I was recently tasked to modify an application. One of the tasks was to change the action button names.
The problems is that when the application is used, the action buttons can be seen on top of the form in the area where buttons usually appear. But if you look at the form or the view of that application I am unable to see where the buttons are.
Is there any other place I am missing to see these buttons. Even the computed forms used do not contain these buttons.
I tried generating a synopsis of the entire application and searched for the action button name… but this too failed to find the button.
When you are looking at a form in the designer client, with the form open, click View (from the menu along the top) then select “Action Pane”. This will show you the action buttons for this form.
If you are not seeing them there, then perhaps when this form is shown in the application it is in a frame? Look at the framesets and try to find the frame.
Another way to create a button is with pass-thru html or javascript, so look on your form for anything written that way.
Thanks Maria… I looked into the places you implied and found out that the button was there all along. However, the name of the button changes several time when the application is used. It has formula that modifies the title of the button depending on the value of some flags in the form.
