Message Form as Hover Form

The message form may also contain the context-based information, which is displayed when you click the hover indicator in the hover supported JD Edwards EnterpriseOne controls.

With Release 9.2.1, power browse forms can be used as hover forms instead of message forms. See "Understanding Power Browse Forms" in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Tools Form Design Aid Guide.

This hover form appears around the control.

The hover form may contain context-based information about the Address Book Number, Item Number and so on. Also, the hover from may contain card information about the Address Book Number.

The hover form closes when you move the mouse cursor away from the control or grid cell. You can also use the Close button on the hover form.

Note: The hover form does not appear on the empty control or space and error form controls and grid cells.

You see an orange "dot" indicator at the top left corner of the control, if the hover form is associated with the control. Hovering on the orange "dot" will change it into a checkable indicator. Click on the indicator to display the hover form.

The hover form may contain a tab called Collaborate. See Accessing Send Email and Meeting Invite options from Data Dictionary items in this guide.

You can enable or disable the hover form using the Preferences window from the Personalization drop-down menu at the user level. Select or deselect the Enable Hover Forms option in the Preferences window.

Also, your system administrator can enable or disable the hover form at the system level in the JAS.ini file or in Server Manager.

See "Understanding Hover Forms" in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Tools Runtime Administration Guide.

The hover form association is supported on form level controls and also on the grid. For example, Edit Control, Check Box, Combo Box, Associated Text Images, Radio Buttons, Text Block, and Grid Cell all support the hover form.
