Problem with loaction of a Button

badoqu

Hi everyone,

I am adding a button to the "Sales Opportunity" document. And I want it to be placed next to the button "Realted activities".

But what I am getting instead is that my button is at the right vertical alignement but not good with horizontal alignement.

I show you some screenshot to explain.

Here is my code:

private void oppLoad(SwissAddonFramework.UI.EventHandling.ItemEvents.FormLoad fl)
        {
            Button btn_act = Button.CreateNew("btn_act");
            Button oBtn = Button.GetFromUID(fl.Form,"78");
            btn_act.Value = "Nouvelle activité";
            btn_act.Top = oBtn.Top;
            btn_act.Width = 115;
            btn_act.Height = oBtn.Height;
            btn_act.Left = oBtn.Left - btn_act.Width -5;
           
            fl.Form.AddItem(btn_act);        
            fl.Form.Update();
         }

i dont know the coresuite button type

but the sap item has a linkto value

sap likes to move items around in the form if there is no linkto value

something like

btn_act.linkto=obtn.uniqueid

helps

There is also the linkTo attribute is coresuite Button.

I added the line:

Button btn_act = Button.CreateNew("btn_act");
            Button oBtn = Button.GetFromUID(fl.Form,"78");
            btn_act.RightJustified = true;
            btn_act.Value = "Nouvelle activité";
            btn_act.Top = oBtn.Top;
            btn_act.Width = 115;
            btn_act.LinkTo = oBtn.UniqueID;
            btn_act.Left = oBtn.Left - btn_act.Width;
           
            fl.Form.AddItem(btn_act);        
            fl.Form.Update();

But it still doesn't work :s

The problem is not solved but I added a handler "onResize" on the Form and set again the location of the button.

It is workin in most of case, except if the user resize the form to a very small width.

That is how I do it as well. Place all my control properties on the resize method, and then it works.
