Hi,
When the user clicks a row in the table I want some parameters outside the table to update based on one of the values of whichever row is selected.
The issue I am facing is an inability to get the information of which row the user has currently selected / highlighted.
I can see on the front-end the selected row visually highlights so I assume this data must be available somehow. I am aware I could create a checkbox on the data rows within the table but I do not wish to do anything like that, I simply want to get the interaction of the user selecting the specific row and go from there as that will allow me to create the cleanest UX.
Many thanks.
Not sure if you are talking about a table in Cube, Visio or LCAs. But below gives you a couple of options. Even if it is in a connector, you can still use Visio or LCA's. If you are not familiar with any of the below, I would advise to look into LCAs. If you are new to LCAs => DataMiner Low-Code Apps | DataMiner Docs
If you are familiar with connector development, you could implement a context menu on your table. However, this requires you to make custom changes to the connector and therefor you might no longer be able to update to newer versions of the connector.
Example:
If you are familiar with Visio development (LCA are better option below), you can display your table in a visual overview (still in Cube). Generating shapes dynamically | DataMiner Docs You can then add buttons on the child objects to trigger an action/script for that child/row.
Example:
If you are familiar with LCAs and you don't need to stay within Cube. You can make it work x-platform (web based) by creating a LCA.
Example:
In visio you can do that, you can have a transparant shape on top of the whole row which is actually a button (linked to an action).
Thank you for the confirmation
Hi Michiel,
Thank you for your response, I should have mentioned this was for cube.
With your suggestion to add buttons to the rows that is what I have chosen to implement in order to get the functionality. I was hoping I could get the direct click on the row (without any buttons) but I believe that is not possible?
If not, I will continue with the button approach.
Thanks!
