====== Tabs ====== A set of **Tabs** is a type of [[Form|form]] in WorkXpress. The purpose of tabs is to contain and organize [[Form|forms]] into tabs, only one of whose content is displayed at a time. Tab options can be generated either by a list of static options or by a query of records in the database. Also, there are six options for interface style: standard tabs, ribbon options, left-hand tabs, drop-down selection options, type-to-select options, and slideshow. ===== How to Create ===== Tabs are created in one of two ways: either clicking the “Forms” button in the left hand palette and then dragging the Classic Forms button over the page's background, or, when the [[Presentation Layer|presentation layer]] is displayed, clicking on one of the blue plus icons ({{:interface-layer:form-plus.png?nolink|}}). ===== Features ===== Tab features can be edited by clicking on the blue tab icon (either {{:tabs.png?nolink|}}, {{::select-template.png?nolink|}}, {{::ribbon.png?nolink|}} or {{::left-tabs.png?nolink|}}, depending on interface choice) when the [[Presentation Layer|presentation layer]] is displayed. ==== Header Bar ==== * [[Form Setting - Title|Title]] * [[Form Setting - Display Alternate Header Text|Display Alternate Header Text]] * [[Form Setting - Form Icon|Form Icon]] * [[Form Setting - Hide Title Bar|Hide Title Bar]] * [[Form Setting - Hide Title Bar Background|Hide Title Bar Background]] * [[Form Setting - Hide Form Background|Hide Form Background]] ==== Expand/Contract ==== * [[Form Setting - Allow the Form to Be Collapsed|Allow the Form to Be Collapsed]] * [[Form Setting - Start Collapsed|Start Collapsed]] * [[Form Setting - Remember Collapsed Setting by User|Remember Collapsed Setting by User]] ==== Field Style ==== * [[Form Setting - Field Label|Field Label]] * [[Form Setting - Hide Label|Hide Label]] ==== Sizing Settings ==== * [[Form Setting - Max Height|Max Height]] * [[Form Setting - Form Width|Form Width]] * [[Form Setting - Tile Height|Tile Height]] (Ribbon form only) ==== Tooltip ==== * [[Form Setting - Tooltip|Tooltip]] ==== Autorefresh ==== * [[Form Setting - Refresh Form Every X Seconds|Refresh Form Every X Seconds]] * [[Form Setting - Auto-Rotate Slides|Auto-Rotate Slides]] (Slideshow Only) * [[Form Setting - Time Between Slides in Seconds|Time Between Slides in Seconds]] (Slideshow Only) ==== Block Association ==== * [[Form Setting - Temporary Block Association|Temporary Block Association]] * [[Form Setting - Traversal Type|Traversal Type]] ==== Option Setup ==== * [[Form Setting - Reload a tab's content whenever that tab is re-selected|Reload a tab's content whenever that tab is re-selected]] * [[Form Setting - Static Options|Static Options]] * [[Form Setting - Shows These Records as the Chooser Options|Shows These Records as the Chooser Options]] * [[Form Setting - Show Option Traversal Controls|Show Option Traversal Controls]] (database selection only) * [[Form Setting - Show Multiples Slides at a time|Show Multiple Slides at a time]] (Slideshow Only) * [[Form Setting - Minimum Slide Width|Minimum Slide Width]] (Slideshow Only) * [[Form Setting - Minimum Slides to show at once|Minimum Slides to show at once]] (Slideshow Only) * [[Form Setting - Maximum Slides to show at once|Maximum Slides to show at once]] (Slideshow Only) ==== Tab, Select or Ribbon ==== * [[Form Setting - Choice Is Saved in This Field|Choice Is Saved in This Field]] * [[Form Setting - Choose a Selection Interface|Choose a Selection Interface]] (database selections only) * [[Form Setting - Chooser Interface|Chooser Interface]] (static selections only) ==== Save and Add Options ==== * [[Form Setting - Allow Form to Be Saved Independently of the Page|Allow Form to Be Saved Independently of the Page]] * [[Form Setting - Use Alternate Button Text for Save|Use Alternate Button Text for "Save"]] * [[Form Setting - Use Alternate Button Text for Add|Use Alternate Button Text for "Add"]] * [[Save and Add Behavior|Save and Add Behaviors]] ==== Validation ==== * [[Form Setting - Required|Required]] ==== Default Value ==== * [[Form Setting - Default Selection in Add Mode|Default Selection in Add Mode]] * [[Form Setting - Default Selection in View and Edit Mode|Default Selection in View and Edit Mode]] ==== Save Effects ==== * [[Form Setting - When Saving Save|When Saving Save]] * [[Form Setting - Lock Choice After First Save|Lock Choice After First Save]] ==== Chooser Security ==== * [[Form Setting - Audit This Field|Audit This Field]] * [[Form Setting - Show History|Show History]] * [[Form Setting - Security Configuration|Security Configuration]] (static selections only)
