Hi Guys, Like many of you, I have stopped using output forms to display selections of records, using listboxes in stead.
But lately, I have started to use them again. Why, you might ask. Well, quite a number of customers are using laptop/tablet devices. More often than not, they will use the touch screen in stead of the mouse. In this case, the standard height of the listbox rows is to small to comfortable select, or double-tab, a single row. Another example is on the work floor: touch screen are used to process there actions. I could double or triple the row height, but still, I will not be able to design the output like I would design an output form, especially if I also want some graphics in it. The possibilities with output forms are far more flexible. I can put whatever I like in the form. But this brings me to this question: Will output forms keep being supported by 4D? What if I switch to ORDA? From what I see, output forms will not work with ORDA. (Anybody from 4D: what is 4D’s view on this?) What is this community’s preference?
