Newbie learn Modal Dialog

[ezrockstar]

Hello there,

This may be simple and obvious but I'm still learning. I am just learn FM Pro Adv 11 for 10 days.

Okay, let say i have an invoice ( as i attach on file). I have invoice order layout, product is add by drop down list, and calculated by table. After i see http://www.filemaker...mlist/tag/modal, i want to add button to redirect to another layout (or popup window), this new layout is show my product list and i can select which item should choose. And after i click save, all item(s) will be show in list product on the invoice.

How can i do that?

Suggestions?

regards,

Have you looked at the Invoice sample that came with your FileMaker application?

Why did you post this to Script Triggers, when you are asking about drop down or Pop up lists and button?

Hello, mr Smith,

Yes I have looked to invoice sample of FileMaker Application.

I just want to build for myself as my exercise.

The Logic:

- I have an empty invoice.

- It contains blank invoiceID, Date, CustomerID, ProductID, Qty, Qty_Price, Total Price and Grand Total.

- I have built a selector of my product's item in drop down list.

- Now, I want to change it.

- I would put a button in top of productID. If I click that button, it will go to the new layout of list of my product's items.

- In this new layout, contains list of product_name, price, radio button to select, and 2 buttons in the bottom, save and cancel.

- I can select one or multiple items with radio button.

- If I click save, the item(s) that i choose, will show in my invoice.

- but if I click cancel, it goes to original invoice layout.

Suggestion, please..

I make a new modification in here.

I make a new layout, it call invoice_copy, i put the add button in there, and goes to Product_select layout. When i click the item list, it just make a new record on Order_products with blank value instead the default of quantity.

Need suggestion please.
