Custom Layout Update Problem

[Alan Hayman]

Hi, Brendan,
Congratulations on the release of Tap Forms Pro. I’ve installed it on my Mac and successfully migrated my data and custom layout over to it. I’m not installing it on my iOS devices until I get the migrated version of my database working.
I’m having an issue with my database.
I set up my form with a multi-column list view on top and a custom layout on the bottom. I have several saved searches in my form. In Tap Forms 5, when I would click on one of the saved searches, the list view would display all the records satisfying the saved search criteria, and the custom layout would display the information from the first record in the list. When I would click on another one of the records in the list view, or scroll down to another record, the custom layout would display the information for selected record.
In Tap Forms Pro, this is not working. When I click on a saved search, the list view displays all the records satisfying the saved search criteria as it did in Tap Forms 5, but the custom layout does not update to display the information for any of the records in the list. Clicking on any of the records does not update the information in the custom layout. Is this a bug, or is there something I should be doing that I’m missing?
Thanks!

Hi Alan,

Can you please try re-launching Tap Forms Pro? I just tested this issue and it’s working ok for me.

Thanks,

Brendan

Hi Brendan,
Here’s what’s happening:
In Tap Forms 5, if I am in one group of records after having done a saved search, and I click on one of the records, its information is displayed in the custom layout. Then if I do second saved search, the information for the first record in the newly found group is automatically displayed in the custom layout.
In Tap Forms Pro, if I do a second saved search, the custom layout still displays the information from the last record that I clicked on in the previous saved search. If I click on the first record in the newly found group, the information in the custom layout is not updated. Then, if I click on the second record, the information for that record is now displayed in the custom layout, and then I can click on any record in the newly found group, including the first record, and the information for that record will be displayed in the custom layout. If there is only one record in the newly found “group”, then there is no second record to click on, and there is no way for me to display the information for that record. Strange.
Thanks,
Alan

Hi Alan,

I’m trying to get a new update through Apple App Store review that should solve this problem. There was a glitch that could sometimes show the wrong record data on the list view from what’s displayed on the details view. But I fixed that.

It has been in review since yesterday and I suspect they’re going to reject it as they already have once.

Thanks,

Brendan

Hi Brendan,
I just updated to Version 1.04, and this problem is still there.
Maybe it will be fixed in Version 1.05 . . .
Thanks,
Alan
