Actually, most out-of-the-box grid components out there have pretty poor accessibility across the board - even the ones that claim otherwise. The semantics for tables and grids are relatively complex, and can unexpectedly break due to extra s or CSS display values grids can have some pretty complex keyboard interaction, and good accessibility documentation is scarce the visual layout does not play well with mobile viewports or high levels of zoom most out-of-the-box solutions for things like row selection, sorting, filtering, and virtualization break the screen reader experience. Part of this flood of grid accessibility questions might be caused by a quirk of where I happen to work, but I don't think that's the only reason tables and grids are over-represented in accessibility bugs. Grids are right up there with combobox woes and tooltip mishaps in causing an outsize amount of pain to developers who are trying to get accessibility right. Let me know if you find something interesting.In my day-to-day work, I find myself talking to a lot of people who have a lot of accessibility problems with different tables and grids. Pretty dangerous! What do you think? To avoid this, you need to keep your flow field always ineditable.īut having seen the above incidence, can you think about any scenario, where this particular feature / rather drawback can be very useful? This new entry makes the total 80000.00 (now consistent) ledger entry and you can see a new entry having an amount of 6,190.00. ledger entry’ to adjust the inconsistent data. It simply insert a new entry in ‘Detailed cust. The system will simply will lookout some way to make the data consistent. Navision never allows inconsistent data in flow fields. is your data customer entries become inconsistent? Your customer card is showing a value of 80000.00 whereas your detailed customer ledger entry table have entries of amount 73,810.00 only. Right now, the calculated amount (coming from Detailed Cust. Once this is done, the textbox displaying ‘Balance ( LCY)’ in Customer card will become editable and you can put new amount in this field. Select the field > Properties > Editable > Yes Let’s make the ‘Balance (LCY)’ field editable in Customer table. In Customer card, the textbox control is already editable and it is inheriting the ‘Editable = No’ property of the field from the customer tables. Say we will make ‘Balance (LCY)’ field in Customer card editable and test it. You can change it to ‘No’ and see whether this field is anymore displaying the Vendor Balances or not. You will find, the AutoCalcField property is set to ‘TRUE’ by default. To check it out, open the Vendor card (form 26) in design mode and go to the property of the field “Balance ( LCY)”. If you turn it to ‘No’, the control simply will not calculate the flow field value automatically. Why we don’t really notice them? Because ‘Yes’ is the default value for this property. In other words, you can change this property in those controls whose source expression is a flow field. This simple property is related to any control onto a form or a report which displays a flow field. Do you know why system behaves like this? Just because of the property ‘ AutoCalcField‘. You all know that if you display a flow field onto a form or a report, the system calculates the flow field value automatically and displays it. Today we will start with ‘ AutoCalcField‘
#TAGFLOW VS TABLES SERIES#
In this series of posts, we will try to under few of them. You would have been amazed knowing some of the properties which you use quite regularly but never bothered about knowing them. Some of them are complex but most of them are simple and we simply unknowingly use them. There are so many properties and functions available in Navision that its impossible to learn them completely in few years.
