This is making the embedded view virtually useless. To make things worse, I have an embedded view within the document that is being opened and the first document in that view opens so I can’t edit the main document. Help?
Here’s my structure:
Doc 1… has embedded view … show single category for documents created by the current user… works great. But, when any of the listed documents are selected they open automatically (Doc 2).
There is another embedded view on Doc 2 that shows response documents to the open document (Doc 3). … works great, but when I put the Doc 2 into edit mode,
it opens the first (Doc 3) in the embedded view … I can’t access Doc 2 in edit mode
I’m experiencing the same frustrating behavior. Here’s my setup:
I have a form that’s used for only displaying the single-category, embedded view and a category field to allow the user to choose the category from a list. Ultimately, I want to use this form in a frameset with a navigator.
When I open the form by itself (not using the frameset) I can switch the category and the embedded view behaves correctly…no problem.
When I use my frameset and change categories, the embedded view switches to the new category, but then it launches the first document in the view. What’s up with that?!
I tried all this embedded view business in 5.0.3 but it crashes the client at every turn. Now we’re researching if this can be done in 6.5 but it looks as if we’ll have to forget using embedded views all together. How nice.
I had the problem, looking the same: there is a form with a “tabbed table”, and one of the tabs contains single-category embedded view, showing documents, related to the current one. While selecting that tab, the first document from the embedded view is automatically opened. The strange thing I recognized, was that this happens only while using framesets. Fortunately, I found the solution. It was just necessary to check the “Selection tracks mouse movement” in the Embedded view properties (the second tab of the Properties dialog). Looks strange, but this solved the problem!.. Hopefully, this could be a solution for You as well.
