Hi Dorine,

Thank you for your input.

A created an event OnRubricaTypeChange as this:

I don't know if this how to use the Ajax Refresh, but I only option available to choose was the tables inside the If Widget.

Can I use this way or do I need to do an event for each radio button? This way didn't work either :(

About your remark, can you explain a little bit better how you use it?

Regards

you have to first give your IF widget a name, then you can choose that to refresh.  You don't need to refresh the tables.

After dinner, I'll make you a quick example of what i mean with the remark

Giving names to widgets....that's something that i must put in my to-do list ;)

It worked as planned!!! :D

Thank you for your help. 

(I will wait for that example ;) ) 

Hello João,

Hope you're doing well.

Let me give you my thoughs on this one :)

(Edit: sorry, I didn't see that Dorine was about to do an example as well!)

1) It is not a good practise to call Get<something> to a boolean variable. Usually they follow a nomenclature like Is<something>, Has<something> or Show<something>. This is just a small suggestion because your naming can be confusing for other developers in your team.

2) Like Dorine said, you don't need those Extended Properties. If you want to assign a value to a variable, you should use an Assign widget:

Extended Properties are basically attributes that you may add to an element in the HTML (ex: src, style, class)

3) An Ajax Refresh is used to refresh only part of the screen. With that said, you can use it when you define a name to a specific element/widget. In your scenario, you have your If widget to determine if you'll show RubGeralTable or RubOrcamentalTable, right? Therefore, you want to refresh the container that contains these elements. Just give a name to your Container element (like you did for Filters_Wrapper) and it will appear as an option to be refreshed.

4) Your logic inside of OnRubricaTypeChange action should be something simple. You only need to use the Ajax Refresh on that element. You don't need to have that extra if :) because the value of your variable is controled by your radio buttons and the screen controls which table you want to show.

Here's a quick sample for you to check it:

Please refer to attached OML file just as an example.

Hope that this helps you!

Kind regards,

Hi Joao,

see this oml.  

What I meant to say is, if you have some boolean variable, that you want to use in a condition (such as the condition of the IF widget) you can say

"If variable" instead of "If variable = True"

"If not variable" instead of "If variable = False"

And if you choose good names for your variables, in my opinion that makes for more readable code.

So in your example, if you keep the everything as is, you could have in condition of IF

Not getRubricaType instead of getRubricaType = False 

But I think your variable doesn't have a very good name, I'd make it "MostreRubricaGeral", I would make the value for RubricaGeral choice True, and the other one False, and condition of the IF widget can be just MostreRubricaGeral.

Have fun coding,

Dorine

P.S. how is my attempt at making up a portuguese variable name  :-O ?????

Hi Rui,

I must say, with your post, you helped me to understand concepts that were in the grey/black area for me.

THIS IS A GREAT POST for someone as a beginner like me to understand these simple things!!!!

Really, Thank you very much for all that explanation!

Regards for all
