UI: controls we dream of...

[Former Member]

... and are missing in SAP Business One.

Hi all,

every now and then, I would like to use a control which exists in VB .Net and I am thrown back on the few controls available in current SBO.

If everybody could post the controls he would like to have most, maybe SAP can include some of them in a future version. (Please)

Kind of like a wishlist.

Please include the control you would like to have most.

Thanks Lutz Morrien

- popup menu (right click on matrix)

- functionality of matrix fully available

- hourglass

I think those are my main pains right now.

Thinking about it,

I would love a panel control which acts like a container for other controls. (i.e. setting panel.visible=false will set all contained controls to false)

That one would help a lot.

OpenFileDialog and TreeView are must haves as well,

I'd like a date picker.

And I definitely agree with Lita on a stronger matrix. Filling a matrix without a database connection takes forever. It also would make sense if the matrix could contain objects (collection) instead of simple types.

I wish for a "webbrowser control".

Of course, an improved form editor. Or perhaps an utility like Screen Code Generator for VS.Net.

I think is the worst side of programing with SBO SDK.

Talking about controls, I totally agree with Mark.

I would like to see the ability to "dock" controls, so that you can control how the controls are placed when a form is resized. Also it would be nice if the rectangle control had the ability to resize when the form resizes, as currently you need to write code to cater for this. Another nice feature would be to allow user defined UID's for columns in a matrix using the Screen Painter, currently all columns have the UID "col0", "col1" etc.. and this is a headache when you have a form containing several matrixes.

Lita, regarding the column names...

if you create an xml file with the screen painter, you can replace the existing column names with the one's you would like to use.

In worst case, save form as xml and then replace names.

Hi all

It's possible to continue make wishes about matrix for a long time. F.e. it's necessary to have possibility for groupping a number columns under one title ( or, at least, a many-row titles for columns). It's important for screeen reports. And more events, like : AddLine,DeleteLine etc.

Best regards,

Mark

Hi Lutz,

Yeah I could manually change the column UID's in the XML file, but this is rather painful when you have a form with several matrixes and as you know, during development & testing forms can be changed quite a few times - one of my forms has 7 matrixes! Hopefully this will be fixed in the next release of SBO.
