aXes User Forum

Hi,

axes 4.2 has the new feature "Choreographer". I tried this functionality and have two questions:

1. How can I prevent that all the screens that are on the way to the final destinations will be shown? I suppose this feature is very helpful but daiplaying all those screens is a little bit annoying for the end user.
2. When I leave the final destination screen (e.g. by pushing F3) I want to return into the calling screen. How can this be reached?

Many thanks in advance and best regards,
Joerg

Hi,

If the user press F3 in the screen, the onLeave event is activated for the Screen, in extensions.

You could record the steps to get out in a choreographer sequence, save it like LeaveOrder then put an EXECUTECHOREONAME("LeaveOrder"); on the onLeave event.

Hi Dino,
thank you for this information. This is really a good possibility and I did not think about this before.

But I see the problem that one destination screen can be linked with different starting points.
Let's say we have 3 screens (A, B, C) and from every of those 3 screens we make a choreographer sequence to screen D.
Now I need to know from which starting point screen D was activated - and I have to create a sophisticated java script to travel back to A, B or C.

I suppose something like that can only be realized by using lots of USERENV variables, but I would prefer that aXes does this itself in an automatic process - considering the hundreds (if not thousands) of screens and possible links we have in our own ERP system.

Cheers,
Joerg
