Fields with Pushbuttons, Actions, and IconsLocate this document in the navigation structure

In the fields of a list various function elements can be embedded: pushbuttons, actions, and icons.

Pushbuttons_Icons_Actions

  • A pushbutton is a graphical element with which a function is always connected. If a pushbutton is clicked at runtime, an event is triggered automatically.
  • On the other hand, an action enhances a simple table field to a field with a clickable function ('link to action'). A simple click on such a table field then leads to the triggering of an event. If an action was implemented for a table field, the content of the field is then shown highlighted.
  • An icon is a graphical element (for example, a traffic light symbol) that does not have any action function of its own. However, it can be given an additional text (tooltip).
Note Like every other table field, an icon can also be linked with an action and can be enhanced in this way to a clickable field.
