AA Using a Custom List Control to Navigate the Current Record in a Data Bound UX Component
UXL_V12--38 Alpha Five V12 UX Custom list record navigator Part 1 to 3
When a UX component has been 'Data Bound' you can navigate from record to record by clicking on navigation buttons, or (optionally) by moving the pointer in a slider control, or by clicking on a row in a special List control that shows the primary keys that were retrieved in the server-side 'Load Primary Keys' action.
When you configure the server-side action to load the primary keys for the table to which the UX has been bound, you can optionally specify that a List control should be shown where the user can see the primary key values and then click on a row in the list to fetch a particular record. This List control is a special 'system generated' list and it does not offer the full range of features that the standard List control offers.
In this video we show how a custom List control can be configured to act as a record navigator and how this custom List can be used in place of the system generated 'record navigation list'. (Note: Before running the component you will need to edit the connection string and point to the sample Northwind database.)
