Runtime Behaviors options
Setting | Description/Comments/Procedures |
---|---|
Use Workstation Login |
To log on using a workstation user ID and workstation domain name automatically, select this option. When selected, the application does not prompt you for a user ID and password but logs you in automatically, using preregistered logon credentials. When this check box is cleared, the system prompts you for a login ID and password every time you log in. To use this option, your system administrator must register your workstation domain name and user ID on the Users form, Workstation Domain/ID field. For more information, see the online help for that field. This check box also appears on the Sign In dialog box. If you select the check box on the Sign In dialog box, you do not have to provide a user name and password, but you can still select different configurations. Note: If you are accessing your application via Infor Ming.le™, we
recommend that you not alter the workstation login credentials,
either on the Users form or during sign-in.

Show Configuration Name on Caption |
If you select this option, the name of the system configuration to which you are currently logged on is displayed in the title bar of the application. |
Prompt to Save Form Splitter Changes |
If you select this option, you can save any changes that you make to the position of the splitter bar in multiview forms. For example, suppose you have a multiview form open, and you move the splitter bar to enlarge your view of the grid side of the form. You like that change and want to make it permanent, so that every time you open the form, the splitter bar is right where you positioned it. If this option is selected, when you close the form,a confirmation message asks if you want to save the current splitter bar position. To save the form configuration, click .If this check box is cleared, you cannot save splitter bar position changes in Runtime mode. |
Prompt to Save Grid Changes |
When this option is selected, you can save any changes that you make to the grid view in multiview forms. For example, suppose you have a multiview form open, and you widen some columns and narrow other columns on the grid side of the form. You like the changes and want to make them permanent, so that every time you open the form, the grid side is just as you have it now. If this option is selected, when you close the form, a confirmation message asks if you want to save the current grid-attribute change. To save the change, click .If this check box is cleared, you cannot save grid side changes in Runtime mode. Note: Before you perform a change, you should revert
any runtime changes. Failure to do so might cause confusing
results and interfere with your changes. See the help topic,
Reverting form changes made in
runtime mode.
|
Prompt to Save Flex Layout Changes | When this option is selected, you are
prompted to save any FlexLayout-attribute changes you might have
made, when you close the form. Note: Before you
perform a change, you should revert any runtime changes. Failure
to do so might cause confusing results and interfere with your
changes. See the help topic, Reverting
form changes made in runtime mode.

ENTER Key Behaves Like TAB |
Select this option to use the key to move between fields on a form, in the same way the key works. To use only the key to move between fields, clear this check box.Note:
When this option is selected, you can use either the key or the key for most movement between fields and options on the form, with these exceptions:
|
Include Grid Column Headers When Copying to Clipboard |
If you select this check box, column headers are included when you copy data in a grid to the clipboard. Clear this check box to not include column headers. |
Unload IDO Metadata With Forms |
To clear the IDO metadata cache each time you unload global form objects in Design Mode, select this check box. To unload global form objects select .In IDO or application event development, clearing the cache ensures that you see the results of the current, edited metadata. |
Auto-delete All Unmodified New Rows |
When this option is not selected, any row that the system inserts in a grid automatically is automatically deleted if you move away from the row without changing anything in it. However, the system does not treat rows that you create using a menu option, toolbar option, or keyboard shortcut the same way. With these rows, the system normally attempts to validate them, whether you have modified them or not. When this option is selected,all new rows are treated as if they were inserted automatically. In other words, if you manually create a row and then navigate away without changing anything, the system automatically deletes it. |
Optimize Script Execution |
This option optimizes form and global scripts so that they all run in one domain. This improves the loading and compiling time of scripts. In most cases, this option should be selected. This option should be cleared only for developers and system administrators who are creating, maintaining, or debugging scripts. In a normal runtime environment, clearing this option can have a detrimental effect on system performance. |
Display Captions in Most Recently Used forms list | Select this option if you want the captions displayed in the Most Recently Used list. |
Load/replace form with extended form |
Select this option to enable users to extend and replace an original (base) form. This feature opens a new (extended) form of a base form when a request to open the base form is received. This option is available to Site or Vendor users only. |
Wildcard Character |
Specify the wildcard character to use when you search for information with Filter-in-Place or query forms. The default character is the asterisk (*). |
SQL Characters to Pass Through In Filtering |
Specify any special characters that you want to be escaped in SQL wildcard queries. The underscore _ and square brackets [ ] are special characters that can be used in a query with a SQL "LIKE" clause and a wildcard. For example, the underscore character_ in a wildcard context is treated as "any character" by SQL unless it is escaped. Some users want to use these special characters with their built-in query capabilities; other users want to simply use the characters like any other character in the query. For example, you might specify the underscore _ here as a character to pass through. Then if you perform a query for the value my_data*, the SQL Server ESCAPE clause is applied to the underscore character in the query, and only instances that start with my_data are returned. If you do not specify the underscore here, the query assumes that the _ represents "any character" and it returns instances such as my3data. |
Data Record Cap and List Record Cap |
The term caps refers to the maximum number of records or items that the system can return at one time. There are two types of caps that you can reset for your work:
Both of these types of caps have the same three options:
Note:
Instead of resetting the cap for collections, you can use the tool bar button.See About Caps. |
Language |
From the Language list, you can select a language for the text in field labels, button labels, menus, online help, and other parts of the user interface. Then click . This closes the User Preferences window. See the help about the Multi-Lingual User Interface. Note: Only those languages that are installed and available on your system are listed.
|
Initial Command |
The value of this field indicates the default initial command to be run when a form is opened and the form has no explicitly defined initial command. This user default initial command is applied only if the standard operation corresponding to that initial command is enabled for the form. You can select any of these options:
|
Comparison Tool |
Click the ellipsis button to locate the comparison tool to be used. Before you use this option, install a file comparison tool on the machine. |
Click this button to restore the system defaults for all settings. |
