Hi again!

I would like to know if there is a way to detect a "hide or close pop-up" event; because i would like to set a certain button state every time a concrete pop-up is close (and it could be closed through many buttons).

Many thanks to all and salutes!

    Tie the "close" button to an event and track it with a variable.

    I don't use page feedback in my code, but this could be a way to go as well.

    Another thing you can consider is the little used string output port available to you in TPDesign. Find the ways to close or hide the pop-up and have the button press send you a string on the port YOU specify. Track the strings (your own syntax protocal here) through a data event for the port you specify and flag away.

    When the panel does online, send it a TPAGEON command in the online event. This will make sure page tracking is on. Then monitor the STRING event for the panel. When a popup comes on, it will generate a string that will say 'PPN-'<page name>, and when it goes off it will be PPF instead of PPN. All string events are on the panel's port 1.

    Thanks to all!

    I were looking for something like DHawthorne said, because i considered catching the "close" events through all the buttons that closes the pop-up, but the problem is that they are many, and i think that it is "cleaner" catching the event just through the pop-up than through all the buttons.

    But like i said, many thanks to all!!!!!!

    Salutes!

    That was the other alternative I was alluding to - just didn't know the TPAGEON command would initiate it. That would probably be the *easiest* way. Learn something new everyday!
