Small request...

Users would like to be able to copy text in a read-only field. Highlighting the text to copy is not allowed when the record is set to read-only.

Also, somewhat related; if scroll bars could operate on a locked record, it would be nice.

As always, thanks for listening.

Wish list for Sesame 3

Not sure if anyone else has said this or wants this, but the ability to edit and do full reports from the program instead of having to go to designer.  I do a lot of reports that sometimes are changed just slightly and I don't want to have save all of them.  In Q&A I would just edit, print and not save.

What sort of slight changes are you making?

Sometimes I will change a break point or the placement of a column or make a column invisible or visible......Or even add a quick derived column.  But these changes are  are used rarely so I don't want to bother saving them.  I have a full feature report that I have set up with nice headings, columns, etc. that I just tweak once in awhile.

I'm looking forward to the proposed HTML WriteLN window in Sesame 3. If we can also have an HTML viewer as a bound text box that can be added to a form as an LE, it would be fantastic.

As always, thanks for listening.

Sesame 3 Static text boxes can already do this, Steve. You can display bound HTML in a static.

You're always a few steps ahead of us! Wink

Looking forward to using them as an HTML report viewer and for parsing .html files from 3rd parties.

Thank you!

You may have limited success with that, Steve. it's meant for very simple HTML. It's not a full rendering engine. It doesn't support CSS or that sort of thing. If you have complex HTML, use your browser - that's what it's for.

However, Sesame's HTML Viewer can do one thing your browser can't. It can run SBasic when you click a link. Turn your creativity in that direction instead.  Smiley

I couldn’t find where this has been requested before, so please forgive me if it has been…

Quite often a client, after having their database for a while, will call and ask me to put a new field in the database. So, in my cocky haste I add the new field, reconcile, and the customer is happy. Then, a bit later, I get a phone call saying every time I open the database the cursor goes to the new field rather than the field it should be going to. Of course, I then remember that when you add a new field it automatically gets placed at the top of the navigation order, you know the rest.

So, is it possible to have the new field placed in the order of where it falls within the old fields, and/ or at the bottom of the list? And, in the case of a command button, have it placed at the bottom of the navigation order rather than the top?

Thanks

Hi Brandon,

The new element should only go to the top of the navigation order if you have a custom navigation order set on that form. Given that the navigation is custom, I'm not sure if putting it at the bottom or roughly where it should be is the right call, as that might also be wrong spot. Which would lead to you getting a call saying that it's going to new element X right before old element Y after leaving element Z as X is in the second column and Y and Z are in the first(Can you tell I've gotten this call before?)

Advanced Element Selector

Action = New Selection
Select By = Element Name & Bound To Name

When the Name arrow is selected, is it possible to make the list scrollable via mouse wheel?

Also, in the case of using several tabs, is it possible to have an indication popup detailing which tab the LE is on.

Or, have it make the tab the LE is on the currently viewed tab?
