Detail Data display

[Johnnyg248]

I was looking at the tv finder app 

Please refer to navigation.docx attachment

if a product on the tv finder sheet,  a sheet is displayed with details

If adjust filters the "main" sheet is redisplayed

I am trying to replicate this functionality in the Data_Dashboard_new.qvw  I attached.

Right now I have a separate sheet for details

However , can't seem  to follow how this is being done in tv finder app

Can someone  please help?

if your challenge is how to move from tab to tab, the tv app is using text boxes with action.
first go to document properties and unclick HIDE tab row, this will allow you to observe the tabs/sheets:

then go to sheet Details, inspect the properties of the text ADJUST FILTERS, you will see in the actions tab the command to switch tabs:

which brings it back

clicking product details switches the tab to the details tab:

Hi Edwin 

Thanks so much for the response!

conceptually it makes sense ... think I am just missing a step or 2

here is a bit more detail of what I am hoping my app will do

right now when I open my app  a list is displayed

If I click a checkbox next to a row, only that row displays and a view details button displays

Right now, if I click the view details button a separate details sheet is displayed

I was hoping to have it work like the tv finder works

it looks like the main sheet just displays the details

When Return to Main button (will change text to something like adjust filters)  is clicked, the display returns to

I have attached my app

i think i understand where you are coming from.  you want the impression that the user didnt really switch tabs and is just in the main page.  its a slight of hand that can be done by QV developers.  what the TV APP did was create two tabs that look almost the same, switch tabs and the user knows no better.

again, if you show the tabrows, the Main page is this:

the details tab is this:

so without showing the tabs, the developer made it appear the user was still on the same tab/page.  so what he/she actually did was just made the upper portion of the tabs the same and hid the tab rows.

makes sense.

Thanks!
