Completing the Display Fields tab

Field

Description

Optional. To assign a category to this report, select from the SmartPrompt list.

This list shows field value rules with Rule-Obj-Report- as the first key part and pyCategory as the second key part. You can create additional field value rules in your application to define more categories.

Select if the output display of this list view is to appear within the runtime presentation of another rule, such as a section or flow action. See Harness and Section forms — Adding a List View display. 

The Customize View and Customize Criteria capabilities are not available for embedded list views.

Optional. If you selected Embedded List View, enter a vertical size of the initial display, and select px or % to indicate the units.

Field

Description

Optional. Select to suppress column headers in the report display.

Optional. Select to allow the user to add or remove columns in the list view display. See Interacting with List view displays.

Optional. Select to indicate that the header area is to be excluded from the scrollable area. When a user scrolls the rows at runtime, the header remains visible and fixed. This field is not visible when you select Hide Column Header.

Optional. Select to allow the user to filter the data in the list view display. See Interacting with List view displays.

Optional. Select to allow the user to sort the list view display by any column at runtime, by clicking the column header. This field is not visible when you select Hide Column Header.

Field

Description

Enter a property reference for a single text value, source for the data in a column of an HTML table. In most cases, enter a period and select a property in the class corresponding to the Applies To key part or a superclass of that class.

Enter heading text for this column.

If your application is to support users in multiple locales, choose a noun or noun phrase for the caption of 64 characters or less and select the Localize? check box on the HTML tab. When practical, choose a caption already included in a language pack, to simplify localization. Click to review or create the field value rule supporting localization. The pencil icon appears only after you select the Localize? check box on the HTML tab. See About the Localization wizard and Rules Inspector tool — Localizing forms and reports with the Field Value Inspector.

Optional. To control the display width of this column, enter a number and a measurement here. This becomes the WIDTH=" " value in the final HTML.

Type % as the measurement for percentages of overall table width, or another HTML measurement term such as px for pixels or pt for points. For example, enter 25% for a column that is to be one quarter of the width of the table.

If you leave this field blank or specify widths that cannot be achieved when the table appears at runtime, the browser determines the resulting display appearance.

Optional. You can identify a CSS style, one present on the style sheet identified on the Format tab, for this column. At runtime, this value becomes the CLASS = "zzz" value in the <TD> element for the cells in this column.

For example, enter tdRightStyle to right-justify a value.

Optional. Select a format for the presentation of the field on the list view display. Leave blank to use the format associated with the property.

Many controls accept parameters. Click the icon to the right of the Control value to enter parameters for the control.

Optional. If this display can be exported to Excel, select a format to use for the export. Ordinarily, select one of the following, as appropriate to the type of the value:

These five controls accept parameters. Click to the right of the Export Control value to enter parameters for the control.

If checked, the field does not appear in the initial list view display, but is available for users to add or remove at runtime by clicking the Add/remove link in the filter button dialog.
