Hi all!
When working with the MiniCRM tutorial I was asking me if I can have a page containing a form?
Starting with a "Company Table Page" followed by a "Company Details Node Page" containing "Person Table Page" and when selecting a person here, can I open a child page with a "Person Form" to edit the person's data? Opening a form as a dialog window is easy...
I tried with an AbstractPage disabling the table and setting a detail form but wasn't successful. Is this the right direction to investigate or the completely wrong way?
If I understood your question correctly, you have an Outline based application.
When the page is selected in the page tree in the main window, you want to open this form.
Is this instead of the TablePage or NodePage content (on the left) ? In this case, having a kind of AbstractPageWithForm is a good idea.
Or do you want to open a second form (like the search form at the bottom of the page content) ? In this case, you can use a "page with node" or "page with table" and use one of the event (exec****()) to display the additional Form as view.

Hi!
Thank you both for answering. Got it working easily with this information. Especially thanks to Claudio for the clearifying background information in the wiki.
