Let’s say you want the user to add only 3 images. But you also want to speed it up using auto re-open in your form view.
Out of the box auto re-open will continue, until the user hits cancel in the form view.
Here is a workaround.
I have a Customer table and an Image table.
View Ref (Customer)
COUNT([Customer].[Related Images])>2
Nice! So the form-save action breaks the ‘Auto re-open’ loop. Great tip, @Fabian ! Thanks for sharing.
I wonder if that’s the case with all action types, or only navigation ones!? What if you want an action to run after every form and NOT break the loop?
This is possible. You can use a Data Change Action. The loop would not break.
You can even use a grouped action as the form saved event.
Here I use a grouped action that
COUNT([Customer].[Related Images])
That’s a very cool trick, thanks for sharing @Fabian !
And: Advance forms automatically is only working with auto re-open, not with navigation actions!
Advance forms automatically is now also working with navigation actions.
