Panel callbacks

Status: Completed

At present, the only option to jump to a panel callback is Ctrl-P shortcat from the UIR editor (or Code >> View >> Panel callback menu selection). Even longer is to generate a panel callback, which can only be done via Code >> Generate >> Panel callback menu chain.

 

I'd like to have added two options to panel context menu in the UIR editor: Generate Panel Callback and View Panel Callback, in the same way as those options are present in a control context menu; something like this:

This says it was completed, but I don't see the option to generate panel callback in the context menu. Am I just missing something?

This option is located in the context menu for panels in the User interface Browser (upper-right of the workspace view):

Not very handy: I'm not accustomed to the browser so I'm still using the menu option to generate/view panel callbacks. My original suggestion was more evident and on the line with what we are used to do with controls: right-click, generate... maybe it can be improved in a future release Smiley Wink

 

But seriously, the UIR browser is present only in the Integrated Workspace View, it is not available in Classic View.

If I were using the Classic view, which I'm not, I'd be glad to have this option available too. At least one could add a shortcut to the menu item: the same Ctrl+G could be used: if a control is selected, generate code for the control, otherwise generate code for the panel.
