Detailed information about the user interface

You will usually need to display more information about individual interface elements, such as menu entries or forms, only if the program's user interface is edited.

To display detailed information

  1. Select the Database > Settings menu item.

  2. On the Program tab, enable the Show additional navigation information option.

    NOTE: The option is not saved permanently. It has to be reset when the program is started.

The following information appears:

  • Manager shows the form name in the status bar. It displays in the following format:

    <logical form> [(<physical form>)]

    TIP: Double-click the form name to copy the name to the clipboard.

  • In the Manager, the Show system data entry is displayed in the menu bar in the View menu. This opens a form that lists detailed information about the loaded menu items, forms, and form definitions.

  • In the Manager, in expert mode, the Definition context menu entry is displayed in addition in the navigation view. This shows advanced technical information about configuring a menu item.

  • If menu entries or tasks are linked to preprocessor-relevant configuration parameters, the preprocessor conditions are shown behind the menu items and tasks.

Limiting list entries using the list limit

Table 33: Configuration parameter for limiting results
Configuration parameter Effect

Common | DBConnection | ListLimit

This configuration parameter specifies the number of list entries above which the filter request becomes effective

Common | DBConnection | WebListLimit

This configuration parameter specifies the number of list entries above which the filter request in the web front becomes effective.

You can use a list limit to limit the number of elements displayed in a result list and in the control elements with list values (for example, menus). If the number of results exceeds the limit, a filter dialog opens.

In the Designer, you can globally define the maximum number of entries displayed before the filter dialog is opened in the Common | DBConnection | ListLimit configuration parameter. In addition, the current user can use the system setting or enter their own limit. The personal limit overwrites the global value in the configuration parameter.

To use the system settings

  1. Select the Database > Settings menu item.

  2. On the User tab in the Behavior pane, enable the Enable list limit and Use system settings options.

    This setting applies the global value defined in the Common | DBConnection | ListLimit configuration parameter.

To use a personal limit

  1. Select the Database > Settings menu item.

  2. On the User tab in the Behavior pane, enable the Enable list limit.

  3. On the User tab in the Behavior pane, disable the Use system settings option and enter the number of objects in Objects.

Limiting list sizes using simple filters

You can use the filter dialog to limit the entries in a list though defined filter criteria. A filter remains in use until you reset it. Settings in the filter dialog are saved in the user configuration.

If you want to start certain search queries more frequently, create search queries for the advanced database search or create user-defined filters.

To limit a result set

  1. In Filter condition, enter the text to use as a basis for filtering. Use of * as wild cards is permitted. Case sensitivity is not taken into account.

  2. In Apply to, enable the properties to which the filter condition is to be applied.

  3. If you only want lists to show objects that meet the filter condition and are already assigned to the base object, enable the Only show current assignment option.

    NOTE: This option is only available for lists with object assignments.

  4. Click Apply.

    NOTE: To display all objects, click Show all. The filter condition is not applied in this case.

Example:

This filter condition is used to search for all parts of an employee’s full name. This is put together in the following manner:

Full name

Last name, first name

Example:

MM, User

MM-ME, User

WMM, User

Filter condition Description Find, according to example

MM or *MM*

Finds all employees whose full name contains the string MM.

MM, User

MM-ME, User

WMM, User

MM*

Finds all employees whose full name begins with the MM.

MM, User

MM-ME, User

*MM

Finds all employees whose full name ends with the MM.
