How to Reface Oracle Forms with a Modern UI Solution

User_KCUS4Feb 14 2022

Hello,
I was wondering how to reface Oracle Forms & Reports solution with a modern UI solution, where the Forms are used as a backend, and the front-end layer is the modern solution - e.g. Angular/Oracle Jet, Oracle APEX, etc.
Additionally, is there is a way to use AngularJS to completely delegate the Forms embedded business logic without needing to rewrite Forms business logic/triggers/errors from scratch?
Thank you,
Ahmad

Check the online-help for SET_WINDOW_PROPERTY. There is also an option NORMAL for window-state.

You have to put the logic you want to do when closing in a WHEN-WINDOW-CLOSED-trigger.

Hi

u have to adjust ur canvas size and ur formd_mdi_window will be adjusted accordingly.

u r the only one who can adjust the window size & canvas size it will be adjust by several tries. There is no matrix for this we can follow to give u a pre-defined one.

u can adjust it through the canvas layout or from their properties.

Dear,

Write the code in the WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE trigger of the form.

SET_WINDOW_PROPERTY(FORMS_MDI_WINDOW, WINDOW_STATE, MAXIMIZE);


SET_WINDOW_PROPERTY('window1', X_POS, (GET_WINDOW_PROPERTY(FORMS_MDI_WINDOW, WIDTH ) - GET_WINDOW_PROPERTY('window1', WIDTH )) / 2);


SET_WINDOW_PROPERTY('window1', Y_POS, (GET_WINDOW_PROPERTY(FORMS_MDI_WINDOW, HEIGHT) - GET_WINDOW_PROPERTY('window1', HEIGHT)) / 2);

We can't hide the FORMS_MDI_WINDOW, as this window is acting as the master window for the form application.

it's fine but when i call this form from other form with when_Button_press this query... This form open with full window

Manu.

Dear,

This is because of the calling form. The calling form will be in MAXIMIZED mode. So change the Maximized Allowed property of the WINDOW1 to NO. Then it will be OK.

Hope this helps.

Hi

Pls check any old trigger form level maximizing ur back window with other name.

Check the window name u maximize or close with the logic u expect.

Remove any unnecessary trigger.

Amatu Allah.
