I am using Orbeon Form Builder and have a form with a repeat section. The no. of repeats has been set to 3 however I want to vary this depending on the value set in another field. Do you know if this is possible?
The field and repeating element are in different sections on the form.
Thanks
Paul
I created a working example. The idea:
place an event handler reacting to a change of value of the count field
depending on whether the value is larger or smaller than the current number of iterations, remove or insert new iterations
this relies on the xxf:bind() function, and on knowledge of the grid repeat template
This said, as is I don't think it's a good user interface, as it can delete data upon tabbing out of the count field.

I need to display first and last selected value in list. I have listbox and when I pick date I got this result in list
I want to get in one box min value selected but when I use minString(Data) I got 22/2022 instead 303/202. And for max I need to get 306/2022.
Can anyone help please?
To get the Qlik engine to ignore the selected values you need to set analysis.
Firstly, you should be using a max() not a maxstring(). Max() will evaluate the maximum numerical value. Maxstring() will evaluate the maximum ascii values of the string (I think, anyone can correct me).
Secondly, the value 306/2022 in that list is grey which means it is no longer included in the dataset used for the visualisations being displayed. The white values are the values that are included, this is why min(Date) is returing 22/2022. 22/2022 is the minimum available (white) value in that list. 303/2022 is the minimum value of the excluded values in grey.
If you want to be able to reference the values even when the selections have caused it to be excluded (turned them grey) you need to modify your max() to max({1}).
{1} means look at all the data not just the selected data.
max({1} Date)
will return 306/2022 no matter what the selections are.
If you want to return 303/2022. The minimum of the excluded values and have that change dynamically when making other selections let me know and I can show you but I will require you to explain why you would want to that before I try figure it out :)
You can try using the OnOpen document trigger.

I have a report that requires 3 parameters, all 3 has q query to pre populate them using a dataset for each, so the under their properties the available values is selected with the query. Default were also set to use the same query. This work fine.
My problem is when the user of the report wanted to enter the values themselves rather than going into the list populated by the query. Users know the value that they wanted to enter so it's faster for them to enter rather than select. SSRS report seems not to give you the ability to enter if you have set the available values and default values for some reason. Is their a way to go around this please?
Many thanks.
There is one straight forward way to use comma separated multi value parameter rather than list where user enters input.
Below link explains in detail, but I am quite sure you do not want to stick to below solution.
https://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertip/3479/how-to-use-a-multi-valued-comma-delimited-input-parameter-for-an-ssrs-report/
Another thing you could do is keep your multi value parameter as list as it is and create a text input parameter.
Now if user want to simply choose from list fair enough you will have to handle second parameter as null because user chose from list.
Then on your dataset check and apply filter as 2nd parameter value as not null.
Same goes if user does text input then multi value parameter as not null.
The Problem
I have a very complex, rather outdated jqgrid implementation that I'm upgrading to the latest free-jqgrid and we're having an issue in that after clearing the grid with unload, when we re-initialize the grid, the row ids are higher than they should be to start.
They seem to still be incrementing and not starting again. Are there some global counters I need to clear out to have the grid completely clear itself before we re-render it?
Grid Clear
if ( this.timesheet_grid ) {
this.timesheet_grid.grid.jqGrid( 'GridUnload' );
this.timesheet_grid.grid = null;
this.timesheet_grid = null;
Rows after GridUnload has been run
Shows an id like jqg56
Stuff I've Tried Since Posting
GridDestroy
clearGridBeforeUnload
SOLUTION
As #Oleg has suggested i simply needed to set the id attribute manually when processing the grid data.
I see that your incorrectly understand the meaning of rowids and the requirements for input data. I'm wonder especially about the suggestion of Tony to reset $.jgrid.guid. I find the suggestion very bad because it looks like a solution, but it can produce more seriously problems as the problems, which are solved!
First of all, it's important to understand what is rowid. Rowid is the values of id attribute of the grid rows: the id values of <tr> elements of the grid's body (see here). The rowid are used as a parameter of almost all callbacks and events of jqGrid. Because of that jqGrid must assign id attribute to every row and the input data of the grid have to contain rowid information! The existence of rowids is critical for working jqGrid. Only because of that jqGrid generates unique rowids in case of wrong input data. Alternative for generation of ids would be preventing creating the grid at all.
jqGrid tolerates the error with specifying the rowids in input data only for some simple grids, where one need just display some simple data and one never need to use rowids. If you use ids then you should fix the problem only in one way: you have to fix your input data. You can for example include id property with unique value in every element of input data. You should take in consideration that no id duplicates exist not only in the grid but on the whole HTML page. It's strictly recommended to use idPrefix option with unique value for every grid always if your HTML page have more as one grids (inclusive grid with subgrids).
Resetting of $.jgrid.guid is very dangerous and it can break functionality of jqGrid because of creating elements with duplicate id values. The property $.jgrid.guid is global. It's common over all grids and subgrids on the page. Simple subgrids scenario will produces id duplicates after you manually reset $.jgrid.guid. It will be used inside of $.jgrid.randId() method used in many places of jqGrid code. For example, the method addRow used by inlineNav uses the method.
I repeat my suggestion more clear once more. If you uses rowids or if the values of rowids are important for you in some way then you have to include id property to every item of input data. If some other property has already an unique value then you can add key: true in the corresponding column of colModel (one can use key: true in only one column). Alternatively, you can add prmNames: { id: "myId" } if myId property of input data contains unique rowid instead of default id property.
jqGrid uses common counter in order to be a sure that there will be no duplicate values when a build in id generator is used.
To reset the value you will need to set the guid parameter to 1 - i.e
$.jgrid.guid =1;
after you unload the grid
If the solution is based on the knowing the behavior of the product, then this is a good solution.
If we try to solve the problem, without to knowing the behavior - it is a dangerous solution.
It is very easy to say - this is bad solution and it is very very dangerous to use this solution - so my question is:
What is happen with the counter if the user reload the page under some conditions?
The answer is: the counter is reset and we go to the same situations which are described in the above answer.
So I'm somewhat new to access 2013, anyways, I've created a form in access 2013 based directly off a table, so no queries involved if that matters, and what I'm trying to do is just have a text box that updates the total value of 3 different fields as they're entered.
right now it's just a plain-text box, the control source is "=[Search Cost]+[Update Cost]+[Copy Cost]", and if I close the form entirely and reopen the record it updates the text box with the total for all three, but the customer wants it to update in real time. Any suggestions?
I just tried your scenario in Access 2013 on a simple form and it updated for me in real time as I entered values. However, that was because each of the three fields values had a Default Value of 0 in my test table.
So I suspect this is not updating for you in real time because one or more of those values is null while you are entering data in the form. Access doesn't know what [Some field value]+Null should be (it's an unknown thing) so it won't display a calculated value in real time on your form until you provide a value for each of the three fields.
So how can you get around this?
You can add a Default Value of 0 or some other value to each of the three fields at the table level.
Or you could modify your form expression to use the NZ function which will convert any null values to zero. So use this expression:
=Nz([Search Cost])+Nz([Update Cost])+Nz([Copy Cost])
Either of those options should achieve your end goal I believe. They did in my quick tests.
Thanks for the help.
I have a doc based Core Data app consisting of a table with two columns. The column cells are populated with US Currency dollar values. I have two labels at the bottom of each column with Number formatters. Each label displays the sum of it's respective column. I'm doing this with bindings:
Bound to the arrayController
Controller Key - arrangedObjects
modelKey - #sum.regAmount, #sum.regAmount1
The label attribute Types are int 16 in the data model.
Anyway, these calculations work fine, and the resulting values are displayed at startup.
What I need to do is also display the difference between the two resulting sums at startup in a third label. For some reason I can't pick up the sum values to preform the calculation.
This action works using a sender:
(runningBalance.intValue = (theDeposits.intValue - theAmounts.intValue));
How can I automatically display the calculated difference of the two sums at startup without manually executing the action?
Thanks again.
Paul
You don't need an action, you need a model key you can bind to just as you do with the sums. Then you bind that to the label's display(?) property and it should be called automatically.
