Hello Joshua,

Probably this do not affect this case (because we are using the action in a modal view), however, I discover an introduced bug if we try to use the action over the first initial view (no mal) for example. I fix that bug so please, before anything, ugprade your App Builder copy!

Hello Joshua,

Are you take a look at the "TabWithEnter" app sample? If so, and they works as expected (like here) maybe we find a limitation on Internet Explorer 10. Do you receive any kind of error information or something like that? I really can't test it in this version of Internet Explorer, and, in fact, everybody must have at least Internet Explorer 11 installed...

P.S. I refer the "TabWithEnter" app sample included by App Builder, no the attached in this thread: they can work, of course, but I refer in particular to the "TabWithEnter" included app sample.

Hello Joshua,

Where you place the action? In the view's "Show" event, don't you? Are you updated AB? Are trying with the "Database" included sample? Are you sure the "[Height]" variable is really available? The action works here, so, must work in your case too!

Hello Samuel,

Sure. Just post any kind of problems in order to try to help you. And good evening for you too sir! :)

Hello Samuel,

You say something that got my attention: you say some app you view in some way in the debugger appear different in a mobile device... first of all, give attention to my previous post... if that do not solve the problem, please, refer the problem here it in the support forum (open a new thread better) so we can try to help.

Certainly it's quite rare than the debugger "look" differs too much on other browsers or platforms: finally we are talking about HTML5 apps, and they must looks very very similar in all modern mobile and desktop browsers, just like you can see in the AB samples like the Calculator one... and the others.

Hello Samuel,

Please ask here for help anytime you need. I am not sure, but, what is the size in which you are developing the app? I say, by default, App Builder uses a 320x480 pixels size. This is because the applications scales better from smaller to larger. So (and maybe it's not your case) if you use a more larger size when design the app, then the application may do not scale very well in smaller screen devices.

In fact there is not only a way to get an application responsive, becase we can use CSS media queries, the "SetStyle" action, the app's "scale" and "fixed" styles/options, app's events like "Resize", depends also on the app's controls, if we can use pure HTML (so we can use grid rows and columns provided by Bootstrap CSS -used in App Builder, we have all the framework CSS classes availables), etc., etc. So, if you have ANY question, don't fight... just ask here and we will try to help. :)

Hello Samuel,

Maybe an HTML Content control can be more convenient here than a label? Please, take a look at this sample, maybe can be good for you. Look at the app's "Inline CSS" option for the required CSS.

Hello Joshua,

Please forget my previous post and upgrade your AB copy:

2017.44 (06/01/2017)

* A recently changed causes that the SetViewSize action cannot be used in modal views (we must use the SetStyle action instead). This release fix this unexpected behaviour and now we can continue using the SetViewSize even in modal views.

Hello Joshua,

I use 'ShowDialog '

Math "[App.InnerHeight]-50" "[Height]"<br>SetViewSize "200px" "[Height]px"

but only the view's height is changed ,the width seems not work

Due to certain recent enhancement we can't use the "SetViewSize" action on modal views anymore. Instead of it we can use the "SetStyle" action instead:

* The above code is used in the AboutView of the App Builder's Database app sample.

** The change that I talking about is refered in the program's history file (Menu -> Help -> History):

2017.42 (05/25/2017)

* The global app's variable [App.CurrentView] is no more modified by modal views, that is, when we show a view in a modal way (using the "ShowDialog" action) that view do not modify the [App.CurrentView] variable. If we needed, we can continue using the [App.DialogView] global app's variable, which contains the current view showing as modal.

Hello Joshua,

Ok,I will update AB later
For the size of Attachment,...maybe the upload file's size limit for this forum should set a little up...,
even I compress the avi file to rar ,still more than 3M,and still can not upload

Please, upgrade your copy, not only because this problem maybe is solved, but because other lot of changes, fixes and enhancements, as you can see in the program's history file (Menu -> Help -> History).

On the other hand you have reason, the attachment limits may apply in this case... that's ok. I receive the file without problems, so maybe it's good to maintain some reasonable limits here! :)

Hello Joshua,

I can figure out what the problem is, however, I can't reproduce it here... Since I view you are using an old release of App Builder, please, upgrade it to the very latest version, so we can know if the problem has been solved or what.

Hello Joshua,

While the Attachment is larger than 4M,can not upload here,
So I send you a email
It's a Avi file of reproducing the 'problem Joshua'....

I receive your video right now. Thanks for that. Please, let me to take a look and I will inform you about.

P.S. Other time compress the video file into a zip one in order to upload here if you wanted. :)

Hello Joshua,

Various things to consider here! First of all, I can't reproduce the problem with the steps you refer... or I try it in the wrong way. But I can imagine what the problem can be... however, probably Firerfox is not related sir, since they are "out of the scope" of App Builder. If the problem is really anoying for you (I work with AB every day with a large application and not experiment any problem, well... I try to fix it everytime I find one, as you can see in the program's history file), please, and, for the love of God, can you provide here a video capture? Then I can try again try reproduce the problem Joshua and then try to fix it! Sorry for all possible inconveniences.

Hello Joshua,

I am sorry, but, I can't reproduce a problem like that here with the provided information: I commonly open more than one app, working on it, etc. So can you reproduce the error? What steps I must follow in order to try to reproduce it here?

Hello Samuel,

+100 ;) Thank you David :)

Please, upgrade your AB copy. The samples dialog editbox filter in the current release searchs now also for the samples file names in addition with the samples description or design comment. Always thanks you Samuel!
