Positioning Buttons
You can position the display order of buttons on the form. For example, you might want the first button to display the Picture window.
The number of task flow navigation buttons that can be displayed on a window varies from window to window. If there are too many navigation options for them all to appear as buttons, the last button on the window is called Other and it displays a list of values containing the other navigation options.
You determine the navigation options available from a window by defining transitions to other windows in the Process Diagrammer. Now you can use the activity attributes Display Button 1..4 to specify which navigation options should display as buttons and the order in which they should appear.
To position buttons:
1. Display the process in the Oracle Workflow Process Diagrammer.
2. Select the activity by choosing Edit - Properties. (You can also double click on Edit - Properties to select it).
3. Select the Attribute Values tab frame.
4. Enter the name of the window you want this button to display for the Display Button 1 attribute.
For example, if you want the first button to display the Picture window, enter F4 Enter Picture. If the window is the parent window then the <Parent> special connection value can be specified.
5. Repeat step 4 for the attributes Display Button 2 .. 4. If you do not want a button to appear on the window, enter the value <Null>.
For example, if you only want three buttons to be displayed, enter <Null> as the value for Display Button 4.
