| Parameters |
|
| |
|
| Nomads |
- Extensive Nomads panel and utility panel
re-tooling to standardize screen terminology and
design.
- Added Drag and Drop functionality to a number of
Nomads utility programs
- Improved the Nomads TAB order entry screen
- Added new 'STRETCH' option for screen resizing
that allows controls to be stretched to
accomodate new screen size.
- Query System
| - |
Records selected as favorites can now
be highlighted in the query list by
setting %Nomad_Query_Fave_Color$ to the
color to be used.
E.g. %Nomad_Query_Fave_Color$="dark
green" |
| - |
Added the ability to cancel changes
made to a query definition as opposed to
having design changes applied
immediately. |
| - |
Popup menu options can now be
suppressed by type. Setting
%Nomad_Query_Suppress_Popup$ with any
combination of ‘E’ (export),
‘C’ (copy), ‘H’
(hidden columns),’F’ (filters),
‘V’ (favourites) and/or
‘P’ (profile).
Thus
%Nomad_Query_Suppress_Popup$=”EC”

would suppress the entire popup menu.
Order of the letter codes does not
matter. |
