How to add an input field on processing page grid column.
There is option to add Type in PXGridColumn property but it does not have any value for text box and then the column result as readonly on UI,
Where as the added column should take the input,
Example - Need to process all the Production Order and set its status
Put the field you want to set on the header instead of the detail lines, and then set all the status' based on the header value. Like Hugues said, the entire grid is probably disabled for a reason.

I have two tables: one is a header table, the second its details table. I want to implement a grid containing two selectors. The user will select a header value from the first selector which will cause the second selector to update with the related detail values. What do I need to do to get the second one to update with the proper detail values based on the first selector's selected value?
You just need to set the selector to use Current and point to the Dac/Field used in your header the same way you do a view in a graph.
[PXSelector(typeof(Search<TableTwo.someOtherField,
Where<TableTwo.someRelatedField, Equal<Current<HeaderTable.relatedField>>>))]
In your page file on your grid field, you need AutoRefresh set to true.
<px:PXSelector ID="edAField" runat="server" DataField="AField" AutoRefresh="True" />
If nothing is showing in your selector, make sure the header value is committed before trying to select the value on the grid field.
We have a view delegate and we are returning custom results according to the filters specified. Once the result is available the user choose any record, say 3rd and uses it. Next time they might change the filter criteria, and the view delegate returns a different set of result.
Here it seems the grid is auto selecting the record in previous position (3).
how can i reset the selection to the first record?
<View>.Current = <FirstRecordINeed>;
<View>.Cache.ActiveRow = <FirstRecordINeed>;
I have tried setting the activeRow/current in view delegate and the filter row updated event. But doesnt work. Any help?
To get ability to affect grid's ActiveRow you should specify property SyncPositionWithGraph="true" in the px:PXGrid in aspx.
After that you can set <View>.Cache.ActiveRow in the view delegate and it will affect grid.
Need some help with Gravity forms. I need to have a field, that is a merge of values ,that user has previously selected.
So, if a user has selected 3 different fields wth values of 1)XYY, 2)YYX,3)YYZ I do not need a sum, just a plain merge, in form of XYY.YYX.YYZ, or anything like that.
Could that be acomplised with some merging tags, or dynamically population?
Thanks
Of course;
You should create two different forms.
Collect data with field1-field2-field3, they can be single line text, number, date or anything. In the advanced tab of field settings, write a parameter name for each one, like field1-field2-field3.
In the second form create a single line text, in the advanced tab of field settings check "dynamically populate field" and write your parameters like field1.field2.field3.
In form1 settings->confirmations->redirect URL line, write your form2 page url where you added form2. Select "Pass field data via query string" and add your parameters like field1={fieldname:1}&field2={fieldname:2}&field3={fieldname:3}
When you submit form1, your form2->single line text field will capture the parameters as you wish.
This is possible with Gravity Forms Populate Anything by...
Add whatever type of field you'd like to use to capture the combined.
Set the Default Value to the merge tags of your 3 fields: #{Field A:1}.#{Field B:2}.#{Field C:3}.
That's it.
Edit: Updated screenshot for Gravity Forms 2.5 and updated merge tags to use the # to make them "live".
First off I am new to FM but I have a good handle on the basics. What I need to do is this - in a contact information type layout I want to be able to alter the layout based on a specific field. Ex. When the record is brought up, the background of the layout will change colors for a client, another for vendor, etc.
I tried to change a label based on a field, with no success. My guess is that the layout is static and only the data fields change.
We use FM Pro.
Thanks,
Mark
FileMaker layouts are static, but there are still some things you can do to alter the layout based on the values of fields:
Calculation Fields
If you want the data shown in an area to change, you can use a Calculation field. A typical example of this would be a status field. To do this you would add a new field to your table and use enter a calculation on that field like:
Case (
IsEmpty(myTable::myField) ; "Please enter a value for myField." ;
myTable::myField = "wrong value" ; "Please enter a correct value for myField." ;
"Everything seems okay."
)
Conditional Formatting
To make things like background color change you can use a conditionally formatted field. I will typically add an empty numeric field (for this example we'll call it emptyField) and set it so that it can't be edited during modification.
If you place emptyField on your layout, below all the other fields and disallow the user to enter the field in either Browse or Find mode, you can then use conditional formatting to change the field's color.
Portal Hiding
You can use this technique when you want some elements of your UI to disappear when they aren't needed. For example, if you want a "submit" button to appear only when all of the records on a field are filled out.
To use this technique I will usually create a Calculated number field, called ReadyForSubmit, on the original table and give it a logical calculation like:
not IsEmpty(field1) and ... and not IsEmpty(fieldN)
(Note that the value of the above function would be 1 or 0)
I will then create a new Support table in my database and add to it a field One with a calculated value set to 1.
I will then make a relationship between myTable::readyForSubmit and Support::One.
On the layout, create a portal with one row. Put your Submit button in that layout. Now, when readyForSubmit calculates to 1 the button will appear. When it calculates to 0 the button will be hidden.
Hidden Tab Browser
Finally, you can use a tab browser where you set the title font size to 1 point, hide the border, and control the browser programmatically. You can use this for having different field arrangements for different types of records. To do this you would first give an Object name to each tab of the tab browser, say Tab1, Tab2, Tab3.
Then you would add a script, goToTab, with the logic for when you want to go to each tab. Say:
If (myTable::myField = "corn")
Go to Object (Tab1)
Else If (myTable::myField = "squash")
Go To Object (Tab2)
End If
You would then use Script Triggers to run goToTab when On Record Load.
With the release of filemaker 13 there may be another way to do this. You could use a slide control, name the panels in the control, and conditionally switch to the correct panel based on the record type.
you would drop the appropriate fields for the record type in each panel.

It seems there have been a few questions here regarding this subject, and they have some great answers, but it seems that my case is a little different. I need to filter the records displayed in a jqGrid, but entirely client-side.
For a number of reasons, the best way for me to populate my grid is with an array that's emitted directly into the JavaScript on the page. The grid itself doesn't interact with the server at all. I have some custom AJAX happening in various grid events, but that's it. (Basically, I'm integrating this with an existing set of available services which can't change significantly.)
What I'm looking to do is filter the grid based on a simple text input and button. My page has the text input, the button, and a table (which becomes the grid on document ready). I'd like to bind to the click event of the button (normal jQuery event binding, nothing special) and use the value from the text input as a display filter on the jqGrid.
By "filter" I mean to display only the records which contain a match (in any field) for the text in the input. Then, to display all records, just empty the input and click the button again. Additionally, the grid is multi-select and the selections need to persist through filtering. I just need to be able to hide the rows which don't match what's in the input.
Is this possible?
To filter local grid you should only fill filters property of the postData parameter of jqGrid and set additionally search:true.
To save selection of the grid you can use reloadGrid with additional parameter [{page:1,current:true}] (see here).
The corresponding code can be the following
$("#search").click(function() {
var searchFiler = $("#filter").val(), grid = $("#list"), f;
if (searchFiler.length === 0) {
grid[0].p.search = false;
$.extend(grid[0].p.postData,{filters:""});
}
f = {groupOp:"OR",rules:[]};
f.rules.push({field:"name",op:"cn",data:searchFiler});
f.rules.push({field:"note",op:"cn",data:searchFiler});
grid[0].p.search = true;
$.extend(grid[0].p.postData,{filters:JSON.stringify(f)});
grid.trigger("reloadGrid",[{page:1,current:true}]);
});
I made the demo for you which filter for two columns 'Client' ('name') and 'Notes' ('note') you can extend the code to search in all columns which you need.
Depend on what you exactly mean with the saving row selection you can need to save the current selection from the selarrrow in a variable and restore the selected rows with respect of setSelection method.
