Shared Datagrid
Posted: Thu Aug 11, 2016 10:13 pm
Is it possible to have he same datagrid and content shared among many cards as a shared background control? If so, any suggestions would be appreciated
Possibly tricky. DG's are already so grouped it is hard to even understand them. But one can set the backGroundBehavior of a DG to "true" by hand, and this will permit it to be shared among cards. The tricky part is to also set the sharedText of all those fields.
So try this. Make a new stack. Put a DG on the card, and set its backGroundBehavior to "true". Put something into the contents of the DG. In the stack script:
Code: Select all
on opencard
set the dgText of group "datagrid 1" of this cd to the dgText of group "datagrid 1" of cd 1
end opencardCraig Newman
