  • 1.  Change user screen header (footer)

    Posted Feb 27, 2015 06:41 AM

    Hello,

    please I am creating user screen in SYNON and I am trying to change header of screen (red marked area on attached screenshot header.png).

    But if I press SHIFT+F5, I can choose which display screen format I want to work with and subfile control and subfile record are OK, I can do changes here.

    But for header and footer, I can see only list of objects here, but without any option to edit (attached screenshot edit.png).

    Please is there any way how to edit header and footer of screen?

    Thanks.

    Aye  (A northumbrian way of saying 'yes')

     

    While the screen is showing the display you captured - that is, you are editing the positions of fields etc,  Press F3

     

    you get to this screen(view with a fixed font)

     

    The screen title in the centre is the name which appears on the screen. - alter it, press enter, and go back to the screen.

     

    If need to do clever stuff like dynamically altering the title, or moving the date around and so on, you need to look into the Headers and footers on the *Standard header/footer  file.  That's always interesting and fun.
