Defining a Header/Title for a Form
Rules for defining header for a form.
To define headers/titles for your forms:
- Use the
HeaderName
parameter in theShowForm
action, to display any special header as the form's header. For further details, see HeaderName.The header is then also used as title if the form is displayed in a tab.
- When displaying forms in a tab you can define a
pageTitle
attribute for the entire form. This attribute is only used if noHeaderName
is specified in the action. - Alternatively you can use the
pageTitle
parameter in theShowForm
action.pageTitle
is only used ifHeaderName
is undefined. ThepageTitle
action parameter overrides thepageTitle
attribute defined in the form. - When displaying forms in a popup (without using the
ShowForm
action), you can add aHeader
widget to your form and check theupdatePopupTitle
parameter. The header is then displayed in the popup's title bar. - If no header is found (and
pageTitle
undefined), the label of the button or menu item that called form is used as tab/popup title, see the article “How to Set the Title of a Tab” at https://support.aurea.com.
