Is there any code that can select/open a Global Table?

[ FlexSim 19.1.0 ]

I'm developing a GUI using the dashboard part, so I want to add a custom code that opens a Global table each time the user presses a button.

[Matthew_Gillespie · Accepted solution]

applicationcommand("edittable", Model.find("MODEL:/Tools/GlobalTables/GlobalTable1"));

[manuel_s4]

As ALWAYS it worked. Thanks Matt!!

Another question Matt, is there a similar code to open the Time Tables view?

[Matthew_Gillespie]

treenode timeTable = Model.find("Tools/TimeTables/TimeTable1");
createview("VIEW:/pages/tools/TimeTable Parameters", timeTable.getPath(), timeTable.getPath());

Great! Thanks again Matt!

Hi Mr. Matthew, Im encountered error msg when using this code: applicationcommand("edittable", Table(""));

Flexscript Error VIEW:/active/GUI testing1054953478/button>OnPress line 1 The function Table is not recognized.

Why?

[Matthew_Gillespie]

@Tay L I don't understand what you're trying to do. Table("") doesn't do anything. You have to put the name of the table you want in the Table() constructor. But you should really use my example above which works best.

applicationcommand("edittable", Model.find("MODEL:/Tools/GlobalTables/YOUR_TABLE_NAME_HERE"));

This is the error:

If use the code:

The table display NULL, and the error mesage belwo:

Thank you.

@Tay L What version of the software are you using? If you're using an older version you should replace Model.find with model().find

[tay_l]

Im using Flexsim 7.3. After i use model().find, the table shows NULL and error message :

"Flexscript Error VIEW:/active/GUI testing564263746/button>OnPress line 1 The method find is not recognized"

[mischa_spelt]

In FlexSim 7.3 it's

node("MODEL:/Tools/...")

But why are you still using a version of over 7 years old?

[tay_l]

Hi @Mischa Spelt, many thanks. We are using this version, for learning and familiarise the software functions.

Could you share what is the code for sorting and filtering the global table data? For example, I would like to use GUI to find a part name or part number in the Global table.

@Tay L Please post this as a new question and choose 7.3 in the software version dropdown.

@Matthew Gillespie ok Thanks!
