so?)

How can I do that? Is there an example I can use to point me in the right direction?

Thanks !

Create a script that uses the Go to Related Record step with the new window option enabled to open the projectline related record in a new window, then change to a layout that displays the description field.

Pu this script onto a button in the portal.

Thanks.

I've got the window for inputting the description now.

the script (see attachment) opens a new layout.

But can I disable the topmenu from this layout?

Thx

Just use the 'Show/Hide Status Area' script step.

Go to the FMI web site link below and download the Script Reference and Function Reference documents for your version of FMP. The information you need is all in there.

Thank you.

The show/hide did work.

Strange is that if I explore this database via webpublishing the window-size of the descriptionfield don't work anymore and it resizes to the entire screen.

Why is this?

Thanks for helping me

Much appreciated
