About Lists in the User Interface

A list consists of multiple records, presented as rows. Each record consists of multiple fields. You can select a record in a list by clicking any field in the record. This causes the record to be highlighted and adds an active record indicator to the left of the record. If the field you click is editable, it will go into edit mode and you can enter a value. An example of the active record indicator is shown in Figure 4-10; a list is shown in Figure 4-11.

About Vertical Scroll Bars in Lists

Use vertical scroll bars to navigate between records in a list. Vertical scroll bars appear to the right of lists that contain more rows than can fit on the screen. Using the vertical scroll bar you can navigate to the next record, the next record set, the previous record, or the previous record set, depending on the button you click. Figure 4-12 shows an example of a vertical scroll bar. Table 4-4 describes the vertical scroll bar buttons.

Note:

A scroll bar will appear if the number of records returned exceeds the maximum records that can be displayed in a list. Once the Siebel application identifies that there are no more records, the scroll bar will be removed.

About Horizontal Scroll Bars in Lists

Horizontal scroll bars appear at the bottom of lists that contain more columns than can fit on the screen. Use the horizontal scroll bar to move through all the columns currently being displayed.

About Show More and Show Less Buttons in Lists

Every list has a show more button or a show less button in the top right corner. Clicking the show more or show less button allows you to see more or fewer records.

When a list is collapsed, you can click the show more button to expand it, as shown in Figure 4-13. When a list is expanded, you can click the show less button to collapse it, as shown in Figure 4-14.
