It is a customized guide form. With the customized guide, it returns only the data that is queried without accessing all the data. In another use case, when data selected from a page search needs to be transferred to the previous page, the "TclGuideForm" component is used.
Before using these features, the form must be initialized.
An object of the TclGuideForm class should be defined.
var GuideForm1 : TclGuideForm;
The defined object must be created using the "Create" function.
{ GuideForm1 = TclGuideForm.Create(Self); GuideForm1.Run; }
The features are provided in the table below.
Feature | Use of | Definition |
---|---|---|
ReturnItemData | GuideForm1.ReturnItemData = 'MAIN_TEXT'; | The value of the desired field from the data clicked on in the list on the form page is retrieved and displayed in the next content. The name of the selected field must be written. In the example, the value from the "MAIN_TEXT" field is retrieved. |
ReturnItemObject | GuideForm1.ReturnItemObject = edtListNumber; | The value returned from the previously selected field is passed. In the example, the data has been transferred to a TclEdit component named "edtListNumber". |
Example
In this example, a TclForm will be created, containing a list view (TclListView), an interactive search field (TclProEdit), and a TclGuideForm to display data.
First, a SQLite database will be created with an "OperatingSystem" table, and sample data will be inserted into the table. When the user enters data into the search field and clicks the search button, the OnGuideQryClick event will be triggered, performing a database query based on the entered term.
The results of this query will be loaded into the list view, and when a user selects an item, a specific field (MAIN_TEXT) of that item will be transferred to an edit box (edtListNumber). The form will also include a title, layouts, and various components for user interaction. TclGuideForm will be used to display the search results and retrieve the selected data.
Key steps:
Let's set up our connection to the sqlite database.
Clomosy.DBSQLiteConnect(Clomosy.AppFilesPath + 'DBProductSales.db3', '');
After that, we need to add BasisGuide to reach the desired guide information. After that, we add a listView to the Guide form and connect it to our form.
mainListviewGuide = TClListView(MyGuideForm.clFindComponent('FormClListView')); mainListviewGuide.Align = alClient; mainListviewGuide.Visible = True;
After that, when we click on the button on the edit we wrote, it goes to the database and finds the value sought here and transfers it to the ListView.
void OnGuideQryClick; var Qry : TClSQLiteQuery; { try Qry = Clomosy.DBSQLiteQueryWith('SELECT model AS MAIN_TEXT,operating_system AS SUB_TEXT FROM OperatingSystem WHERE model LIKE '+QuotedStr('%'+searchGuideEdit.text+'%')); Qry.OpenOrExecute; if (Qry.Found) { mainListviewGuide.clLoadListViewDataFromDataset(Qry); } except ShowMessage('Exception class: '+LastExceptionClassName+' Exception Message: ' +LastExceptionMessage); } }
Finally, the Guide takes the "MAIN_TEXT" field of the clicked data from the form with the "ReturnItemData" parameter and sends it to the edit on the previous page with the "ReturnItemObject" parameter.
MyGuideForm.ReturnItemData = 'MAIN_TEXT'; MyGuideForm.ReturnItemObject = edtListNumber;
Example:
var MyForm:TclForm; MyGuideForm : TclGuideForm; mainListviewGuide : TclListView; lblTitle,lblListNumber :TClLabel; edtListNumber : TclEdit; searchGuideEdit :TclProEdit; searchRehButton,btnListNumber : TClProButton;

lytContent= MyForm.AddNewLayout(vertScrollBoxMain,'lytContent'); lytContent.Align = alTop; lytContent.Height =700; } void SetCaptionName; { lblTitle= MyForm.AddNewLabel(MyForm,'lblTitle','COUNT SCREEN'); lblTitle.Align=alMostTop; lblTitle.Margins.Left=100; lblTitle.Height =30; lblTitle.StyledSettings = ssFamily; lblTitle.TextSettings.Font.Size= 20; } void GuideListView; { mainListviewGuide = TClListView(MyGuideForm.clFindComponent('FormClListView')); mainListviewGuide.Align = alClient; mainListviewGuide.Visible = True; } void OnGuideQryClick; var Qry : TClSQLiteQuery; { try Qry = Clomosy.DBSQLiteQueryWith('SELECT model AS MAIN_TEXT,operating_system AS SUB_TEXT FROM OperatingSystem WHERE model LIKE '+QuotedStr('%'+searchGuideEdit.text+'%'));
