How to get a pop up window in a application

[shankar]

I want to get a pop up window in my application when some action is performed. I have tried from application designer by editing the edit dialog box where do i need to associate these dialog box to get it poped up.Is there any other way to get the popup window in application other than throwing applicationException bcoz exception suspends the code. plz suggest me a proper way to get a pop up window in my application

[Ethen]

you can edit the application xml..
there u give the event name for which pop up (dialog box) will come out..

apart from event name u define the dialog box structure and elements in application xml..


after changing application xml u need to add signature option for same event...


hope it helps..

Shankar,

Did you try utility.messagebox from the bean........... That will give you a pop up window without throwing the exception...

The message that you display will come from maxmessages which has the options column. This option has integer value which perform different actions. I dont remember correctly but these integers will decide what buttons the pop up will have.
Ex: Ok, cancel, No..

Based on these buttons even the event can be captured and certain actions can also be performed.

just go through the following link.. this might help....

hi vijet,

              thank you for ur help,but my requiremet is i need to get a pop window from where i can select a value and the same value need to set to the field.
 for example we have a field in the application say status when i click on these field i should get a pop window where i can get option like new operating and decomissoned i should be able to select one value say operating these value should b set to the status field.


i have tried by clicking on the edit dialog and edited thedialog box but iam not sure where i need to associate it did u get my question plz looking forward for ur help

what you are describing in your example with the status sounds like a standard Maximo lookup and NOT a dialog. If you create a domain whether that is ALN, NUM or Table domain and associate this with the attribute in question and give the control in app designer a lookup Maximo will open a "dialog" from which the user can select a value like status when he clicks the hour glass
