Need to focus on the last item in repeating grid

SA-2017

Summary



You upgraded your application from PRPC 5.4 to Pega 7.1.2. The application has questions defined in decision trees and populated to screen one by one, based on answers to earlier questions.

In PRPC 5.4, focus was on the last question automatically now focus is moved to the first element on the screen.


Error Messages



No error message. 


Steps to Reproduce

  1. Build a Flow Action with a repeating grid
  2. Write before-action activity to load the first question
  3. Write after-action activity to add questions based on the answers to previous question by traversing through a decision tree
  4. Use Property-Seek-Value to get the next question

Root Cause



The root cause of this problem is a defect in customer application code/rules.



Resolution



This issue is resolved through the following local change placed in their custom control:



<script> 

function setFocusToLastQuestion() { 
document.getElementById("<pega:reference name='$this-name'/>").focus(); 


pega.u.d.attachOnload(setFocusToLastQuestion,true); 

</script>
