Hi to everyone

I'm trying to use 'Tile Menu Style using Datawindow Object' on a server client project
 
https://community.appeon.com/index.php/articles-blogs/tips-tricks-techniques-articles/17-powerbuilder/263-tile-menu-style-using-datawindow-object )
 
When I click with the mouse on a tile, how do I know wich row I'm clicking?
I need to read column values. 
 
Thank you early for the answer

string ls_1, ls_2
long li_tab
integer li_1, li_2, li_resto, li_riga
string ls_filtro
string  ls_prodinfo
ls_prodinfo = getobjectatpointer()
li_tab = Pos(ls_prodinfo, "~t", 1)
ls_1 = Left(ls_prodinfo, li_tab - 1)
ls_2 = Mid(ls_prodinfo, li_tab + 1)

li_resto = ( mod ( dec(ls_2) , ii_colonne) )
if li_resto <> 0 Then
 li_resto  = ii_colonne - ( mod ( dec(ls_2) , ii_colonne) )
end if
li_2 = dec(ls_2) + li_resto

li_riga = ( li_2 / ii_colonne ) - 1
li_riga = ( li_riga * ii_colonne )+ dec(mid(ls_1, 3, 99))

is_titolo = getitemstring(li_riga, 'tilename')
ls_filtro = "titolo = '"+(is_titolo)+"'"
 
 
 
 
 
NB: where ii_colonne is the number of columns for row

Hi Gimmy;

  Have you tried using the GetObjectAtPointer() command?

It returns you the object name + row number

HTH

Hi Gimmy;

Depending on your DW Type and display settings* - that could be correct.

* - Tabular DW type with N-Up preview (columns across)

- Nu-Up DW type with # columns across

- etc
