Impact of Interactivity Levels
This subsection discusses the effect of different runtime processing environments and modes: HTML (low or high interactivity) or Windows.
This table contrasts the differences:
Grid Type |
Interactivity |
Effect |
---|---|---|
Non-editable |
Low |
Refresh the entire form (including grid control) on Find, Next, and Previous. Display only one page of data in the grid. |
Non-editable |
High |
Refresh only the grid (not the entire form) on Find. Append additional rows and expand the page size on Next. The interface provides a vertical scroll bar. |
Non-editable |
Windows |
Refresh only the grid (not the entire form) on Find. |
Editable |
Low |
Display only one page of data in the grid. Post and refresh behavior depends on whether the Multi-Line Edit option is enabled:
|
Editable |
High |
Expand the page and add a vertical scroll bar to display all rows. Post asynchronously and refresh the grid control at every user action (row exit, column exit, and so forth). Add a new entry row upon user keying into and exiting any cell in the entry row. |
Editable |
Windows |
Expand the page and add a vertical scroll bar to display all rows. Process every user action immediately. Add a new entry row upon user keying into any cell in the entry row. |
For high interactive editable grid, post asynchronously for each cell change.
