TabName as Selected Row

RodrigoAA — Wed, 14 Aug 2019 11:03:51 GMT

Hello everybody,

I have a manufacturing process with different stages. In order to have a specific screen for every single stage, I am using Tabs Widget. This way, I have one tab per stage (e.g. Mixing, Cutting, etc)

I want to link information of a Data Table into Text Areas. Is there any way of fixing the value of Selected Row as the name of the tab?

This would mean that if I click in the tab "Mixing", the service will select "Mixing" as Selected Row (There is a column in the Data Table called Stages with this name and it is the Key Field) and give back the rest of values of this row.

Thank you very much

Sincerely

Rodrigo Avilés

There is a bindable property as SelectedTabName for tabs widget. You could bind this to the key parameter of GetDataTableEntryByKey/GetDataTableEntriesByKey and use the TabSelected event to trigger the retrieval of values for the TextArea. Does this satisfy your requirement?

I think it will work.
