Search Results for 'script'

[Yutaka Kitamura]

I’m using Cloud+, but synchronization is sometimes incomplete.
Records are created, but data is sometimes not copied.
Clicking a field triggers synchronization.
Changes made via script are sometimes not synchronized.
After synchronization, the form icon sometimes reverts to the default.
Linked records may not appear in the link field.
The link itself is working.
Sometimes the record does not switch to the newly created record. (Since ver 1.0.15 or earlier)
Even after modifying the data, the list view does not visually sort. (Since ver 1.0.15 or earlier)

I’m not sure if this is the right place to be asking a subscription question but my guess is there will be a number of you have had the same question.

I have just upgraded from 5 to Pro. With 5 I was able to have Taps 5 installed on both my wife’s machine and my own using my registration number.

Now, however, my license has come through the App Store and is thus tied to my Apple ID and my wife’s machine is tied to her Apple ID.

Does this mean that now I will need to subscribe to two separate licenses tied to, our separate IDs?

Please understand this is absolutely not a moan. If I need to I’m more than happy to take another license ……………… but if I don’t I’ll be happier still!

Hi Michael,

If your data is in a form, you can use saved searches and filter for your condition. This way, only the relevant records are shown. When you look at them in multi-column list view, you can get your total costs.

Sometimes, I write scripts for reporting and display the result in an external browser.

Cheers, Daniel

Grüezi,

Thanks for the code snippet, I’ll try it out later, including your ScriptHandler. By the way, while we’re on the topic of scripts, there might be a translation error in the German version. In the script overview, there’s a section with the little gear icon… it says “move to document,” but there is no “document” in the German overview. I think it should say “favorites,” and under “favorites” it should then say “switch to Formular.” I think the translation isn’t quite correct here.

Nice Week

Steve

You could try with following code snippet. Just add this at the beginning of your script. It adds the fetchRecordsWithMatch() function to the form object and presumably does a similar (or better?) thing than fetchRecordsForSearchTerm():

// form.fetchRecordsWithMatch
// Returns all records where the specified field matches the given value.
CDForm.prototype.fetchRecordsWithMatch = function(field_id, value){
    return this.fetchRecords().filter(x => x.getFieldValue(field_id) == value);
}

And then instead of var auswahlRecoredsMonatsuersicht = formularMonatsuebersicht.fetchRecordsForSearchTerm('2026', feldJahrID); use var auswahlRecoredsMonatsuersicht = formularMonatsuebersicht.fetchRecordsWithMatch(feldJahrID, '2026');

This will return a record where all records are an extract match. This is what I have in my TF API Extensions script.

Viel Spass!

Hi everyone,

Sorry to follow up again here,

I’m trying to load a dataset that I retrieve using fetchRecordsForSearchTerm('2026', feldJahrID). Unfortunately, there doesn’t seem to be any filtering happening at all. No matter what I enter as the search string, I almost always get nearly all records back.

If I search for “1”, I get 4 records. With “12” or “123”, I get 2 records. If I use “2”, I also get 4 records. Searching for “202” returns 4 records, and with “203” I get 3 records.

Either I completely misunderstand how the function works—in which case I apologize, because then, as usual, the problem is sitting between the keyboard and the chair—or something is definitely not working correctly here.

Thanks in advance for any information.

Steve

Hi Fernando,

I think that might be an iOS 26 issue. Script ordering is in both Tap Forms 5 and Tap Forms Pro on iOS, but for some reason it’s not working for me in either version. I’m on iOS 26.2.

I’ll take a look into it in Tap Forms Pro to figure out why it’s not working.

Thanks for bringing this to my attention.

Brendan

[Fernando Duran]

Hello Brendan,

I am writing to you again about the issue of script ordering in Tap Forms. I have many, with all kinds of reports, and in Tap Forms 5 with my iPhone I have no problem ordering them.

But it’s a feature you haven’t introduced in the new Pro. And it is very necessary for me. I guess I won’t be the only one this happens to.

I don’t have a Mac, which is very expensive in my country, so I can’t do it from my computer.

For this reason alone I continue using Tap Forms 5, although I want to switch to the Pro, but not having this utility that I use so much is making me delay it.

For all of these, I would greatly appreciate it if you included this issue in an upcoming Pro update.

Thank you very much and greetings.

Hi Patrick,

I’ve been using a helper script for a year or two so I can use fractions in my woodworking forms. Your post finally motivated me to bundle everything together in an example form and document how to use it.

Here’s the link: https://lab.danielleu.com/tapformspro/tips-tricks/index.html?p=Using-fractions

Hope this helps!

Cheers, Daniel

var copyRecords = document.getFormNamed('Form 1').fetchRecords();

Check the API docs for Tap Forms Pro:

Hello everyone,

sorry I’m giving up. What I’m trying to do is simple. I have a form, wich is not linked, and I want to get the records to do searches in it.

According to everything I found this is done Very easy:

var copyRecords = document.getFormNames(‘form1’).getRecords();

when I try this, get an Error

TypeError: copyDummy.getRecords is not a function. (In 'copyDummy.getRecords()', 'copyDummy.getRecords' is undefined), line:(null)

my next try was to separate it:
var copyForm = document.getFormNamed(‘form1’);
var copyRecords = copyForm.getRecords();
same Error

going through the javascript doku on the support page I found

var copyRecords = document.getFormWithId(form1_id);

but I can not find a possibility to loop the records.

I think I’m thinking something wrong here but I do not get what.

Thanks for all hints

[Daniel Leu]

That’s something I have been thinking about for a while. The issue is that Evernote contains unstructured data whereas with TFP, data is structured.

If you have just a description of your sewing patterns and a photo or two, then that would be much easier than my mix of tables, list, images, etc. A photo attachment field can contain more than one image. So one field is enough.

There are several online tools that convert enex files to CVS or Markdown. I haven’t looked at them so far.

For me, I’ll most likely use a Markdown format so I can continue the format I’m used to. The issue I have is the photo tag which doesn’t work directly inside TFP, but works using an external browser as a display. Maybe I’ll find a solution one day.

Good luck!

Cheers, Daniel

Database scripts don’t exist. You can have form or field scripts. A form script can be made accessible to other form views by classifying it as a document script.

For the API calls, I would try to tell ChatGPT that this is for Tap Forms Pro and not Tap Forms 5. Maybe it will then use the proper functions (eg, fetchXXX() instead of getXXX()). You can find the API documentation over at https://www.tapforms.com/help-mac/pro/en/topic/javascript-api.

I was trying CHATgpt to generate a script to list the properties of the forms im my database.
The form below is the output of CHATgpt.

when I try rund the script the following error appears:

2/1/26, 11:47:40 AM / Property / listAllFormPropertaiesDB
listAllFormPropertaiesDB: TypeError: document.getForms is not a function. (In ‘document.getForms()’, ‘document.getForms’ is undefined),
line:(null)

CHATgpt says this script should be a DATABASE script, not a FORM script, but I can find no way to create a Database script or to move tghis
script to become a Database Script. Is there such a way?

function listAllFormPropertiesDB() {

var output = [];
var forms = document.getForms();

for (var f of forms) {

output.push(“==================================================”);
output.push(“FORM NAME : ” + f.getName());
output.push(“FORM ID : ” + f.getID());
output.push(“RECORDS : ” + f.getRecords().length);
output.push(“FIELDS : ” + f.getFields().length);
output.push(“”);

var fields = f.getFields();

for (var fld of fields) {

var line = [];
line.push(” Field Name : ” + fld.getName());
line.push(” Field ID : ” + fld.getID());
line.push(” Type : ” + fld.getType());

if (fld.isCalculationField())
line.push(” Calc : YES”);

if (fld.isScriptField())
line.push(” Script : YES”);

if (fld.isTableField())
line.push(” Table : YES”);

output.push(line.join(” | “));
}

output.push(“”);
}

return output.join(“\n”);
}

listAllFormPropertiesDB();

Hello everyone,

I think I’ve found an error in the grouping function of the records.

When you open the “Zimmer” form in my database and set the value to 1 under form details at Other / Single-column list view fields, and then choose no restriction for the fields to be displayed, the list shows the field to be sorted as the main heading — in my case, the name of the apartment — and below that the floor. After that, an empty line appears and then a dash indicating that a new entry follows.

So far, everything is fine.

However, if you then set Other / Single-column list view fields to 2 in the detail settings and reload the overview, the following is shown:
The main heading with the field to be sorted
The name of the apartment
The floor
<the empty line that previously separated everything together with the dash from the next record>
The room description
<the dash separating the next record>

Is this intended behavior? Especially in “dark mode”, the empty line above the dash is very helpful for visually separating the records from each other.

I wish you all a wonderful weekend.
