Nomads / Newbie in Nomads Development
« on: November 03, 2021, 08:29:50 PM »
I have the latest version of PxPlus running in Linux. I was hoping to start the learning
curve of Nomads with maybe a simple inventory part look up for those in the shop.
As mentioned I am a Newbie so I have started reading the PxPlus documentation and it explains,
but was hoping to find more maybe here on the forum video library or Youtube as visual helps.
Is there possibly something I have missed here or out on the internet that gives more of an outline
from start to finish on the design of a simple panel and implementing with the apps database?
Any help or links would be appreciated.... Thx,

Language / Open Excel File Just To View In Text Base PVX17
« on: July 19, 2021, 10:42:23 PM »
Running text base app in the plant that when a part is found to have a
spreadsheet that contains detail for shipping info, I thought I had at
one time read that a spreadsheet could be opened to view and then closed
while in a Pvx app, no modification of spreadsheet required?

Language / Load Edit Keys 'EL'
« on: June 30, 2021, 06:36:43 PM »
I have some users in the plant running WindX within a character base in Linux.
I have a request that a user wants to load the edit keys (Del, End, PgDwn, Up Arrow, left Arrow)
with prompts to short cut their manual entry.   I had no issues on the setup of F1-F12 keys.
using the 'FL' command, but having no luck using the 'EL' command.  ProvideX Ver17
 
this is their request for keys:
UP ARROW         A  + return
LEFT ARROW      N + return
PAGE DOWN      END + return
END                       ? + return
DELETE                  Y + return
 
Not sure what I am doing wrong?   This is what I have
for loading the DELETE key
 
PRINT ‘EL’,”2”,CHR(9),$02$,”Y”+$0D$
The CHR(9) is the key id
$02$  is the length in hex of the character string
              that will load the editing key with
Y    is the text that will be transmitted when the
              editing key is pressed along with a RETURN that is added
 
No error when command is executed, but get nothing when DELETE key is pressed either ??
 
This is what I have for the id of the keys:
00 Left Arrow / Key Number
01 Right Arrow / Key Number
02 Up Arrow / Key number
03 Down Arrow / Key number
05 End / Key number
06 Page Up / Key number
07 Page Down / Key number
08 Insert / Key number
09 Delete / Key number

Programming / Use of mouse copy/paste wanting no 'return' after paste
« on: June 29, 2021, 01:15:12 PM »
using PRINT 'OPTION' ("RMOUSECOPY","1") in WindX in a character based
system.  When the user is pasting it is doing a auto return and going to the
next line, the user wants the cursor to end at the paste so that they can add
to what was just pasted.
Just wanting to know if there is a way to suppress the return, and if so, only for select users.
Thx,

Thin Client/WindX / MS Window Size
« on: June 28, 2021, 03:46:57 PM »
How do I keep the application window size of pxplus static when a user restarts the program? It resets to default size rather than remembering what the user had previously dragged it to.

Thin Client/WindX / Print Screen Within Child Window in WindX
« on: June 28, 2021, 03:43:22 PM »
Just upgraded to Ver17 until 18 is released, did not have this issue on the older WindX version.
when in a child pop-up window print screen does ask for the printer but doesn't print.
Looking into the program *pr.opn I am finding its sending a default line prompt of 21.
On some of the child windows I do get the error Error 29: Invalid Mnemonic or position specification.
I am guessing its due to the child window is smaller then the 21 Line default it wants to use.
Is there not a way for the print screen program to know the window size its currently in ?
