Form closing icon (X) presentation also for inactive forms [message #1811147]

Hi,
In my Eclipse Scout application I have many forms with:

      @Override
	protected int getConfiguredDisplayHint() { 
	    return IForm.DISPLAY_HINT_VIEW;
	}
	
	@Override
	protected boolean getConfiguredClosable() {
		return true;
	}

But the form closing icon (X) is only displayed on the one, active form in application desktop, not for all open forms at the same time.

Can this be changed to make this icon also appear on inactive forms?

Hi Krzysztof

Currently there's no way to activate the "X" for closable forms on inactive forms.

However, there's a context-menu (right click) that allows to close all tabs or all other tabs (see attachment).

If you're brave you could try to make some adjustments on Scout's JavaScript/CSS framework code. You could disable this CSS rule here ".simple-tab.closable .closer" - which hides the "X" for inactive tabs. Now you can close inactive tabs, but I'm not sure if this has any side-effects.
