Xbrowse as a screen designer

Post by Marc Venken »

Some of you already use xbrowse as a screen designer i think.

Xbrowse that will have folowing basics :

Code: Select all

ID  Screen        name                     xPos       yPos    oData

01  Invoice       Customer Nr :          05          10      oInv_Cust
01  Invoice       Date :                      06          10     oInv_Date

02  Customers  Customer Nr :           05          20     oCus_Cust
....
 
The program will than read the setting (ex. Invoice) and build a screen (The call can be afther a dlg. is setup)
I think that the oData can be used to configure more in the program itself

oInv_Cust... (colors, font, ....)
Has anyone a sample using this technique ?

Most likely i will also be using (Oop the oDatabase technique) for new parts of the program

Would you use row/col or pixels ? (I will be using 1 kind of screen, NO changes of resolution are needed)
